Chapter 580 Conversations In The Offices


    Chapter 580 Conversations in the Offices


    The meeting was over.


    People left the meeting room.


    Henry went back to his office. He hadn''t been so happy in a long time. Bob Simonds and a few other


    board members followed him back to his office. As soon as they closed the door, they smiled evilly.


    "Manuel won''t be able to turn the table no matter how capable he is!" Bob said delightfully, "What the


    hell does he think he is? Increase the turnover by 50% in half a year? It''s a tough task even when


    nothing''s wrong. Now there is a Sway Group, it''ll be a pie in the sky to reach his goal. I''ve made


    inquiries. Sway Group woulde to Kensbury City in a week, tops. ording to their business


    routine, they''ll start by taking up the market by minimizing their profits. They''ll surely take some of the


    market shares from Phillips Bank. To estimate, Phillips won''t have a growth in the turnover in the


    Hearing it, Henry couldn''t be more excited. He thought he could kick Manuel out of Phillips Bank within


    two months.


    "Well, it''s a real coincidence." Bob said with enthusiasm, "For Phillips Bank, Sway Group will surely


    bring us great losses, but there''s alwayspetition in the market and we can''t always take the lead.


    It''ll happen sooner orter. Surprisingly, ites at such a perfect time. I just can''t wait to see Manuel


    be kicked out of the bank. I''m looking forward to it!"


    Compared with Henry, Manuel was an untouchable leader who set firm limits for himself in his tenure,


    while Henry was a smooth one who always yed all sides. Thus, Henry won more favour than Manuel


    among the board.


    "We should take it seriously. Manuel is a real piece of work!" Henry reminded.


    "So what! What can he do at this point?" Bob smiled and said, "Henry, we''ll count on you in the future."


    "We''ll help each other."


    "Look. You''re way too modest..."


    His office was filled with ttering voices, which had excited Henry a lot.


    Now there was a clear n-he would take over Phillips Bank as long as he kicked Manuel out and won


    Edward''s trust again.


    Manuel returned to his office.


    He must admit it was a big challenge for him this time.


    Some time ago, he made a great effort to figure out the operation mode of Phillips Bank and find out


    how he could work to increase the turnover. Indeed, it was hard to carry on with his n now since the


    advent of Sway Bank.


    He needed to keep the existing market shares, which was more difficult for a mature business

    operation. Manuel went absent-minded and didn''t look as calm and cool as he''d appeared at the


    meeting.


    Suddenly, someone knocked at the door. Manuel blinked his eyes slightly and said, "Come in."


    Susan went in.


    They looked at each other, cool as cucumbers.


    "My father sent me for you. He wanted to see us in his office. It''s something important."


    "OK." Manuel nodded.


    After passing her words, Susan turned around to go out, while Manuel wasted no time and stood up to


    catch up. They went in an elevator together. Both of them were quiet as if they were strangers.


    Susan had figured outst night that she was ttering herself when she was caring about how Manuel


    treated her. She should have known her ce. So she looked quite peaceful now.


    The elevator door opened. Then they went into Edward''s office one after the other and sat down in


    front of the office desk.


    "I want to discuss the matter on Sway Bank with the two of you," Edward said in a heavy voice.


    Susan frowned andined, "Just talk to Manuel. I don''t have any opinion on something like this. I


    can''t even understand..."


    "Then learn SOMETHING!" Edward said seriously.


    Susan became upset,ining about Edward''s quick temper at work inside. She was never a girl


    who would just grin and bear it. So she yelled at Edward, "Why must I learn? I didn''t want to work here!


    You made me!"


    "Can''t you just be a little more ambitious? How can I trust and leave thepany to you?"


    "It''s enough that Henry is capable. Right! Why didn''t you send for Henry?" Susan was annoyed.


    Edward was mad because of her words.


    "Why didn''t you send for Henry instead of Manuel? Manuel is not family!"


    "Because I deserve to be trusted more." Manuel cut in.


    "Hell no!" Susan retorted, "He''s here for Phillips Bank only. He wants to have thepany all to


    himself."


    "I would like to see that happen," Edward said bluntly.


    Susan red at Edward.


    "Listen or just get out!" Edward felt helpless, knowing that he could do nothing to alter Susan''s


    personality.


    Susan was about to leave. Anyway, she had never prepared to be part of it in the first ce.


    But she paused her steps when she arrived at the door. She would never know what her father would


    talk about with Manuel if she left like this.


    She was afraid that Edward would just hand the wholepany to Manuel because he was too mad at


    her.


    She no way would let this happen!


    Thinking about it, Susan suddenly turned around and sat down again.


    Edward stared at her in anger.


    "Well, I''m up to nothing. Anyway, I''ll just stay to kill time." Susan said casually.


    Manuel spoke, "I''ve thought about it. If we want to stop Sway Bank from taking up our market shares in


    Northfield, the only, the best and the harmless way is to find their weaknesses and control them."


    Edward was attracted by Manuel''s words and stopped being mad at Susan.


    "Do you have any good ideas?"


    "I know something about them. Normally, it isn''t the best time for them to enter the market of Northfield.


    Since they''re doing it so rashly, I think we should figure out the reasons first."
