    Chapter 365 Solving the Crisis


    When Frank saw that Elspeth was about to break into tears, he stroked her head while feeling sorry for


    her. “There, there. Don’t cry.”


    “Who said I’m crying? Something’s gotten into my eyes,” Elspeth sniffled and refuted with a smile.


    “Alright. Since you’re denying it, there’s nothing else I can say.” Frank shrugged helplessly.


    “So, what crisis is yourpany facing now?” Jordan cut to the chase.


    At the mention of herpany, Elspeth felt sorrowful.


    “Severalpanies imed that our products were not up to standard and ended their coborations


    with us. As such, we owe them 50 million now. Moreover, all thepanies in Damoria have stopped


    working with us. Now, our finances are in the red.”


    An agitated Frank snapped, saying, “Those useless guys are probably the Alphascape Group’s


    “Yourpany is in trouble, but Callum still isn’t willing to help you. It seems that your rtionship with


    him has failed the test of time,” Jordan said all of a sudden.


    Elspeth hung her head low and replied calmly, “There’s nothing between us anymore.”


    Jordan thought that he might have saddened Elspeth, so he stopped talking about it. He then consoled


    her by saying, “Alright. Just get some rest here. If you trust me, you can let me handle yourpany’s


    affairs for now.”


    “I can’t even save mypany, and you’re here to help. Why would I not trust you?”


    Elspeth then looked at Harper and ordered, “From now on, Jordan will be the acting president. He’ll


    handle all the affairs, so just obey his orders.”


    “Yes.” Harper was aware of Jordan’s capabilities, so he immediately nodded in agreement.


    However, Frank frowned with displeasure. “What about me? I’m here to help too. I can also do


    something for you!”


    “Alright, alright. Both of you will handle thepany’s affairs. Why don’t you be Jordan’s assistant,


    Frank?” Elspeth couldn’t helpughing, for she didn’t expect Frank to be as childish as ever.


    Only then did Frank put on a milder expression.


    …


    The fact that there was a new acting president at the Azure Corporation became trending news


    instantly. After some digging, people realized that the acting president was no ordinary person; he was


    from the Carr Family in ydal.


    They spected that he might be the Carr Group’s president, Jordan.


    However, they soon discovered that Jordan wasn’t the only one helping the Azure Corporation out.


    There was also Frank, a young master from the Joneson Family.


    Everyone was aware of how powerful the Jonesons and the Carrs were.


    Furthermore, ever since Jordan took office, the Azure Corporation’s finances had improved


    significantly. Not only had thepany returned to the peak of its power in a short time, but it was also


    showing signs of achieving even greater heights.


    The Carrs had arge cash reserve. Meanwhile, the Jonesons were also one of the wealthiest families


    in the country.


    The smallerpanies that had been oppressing the Azure Corporation were flustered. Apart from


    offending the Azure Corporation, they were now enemies with the Carrs and the Jonesons. How were


    smallerpanies like them supposed to survive?


    As such, they promptly sought help from the Alphascape Group. Nevertheless, those from the


    Alphascape Group were in hot water as well.


    After all, they never expected that Elspeth would get help from ydal.


    They initially thought that without Callum, the Azure Corporation was doomed to fail. It never crossed


    their minds that Elspeth still had a few more trump cards.


    Now, they just wanted to save themselves from trouble, so they didn’t have time to lend those smaller


    When the presidents of those smallerpanies begged for help, those from the Alphascape Group


    shut them out and pretended that they didn’t know what was going on.


    Despite Jordan’s gentle demeanor, he was more ruthless than most people thought.


    In just a few days, he managed to destroy several dozenpanies.


    As a result, no one had the guts to oppress the Azure Corporation again.


    Frank rted these stories to Elspeth as though they were jokes of some sort. Elspeth nodded gently


    and said, “Indeed, Jordan is very capable.”


    “No doubt about it. If not for the fact that Jordan is in love with someone else, I would’ve hoped for the


    both of you to get together.” Frank clicked his tongue, expressing his regret.


    The moment Elspeth registered Jordan’s presence, she motioned for Frank to stop. “Alright. Let’s stop


    talking about it.”


    “Okay… Hey, why are you here, Jordan?”


    Frank was wondering why Elspeth stopped him from talking about it when Jordan appeared in front of


    him all of a sudden.


    Jordan took a seat and said, “You’re here all the time while I’m swamped with work. Since I have some


    free time today, I’ve decided to visit Elspeth.”


    “How’s thepany doing now, Jordan?”


    Elspeth was most worried about herpany.


    Jordan replied confidently, “Don’t worry. Yourpany is thriving. The finances are in the ck again.”


    Elspeth felt relieved when she heard that from Jordan, whom she trusted wholeheartedly.


    I managed to solve the crisis without Callum.


    “I think I’ll be discharged today. Thanks for taking care of mypany for the past few days. Why don’t


    I treat you to a meal?”


    Elspeth couldn’t sit still, so she felt bored while staying in the hospital.


    Since the two of them had helped her immensely, she decided to treat them to a meal to express her


    gratitude.


    While Jordan was fine with that, Frank teased her by saying, “Sure. I’ll pick a ce and you’ll pay the


    bill.”


    Elspeth rolled her eyes. “You’re trying to take advantage of me again!”


    “I’m just pulling your leg. Yourpany has just gotten out of the woods. There’s no way I’ll let you


    pay.”


    Frank hurriedly waved his hand.


    Elspeth smiled and remained silent. She knew that Frank was a generous guy, so she didn’t take it


    seriously.


    Although herpany had just gone through a crisis, it wasn’t like she didn’t even have enough money


    to pay for a meal.


    Furthermore, thepany wasn’t her only source of ie.


    After a discussion, they decided to have a meal at a restaurant near the hospital.


    The restaurant was a subsidiary of the Azure Corporation, and it was a profitable entity.


    Upon entering the ce, Elspeth instantly saw two people in the distance.


    Their seats were unique, for they were exclusive to couples. It was a new conceptunched by the


    Azure Corporation, and many couples loveding to the restaurant for their seats.


    Presently, the two of them were seated across from each other while chatting cheerfully.


    “I didn’t expect Callum to be here.”


    When Frank stepped into the restaurant and saw them, he directly strode toward them. At the same


    time, he said scornfully, “He’s found a new partner so soon. I suppose he’s a charmer, eh?”


    “Alright. It has nothing to do with us.”


    Jordan was a sensible guy, so he wasn’t interested in what was going on over there.


    He pulled Frank back and turned to look at Elspeth, who remained unmoving.

    “What’s wrong? Jordan is right. It has nothing to do with us.” There didn’t seem to be any emotion on


    Elspeth’s face, and she even sported a faint smile.


    Jordan was slightly relieved when he saw that, but he still felt that something was off.
