Nathan knocked on the door and rushed into David’s office. He took out his phone and handed it to David, saying, "Mr. Charrington, a negative post about ourpany is trending."
David nced at it. It had been a week since the incident had urred. However, news of it only appeared on the Inte when he returned to the country.
Nathan reported, "Also, your father informed the shareholders to gather for a meeting in ten minutes."
David mocked, "It seems like he’s really eager to remove me as the CEO."
David asked, "Is thedy in the video the one who asked for 6.5 million dorspensation?"
Nathan nodded and replied, "It’s her. Patrick dealt with the incident the moment it urred. However, this woman was greedy and asked for 6.5 million dors. The other workers’ families imitated her example. They werepletely unreasonable.
"Moreover, the injuries of this woman’s husband were not as serious as she imed. The doctor had been wanting to transfer the husband from the ICU to the general ward, but this woman did not agree to it. She even threw a tantrum in the doctor’s office."
David instructed, "Inform the legal department to sue the person who spread the rumors online. Also, get the legal department to discuss thepensation with the victims’ families. Give them as muchpensation as we can within a reasonable range."
"Mr. Charrington, should I get someone to remove the post on the Inte now?" Nathan asked.
David replied, "Let it be."

"I recall David is the person in charge of this project. It has been a week since this urred. David, you have never visited the victims at the hospital. Do you have anything to say about this?"
Geoffrey stared at David sitting in the chairman seat with a serious expression.
Geoffrey was only in his fifties now. However, Logan skipped him and let David be the CEO of the Charrington Group.
Because of this, Geoffrey had to report to David and couldn’t do as he pleased for thest few years. Geoffrey felt like he was the son instead. Now, he finally caught the seemingly mighty Davidmitting a mistake.
David was wearing a tailored suit. His expression was cold as he looked Geoffrey straight in the eye.
David said, "What do you want to hear from me?"
Geoffrey used, "Because of this incident, thepany’s stocks are falling. All theizens are condemning our group. As the CEO of thepany and the initiator of the resort project, shouldn’t you go to the hospital immediately to apologize andpensate the families?
"When this happened, you were nowhere to be seen. Are you nning to run away from your responsibilities? Are you disregarding the interests of thepany and the shareholders?"
The expressions of the shareholders turned sullen. Indeed, thepany stocks falling meant that they were all losing money.
Geoffrey was determined to get the shareholders to side with him.
When the incident happened, David was at the border. He immediately got his subordinates to deal with it. However, some workers’ families were
