Chapter 131


    His voice was as steady as a calm sea, devoid of any emotional upheaval, "How should I put it? It''s a


    bit of both, yes and no."


    Impatient for answers, I pressed, "What do you mean by yes and no? Just spit it out. I can handle


    whatever the truth is. I narrowly escaped death once, and now all I have left is a thirst for retribution.


    Tell me the truth, Addrion. I need to know."


    Upon hearing my plea, Addrion gazed at me, steadying his emotions for a while before he spoke again,


    "Indeed, all the misfortunes I have endured are directly linked to the Dawson brothers. They schemed


    against me, resulting in my expulsion from Medsafe Liyah Inc. However, the story doesn''t end there."


    "Start from the beginning! I want to know everything." I was desperate to understand what had


    transpired with Addrion all those years ago.


    Lowering his gaze, Addrion rubbed his hands together nervously, seemingly unsure where to begin, as


    if the memories were too painful to revisit.


    After what felt like an eternity, he lifted his eyes and began his story, "After you handed over Medsafe


    Liyah Inc. to Jan, at first, he seemed quite dedicated. He was respectful to all of us managers,


    treating us with the utmost courtesy. Back then, Jan was humble, taking charge of every single task,


    familiarizing himself with thepany from the ground up. After getting a solid understanding of the


    suppliers, distributors, and customers!"


    I listened quietly, eager to know every detail.


    "But things changed when they returned," Addrion''s expression morphed into one of contempt.


    I understood immediately. Marissa had woven her web.


    "The first one to be targeted was Farris, the financial director. All the transactions were controlled and


    major decisions were made by Jan, executed and overseen by Marissa.


    Naturally, this didn''t sit well with Farris, who raised his objections and discussed the issue with Jan


    several times. However, Jan continued his autocratic ways.


    Later, an error in a financial transaction urred, and Farris was dismissed on this pretext. Unwilling to


    ept this, Farris stormed the board meeting, only to be physically assaulted that very night." Addrion


    clenched his fist, "You know, Farris is a very stubborn and dedicated person. Otherwise, I wouldn''t have


    rmended him to you in the first ce!"


    I nodded. Farris, the financial director of Medsafe Liyah Inc., was actually Addrion''s cousin. This was a


    secret only known to me and Addrion. Farris was incredibly diligent, not even Addrion could misuse the


    "Later, Farris secretly told me about his suspicions regarding Jan and Marissa. I didn''t fully believe


    him at first, especially since you had asked Marissa to assist Jan before you left. I knew about that."


    I let out a bitterugh, "I didn''t realize how naive I was until now!"


    Addrion shook his head, "You can''t me yourself. People can be unpredictable."


    "What happened next?" I was growing impatient.


    "Things didn''t stop with Farris'' leave. On the contrary, one by one, managers and directors were


    suppressed without exception. By then, Marissa wielded significant power and her tactics were


    extremely ruthless. She individually held meetings with each of the managers and directors, demanding


    they relinquish control of their key operations, under the pretext that Mr. Dawson wanted to fully


    understand the workings of Medsafe Liyah Inc." Addrion said gravely, "You know, we were very tight-


    knit, and we had secret meetings to generate some strategies. But whoever took the lead was

    targeted!"


    "Those bastards!" I couldn''t help but curse.


    "I tried reaching out to you and even visited your home, but Jan was the one to receive me. He told


    me you had gone abroad!" Addrion looked at me, "I was truly worried then."


    "But I didn''t go anywhere!" I told Addrion, "They drugged me, and all I did was sleep day in and day


    out!"


    Addrion continued, "I was worried, so I called off their resistance and advised them to voluntarily


    surrender control of their key operations, to see how things would unfold. But they were soon one by


    one ousted, reced by the Dawson family''s loyalists. I was bing increasingly isted and
