Chapter 28: Kneeling and Apologizing

Book:Fallen Heir Rising Published:2024-6-5

Mr. Harrison was aware of their previous actions, but he chose to turn a blind eye out of face-saving considerations.
However, things were different now. They had been so blind and offended Quentin! So they must be dealt with!
Otherwise, if Quentin redirected his anger towards him, even he would suffer.
Witnessing this scene, Kolby’s eyes trembled slightly, and he stepped forward, saying, “Mr. Harrison, show me some respect. Krista and her father were implicated because of me. I don’t want them to be expelled…”
“Oh? And you are…” Mr. Harrison raised an eyebrow, not recognizing the person before him.
Kolby raised his head proudly and said, “I am Kolby, the Vice President of Stresall Chamber of Commerce.”
“I don’t know you, so why should I show you respect?” Mr. Harrison responded coldly.
Was he worthy? Just a Vice President of Stresall Chamber of Commerce, so what? How dare he speak to Quentin with such an attitude?
Seeing Mr. Harrison ruthlessly interrupting him, Kolby felt a surge of anger. “You…”
This was too much! After all, he was a prominent figure in high society.
“Mr. Harrison, I have shown you respect in our conversation earlier because I held you in some regard. I am Kolby, a local celebrity. Do you dare insult me and try to please a beggar-like poor guy? I think you must be confused!”
The noble middle-aged woman also glared angrily, “Exactly! My husband is the Vice President of the Chamber of Commerce! We are wealthy and influential! Our net worth is in the billions. What do you, an old fart, think you are? How dare you give us a condescending attitude?”
“And another thing!”
She looked fiercely at Quentin and the others, “Dare to slap me? I will make sure you pay the price! I will make sure you suffer!”
Quentin couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to them.
Eileen calmly said, “Vice President of the Chamber of Commerce? Soon you won’t be anymore.”
“And… I estimate that you will soon be finished.”
She had already ordered someone to investigate Kolby earlier, and soon, he would pay the price for his foolish actions today.
“Hehe!” Kolby and his wife laughed disdainfully. “This is ridiculous! I have billions in assets. I have money and status! You commoners, what are you fighting against me for? Disgusting…”
He had a proud expression, filled with disdain.
Just then, his phone rang. Seeing the name on the screen, he quickly answered with a fawning smile, “President, you…”
“I officially announce that Kolby, you have been expelled from the Chamber of Commerce!” A cold voice came from the other end.
Kolby’s head spun, buzzing in his ears… “President! Are you joking with me?” He panicked.
“Hmph! You have caused big trouble. Deal with it yourself!” After speaking, the President of Chamber of Commerce coldly hung up the phone.
Kolby trembled all over. The title of Vice President of the Chamber of Commerce had brought him so much profit over the years. Once he was expelled from the Chamber, his business would undoubtedly plummet…
When he was lost in thought, another call came in…
“Hello, boss, things went wrong! Our company… is being investigated!”
“All the previous irregularities, tax evasion… everything has been exposed!”
“Now those people are looking for you everywhere. You need to run!”
Kolby’s hand loosened, and his phone fell to the ground. There was only one thought in his mind… It was completely over!
He immediately knelt in front of Quentin. “Sir, I was wrong! I truly realize my mistake. Please, spare me…”
He wept bitterly, full of remorse, and his forehead was bleeding from the knocks!
