At this moment, Emmanuel wished he were invisible if possible, but Matthew still called out his name.
"What happened?" Perhaps due to anger, Casper's voice sounded a bit hoarse.
Emmanuel couldn't help but want to slap himself a few times. If only he hadn't behaved so recklessly. If only he had investigated this matter beforehand, then he wouldn't have caused such massive trouble.
However, no matter how much he regretted it now, he had to answer obediently.
After Emmanuel explained everything in detail, Casper was less angry. "This is your personal grudge. As an outsider, I'm in no position to intervene. Mr. Emmanuel Kozak, thank you for contributing to our company during your time here. Also, a friendly reminder. They didn't extort you. The market value of those precious herbs you destroyed is more than 60 million, so you'd better watch out."
Upon hearing that, Emmanuel breathed a sigh of relief. Everything would be fine as long as Caspert didn't hold him responsible for that incident, but after careful consideration, Emmanuel suddenly panicked. Is Mr. Gallagher implying that I have been dismissed?
When he thought about the nearly 60 million in compensation, he instantly turned ashen. "Casper. Casper, you can't abandon me like this."
To Casper, nearly 60 million was just a drop in the bucket, but to Emmanuel, that amount was like an astronomical figure.
Just as he was about to rush up to Casper and beg for mercy, two black-clad bodyguards suddenly appeared behind him and pinned him to the ground.
"How dare you attack Mr. Gallagher."
One of the bodyguards raised his arm, but just as his fist was about to land on Emmanuel, Casper suddenly stopped him.
"Since we were colleagues, there's no need to end things so badly. Take him out and throw him into the sea!"
But considering they were in Cathay's capital and doing so might cause unnecessary trouble, Casper changed his order. "Forget it. Just throw him out."
What kind of favor could make the other party lower their status like this?
"Mr. Gallagher, this is unnecessary. You didn't destroy my ingredients."
But Casper shook his head. "But he was once my employee, wasn't he?"
Matthew wasn't a petty person, either. Since the other party had shown his attitude, he would not dwell on that small matter anymore. "Alright, but I do have something important to attend to now. So if you have other matters to handle, you can go ahead. I still need quite a while"
Matthew wasn't being pretentious because today's lunch was not only a farewell for his companions but for entertaining some distinguished guests too.
"It's alright, Mr. Larson. You can go ahead. All you have to do is provide me with lunch."
