Phew!

Lareina Hayes, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help laughing.

Within the Hayes family, she has a neutral attitude and never participates in internal fights within the family.

Although she did not come from a scholarly family, she was fond of music, chess, calligraphy and painting since she was a child, and she was a talented girl of the Hayes family.

Her smile didn't matter, but it aroused the anger of Orion Hayes brother and sister.

He shouted coldly at Bran Ingalls: "You are as poor as you, but you still dare to talk nonsense! You are just a piece of garbage!"

"Brother, you praise him too much. Garbage can still be recycled. It's just a waste, not even as good as garbage!"

The brother and sister sang in harmony and made fun of each other.

Bran Ingalls expression didn't change at all, and he just responded coldly: "You fart smelly, and you still have bad breath. This is a gastrointestinal disease. It should be treated early."

"You..."Orion Hayes was choked up and smiled scornfully, "Editha Hayes, I remember that there was a gap of eight million in the project you were responsible for. Tsk, tsk, let's see how you explain it to grandma later."

"I knew it was you who was behind this, you're despicable!"Editha Hayes clenched her fists, furious.

"So what if it's me who did the trick? Do you think grandma will talk to you?"Orion Hayes said with a proud smile, "Eight million is not a small amount. How should you repay it? I feel a headache for you."

"sister Editha, I can help you find a part-time job. But with your conditions, you can only go to the hotel to work as a cleaner. I am very helpless."

The brother and sister looked at each other and smiled even more wildly.

Bran Ingalls smiled coldly and protected Editha Hayes behind him, "Your conditions are pretty good. You should have no problem being a nightclub girl."

"It's just a bit cheap. It's only two hundred a night, no more."

Editha Hayes looked at Bran Ingalls's back, dazed.

Being protected by him like this, I felt so mixed inside that I couldn't express my feelings.

Orion Hayes brother and sister were so angry that they couldn't bear Bran Ingalls humiliation.

"You piece of trash, you're looking for death!"

At this moment, Mrs. Xiao came to the hall surrounded by a group of servants.

In an instant, everyone fell silent and returned to their original positions.

"Wait for me, I'll see how you die soon!"Orion Hayes snorted coldly and walked away.

Katrina Hayes glared at Bran Ingalls fiercely and followed Orion Hayes away.

Malcolm Hayes’s family sits on the left, Liam Hayes’s family sits in the middle, and Julian Hayes’s family is on the far right.

"Bran Ingalls, stop talking nonsense later."Editha Hayes hurriedly warned.

When Bran Ingalls helped her deal with Orion Hayes just now, she didn't have to worry about it, but in front of old Madam Hayes, she couldn't act recklessly, otherwise it would end badly.

Bran Ingalls nodded and said nothing more.

"Everyone is here, let's start now."old Madam Hayes said softly, "Orion, please report on the company's recent operating conditions."

"Okay grandma."Orion Hayes stood up, glanced at Bran Ingalls and Editha Hayes with a sneer, and deliberately raised his voice, "The company is currently operating well and there are no major problems."

"But there is a gap of eight million in the accounts of the project that Editha Hayes is responsible for. Let grandma make a decision."

old Madam Hayes immediately looked at Editha Hayes and said coldly: "Editha, what's going on?"

"Grandma, Orion Hayes was originally in charge of this project, but it was later handed over to me. Problems arose before I took over."

Editha Hayes replied truthfully, even if the money had been made up, she still had to clear her name.

"You're talking nonsense!"Orion Hayes denied flatly, "Grandma, there was no problem at all when I handed it to her. She is deliberately shirking responsibility and intending to frame me."

"Orion Hayes, you are still shameless! I wanted to audit the accounts after I took over, and you tried to obstruct me in every possible way. It's obvious that you have something up your sleeve. Grandma..."

"Shut up, everyone!"

Before Editha Hayes could finish her words, old Madam Hayes shouted coldly, "Did you come to the internal family meeting to quarrel?!"

"I know what Orion is doing, and there will be no problems. Editha, since the project is a problem in your hands, you should reflect on it and not shirk responsibility."

"You still wantonly slander Orion, you disappoint me so much!"

A wry smile appeared on Editha Hayes face, knowing that this would be the result. Grandma didn't believe her words at all.

He only had eyes for his precious grandson Orion Hayes, and she, his granddaughter, was dispensable.

Orion Hayes looked proud and took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire, "Grandma is wise, this Editha Hayes has ulterior motives. I suspect that those eight million dollars are missing and she took the opportunity to embezzle. She must be severely punished!"

"I didn't! Orion Hayes, you are so slanderous!"

"You know it yourself. Grandma has her own judgment on this matter. It's useless for you to quibble!"

"Grandma, Editha Hayes must be severely punished for slandering my brother like this. Let her pay back the debt, then drive her out of the company and eliminate the bad apples!"

Katrina Hayes followed closely behind Orion Hayes, echoed, and stepped on Editha Hayes hard.

old Madam Hayes face was cold, "Editha, I don't want to pursue this matter too much. You must pay back the eight million in debt immediately. Otherwise, don't blame grandma for being ruthless and driving you out of the family."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of both Editha Hayes and Malcolm Hayes and his wife changed with shock.

I didn’t expect old Madam Hayes to be so unkind!

I originally thought that at most I would be fired from the company, but who knew that I would be kicked out of the family.

Fortunately, the eight million arrears have been settled, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

Orion Hayes and Katrina Hayes were secretly proud that they knew exactly where those eight million dollars were going.

Editha Hayes is dead this time and will definitely not be able to return.

"Grandma, I have returned the money, you don't need to worry. But I must declare that the loss was not caused by my responsibility, and I did not embezzle a penny from the company."

Editha Hayes is neither humble nor arrogant, even when facing old Madam Hayes, she will not compromise.

Orion Hayes and Katrina Hayes both looked stunned. Return it?

How can this be? !

"Editha Hayes, you still want to deceive grandma, you..."

"You can call the finance department and ask if you received eight million in the afternoon and added it to the company's accounts."

"Just wait for me, I'll call now."

Orion Hayes immediately took out his cell phone and called the financial director. Sure enough, as Editha Hayes said, the gap had been filled.

In an instant, Orion Hayes lost his composure. Where did Editha Hayes get so much money?

I originally expected to take this opportunity to drive her out of the company, but who knows...

Without thinking too much, he immediately changed his mind and snorted coldly: "What if you return it? Why don't you sacrifice your wealth to protect yourself when you see the matter exposed?"

"Grandma, it has been proven that this money was embezzled by Editha Hayes. Otherwise, how could she get eight million!"

Katrina Hayes followed up by adding more fuel and jealousy, "Grandma, Editha Hayes is corrupting the company and is committing a heinous crime!"

"Nonsense!"Ivane Lee couldn't hold back her anger and stood up to defend: "Mom, they deliberately framed our Editha family. The money was not embezzled by her, it was our own money."

"Hahaha, sister-in-law, don't you blush when you say this? Can your family spend eight million?"

Liam Hayes and others were all laughing.

"Who says we can't get it? I asked Bran Ingalls to buy a lottery ticket and win the jackpot. We still have two million in hand now."

Ivane Lee put gold on her face, and with a proud smile, she quickly took out the platinum dragon card and showed it off to everyone.

For a moment, everyone looked at Bran Ingalls with surprise on their faces.

Won more than 10 million in lottery tickets? This is incredible luck!

As for Orion Hayes and Katrina Hayes, while they were shocked, they also secretly resented it.

A great opportunity, but I didn't expect that it would be destroyed in the hands of a loser in the end.

So unwilling!

How hateful!

Bran Ingalls looked calm and didn't bother to pay attention.

As long as Editha Hayes successfully solves the problem, he won't bother talking nonsense to others.

"Hey, husband, I was watching the news a few days ago. The grand prize of fifteen million was finally taken away by a mysterious person. Could it be... that trash?"

Margaret expression changed uncertainly, with deep jealousy hidden in her eyes.

Fifteen million grand prize?

Ivane Lee was frightened and began to make secret calculations.

After deducting 20% ​​of the tax, you get 12 million!

In other words, Bran Ingalls still has two million in his hand that he has not yet taken out.

Ivane Lee is full of resentment, but you, Bran Ingalls, really have something left to spare.

Hum, this money must come!

"Okay, now that the matter has been cleared up, let's end this matter."old Madam Hayes spoke up at this time, and no one was talking nonsense anymore.

"Next is the focus of tonight's meeting. Xinhai Investment Company, our the Hayes family must strive for cooperation opportunities. Orion, I still leave this matter to you."

hehe!

Bran Ingalls sneered secretly and gave him the responsibility?

That's a good relationship, I'm waiting for him to go and embarrass you!
