Chapter 414
Nell looked toward the entrance as Liam headed inward with a few police officers in tow.
With a smug grin, he went over to Neil. “You embezzled company funds and leaked company secrets. You even committed tax fraud. For the sake of justice, I have to do this.”
Curtis was worked up. He gnashed his teeth before saying, “Mr. Remus, that’s an unfounded claim!”
Liam sneered. “You’re just Neil’s lapdog. You’re not fit to bark at me.”
When he just joined Remus Corporation, Curtis kept a close eye on him. As such, Liam had to be sneaky when he wanted to pull his tricks. Curtis had been an eyesore for a long time. Once Neil was taken away, the first person he fired would be Curtis!
Neil just looked at him coldly and said, “Shut your mouth, Liam!”
With a prideful expression, Liam smiled and said, “You should just cooperate with the police for their investigation. As for Remus Corporation, I’ll take care of it for you.”
The police officers behind him went forward to show him their badges. Then, they sternly said, “Mr. Remus, a former employee of yours has given themselves to the police this morning. Remus Corporation is under suspicion of tax fraud. Please come with us.”
Neil looked at Curtis and said coolly, “Have Mr. Smith act as the acting president and manage company affairs while I’m not around.”
Liam laughed and said, “There’s no need for that. I have 20% of Remus Corporation’s shares right now. While you’re away for investigation, I’ll be the largest shareholder in Remus Corporation. I’ll be the one in charge of the company!”
Neil just gave him a cold look and said nothing else. He left with the police.
After watching Neil leave, Liam sat down at the office table and gave Curtis a look. “Get me coffee.”
Curtis stared at him coldly. “Mr. Remus, this is Mr. Neil Remus’s office. Please leave right now!”
Liam’s eyes were full of mockery and disdain. “Do you actually think that Neil will come back? I’m going to be the president from now on. If you don’t want to work for me, you can pack up your stuff and go!”
The “evidence” he prepared was enough to keep Neil behind bars forever. He would never be
able to come out!
“Mr. Neil Remus personally hired me. No one has the right to make me leave aside from him!” Liam chuckled and ordered the security guards to chase Curtis away.
Soon, the security guards arrived.
Through gnashed teeth, Curtis glared at Liam and said, “I don’t need you chasing me away. I’ll leave on my own terms, but I’ll be back!”
Liam shrugged. “Mr. Harrell, you’re quite the dreamer.”
With that said, he looked at the security guards coldly. “Chase him out. Are you waiting for me to ask you nicely to do your job?”
The security guards gave Curtis a troubled look. “Mr. Harrell…
Curtis did not make things hard for them. He left Remus Corporation.
News of Neli being taken by the police for questioning soon spread across Ryoln City. Remus Corporation’s stocks dropped by quite a huge margin. At the same time, Liam organized a press conference the day he became Remus Corporation’s new president.
“As Neil’s cousin, I’m truly sorry about Neil using the company to commit such criminal acts. I feel like we’ve let the public down. I will be taking over Remus Corporation in the future, and I promise you that such things won’t happen again. I welcome all of you to keep an eye on us.” When she saw Liam and his disingenuous expression, Ada turned the television off with a cold expression.
He sure was making all sorts of high promises. She wondered whether he could really do it. Also, she did not believe that Neil would do such things. Liam must have set him up! Mindy peeled an apple for her and sighed, “I wasn’t expecting Remus Corporation to change hands so suddenly. By the looks of it, we’ll need to curry favor with Liam in the future.”
Mindy cast a subconscious glance at Ada’s flat stomach.
The baby was only a little over one month old, so Ada’s belly was not showing yet.
Ada realized what Mindy was trying to say, and she frowned. “Stop dreaming, Mom. Liam doesn’t care about the baby. Otherwise, he would have visited me in the hospital, but he never did.‘
Mindy remained silent for a few seconds and suddenly said, “I have a plan.”
