Chapter 24: Poor Cole

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After the secretary pushed open the door and left, Owen immediately stood up, picked up the suit jacket on the hanger, and pushed open the door.

Bruce, who was standing outside, was still on standby. As soon as he saw Owen come out, he immediately went up to him. “President, where are you going?”

“The academic discussion group,” Owen replied curtly.

“I’ll arrange for a car immediately.” Bruce took out his phone and called the driver.

After Bruce hung up and followed Owen out, he secretly looked at the CEO’s expression. He looked much colder than usual.

Bruce did not dare to ask. He was guessing who made the CEO so sad.

It seemed that ever since the President’s unrequited first love, Miss Mia, died in a car accident, he had never seen President Owen look like this again. It was a little strange. Who made the President change?

Owen couldn’t care less what his secretary, Bruce, was thinking about. He was thinking about what to do with Cole.

Since Cole cared so much about fame and fortune and even used it to entice Anita, He would get payback this way.

The car drove all the way to the academic discussion committee. Owen got out of the car, picked up the document bag, and walked towards the committee.

“Mr. Peter, take a look at this,” Owen said as he handed the folder to Team Leader Peter.

Team Leader Peter did not expect Owen to suddenly appear and give him this. This news was too scandalous, and for a moment, Team Leader Peter did not know what to do. “Is this confirmed?”

“Team Leader Peter, what do you think? Isn’t your organizing committee going to review such a person? You let him participate in the meeting as a famous person in academia?” Owen said coldly.

Team Leader Peter wiped his sweat and said, ” Cole is here every year for the academic discussion. His reputation is okay, so… so the committee was negligent with the reviews.”

“Is that so? Team Leader Peter, it’s up to you now,” Owen asked directly.

This was clearly a threat. Owen was the biggest sponsor of the academic discussion, and they required his company to provide a lot of their venue funds.

Peter could guess that Cole must have offended Owen. He knew who was more important, so he thought about it and said, “What do you think about this solution? Fire Cole from our academic conference and tell everyone at the conference.”

“Is that it, Team Leader Peter?” Owen said again.

“President Owen, what do you think we should do? After all, Cole has been in the academic community for many years. If we force him into a desperate situation, it might backfire.”

“Is that so? Then do as you say and send this information to the university he works at.” Owen sneered.

Team Leader Peter, who was beside him, wanted to wipe the cold sweat on his head with his hand again. This move was too ruthless. Now, when Cole returned to the country, let alone giving lectures, would he even be able to retain his position in the school?

But he couldn’t show his thoughts on his face, so he agreed. “Yes, we’ll do as you say.”

Owen got the results he wanted, so he smiled and stood up. “Team Leader Peter, thank you for your hard work. I’ll be leaving now.”

Owen was quite happy that he had settled it. He wondered if he should tell Annie about it, but then he thought that it wouldn’t be appropriate, so he endured it and didn’t say anything.

So it was almost a week later when Anita found out.

No one said anything about what happened on the day of the banquet. Even her mentor did not know. She only rested at home for two days and then took a few days off to return to her hometown.

The problem of the bank loan expiring at home had not been resolved, and Anita was having a headache. She had to contact the bank first and see if they could extend the loan for a few more days.

Anita’s scholarship for the past six months was about to hit her account. She was going to use this scholarship to pay off the bank loan. Her family only had one house. She couldn’t let her parents sleep on the streets.

Her parents didn’t know that Anita had used her scholarship to pay off their bank loan. They thought that Anita had borrowed money from her friend again, and they felt even more guilty.

At night, while Anita was taking care of her father, he couldn’t help but say, “Anita, I’ve let you down and dragged you down.”

“Daddy, what are you talking about? Don’t say that. We’re a family.” When she heard her father say that, she couldn’t help but want to cry, but she was afraid that her father would feel even worse, so she tried hard to hold it in.

“Okay, let’s not talk about it anymore. Tomorrow, let your mother make some delicious food and buy some local specialties. When you go back, bring them with you and give them to the benefactor who lent us money during the surgery.”

Anita suddenly remembered when she heard her father mention the money. She hadn’t returned Owen’s jacket to him. She hadn’t even contacted him since they parted that day..
