Chapter 80: I’m Not in the Mood to Play With You
Before Tiger left, he turned around and stared at William Scott. There was humiliation, anger, and certainly fear in his eyes.
William Scott did not mind. These guys had better not provoke him again. Otherwise, he would not mind pressing them to the ground and scrubbing them against it.
The room fell silent at this moment, and then the uneven breathing of Charles Woods and Yvette Quinn could be seen.
“Do you think you can control everything just because you’re good at fighting?” Charles Woods swallowed hard and glared at William Scott. “This is a lawful society. If you dare to touch me, I’ll definitely sue you until you go bankrupt.”
Without those hooligans around, Yvette Quinn’s thoughts were clearer now. She sneered and said, “Director Woods, you really changed your personality in a split second. You didn’t think of the law when you hired so many people. Now that these people can’t support you, you’re talking about the law instead.”
Charles Woods said with a dark expression, “So what? Yvette Quinn, no matter what, you have to pay back the loan. You can’t get a loan elsewhere either. If you want to fight me, we’ll fight to the end. I have plenty of ways to play you till you die.”
William Scott sneered. “Unfortunately, I’m not in the mood to play with you.”
“That’s not for you to decide, kid. Strength does make people afraid, but in today’s society, that doesn’t mean everything. Who has the last say depends on connections, power, and background. I haven’t had enough fun with this. If you want it to end, no way will I agree.”
William Scott grinned and said, “Is that so? All right, let me show you something then.” He picked up his phone and clicked on the screen before pushing the phone to him.
Before Yvette Quinn could take a look at it, the phone was already in front of Charles Woods. This made her very curious. What did William Scott have? But it was definitely working, as Charles Woods’ expression had already changed after just two glances.
“You… This is impossible! You’re making this up.” Charles Woods gripped William Scott’s phone tightly and roared angrily.
William Scott drawled indifferently, “You know very well whether it’s made up or not.”
......
“Mr… Scott…” Charles Woods swallowed hard and changed the way he addressed William Scott. He put on a smile and stood up to stand beside him. “Mr Scott, I was blind to not recognize you. I won’t withdraw the loan from CEO Quinn. I’ll also give you an additional five million dollar loan. No, no! As long as CEO Quinn needs the loan, I’ll agree to any amount.”
Yvette Quinn was really a little frightened. What information did William Scott have on Charles Woods to coerce him to make such a promise?
William Scott looked at Charles Woods as if he was invisible and replied mildly, “I don’t think you can make any decisions anymore.”
“What… what do you mean?” Charles Woods stammered.
“I’m just telling you that all these… including your superiors and the Commissioner for anti-corruption, have already seen this stuff.”
“You…” Charles Woods suddenly jumped and pointed at William Scott like a madman. “Are you trying to kill me?”
A teasing smile appeared on William Scott’s face. “You’re right. I want to kill you.”
“Do I have such a huge grudge against you? I’ve already admitted my mistake. I’ve already agreed to give you a loan, and you still want to mess with me? You’re too much!”
“Too much?” William Scott suddenly stood up and shouted, “In your position, what you do not only represents yourself, but also your company. You used the power in your hands to force Yvette to sleep with you. You have completely lost all your morals. To a b*stard like you who can’t be even considered a human, you don’t deserve a second chance!”
“Well said!” Yvette Quinn couldn’t help but clap. His words were really domineering and powerful. He sounded like a true man. Most importantly, he exuded righteousness.
Charles Woods’ lips trembled. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, “Kid, you’re too naive. Do you really think that you can ruin me with these things?”
“Do you think your backer is strong enough that no one can touch you?” William Scott narrowed his eyes.
Charles Woods’ eyes were red like a mad dog. He shouted at the top of his lungs, “That’s right! I have a backer. What can you do to me? Let me tell you, even if you publish all this stuff, they will still end up in my hands. I’ll still be the director. You guys can forget about getting a single dollar!”
At that moment, footsteps came from the door, and three men walked in. One of them was in his forties, and the other two looked slightly younger. Their faces were stoic as they stared at Charles Woods.
“Who are you? Who let you in? Get out!” Charles Woods shouted at the three of them.
The man in the middle took out his ID and said, “We’re from the Anti Corruption division. Charles Woods, please cooperate.”
“The anti- corruption… is nothing! The… the…” Charles Woods only shouted arrogantly. Then, as if by magic, the two words sucked all the strength out of his body. He could only splutter and the rest of the words were stuck in his throat.
The other two young men stood beside Charles Woods and said sternly, “Please cooperate.”
Charles Woods felt his legs go weak. He knew very well what it meant for the Anti-Corruption division to come directly here. It meant that they had enough evidence to arrest him. He was afraid that something was really going to happen.
Before being carried out, Charles Woods turned to look at William Scott. His eyes were filled with regret, but it was not because he regretted his deeds, but because he regretted provoking William Scott.
Yvette Quinn felt that her head was spinning slightly. This whole situation had evolved too quickly. In less than half an hour, the arrogant Charles Woods was taken away by the police.
Her phone rang. Seeing that it was an unfamiliar number, she hesitated for a moment before answering.
“Hello, is this CEO Quinn?” It was a man’s voice. He sounded rather commanding and formal.
“That’s right. May I know who you are?” Yvette Quinn asked politely.
“I’m George Foster from Ocean Bank. I will be in charge of your company’s loan from now on.”
“Huh? Then Director Woods…” Yvette Quinn asked in surprise.
“I’ve already taken over his portfolio. I know that your loan’s deadline is approaching, so I’ll liaise with you first. I’ll see what I can do to renew the loan or if there’s a need for a follow-up loan.”
“Oh!” Yvette Quinn exclaimed and turned to look at William Scott.
