Chapter 3

Auteur: Luminance
“Oh wow. Look at this creep. Someone call the cops and arrest him!”

“He looks decent enough on the outside, but his mind is totally filthy. What a lowlife.”

With the crowd backing her up, Megan grew even more arrogant.

“I seriously think you just stole something valuable from our hotel lobby.

“Security! Search his suitcase. Now!”

Just as I was about to object, two security guards rushed forward.

“You don’t have the right to—”

They tore my suitcase roughly. The zipper broke apart.

Megan took over herself. She dug through the suitcase wildly with both hands.

Soon, my clothes, documents, and materials were scattered everywhere.

Malice flashed across her eyes. She picked up a black square box from the suitcase.

She smashed it hard onto the floor.

The box shattered.

The core sample of the new environmentally friendly material inside broke into several pieces. It was completely ruined.

Still not satisfied, she grabbed a stack of contracts from the floor.

She tore them into shreds in a few quick motions. Pieces of paper floated all over the floor.

After she was done, she dusted off her hands and looked at me arrogantly.

“Consider this a little lesson. Maybe it’ll teach you to remember your place.”

I stood there without stopping her.

I simply spoke coldly with an indifferent expression, “Do you have any idea how much the things you just destroyed are worth?

“Those things could have saved a company on the verge of going under.

“You’re in serious trouble this time.”

Megan acted as if she had heard the funniest joke in the world. She bent over laughing.

“Save a company? You’re just some broke nobody working a dead-end job. You really know how to talk yourself up.

“Now get lost. Just looking at you makes me sick.”

I lowered my gaze and looked at the shattered pieces and torn paper shreds on the floor.

I felt nothing. I just let out a cold laugh.

I picked up my phone. Just then, Victor messaged me.

[Mr. Ludwig, Mr. Zorn is losing his patience because he can’t find the person in charge. I gave him your number.]

Before I could reply, an unknown number started calling me frantically.

I took the call.

The line erupted with an enraged shout.

“So you’re the person replacing Victor? Don’t you know what time we agreed on?! Where are you right now?

“Do you have any idea how important this deal is? If you mess it up, you couldn’t pay for it even with your life.

“Mr. Ludwig and I go way back. He’s my good friend. How dare you show up late? I’ll have him fire you!”

I looked down at the broken samples and torn contract on the floor.

Then, I replied calmly, “I’m sorry, Mr. Zorn.

“It looks like this deal isn’t going to happen.”

Albert went completely silent.

After a couple of seconds, he screamed again.

“What did you just say?! You’re looking for a fight. Tell me where you are right now. I’m coming to find you

“I’m not letting this go today.”

I said plainly, “I’m right at the entrance of the Grandview Hotel.”

Albert hung up harshly.

I put away my phone and waited quietly.

Within a minute, he pushed the door open and stormed out furiously.

He immediately spotted Megan standing at the entrance. He frowned and asked, “Did you see the representative from Grandview Group? A guy. He said he’s at the entrance.”

Megan’s eyes lit up right away. She threw herself into his arms, crying.

She pointed at me and said, “Honey! This broke loser called corporate to complain about me. I told him to get lost, but he won’t leave. You need to teach him a good lesson for me.”

Albert instantly lost his temper. He glared at me hatefully.

    “That’s not all. She also worked with a supplier of low-quality ingredients. She took kickbacks and illegally made over seven hundred thousand dollars.“The evidence is right there. Grandview Group has officially filed a report with the authorities. We will make sure she faces every single legal consequence.”After hearing that, Megan’s legs gave out, and she collapsed onto the floor.Albert’s eyes darted around. He began to stir up the GreenSource Tech Group employees behind him.“Don’t listen to him! If GreenSource Tech Group goes under, every last one of you is out of a job!“Corbin did this to us. He cut off our way to make a living.“Everyone, come with me. We need to demand an answer from him!”Hundreds of GreenSource Tech Group employees were incited by him. They grew restless and began to approach me.I remained calm as I said, “Everyone, calm down. I also have a whistleblower report right here. Charles spent over a year digging to get this.“Albert had a gambling addi

    I smiled coldly. I was not afraid of him. I said indifferently, “Albert, I’ve hated ultimatums my whole life.“Do you want to play games? Fine. I’ll play with you.”With that, I hung up the phone.After work that evening, I had just driven my car up from the underground garage when a dense crowd of people immediately surrounded me.There were reporters from major media outlets. There were also over one hundred employees of GreenSource Tech Group holding signs.Albert and Megan stood at the very front.I pushed open the door and stepped out fearlessly. Everyone immediately crowded around me.“Mr. Ludwig, is it true that you secretly took photos of Ms. Lund?”“Why did you refuse to cooperate with GreenSource Tech Group and push them into a corner with no way out?”“Do you really feel no guilt at all when you see an old man kneeling on the ground?Albert seized the opportunity. He pointed at me, and he incited his employees to fight me.“This is him, Corbin Ludwig! He tries

    Victor’s words completely shattered Albert’s hope.“How is this possible? You’re actually Mr. Ludwig...”I ignored him. Instead, I turned to look at my assistant following behind me and ordered, “First, put together a special investigation team immediately. Go through every hotel under Grandview Group, especially Riviera’s branch.“Second, look into Megan. Find out how many people she has given special treatment to under my name since she was hired.“Third, every manager, security guard, and front desk worker at that Riviera hotel is to be fired on the spot. That includes the executives who hired Megan. Demote them and fine them according to company policy.“All staff involved in this debacle will be added to the industry blacklist. We will circulate their names across the entire hospitality sector. They’ll never be hired by any hotels again.”After saying this, I stopped looking at Albert and Megan. I walked straight toward the elevator.I had only just taken a couple of steps

    “Sign the contract with me right now!“The bank only gave me seven days without seeing a contract. If you mess around and delay signing again, I swear I’ll kill you.”I lowered my eyes and looked at the hand gripping my collar. I let out a cold snort.“Oh. Aren’t you Mr. Ludwig of Grandview Group? Why are you yelling about wanting to see him?”Upon hearing that, Albert froze. He became even angrier.“Don’t play dumb with me.“You recognized me already, yet you still didn’t call us out. You’ve been putting on an act from the very beginning. You deliberately messed with me, didn’t you?”The more he talked, the angrier he got. He raised his other fist and prepared to punch me in the face.My gaze turned sharp. I raised my hand, grabbed his wrist precisely, and twisted it hard.He winced in pain and immediately let go of my collar.I took a step back and adjusted my collar. I said in an indifferent and deliberate tone, “Mr. Zorn. Are you trying to start trouble in the Grandvi

    “Let’s go! The press conference is still on!”After I was locked in the holding cell, I actually found it to be a rare moment of relief.Ever since I turned eighteen, I had been handling the various affairs of Grandview Group.For ten whole years, I had worked like a hamster on a wheel.I ran non-stop without ever daring to rest.Without my phone, it allowed me to catch my breath.In the holding cell, I met a man named Charles Carroll.He was a forty-two-year-old senior reporter at a media company. He had been doing in-depth investigative journalism for nearly twenty years.As we communicated more, it turned out he had inside knowledge about Albert’s GreenSource Tech Group that I never even knew.At the same time, he also told me the reason why he had been brought in.His eight-year-old daughter had been diagnosed with acute leukemia. For two years, he poured every last dollar of his savings into her treatment and ran up a huge amount of debt.Just a few days ago, he final

    Albert and Megan had just returned to the hotel room when Albert got a reminder from the bank that his payment was due on his phone.He slapped his forehead and realized that he had forgotten the important matter.He quickly picked up his phone and called the contact person at Grandview Group.But no matter how many times he called, the phone kept saying it had been turned off.He instantly became furious.He picked up the phone again and called Victor.The phone rang for a long time before someone answered.He was about to lose his temper, but the voice on the other end was not Victor’s. It was an old woman’s voice.“May I ask who’s calling?”“Who’s this? Put Victor on the phone.”“Oh, I’m Victor’s mother. He just had emergency surgery for acute appendicitis. He’s too weak right now and has already gone to sleep.”“I need to talk to him about something really urgent.”Victor’s mother sighed.“I’m sorry, but he was given a painkiller shot. I can’t wake him up at all.”Alb
