《The Hidden War General》全部章節：第 21 章 - 第 30 章

“He’s in the waiting room, Ma’am.”Angela Jackson immediately stepped out of her office and hurried into the elevator, moving a bit hastily.Calys, her assistant, followed her with a worried expression.As soon as the elevator doors closed, Angela turned back to Calys, “Are you sure … he’s really a representative from HC, Calys?”“Y-yes, Ma’am. He gave me an official business card from one of L-Land Company’s subsidiaries.”Calys’s explanation made Angela’s heart race even more, because she knew L-Land Company all too well. The company was one of the largest firms, having been established only six years ago yet already raking in massive profits-making it the most profitable company in history. The man behind it was, of course, HC, the mysterious businessman whose true appearance remained unknown even to this day. “Did he state his purpose for meeting me, Calys?”Calys shook her head, “No, Ma’am. He just said he wanted to meet you.”Angela furrowed her brow.However, all her doubts

“No need.”Hearing that answer, Henry stared at him in shock. “General. You-”“He did try to get rid of me, but this has nothing to do with the business he’s running, Henry.”Nathan sighed softly and took a sip of his black coffee before continuing, “Besides, he’s not the only one running that company. He’s just one of them. The people at that company have nothing to do with my issues with Ben.”Henry fell silent, or rather, he was stunned. The figure of the war general, known for his wisdom in every decision he made, hadn’t changed one bit. On the contrary, Nathaniel Lee had become far more cautious in his every action, especially when it concerned the interests of the many, as was the case now.“So, what should I do, General?”“Just refuse! Avoid meeting with him.”Nathan was silent for a few seconds before conti

Lucy was still staring at Simon with an expression she couldn’t quite hide. ‘Why does he seem to hold Angela in such high regard? What exactly has Angela done?’She couldn’t deny the jealousy filling her heart, but this time she could only remain silent, waiting for Simon’s answer. Meanwhile, Harry waited for the answer with a sharp gaze.Simon, however, turned toward Angela before speaking, “Miss Lucy, Mr. Harry, before we offered to partner with this company, we had already been monitoring Miss Angela’s performance.”Harry furrowed his brow, looking surprised. Lucy, meanwhile, gaped in shock.‘Does this mean they’ve wanted to partner with this company for a long time? But … they’d already chosen Angela from the start?’ Lucy thought, growing even more jealous. Simon continued without seeming rushed. “W

North didn’t leave right away; instead, he stood stiffly in front of Ben Walter’s desk, his back feeling cold from the sweat slowly seeping through. The young master’s piercing gaze hadn’t yet turned away from him, as if waiting impatiently.“Now, North!” Ben ordered briefly, but it was enough to make North’s heart race.“Y-yes, Young Master,” he replied quickly, not wanting to make his young master any angrier. With slightly trembling hands, North immediately pulled out his phone. He searched for the contact number previously gathered by the company’s internal intelligence team-the number belonging to the chief representative of L-Land Company. The name was clearly displayed on the screen, Simon Breece. A man he knew was the same person who had met with Angela Jackson.North swallowed hard before pressing the green icon on his phone’s screen.Meanwhile, on the oth

Of course, Ben didn’t answer the question right away. His grip on the phone tightened slightly, while North, standing nearby, held his breath.“Who is that person?” Hector asked again in a cold tone.Ben fell silent for a moment. He knew that once he uttered that name, there would be no taking it back. This time, he had no other choice.However, Hector didn’t give him much time. “Name him!” he pressed, this time more firmly. “Or this conversation ends right here, Young Master Walter .…”In the Walter Company office, the atmosphere grew tense once more. North could even feel the mounting pressure in the air.Ben let out a soft sigh, giving in. For the first time, he was truly backed into a corner. But it was clear he had no intention of backing down.“The person I’m referring to is .…” he said slowly, “someone who is currently connected to your
