Chapter 27
After Matthew put on his spectacles again, he realized that the young man who had suddenly barged into the conference room was known as “Mr. Campbell” by Craig.
He was so stunned that he nearly fell off the chair.
He's the big shot that even Craig has to kneel and bow before him. What kind of power does he have to make people with a rebellious character like Craig submit to him?
The boss of Galaxy Media, Matthew, didn't dare to think further.
When he saw the actions of Gary from the project management department, Matthew's heart nearly leaped out of his throat.
He hurriedly stumbled forward to stop Gary.
The scene of Craig hitting his head against the ground to the extent that there was blood all over the day before was still fresh in Matthew's head.
Matthew always stuttered when he was overwhelmed with emotions.
The boss' old habit is acting up again. Many people, including Gary, thought Harold's sudden intrusion had angered Matthew when they saw the latter stumbling over.
Gary hurriedly greeted Matthew with a huge smile and said, “This guy is not only barbaric and violent, but something is wrong with his brain as well, Mr. White. I'll get someone to kick him out immediately.”
The moment Gary finished speaking, Matthew landed a harsh slap on his face without hesitation.
Pow! The sound of the slap reverberated across the conference room.
As Matthew had slapped Gary hard across his face, the latter's face swelled up at a speed that was visible to the naked eye, just like a balloon.
The entire conference room went silent.
“A-Are you insane to chase him out? All of you, g-get out of the conference room now!” Matthew stammered again as he yelled at Gary, Steven Quinn, who was the manager, and the others in the conference room.
Except for Harold, everyone else was kicked out of the conference room.
The fact that Matthew could turn Galaxy Media into one of the top three companies within Dellmoor's advertising industry showed that he was a formidable person. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
I'm sure there's a reason behind Mr. Campbell's decision to act as an ordinary employee in my small company.
At the thought of that, Matthew didn't dare to expose Harold's identity in front of many people.
Furthermore, he would be doomed if he ruined Harold's plans.
Matthew stuttered, “Mr. C-Campbell, it's my f-fault for being blind. I wasn't a-aware of your identity
before, so...”
Matthew had wanted to explain the situation to Harold. However, he was so nervous that his habit of stammering became more serious. Thus, Matthew couldn't complete his sentence even after a long while.
Upon seeing that Matthew was having difficulties finishing his words, Harold interrupted and asked in confusion, “Hold on! Stop! How did you know about my identity?”
“Yesterday, I saw you outside P-Paradise Hotel and was fortunate to c-catch a glimpse of your power,” Matthew responded.
After completing his sentence, his glasses were drenched with sweat dripping from his forehead.
“I see. Don't talk anymore. It's pretty tiring to hear you speak. Instead, let me do the talking. I'm working in your company because I wish to keep a low profile. Do not reveal my identity to anyone, understand?” Harold commanded.
Afraid that Matthew would question why Harold had chosen to keep his identity hidden while working there for the past few years, Harold randomly provided a simple reason in advance to shut Matthew's mouth.
Harold knew that his boss had the habit of stuttering. However, he didn't expect Matthew's condition to worsen.
“Understood, Mr. Campbell!” Matthew hurriedly replied. After responding, Matthew wanted to take a sip of his drink to ease the nervousness in his heart.
As Matthew was nervous, the cup slipped out of his hands and dropped onto the ground. The coffee in the cup stained his clothes.
He immediately bent down to pick the cup from the ground, only to obtain a bruise on his forehead when he accidentally banged his head against the table.
Upon sensing Matthew's anxiety, Harold explained, “You don't have to be nervous. It's not like I'll eat you alive. The problem this time is Mr. Gibson is firing me for no reason...”
