Chapter 1762 Private Settlement
Mr. Lawrence’s face was ashen, and his body was trembling. He covered his face and sounded somewhat
remorseful.
“I’ve invested all my money. I was really too desperate. I approached the person in charge of that casino, and they
promised to give me a chance to make a comeback and get it all back. It’s just for ten days.”
An exasperated shareholder just wanted to kick Mr. Lawrence. “It’s been half a month now. You’re not a kid
anymore, so do you believe such bullsh*t? How did the company recruit people like you i n the first place? You’re
simply a failure!”
Mr. Lawrence looked up pleadingly.
“Mr. Sheldon, please don’t call the police! Can we settle this matter privately? I’ll get the money back. I promise!”
Lance’s gaze was dull.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Mr. Lawrence, I really underestimated your naivety. You still expect to get back $200 million from the casino? We’ll
certainly get that money back, but you’re not the one to do it…”
His voice was cold with a bit of indifference and gloom.
“The police will come later. You’d better cooperate with the police to explain things clearly. If we can successfully
get the money back, for the sake of your two-year contribution to the company, w e won’t pursue other losses
caused by you. What do you think?”
Up till now, Lance still looked like he was in a discussion. Latest chapters only infobagh.com Although he looked
calm and cool, Lance did not give Lawrence a chance.
Lance only showed Lawrence a little mercy.
This bit of mercy was close to nothing, but for Mr. Lawrence, this was considered a huge pardon.
After all, once the company pursued the losses, the other compensation could add up to nearly $20
million more.
At this moment, Lawrence could not fork out $20 million. He almost divorced his wife because of gambling. If he
had to bear the additional debt, it was equivalent to forcing their family of two to a corner.
Lance appeared to be ruthless, but in fact, he was considered very nice.
Yvette sat there and could not help but look at him again.
Lawrence did not think much about it and could only nod his head in agreement.
Indeed, there was little hope of getting that money back on his own.
Even if he fought for it with his life, it was impossible to get it back successfully.
Since this matter had already been exposed, there was no reason to continue pretending.
“Thank you, Mr. Sheldon… I’m sorry...”
Mr. Lawrence trembled and bowed slightly at Lance.
The conference room was silent.
Lawrence was then led out.

“You really can’t judge a book by its cover! How could he have that thought when he’s in that position? He really
betrayed our trust! So many projects have gone through his hands, so who knows if there are other shady things? I
think we should look into all of them!”
“That’s right, Mr. Sheldon. We can’t let him off so easily. We should start investigating him from the beginning. He
even dares to siphon off $200 million! How shameless!”
“We’ve only been in Atlanta for a short time and haven’t even gotten a firm foothold here yet. How could this kind
of thing happen? Isn’t it a joke? If this matter isn’t dealt with ruthlessly, I think that others will follow suit. What if the
$200 million can’t be recovered?”
Lance indifferently lowered his eyes and listened to their words.
Finally, after their wrath, Lance slowly spoke when he saw that their anger finally died down. “I’ll ask the relevant
authorities to recover the $200 million. It’s only a matter of time. But this position is now vacant. Mr. Lawrence has
numerous projects on hand, so I’m afraid that it’ll affect the overall situation…”
Before Lance could finish, another shareholder that had been scolding Lawrence earlier immediately said, “That’s
right. Since this position hasn’t been confirmed, why don’t we get Director Collins to temporarily take over?“
