Chapter 281
Harold merely shook his body, and Lacie was thrown backward. She barely managed to find her balance. “You loser! How dare you push me!”
Enraged, she lifted her hand to slap Harold. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
Almost instantly, Craig stopped her, looking horrified.
“Mr. McGowan, not only did he hook up with Marilyn and ruin our company's reputation, but he even wants to hit me now! If we don't teach him a lesson now, he'll only get worse.”
Lacie started snitching on Harold when she saw that it was Craig who held her back.
Marilyn's career will surely be over because of this issue. This means I will be the most popular celebrity under Craig's label. Even if he finds out that I'm behind Marilyn's scandal, he can't do anything to me unless he wants his entertainment company to go under! Before he manages to make anyone else rise to fame, he will have to treat me like a princess!
Slap!
Just as Lacie was thinking of her grand plan, Craig landed a hard slap on her face, totally bewildering her.
She held her burning cheek in disbelief and only managed a few words after some time. “Mr. McGowan, what—”
“Who the f*ck gave you the right to speak to Mr. Campbell like that? If you dare disrespect him again, you'll be severely punished!” Craig scolded.
The next second, he turned around and did something that flabbergasted Lacie and Kornel.
With his head lowered, Craig said shamefully, “I'm sorry, Mr. Campbell. I... I've failed to train my people properly yet again. I deserve to die!”
Then he started slapping himself continuously.
He had said those words to Harold countless times, so much so that he started to feel embarrassed instead of afraid.
Every time, he would promise not to allow mistakes to happen, but after some time, his foolish subordinates and employees would do something to offend Harold again.
Craig was so ashamed that he wished the ground could swallow him up.
Harold, who was initially overcome with rage, rubbed his temples helplessly upon hearing those familiar words from Craig.
He was already sick of lecturing Craig. In fact, he found the situation somehow ridiculous.
In the end, he could only sigh and say, “If you can't do it, then don't give me promises. Make them delete the photos and videos right now.”
Only then did Craig heave a sigh of relief.
He turned to Lacie and Kornel, who were still dumbstruck, and stared at them.
Unable to bear the pressure, Kornel slumped to the ground and pointed at Lacie, confessing, “Mr. McGowan, I-I'll tell you everything. This was all Lacie's idea. I only did as she told me. I have nothing to do with this!”
“Tell us what really happened. If you tell the truth, I might consider sparing you two,” Craig uttered in an icy tone.
Seeing that the cat was out of the bag, Lacie collapsed to the floor.
Even Craig, the Underground King of Dellmoor, acted so respectfully toward Harold.
She figured out then and there that this young man must be the legendary big shot behind Craig and James.
