Chapter 18 The New President Will Help Me

Everyone turned to look at who it was.

Four people were standing at the door of the room.

There were three men and one woman.

The one in the lead was a beautiful woman in a business suit, exuding a mature and sexy

aura.

Seeing this person, Quinn was like a puppy seeing its master, running over with a fawning face. “Ms. Lindsey, why are you here?”

It was the vice president of Maple Properties, Alexia.

In fact, Alexia had arrived before Joshua came.

She had been waiting for Joshua in the box with several business bigwigs.

Just now, she heard the noise of fighting downstairs.

Alexia was worried that Joshua would be affected.

She immediately went downstairs with her friends.

And she didn’t expect Joshua to be involved in this accident.

Moreover, the person who offended Joshua was the manager of the company’s HR Department, Quinn.

This made Alexia annoyed.

Quinn still did not know what Alexia was thinking and secretly glanced at the three people beliind her.

He could not help but feel nervous. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

They were the president of Prosper Group, Harrison Carroll, the president of New York Bank, Brenton Ford, and the boss of Golden Gate Hotel, Camden Noel.

These were all influential figures in New York.

Why were they here with Alexia?

At this time, Alexia looked at Quinn coldly and asked, “Were you the one that wants to

represent Maple Properties?”

Quinn shuddered as he hurriedly explained, “Ms. Lindsey, it is all because of Joshua. He is the one who ridiculed our Maple Properties in public and hired a group of gangsters to pressure us on purpose. As a member of the company, I can’t stand it. That’s why I said such words to protect the reputation of the company. Ms. Lindsey, please help me.”

At the same time, Reece also hurried over. He flattered the square-faced man behind Alexia, the president of Prosper Group, Harrison, and said, “Nice to meet you, Mr. Carroll. My classmate is right. Joshua not only insulted Maple Properties but also our Prosper Group. I argued strongly, but this guy is insatiable and unforgivable.”

After that, he and Quinn looked at each other, knowing each other’s thoughts.

They thought, although Rex is powerful, with the help of Alexia and Harrison, we can make Rex give in.

At that time, Joshua will be screwed.

They had to maintain their dignity.

Hearing their words, Alexia did not expose them and only said to Quinn meaningfully, “It just so happens that I have to treat the new président to a meal today. It is more appropriate for him to make the decision.”

Hearing this, Quinn immediately became nervous and expectant. “Ms. Lindsey, when will the new president come? I will definitely perform well in front of him.”

Quinn also turned to threaten Joshua, “Idiot, you will be screwed. Wait for our new president to teach you a lesson.”

Joshua shrugged and smiled, “You may be disappointed. I don’t have any intention of punishing myself.”

Quinn didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Joshua, are you fucking delusional? You are just a fool who cleans the toilets in the company. Do you deserve to be the president? That’s impossible.”

However, to Quinn’s surprise, Alexia walked quickly to Joshua and bowed respectfully, “Hello, Mr. Palmer,”

Joshua nodded.

Quinn was shocked.

Alexia smiled and introduced others to Joshua, “Mr. Palmer, these are Mr. Carroll of Prosper Group, Mr. Ford of the New York Bank, and the boss of Golden Gate Hotel, Mr. Noel. Today, they are here to congratulate you on being the new president.”

After the introduction…

Harrison and the other two took the initiative to shake hands with Joshua.

“Mr. Palmer, you are so young and promising. I’m pleased to see you.

“In the future, I hope we can cooperate well with each other,

“Mr. Palmer, I will propose three toasts to you later.”

Their attitudes were completely different from that of the students just now.

It was well-known that Maple Properties was worth nearly 1.6 billion dollars. As the president, Joshua had more wealth than the three of them did.

Besides, Maple Properties was the core industry of Maple Group, and Alfred was in charge of it. They had to take the initiative to get closer to Joshua.

Of course, they did not know the true relationship between Joshua and Alfred.

Otherwise, they would have knelt down and shown great respect for Joshua.

At the same time…

Quinn and Reece were completely dumbfounded.

They didn’t realize what had happened.

Wasn’t Joshua the lowest person in class?

How did he become the new chairman of Maple Group?

They couldn’t believe it at all.

That was impossible…

They didn’t want to believe it.

However, the performance of Alexia and the other big shots had already proved the

truth.

These kinds of big shots did not have the time to act for them.

At this moment, they realized that they would be screwed for causing trouble.

Especially Quinn, who was dizzy, thought of how he arranged the job of cleaning the toilet for Joshua.

He didn’t dare to recall what he had done to Joshua.

As for the other students, although they did not know a big shot like Alexia, the identity titles that they had heard in the conversation just now were enough for them to know the explosive news.

Joshua, who was looked down upon, became the president of a company with a market value of 1.6 billion dollars.

They ridiculed Joshua without knowing anything just now.

This time, the students didn’t even have the courage to face Joshua.

Jamel, whose head was smashed, crawled to Joshua with a sullen face and knelt down to beg for mercy, “Mr. Palmer, I … I’m sorry. I failed to recognize your identity and offended you. Please forgive me this time.”

Jamel was full of regret.

It turned out that Joshua was not bragging when he said that Jamel shouldn’t offend

him.

If Jamel knew Joshua was so powerful, he would not dare to offend Joshua at all.

Joshua put on a poker face when he heard Jamel’s begging. Joshua said indifferently, “Did you just grab my friend with your left hand?”

Jamel trembled.

He instantly understood something.

“I get it. You don’t have to punish me. I’ll do it myself.”

Jamel grabbed a broken piece of beer bottle from the ground with his right hand. Gritting his teeth, he suddenly exerted force with his right hand and ruthlessly stabbed the broken glass towards the palm of his left hand.

Suddenly…

Blood splashed.

Jamel’s body trembled, but he did not say a word.

And he did the same thing again.

Later…

After he stabbed his left hand about seven or eight times…

“That’s enough.”

Joshua stopped Jamel.

At that time, Jamel’s entire left hand was badly mangled, and the white bones were visible.

His face was pale, and his lips trembled.

It could be seen how intense the pain was.

“Thank you, Mr. Palmer, for being so magnanimous…” Jamel bowed respectfully.

“Go away.”

Jamel felt relieved and did not dare to delay for even a second. He brought his subordinates and ran off immediately.

Reece and Quinn in the room were extremely scared.

They didn’t expect to see such a cruel scene in real life. They were totally shocked by what they saw.

In their eyes, Jamel was already a gangster leader whom they didn’t dare to offend.

Jamel just grabbed Amiah and scolded Joshua.

However, Jamel had to do self-mutilation to apologize.

Reece and Quinn treated Joshua with the most ruthless, mean, and vicious words.

They even forced him to take off his clothes and dance.

They didn’t know what kind of punishment they had to receive in order to get Joshua’s forgiveness…
