Chapter 294
Chapter 294
It was like he honestly believed he could see through everyone and everything, and then just decide what was right or wrong
for them.
Back then, Emily hadn’t thought much of it. She’d even felt proud to have such an impressive big brother. But now, she just felt sick to her stomach, utterly repulsed.
Emily didn’t bother hiding the look of disgust on her face. She was just about to say something when someone nearby suddenly gagged, loud and dramatic.
She turned to see Austin holding up his phone with one hand, the other clapped over his mouth, looking like he was about to puke.
When he saw both of them looking his way, Austin gave Andrew a huge, exaggerated eye roll.
Austin mocked, “You just open your mouth and demand Emily’s shares, acting like you’re doing them some huge favor. Why don’t you hand over your shares to me, huh? Let me return the favor for once.
“Honestly, you should stop pretending to be the CEO of Bennett Group and go mix cement on a construction site. I have never seen anyone more shameless than you.”
Austin practically spat out his status as the CEO of Bennett Group, like he was trying to make a point.
Austin never used any swear words when he insulted someone, but every single word he said hit like a punch to the gut.
Andrew had never been humiliated like this in his life, and yet every single time, it was Austin who managed to make him lose face.
“You-” Andrew scowled, pointing at Austin in fury, about to snap back, when his eyes suddenly caught sight of the phone Austin was still holding up.
“What are you doing?” Andrew suddenly had a bad feeling in his gut. As he spoke, he immediately lunged for Austin’s phone.
But Austin was already on guard. He dodged to the side and hid behind Emily in a flash.
“Emily, look at this. He’s actually trying to fight me. Is this what passes for CEO behavior at Bennett Group?”
Austin put on his best pitiful act, but he didn’t forget to throw Andrew’s title back in his face for good measure.
Andrew had no clue what Austin was up to with his phone, but Emily could see right through him.
