Twins - The Unforeseen Legacy of My Ex's Uncle-in-Law novel Chapter 279

"I think it's quite alright."

Harlan breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, aware that Enoch wasn't exactly his biggest fan and fearing criticism, he had put extra effort into today's presentation.

He politely responded, "Doing my best for the company is what I'm here for."

Enoch chuckled at his words and then announced, "Let's have Derek Larkin take it from here."

Derek, another leader within the company, was present today and had always been in competition with Harlan.

Originally, he was Kendrick's nephew and also worked for the company.

Derek was taken aback by Enoch's decision, "Me? But this project has always been under... I mean, Harlan's supervision."

"Do you have a problem with that?" Enoch inquired.

Of course, Derek was more than willing! He was previously well-regarded within the company, back when Harlan was practically a non-entity in comparison.

However, ever since Harlan got together with Lilith, Derek's days had become increasingly challenging.

Yet, he never imagined such an opportunity would suddenly fall into his lap.

The people present were surprised and looked towards Harlan... What was going on?

Why would Mr. Taylor make such a decision about Harlan out of the blue?

Could it be that Harlan had somehow displeased Mr. Taylor?

They all knew about Mr. Taylor's temper.

Once he deemed something good, there would be no turning back.

At that moment, Harlan's face turned dark.

He couldn't believe what he was hearing and managed to control his emotions as he said, "Mr. Taylor, this project has always been under my charge."

This was unfair!

Enoch was going too far!

Derek responded, "Will do, I'll give it my all."

Harlan didn't utter a word, just slammed the documents down and stormed out of the meeting room.

Enoch glanced at him, resting his hands on the table, and remained silent.

As everyone watched Harlan leave in such a manner, the unsettled meeting continued.

Drusilla was lounging on the sofa, waiting for Enoch, noticing everyone was still inside while Harlan came out looking quite upset.

"What's got Mr. Stanton so bothered?" Drusilla teased.

He seemed pretty pleased when he walked in earlier.

Harlan didn't even make a sound this time, just stormed off with a dark expression.

Watching his retreating figure, Drusilla, who was initially in a bad mood due to the events of the previous night and contemplating the issues between Colton and Cormac, suddenly felt her spirits lift at the sight of Harlan's displeasure.
