Alfin couldn’t be quite still.
“I know you’re crestfallen. I also know you don’t like Harry’s overly dictatorial attitude. However, are you not outrageous by cursing Harry had an accident? You expected him to get hurt? And you wish you could change the company rules at will?”
It’s called crazy and it didn’t make any sense. So, where was the common sense of all the directors sitting in this room?
There were only a few people who remained silent and chose to lift their feet out of the room after realizing this mess was a waste of their time.
Someone was surprised.
“You’re still here?”
Panic was seen again because they knew Alfin was on Hary’s side.
Alvin nodded.
“Yes. I’m still here. And I heard everything you guys were complaining about just now. Then, I’ll pass it on to Harry directly!”
Alfin decided not to linger. He left there with his arrogance then slammed the door.

“I really don’t understand what they’re thinking! I have been heard Harry’s performance was excellent. He seldom gives a failure. The profit of this company was growing rapidly also thanks to his efforts. But alas, those people were still trying to find loopholes?”
Oscar, Dirga, and Sofia were already in Harry’s office room. They had made sure nobody followed them into the room. Dirga also showed a look of not understanding.
Oscar looked at Sofia and Dirga one by one.
“How was my acting? Very good and satisfying, right?” Oscar praised himself and asked someone to match his words.
Dirga was forced to reply.
“You are so extraordinary, Sir. Your acting was stunning. Your speaking ability was also unquestionable.”
Oscar seemed satisfied with the compliment. He glanced at Sofia with a pleasing look. Sofia didn’t share her pride feeling. Vice versa, she remained Oscqt.
“Don’t be overconfident and proud for just tricking a few people, Oscar. You still have a long way to step and many people will see you. So, keep your attitude always and stay calm with Dirga!”
Oscar nodded in understanding and agreed.
“Alright. Alright. And alright. I can see and understand what you exactly mean. So you don’t have to keep saying it over and over again! Because anything in excess will never end well!”
Alfin suddenly knocked on the door. He turned his head and greeted everyone in the room.
“Hi! Excuse! Are you all in here?” he asked cheerfully.
Sofia gave a displeased look.
“What is it? You need something?”
Alfin pursed his lips.
“I just want to hang out with you guys. But I actually got a sharp look from you, Grandma?”
Alfin glanced at Oscar.
“Then one more time. As usual. I admire your performance, Har! You always seem amazing and reliable.”
Alfin’s proud expression quickly changed.
“But, Uncle Mustache’s behavior is getting more and more out of line!”
Sofia and Oscar narrowed their eyes.
“Keep bullying this family and wanting to bring you down. Have they forgotten all the great services you have bestowed on this company? Gives multiple benefits! They forgot that you were the one who made them able to make hundreds of millions of coffers of money?!”
Dirga and Sofia are now starting to understand where Alfin’s protest was headed. Oscar showed his curiosity.
“What have they said? You heard something?”
Dirga and Sofia show the same interest.
“Not many. It’s just that they dared to swear you had an accident. They grumble your health is still stable. Though the rumors about your accident may have already spread.”
Dirga and Sofia looked at each other.
“Because of that, I became peeved and didn’t want to hear their complaints anymore. Even though, many people of them are afraid of your threat, Grandma!”
“But, just be careful. Because I believe they might be waiting for an empty gap to stab you.”
Sofia covered her dark expression.
Oscar did not dare to comment. He was afraid of saying the wrong thing. He didn’t want to get too involved either. Although, now. He plays the figure of Harry. He was sure Harry wasn’t a man to comment at length either.
“I will help Mr. Harry deal with the directors. You don’t have to worry.”
Alfin asked a new question that had surprised and curious for a long time.
“Is it true that Cleo is pregnant? She’s pregnant with your child?”
Oscar raised his eyebrows.
“Is there another father who might be the father of that child?”
Alvin rolled his eyes.
“Of course, not.”
Sofia gave Oscar a certain look.
A secretary came into Harry’s room looking for his boss.
“Mr. Alvin. You have an important task in 20 minutes. You must have a meeting with the company Agromeda. They were already on their way here. You better get ready.”
Oscar put on a wry face.
“He is one of the most chatty and annoying investors I have ever met. I couldn’t possibly keep him waiting. I also have to be prepared because they don’t like to beat around the bush.”
Oscar glanced at Alfin’s departure with a flat gaze. He was looking at Dirga and Sofia with sharp eyes after did that.
“What should I do after this? I’m sure you won’t just be asking me to sit down and play a game!”
“That’s much better, Sir. Instead of you wandering go here and there without a clear purpose. You’d better stay in this room until office hours are over. You are to be free to do what you like and want, as long as it doesn’t arouse suspicion.”
Dirga issued his master’s agenda.
For the daily schedule, I have moved everything to tomorrow. Today you are quite adaptable to the circumstances around this office. While helping me sort through some paperwork if you don’t mind.”
Oscar pointed to Harry’s desk.
“Is that pile you’re talking about?
Oscar gave a scornful look.
“And then, you think I’ll be of use?”
Dirga shrugged his shoulders. He didn’t expect too much. He only wished that someone would help him.
Sofia thought back to Oscar’s words.
“You two have seen a gynecologist. Then, what did she say?”
Dirga representing Oscar answered Sofia’s question.
“Mrs. Cleo is pregnant with twins, Madam. And for accuracy, we still need to wait until the gestational age enters the 20th week.”
Sofia couldn’t hide her surprise.
“Cleo is pregnant with twins?”
Dirga nodded.
“Yes, Ma’am. And in the future, I have asked Mr. Oscar to curate his activities in the home. He had to make himself keep be outside of the residence as much as he could. And only came back when Mrs. Cleo was asleep.”
This choice, according to Sofia was very appropriate. But she still had to be vigilant.
“Don’t you ever try to touch my daughter-in-law! If anything happened to her! Or you are being rude to her! I will make sure to break both your legs and arms!”
Oscar gulped and shuddered.
“You are so cruel. Even though I’ve helped you to this far!”
Sofia had no intention of making concessions. She just was still worried if Cleo realized their lie.
Sofia stood up and walked out.
“I’m going to check on Harry. You guys finish any business on here!”
