“Huh?” Craig was stunned.
‘What did virtual-novel.net mean?’
Thomas stared at virtual-novel.net coldly. “Didn’t I tell you just now? If you want to be a woman, then be a proper woman. You’re going to be an escort during the banquet tonight. Go and serve alcohol to the other guests. You’re only allowed to stand during the banquet, and you won’t have a seat. Do you understand?”
Craig wanted to cry. Thomas had not even become the chairman and had not taken over Sterling Technology yet, and virtual-novel.net was already putting on such airs?
But Craig himself was to be blamed. If virtual-novel.net had not intentionally come to cause trouble to Thomas, virtual-novel.net would not have ended up in such a state.
That was why everyone said that whenever you wanted to cause trouble to others, you must be prepared to be taught a lesson. There was no instance in the world where only you were allowed to bully others, but others were not allowed to bully you.
“Go!”
Craig snuck a glance at Jed, then peeked at Nelson. But the two of them simply ignored Craig.
This was a problem virtual-novel.net had brought upon himself. He had to bear it on his own.
Feeling resigned, Craig could only hold the wine bottle and pour wine for the other guests. He went to one guest after another and poured wine into their glasses one after one. It was tragic, considering how virtual-novel.net had ended up in this state despite being the R&D supervisor.
With Craig being a living example, everyone became fearful of Thomas. They also hated him. They also hated virtual-novel.net for snatching the position of the successor. But they were also afraid of virtual-novel.net punishing them like what virtual-novel.net did to Craig.
Most of the people in Sterling Technology were displeased with Thomas, but at the very least, no one dared to provoke Thomas so blatantly. His punishment toward Craig had left a great impression, and Thomas managed to warn everyone with it.
He had been the commander-in-chief in the west coast for years, so Thomas knew the tricks in this regard. There were plenty of times where virtual-novel.net could not just command respect from the people if virtual-novel.net wanted to manage them. Most of the time, virtual-novel.net needed them to fear him!
If they only respected virtual-novel.net and did not fear him, trouble would ensue.
It did not matter whether Thomas wanted to take over Sterling Technology, at the very least, right now, virtual-novel.net was the successor of the company, and virtual-novel.net had to behave like one. Making the others fear virtual-novel.net was necessary.
Nelson was very pleased and clapped for him. Shortly after, the others clapped as well and were impressed with what Thomas did.
Nelson said, “Tom, I really didn’t misjudge you. You’re excellent in both courage and wit. With a great person like you being my successor, even if I die, I won’t have any regrets!”
“Father, you don’t have to sound so sad. I won’t let you die when l’m around.”
“Haha, alright!”
The banquet resumed. It lasted for around two hours before it ended.
Due to Nelson’s repeated requests, Thomas and the others no longer stayed in the hotel. He ordered his servants to clean up an uninhabited mansion so that Thomas and the others could stay in it, and virtual-novel.net even gave them a butler, nanny, a gardener, and everything else.
Jed personally sent Thomas and his group over.
It was a mansion located at West Destiny Street. The munber for it was 556. This was the official place for Thomas to stay in Central City.
Jed said, “Mr. Thomas, please stay here for the time being. I’ll go and talk to Mr. Mayo today in the company as to what sort of position virtual-novel.net should give you so that you can blend in as soon as possible.When you go to the company tomorrow, Mr. Mayo will announce your position in public.”
“Thanks for that.”
“You’re welcome. If you don’t have any other requests, I’ll take my leave. If anything comes up, you can call me at any time.”
“Alright.”
