Chapter 328 - Conscientiousness

The other six people looked at each other.

Were they interested? Of course they were!

Who would be willing to be fired from their jobs?

"Will it really work?"

"What's the plan?"

"What do we need to do?"

...

The six of them immediately started asking.

After successfully arousing their curiosity, Adrian said with a mysterious smile on his face, "I'm sure you guys have heard of Charlie Franco, haven't you?"

"Charlie Franco? Are you planning to ask him for help?" Jimmy asked with shock written all over his face.

"Charlie Franco? Who's that?" Of course, the rest hadn't heard of this name before, so they hurriedly asked Jimmy about it.

Jimmy frowned and said in disbelief, "I've only heard of this person's name, but I haven't met him in person, nor do I plan to cross paths with him. I just heard that Franco is the owner of Snowflake Entertainment and has plenty of underlings who often do dirty deeds for him. Besides, Franco is very ruthless. He's an ex-convict who has caused grievous harm to many people. Most people don't dare to offend him."

His words made everyone's heart skip a beat.

One of the former senior executives said without hesitation, "Adrian, are you planning to…" He slid his palm across his neck. "… hire someone to kill William Carter?"

The rest immediately looked at Adrian with bizarre gazes.

Indeed, Adrian naturally hated William to the core and wished that he would die sooner, especially since William was now the general manager of the Solar Corporation's Orange County branch office; while he, the former deputy general manager, had been driven out of the company!

Although they would usually accept bribes and fabricate false business expense claims out of greed for money, they would never dare to hire a hitman!

Besides, getting William killed would only allow Adrian to vent his anger and wouldn't bring them any benefits at all. Only a fool would be willing to follow Adrian's plan!

Seeing everyone looking at him in horror, as though they had seen a terrifying existence, Adrian pursed his lips and hurriedly explained, "No, no, you've got the wrong idea! Why would I hire a hitman to kill William Carter? Even if we kill him, we won't be able to go back to the company, and it won't benefit us in any way. Why would I bring up such a suggestion?"

Everyone finally looked more relieved.

"What's the plan you're talking about then? Hurry up and tell us!"

"That's right. Stop being so wishy-washy and making us guess! What are you planning regarding Franco?"

Two impatient people urged.

"Don't be in such a hurry and hear me out. Franco is indeed a ruthless and troublesome person, but he's not as terrifying as the rumors make him out to be. Although Franco is now the person in charge of Snowflake Entertainment, Snowflake Entertainment belongs to the Taylors, one of the four most powerful families in this county. In other words, Franco is now working for the Taylors. Even if I want to hire him to kill someone for me, he definitely wouldn't agree to it. So don't get the wrong idea.

"However, we can hire Franco to work for us. Once he can help us block the warehouse and export outlet of the branch office for a period of time and demand that I be present before he stops, I can guarantee that that scoundrel William Carter will definitely be at a loss for what to do. When the time comes, he will naturally beg me to go back to the company!

"As soon as I return to the company and become the general manager, I'll be able to immediately hire all of you again. Not only will you be able to return to your original positions, but I can also fulfill all the promises I've made to you before!"

After listening to Adrian's explanation, they seemed to be interested in his plan.

The Solar Corporation's Orange County branch office was mainly operating a logistics and transportation business. So the warehouse was the most important aspect. If people blocked it for just half a day, it would result in extremely severe consequences, let alone a day!

Adrian's plan seemed quite a good idea in their opinion.

"Will that bastard William Carter give up the position of general manager to you and ask you to return to the company?" someone asked doubtfully.

Adrian said with certainty, "Given William Carter's capability, he's definitely no match for Franco. If Franco refuses to give in, there's nothing William Carter can do. And once he fails to solve the problem, the company will suffer major losses. At that time, he will have to resign and leave the company disgracefully. He might even have to compensate the company for the massive losses incurred!

"If he comes to me for help and lets me become the general manager, I might be kind enough to give him a job. I believe he won't turn me down as long as he isn't a fool!"

Everyone finally suddenly realized that Adrian was planning to force William into stepping down.

His plan seemed somewhat feasible.

"However, the Solar Corporation is under the Stardust Corporation, and the chairman of the Stardust Corporation was on William Carter's side today. If William Carter seeks help from him, I'm afraid your plan won't work out," Jimmy said worriedly after some thought.

Adrian remained composed. "Don't worry. The Stardust Corporation is no longer as influential as it used to be. Everyone used to respect them because they were supported by the powerful Hutton family. Who would dare offend them? But the Stardust Corporation has already been abandoned by the Huttons, and it's now just an ordinary large enterprise that's incomparable to the top four families of the county!

"Moreover, I heard that this chairman is also at odds with the Huttons. Why should we be afraid of him then?

"Another reason I've decided to seek help from Franco is because he's backed by the Taylors. Even if the chairman of the Stardust Corporation wants to help William Carter, will he dare to stand against the Taylors?"

Adrian smiled smugly while the remaining six people secretly admired him for his conscientiousness.

It turned out that he was just planning to have someone block the warehouse of the company. But Adrian had put so much thought into it without missing a single detail, and he even made sure to leave no stones unturned. They were thoroughly in awe of him!

"So, what about it? Do you want to join me?" Seeing the looks on their faces, Adrian smirked with a look of determination.

"Okay. As long as you can hire someone to carry it out flawlessly and let us return to the company, we'll obey you! Tell us what you need us to do!"

Jimmy and the others thought about it for a while and finally agreed to work with Adrian to carry out his plan.

"First things first, it's very expensive to hire someone as powerful as Franco. We need 450 grand in total to hire Franco. Each of you will just need to chip in 60 grand each, and I'll cover the remaining 90 grand," Adrian said smilingly as if he was being very generous.

"What? We have to chip in 60 grand each!?!"

"That's too much money! That's more than what I took home each year when I worked at the company!"

"If I can come up with so much cash right now, why would I bother trying to return to the company?"

"Exactly! Are you kidding us?"

They were all aghast to hear the amount of money Adrian wanted each of them to contribute.
