Chapter: 1342

Everyone kept silent, trying hard to avoid meeting Odin's eyes. They just wanted to escape this place.

“Mr. Sullivan, don't worry. Although your brother is not in the company, we're tied to our oath to be diligent with our work, and we will do better than when he was in the company. Rest assured that we won't slack off!"

“I apologize. I shouldn't have doubted your dedication," Odin returned with a ghost of a smile.

Beads of sweat started to glimmer on the forehead of the man who just spoke, and he swallowed.

"The Sullivan Group is lucky to have talents like you." Odin made his tone sound casual, hiding away the threat with a faint grin.

"But work can wait. Why don't you stay and listen to the good news

I brought?"

Looking at the men in black with cold faces, they didn't think

Odin's words were a question; it was an order.

Everyone's eyes fell on Ivan, seeking help from the dilemma they didn't want to be in.

Ivan couldn't figure out what was in Odin's mind. A frown crippled the serenity he was sporting as he stood his ground against Odin. He was still thinking about the sudden disclosure about Victor's detainment.

Odin turned around and said, "Ivan, I don't think it's too much to keep you a moment. Am I right?"

"Mr. Sullivan, don't say that. I'm just an employee of the Sullivan

Group. I should do what the leader asks me to do."

"Then please go back to the meeting room."

Although Ivan was livid about receiving orders from him, he kept his lips tightly shut, and Odin was pleased to see that.

A group of more than a dozen people returned to the meeting room in confusion. They just came out five minutes ago. What else should they discuss?

Walking at the back of the line, Ivan took out his phone and called

Carson. The phone kept ringing, but two minutes passed and all he could hear was a beeping sound. The frown on his forehead creased more. As soon as he raised his head, he caught sight of Odin's meaningful. smile.

Ivan put away his phone, walked into the meeting room and sat down.

The announcement Odin was going to make should be the answer to all of his perplexity.

"The first good news is that I will hold a board meeting in this same room in a week."

A hiss slithered neatly across the meeting room, echoing all the way, and all heads turned to Ivan sitting in the front.

An apparition of frown evinced on Ivan's countenance but only for a fleeting moment. He pacified himself before asking in a deep voice,

"Does your brother know about it?"
