Chapter 893 Why Are You Capturing Mr. Griffin?
âNot to mention he puts his heart and soul into his work over the years, while youâve only guided the people around you without bothering to provide him with a basic salary increment.â
Desmond raised his chin high and laughed proudly while he was speaking.â However, the first thing Iâll do is to guide and support Reagan when I assume my new role, so he will be promoted to the position that he deserves!â
Reagan felt slightly guilty initially, but his gaze was tainted with determination and coldness when he looked at Brendan upon hearing the remark. He said to Desmond flatteringly, âThank you, Mr. Griffin.â
Desmond cracked a smile in pride. âIt is what you deserve from the start, and I wonât treat you poorly, of course.â
Brendanâs expression was indifferent, and his dark eyes were deep. He asked Reagan, âIs this the condition he offered you?â
Reaganâs expression changed, and he cleared his throat. âI donât understand what youâre implying, Mr. Brighthall. I understand Mr. Griffinâs intention to consider the company. Is there an employee who doesnât wish to work for a capable and sagacious leader?
âI feel that Mr. Griffin is definitely going to lead the company to become better and not be affected by a womanâ¦â
Reagan did not finish his sentence, but the people around him could not help sniggering.
Deirdre clenched her fists tightly when she heard the mockery. âWonât be affected by a woman in what way? Youâre not going to say that Mr. Griffin wonât abandon the company for a woman, arenât you? If that is the case, I believe that youâre right. After all, Mr. Griffin would abandon his loyal, abiding wife to fool around with a bunch of women. Women are nothing to Mr. Griffin.â
Desmond was furious upon hearing that and pointed at Deirdre while he said, âMiss McKinnon, you have no place to speak here!â
The next moment, his fingers were clenched tightly and forcefully bent backward.
Brendan exerted strength to tighten his palm, and Desmondâs face flushed and turned pale in pain.
âIt will be best if you can mind your own hand and not point at people recklessly, Mr.
Griffin. Otherwise, I wonât show mercy when I teach you a lesson.â âYou have lost your mind, Brendan!â âMr. Brighthall, what are you doing? For a womanâ¦â
Desmond pulled back his hand with all his might in pain and only managed to pull back after a few attempts. Yet, his expression was already unpleasant from the sharp pain, and he had no choice but to scrutinize the man before him.
âBrendan! How dare you attack me!? Youâre done! The police are here, and Iâm going to make sure that they punish you for being an accomplice with multiple harboring crimes!â
Desmond felt humiliated. Meanwhile, the door of the hall was kicked open. A group of men in uniform entered the hall from the outside, and the spacious hall was filled with an oppressive presence instantly.
âThe police are here.â
Desmond became proud and glared at Brendan. âYouâre doomed!â
Deirdre could not help feeling anxious. Even though she had no idea why the police did not attempt to capture her again, it was indisputable the police were there.
Brendan would most certainly be implicated if Deirdre was captured.
A police officer said, âWho called the police?â
Mr. Church immediately stepped forward and said, âI did!â
He pointed at Deirdre and said, âThe criminal showed up at the companyâs internal event ostentatiously and caused panic. Capture her quickly! Also, there is Brendan Brighthall. He is guilty of harboring a criminal and has also injured someone!â
The police officer immediately walked over. Desmond was feeling extremely proud.
Unexpectedly, in the next moment, his hands were in handcuffs.
A clamor broke out instantly.
Mr. Church was astounded. âHold on! Sir! Are you capturing the wrong person? These two people are the guilty ones! One of them is a criminal, while the other is harboring a criminal. Why are you capturing Mr. Griffin!?â
