Shut down?

The security guards were so alarmed by the threat that they could not breathe.

They had been training for a while. They could fight, but Hugo’s status was different He dealt with the production process. No

matter how well they could fight, they could not mess with him.

“What a bunch of idiots.” Hugo harrumphed and waved his hand. “Come with me inside! We're doing a spot check!”

The other staff followed Hugo into the building.

The security guards looked at them alertly. The leader of the security guards gritted his teeth and turned to run toward the

training ground behind the building.

He had to inform Alexander about this at once, in case Hugo was trying to find faults! Miss Chesire would be in trouble then!

Meanwhile, at the general manager's office on the building’s top floor.

Amber, sitting behind her desk with a financial statement in her hand, sighed in

relief.

The company was no longer lacking in funds. After Caspian’s promise of a loan the

last time, the first installment of the loan had arrived. All the staff's salaries have been paid, too.

Gone were her worries as everything fell right back on track.

Just when she was engrossed in her thoughts, her door flung open.

“You're Amber Chesire?” Hugo strutted into her office with his staff. He swept Amber a gaze and sneered. “We've received a tip—

off that New Chesire Group’s production process does not comply with the regulations. You’re now ordered to

rectify the situation for the next six months.”

What?

Amber sprang up from the chair reflexively.

Rectification? Half a year?

According to the regulations of the Food and Drug Administration, once companies. were ordered to rectify the situation, all the

factories under the company had to reduce production. They were not allowed to put new products into the market for half a

year. They even had to redo all the paperwork needed for the factories‘

operations.

It was no exaggeration to say that a rectification of 10 to 14 days would cost the company hundreds of millions of dollars. A

rectification of half a year? Even a billion

-dollar company would be finished!

“Might I ask which rule is our company in violation of? Why the order for

rectification?” Amber asked, suppressing her shock. She said calmly, “Mister Jean,

as you know, New Chesire Group used to

be the Severn Group. There is no problem

with the production process. If...”

Huge slammed her desk and said arrogantly, “Are you trying to drive a bargain with

me? What a terrible attitude! I say it has problems, it has problems! This isn’t a

request for rectification. This is a mandatory order! Inform all your staff and put

them on a long holiday! Before the rectification is done, no one is allowed to come

back to work!”

Amber turned pale at this.

Amandatory rectification?

If it was just a usual rectification, they could still be in production and placed the

products in temporary storage. Putting it up on the market once more after the

rectification.

If it was a mandatory one, all of the factories would be forced to stop production

New Chesire Group was truly doomed!

“M-My apologies, Mister Jean.” Amber bit her lip, looking extremely aggrieved. “Our

2.3

company has just gotten on track. We have eight thousand staff; that’s eight

thousand families to feed! If I put them on leave, their lives...”

“Enough with the nonsense!” Hugo looked arrogant. “If you try to bargain with me one more time, I'll revoke the company’s

licenses. New Chesire Group can shut down for good!”

Amber shuddered. She almost fell to the couch.

Revoking the licenses meant that New Chesire Group would go bankrupt for good. They would have to recall all the products in

the market as well as pay the fines to the respective collaborators.

How could Hugo be so ruthless?
