Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At Porthampton University, in the chancellor’s office.
Dylan and Jesse were shocked when they saw the middle-aged man walking into the office.
“Mr. Morgan, why are you here today?”
Jesse quickly stood up and walked up to the middle-aged man, asking flatteringly.
“Yes, Mr. Morgan, aren’t you supposed to be at the school board meeting today?” Dylan asked.
The person who appeared in the chancellor’s office was Thomas Morgan.
When Thomas introduced Connor’s grandfather and cousin’s inheritance to him, he even mentioned that Connor’s grandfather’s cousin was also the president of the board of directors of Porthampton University.
After Connor’s grandfather’s cousin died, Thomas took his place and became the acting chairman of the board of directors.
Connor was fearless because he knew that Thomas was the president of the board of directors of Porthampton University. That was why he was so calm.
It could be said that the chancellor of Porthampton University was entirely up to Thomas.
As long as Connor didn’t want to leave, no one in Porthampton University could expel him!
Porthampton University itself was a private university. The shareholders invested all the funds in the school board.
The Empire World Corporation, which Thomas Morgan managed, held 71% of the shares of Porthampton University. It could be said to be the largest shareholder of Porthampton University.
Connor was Thomas’ boss, meaning the entire school belonged to Connor. What right did Jesse have to expel Connor?
Thomas glanced at Jesse and Dylan indifferently and ignored them.
Instead, he bent down and walked before Connor, respectfully saying, “I’m sorry, Mr. McDonald, I’m late!”
When Jesse and Dylan heard Thomas’ words, their mouths were wide open, and their expressions were extremely shocked.
They never thought a poor kid like Connor could know a big shot like Thomas.
Jesse’s brows began to furrow, and cold sweats kept appearing on his forehead. At this moment, he finally understood why Connor was so arrogant and even dared to say that no one could expel him.
If Connor knew Thomas, Jesse did not have the guts to expel Connor.
“It’s okay. You’re not late!” Connor replied indifferently. Then, he stood up and asked Thomas, “Mr. Morgan, how many shares do 1 own in Porthampton University now?”
“Mr. McDonald, you now own 71% of the shares of Porthampton University and have absolute control!” Thomas hurriedly replied.
When Jesse and Dylan heard this, they were dumbfounded again.
They couldn’t understand why Connor would suddenly own 71% of the shares of Porthampton University. Shouldn’t these shares belong to Thomas Morgan?
“Jesse, I forgot to introduce you. This is Mr. McDonald. He is also the only legal heir of the Empire World Corporation. Therefore, the 71% shares of Porthampton University that the Empire World Corporation previously owned are now all owned by Mr. McDonald. I have always been the acting chairman of the board of directors, but now that Mr. McDonald has inherited the Empire World Corporation, the position of the chairman should belong to Mr. McDonald!” Thomas turned to Jesse and said calmly.
Although Thomas’s voice wasn’t loud, his words sparked a storm in Jesse and Dylan’s hearts.
Who would have thought that this ordinary-looking poor kid who usually made a living by delivering food would suddenly become the heir of the Empire World Corporation and the president of the school’s board of directors?
To Jesse, this was like a bolt from the blue!
Jesse did not know how powerful the Empire World Corporation was, but he knew how terrifying Thomas was.
At this moment, even Thomas had become Connor’s subordinate. Connor’s influence was simply unimaginable!
“The entire school is mine now. Do you still want to expel me?” Connor took a step forward and asked Jesse softly with narrowed eyes.
“Conn… Mr. McDonald…”
Jesse hurriedly took two steps back. A trace of fear flashed in his eyes before he fell to the ground with a thud.
Connor looked at Jesse, who was scared shitless by him, and smiled coldly. Then, he turned to Thomas and asked, “Thomas, do I have the right to change the chancellor?”
When Jesse and Dylan heard Connor’s words, they became even more fearful.
“Mr. McDonald, a board meeting is needed to replace the school’s chancellor, and it needs the approval of 51% of the shareholders. However, you now have 71% of the shares, so you can symbolically hold a board meeting,” Thomas said slowly.
“I know!” Connor nodded lightly and looked at Jesse. “I told you before that unless I want to leave, no one can expel me. Now, not only can you not expel me, but 1 will also fire you!”
When Jesse heard Connor’s words, his face instantly turned pale, and his entire body went limp.
He had never expected that this seemingly poor student in front of him was such a strong existence!
Who would have thought that a rich kid who had inherited the Empire World Corporation would be so bored that he would be delivering food at school and pretending to be poor?
“Mr. McDonald, will you retire Chancellor Jesse from his position now?” Thomas stepped forward and asked Connor.
“Mr. McDonald, no!” Jesse hurriedly kneeled on the ground and shouted.
“Mr. Morgan, Mr. McDonald, it’s indeed my fault today. I was unaware of who 1 was dealing with and offended Mr. McDonald. You two can punish me however you want, but please don’t fire me. After all, I’ve been at Porthampton University for so many years. Even if I don’t have any merit, I’ve worked hard!” Jesse begged.
After hesitating, Dylan kneeled on the ground and said to Connor, “Mr. McDonald, we failed to recognize you today and offended you. I beg you to give us another chance. Please don’t fire us!”
Dylan was not a fool. He knew that the reason he could do whatever he wanted at Porthampton University was all because of his uncle, Jesse.
If Connor fired Jesse now, it would not end well for him.
Connor narrowed his eyes at the two people kneeling before him. He was filled with disdain.
Dylan and Jesse, who were still swaggering around, were kneeling in front of him like dogs, begging him to let them go.
If Connor was just an ordinary student, he might not have had a chance to explain himself today and would have been expelled by Jesse.
Therefore, Connor naturally wouldn’t let them off easily!
Jesse looked at Connor abnormally nervously, hoping Connor would let him off.
Originally, as the chancellor of Porthampton University, Jesse could decide Connor’s student status with a single word.
However, they had swapped positions. A single sentence from Connor could determine Jesse’s career..
