Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Mr. Hoffman couldn’t help but frown when he heard this. He quickly realized what was going on.
The company that this shareholder belonged to had indeed cooperated with the Empire World Corporation before. However, Mr. Hoffman was on a business trip at that time, so the person who received this shareholder was likely another manager of Empire World Corporation.
The Empire World Corporation was the largest investment company in the area. Other than Thomas Morgan, who was the Chairman, and Connor, who was the controlling shareholder behind the scenes, there were four or five regional managers in the company, and each manager was responsible for a different area.
Among these managers, Mr. Hoffman had the most authority.
Meanwhile, everyone was shocked when they heard the shareholder’s words.
This shareholder was the CEO of a listed company, so he should have no reason to lie at this time.
“Connor, do you have anything else to say now?” Cody put down his phone and asked Connor coldly.
Connor narrowed his eyes as he looked at Cody. His expression was very calm; he knew that Mr. Hoffman was the real deal. No matter what, the real thing would never become fake.
“Connor, you’re really too shameless. You actually found an actor to fool us!”
When Maya saw that Connor was not saying anything, she felt that Connor had already tacitly agreed to this matter, so she shouted at Connor excitedly.
“Even if Mr. Hoffman is a fake, would his money be fake?”
Connor was not in the mood to explain these questions to these people, so he just grunted expressionlessly.
Cody looked at Connor and mocked him. “Hehe, Connor, it’s already this time, yet you’re still playing pretend? Is it difficult for you to admit that you’re a loser? What good will it do to keep this charade up?”
Freya was staring at Connor. She did not know if ATr. Hoffman, whom Connor had found, was from the Empire World Corporation or not.
At this moment, Connor suddenly turned his head and said to Mr. Hoffman, “Mr. Hoffman, don’t waste time with them. Get your company’s people to transfer the money over!”
When everyone heard Connor’s words, they were stunned on the spot.
A trace of confusion flashed across Cody’s face. He couldn’t understand why Connor would ask Mr. Hoffman to transfer money if this man was an actor he’d hired. Wasn’t he digging his own grave?
Connor knew that it was normal for the shareholders in the meeting room to suspect Mr. Hoffman’s identity. After all, in the eyes of these people, Connor was just a poor loser who delivered food for a living; there was no way he’d know the general manager of the Empire World Corporation.
Connor and Mr. Hoffman were effectively from two different worlds. Therefore, in the face of Cody and the others ‘doubts, Connor did not want to explain anything, so he just asked the people from the Empire World Corporation to transfer the money over, and everything would be revealed.
Connor had plenty of money now. 100 million was nothing to him, so he wanted to use this money to slap Cody and the others in the face.
After hearing Connor’s words, Mr. Hoffman nodded his head heavily, then picked up his phone and walked out of the meeting room.
After seeing Mr. Hoffman leave, everyone had a complicated look in their eyes. The entire meeting room fell into silence.
“Is Mr. Hoffman really from the Empire World Corporation?”
Cody seemed a little uneasy at this time. He quickly took out his phone and wanted to call his father to ask if there was a person named Mr. Hoffman in the Empire World Corporation.
However, before Cody could make the call, Mr. Hoffman rushed back to the conference room and said to Connor with a very serious expression,”Mr. McDonald, the company can’t transfer the money over yet!”
The news had everyone in an uproar.
Cody revealed a proud smile and slowly put down his phone. He sighed inwardly. “You really gave me a fright. I thought Connor really knew the CEO of the Empire World Corporation. So he was just acting…”
Connor also stood up abruptly and looked at Mr. Hoffman beside him. After hesitating for a moment, he asked in a low voice, “Why?”

Mr. Hoffman turned his head and glanced at the other people in the conference room. Then, he said in a low voice,”Mr. McDonald, let’s go out and talk!” “Right!”
Connor nodded his head lightly and got up to leave.
“Connor, how long do you plan to act with us? Can’t you just admit that you’re acting? 1 don’t think Freya will do anything to you. What’s the point of you holding on like this? Won’t you be exposed sooner or later?” Cody coldly asked.
Connor turned his head and looked at Cody coldly without saying anything, then turned around and followed Mr. Hoffman out of the meeting room.
Freya stood rooted to the ground in a daze. Her expression was one of puzzlement because she did not know if Connor was lying to her at all.
Cody turned his head and asked, “Freya, it’s already come to this. You can’t still believe Connor, right?”
“Yeah, Freya. This Connor is a liar! That Mr. Hoffman is probably an actor he hired. Connor has been lying to you from the start…” Maya shouted excitedly.
“Why would Connor lie to me? And he even went through so much trouble…What benefits can he get out of this?” Freya looked at Maya and asked. “What benefits can he get? He wants to marry you, cousin. He doesn’t want you to be with Mr. Shenaur. He wants you to stay!” Maya quickly replied.
Freya shook her head and said softly, “But if he does this now, it’s impossible for him to lie to me. So I don’t think Connor is lying. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have signed that contract yesterday.”
At this moment, one of the shareholders looked at Freya and said, “Oh Ms. Phillips, you’re still too young. 1 think this kid has been acting from the start. How could a person like him know the CEO of the Empire World Corporation?”
Freya rubbed her temples and said with a tired expression, “Alright, telling me all this now is useless. If Connor lied to me, then Mr. Hoffman definitely won’t invest in our company. If Connor didn’t lie to me, then I’ll hold up my end of the bargain!”
“Then let’s just wait and see. 1 think this kid will definitely continue acting. In a while, he will definitely tell us that there’s a problem with the Empire World Corporation’s investment company and that he can only transfer the money to you tomorrow. Then, he will find an excuse tomorrow and deliberately shirk it. In the end, you’re the only one who will be deceived, Freya!”
Cody looked as if he had victory in his hands because he was very sure that
Connor and Mr. Hoffman were both liars..
