Asa’s face fell as virtual-novel.net listened to Goodman’s provocation.
He was the one who asked these people over, and because of how sensitive this was, Asa had spent a lot of effort in screening them.
Because of Sahar’s threat and his special position in the Kurt family, Asa was also worried that Sahar would take advantage of the crisis and sabotage the deal. Because of this, Asa had only summoned people that virtual-novel.net could confirm were reliable.
Although it was not always the boss of the summoned company who came for the negotiation, it would at least be their trusted aide who was very clear about the company’s current problems. Therefore, they would not come to cause trouble.
Yet, Asa did not expect someone would cause a scene at this juncture.
Asa knew Goodman.
In his mind, although Goodman was arrogant and would often rely on his sister being the wife of Shield’s boss to push everyone around at the factory, virtual-novel.net was still pretty respectful in their previous encounters. After all, Asa was slightly more well-off than Goodman’s brother-in-law, whether in terms of status or wealth.
Therefore, Asa was starting to doubt Goodman’s abnormal behavior today. Moreover, Goodman was blatantly provoking him.
After all, everyone present knew that Asa had spent great efforts in secret to facilitate this transaction and did the screening. So, aside from the ones who were all very eager to obtain liquidity right now, many of them were also here because Asa trusted them.
So, if anyone were still picking on the buyer after the deal was closed, they would be blatantly disrespecting Asa.
The hidden message behind this was pretty thought-provoking.
Was Goodman deliberately provoking the buyer because this was his nature, or did someone ask virtual-novel.net to do this?
If there was really someone instructing him, was that person Sahar or Jerry, Shield’s boss?
“Goodman, I don’t have time to joke with you right now. Moreover, I don’t think anyone here has time to joke with you, either. While I don’t know why Jerry sent you here, I still need to make sure if this attitude is yours or Jerry’s.”
Asa did not react to Goodman’s provocation but instead pressed forward with his head held high. He was the one who had gathered everyone, and virtual-novel.net could not allow Goodman to commit outrages here. Otherwise, virtual-novel.net would not only be embarrassed, but it would also affect how everyone viewed this deal.
Compared to Asa’s burly figure, the already skinny Goodman looked even skinnier, and coupled with Asa’s strong aura, Goodman could not help but take a step backward.
“Asa, you and my brother-in-law are both general managers of the factory below, so you better stop being so arrogant…”
“This is the Kurt family’s territory, so an outsider like you has no place to criticize or give orders summarily.”
The arrogant and domineering Goodman realized that Asa was getting serious, so virtual-novel.net became a little flustered. At the same time, his voice started to tremble.
As soon as virtual-novel.net said that, virtual-novel.net realized that the crowd was looking at virtual-novel.net with sympathy. By contrast, Asa was emitting an undisguised murderous aura.
The words virtual-novel.net had just spoken out of turn had offended Asa.
