Sir, How About A Marriage?

Chapter 221: Admission of Guilt

Everyone gradually quieted down under Mu Chen’s frosty gaze.

When everyone was finally silent, Mu Chen brought the documents out and began to read them out loud.

His words were roughly the same with only a few changes here and there: A certain person, at a certain time and day, did this and did that, resulting in what kind of consequences, and said person will be removed from their position, effective immediately.

The list of names and charges was very long. Every time a name was mentioned, there would be another ashen face in the room. Those who were named were fired or demoted; their crimes were listed clearly with sufficient evidence to back the claims.

Mu Chen did not leave the culprits a chance to refute or fight back at all.

After Mu Chen was done, he handed the documents to Second Granduncle Mu.

Not only were Second Granduncle Mu’s hands trembling when he held the documents, but his voice was trembling as well as he asked, “Mu Chen, did you really arrange all this? Everything is just a trap to catch the traitors in the family?”

Mu Chen said in a deep voice, “Second Granduncle, this purge is necessary. The loss incurred from this trap is worth it. If we don’t do this, the family and the company will only continue to degenerate. At that time, let alone calculate our losses, we won’t even have a company. Do you really think I went too far?”

Second Granduncle Mu looked at the list of names. His chest heaved up and down. He said furiously, “Sinners! You unfilial descendants! How dare you set foot in our ancestral home today! I’m already so old, and yet, you dare to use me to ruin the family! Useless! You…” He could not finish his sentence and began to cough violently.

Mu Chen hurriedly strode forward and patted Second Granduncle Mu’s back to help ease his discomfort. Then, to soothe Second Granduncle Mu’s anger, he said in a low and gentle voice, “Please calm down, Second Granduncle. It’s my fault for not informing you of this in advance. Please forgive me.”

Despite Mu Chen’s low volume, everyone heard his words clearly. At this time, everyone had different expressions on their faces.

Thud!

At this time, someone had kneeled in front of Mu Chen and Second Granduncle Mu.

“Second Granduncle, I know I’m wrong! I was deceived! Someone tricked me!”

Then, another person kneeled.

“Brother Chen, I was wrong! I was wrong! Please give me another chance. I was deceived by that lowly person’s slanderous words. Brother Chen, please give me a chance to turn over a new leaf!”

“Second Granduncle, we were wrong. Please don’t be angry! Please intercede on our behalf. We were wrong, but we were deceived!”

“Mu Chen, what will the Mu family be without its members? Please give us another chance! We were wrong; we promise to do well in the future!”

Mu Chen, we were wrong; we won’t deny it. We’re willing to bear the losses. Just give us another chance. Please don’t remove our names from the family registry. Please give us another chance!”

“Second Granduncle, please speak on our behalf! We were wrong! We know we were wrong!”

Those who were involved fell to their knees one after another, pleading with Second Granduncle Mu and Mu Chen. All of them cried out loudly, admitting their mistakes and promising to represent. It was over; they lost! No one expected Mu Chen had orchestrated the entire thing, luring them into a trap. How ruthless! Billions were lost just for this trap; he did all these things just to catch the traitors. Indeed, he was worthy of being the head of the Mu family. No one in the family would be able to emulate his boldness and decisiveness.

The traitors felt sick with regret. Why did they not sit back and enjoy what was given to them but decide to switch allegiance? Why could they not see that the person whom they wanted to remove was the reason they were able to enjoy the things they had today? Just because of a few sweet words, their greed overwhelmed them and caused them to do such a stupid thing. However, who could they blame for their stupidity? They could only beg Mu Chen for forgiveness now.
