Chapter 639: A Thorough Investigation


Frey was now truly terrified.


He had been with the Heavenly Pavilion for more than ten years and now had the position of general manager. He enjoyed glory, and his ambitions were all fulfilled.


The Heavenly Pavilion was the largest antique store on this street. With the excellent work conditions provided by the Parkers, the annual salary, including the overriding commissions drawn from his sales team easily, amounted to more than $200,000. Coupled with the little tricks that he had resorted to in secret, he had managed to acc.u.mulate a considerable fortune for himself within just a few years.


If he got sacked, how could he possibly get a good job now that he was almost 50 years old?


Moreover, he would definitely get a bad rep for being dismissed and kicked out of the company. In particular, he had been working here for more than ten years, and the people in the industry basically all knew him. Once the news of him being fired by the Parkers spread, no business in the antique industry would dare to hire him.


In short, if Frey was fired from the Heavenly Pavilion, it would be over for him.


So even though he was old, he could only go all out and get on his knees to beg Kenneth while putting all the blame on Kylie.


Filled with disbelief, Kylie looked at the old man who had always treated her as a gem with great disappointment.


At this moment, Frey was obviously going to make her take the blame and completely abandon her!


“Hah, why should I keep an incompetent man like you whom women can manipulate at will in the Heavenly Pavilion?” Kenneth said coldly, not moved by Frey at all.


Frey’s face stiffened, feeling that he had shot himself in the foot by saying those words just now. He hurriedly changed his statement and begged, “Mr. Parker, I admit that I was muddled for a moment. But please forgive me this time for the sake that I have been working diligently in the Heavenly Pavilion for more than ten years. I ought to deserve credit for my hard work! Please don’t kick me out of the Heavenly Pavilion! I am already so old, and I’m just a couple of years away from retirement. Mr. Parker, please…”


Before he finished speaking, Kenneth was already annoyed with his incessant rattling and the fact that he kept throwing his weight around as a veteran employee. He directly interrupted, “Hmph, you still want to stay in the Heavenly Pavilion to retire? Okay, you don’t want to leave, huh? I’ve given you a chance, but since you don’t cherish it, don’t blame me for being nasty!”


He glared at Frey and took out his phone to call his a.s.sistant. “Go and investigate the general manager of the Heavenly Pavilion in San Francisco. I don’t know his name, but he has a fat face and large ears. Screen through all the company accounts that he has handled, as well as the economic activities he has partic.i.p.ated in. If you find any irregularities or negligence in his duties or abuse of authority for personal gains, report to me immediately! If anyone dares to conceal any information, you know what to do!”


“Mr… Mr. Parker…” Frey immediately felt as if he had plunged into the ice cellar as he shuddered uncontrollably.


Although the Parkers were the owner of the Heavenly Pavilion, they didn’t send their descendants to manage it directly. It could be said that all the financial activities of the Heavenly Pavilion had been handled by Frey in recent years. As long as the profit figures of his quarterly and annual reports tallied, the Parkers wouldn’t intervene in the actual operation of the store.


In this situation where he was given great power without supervision, Frey’s boldness and appet.i.te got bigger and bigger. He even secretly did lots of terrible things.


Now, Kenneth was really going to send people to investigate him. Since it happened too suddenly, Frey simply didn’t have time to deal with the aftermath.


As soon as he thought that things he had done might be exposed, Frey was drenched in sweat. He hurriedly said, “Mr. Parker, I-I know my mistakes now! I’ll leave the Heavenly Pavilion immediately!”


Then he wanted to turn around and leave.


Now, he only wanted to get away and prayed that he would be lucky enough for the Parkers not to discover him. He obviously couldn’t be bothered about the person who wanted to continue staying in the Heavenly Pavilion to make money.


“Hold it!” Kenneth yelled coldly to stop him. “You chose not to leave when I allowed you to do so earlier, and now you want to escape because you’re afraid that you’ll be implicated once the investigation results are out. When the investigation results are out, I’ll let you leave if you’re innocent!”


Kenneth initially didn’t plan to pursue the matter against Frey.


He was the scion of the Parkers and in charge of many of the Parkers’ companies, so he understood that being overly strict might not allow people to reap enough benefits. He knew that many senior executives would make use of their jobs to reap some monetary gains for themselves, but he also knew that it was commonplace.


So at the beginning, he simply chose to dismiss Frey without looking into his behavior at work on account that Frey had indeed worked for the Heavenly Pavilion for more than ten years.


However, not only had Frey not been grateful for his graciousness, but he had even thrown his weight around using his experience and credit. Kenneth didn’t want to indulge him any longer.


In particular, Frey and this silly woman had both offended Lucas! Even Kenneth didn’t dare to be rude to Lucas. How could they have the audacity to offend Lucas?


Seeing how resolute Kenneth was and realizing that there was no room for discussion, Frey appeared desperate and full of regret.


When he saw Kylie sitting next to him, his remorse immediately turned into immense fury, spurring him to raise his hand to slap Kylie on the face.


Smack!


A bright red slap mark appeared on Kylie’s face.


Frey grabbed Kylie’s hair and whispered into her ear sinisterly, “You stupid woman, this is all your fault! If you hadn’t made trouble with someone here and called me to help you by misleading me into thinking that someone was causing trouble here, things wouldn’t have turned out like this. Idiot! I’m telling you, if something happens to me, you won’t have it easy either! Whatever it is, anything that happens to me will happen to you too. Don’t you forget!”


He was venting his anger and also giving her a warning.


Frey was telling Kylie that if Kenneth discovered his misdeeds, Kylie would also be implicated because she was his accomplice!


At this moment, Kylie was s.h.i.+vering incessantly.


After getting fired from the Heavenly Pavilion, she had indeed lost a great money-making job. But if the Parkers found out what she and Frey had done, she would probably have to go to jail for the rest of her life!


The thought of the consequences made Kylie so terrified that she was about to wet in her pants.


She immediately turned to face Lucas, knelt by his feet, and pleaded, “Lucas, no matter what, we’re former college cla.s.smates. Quickly help me beg for mercy from Mr. Parker! Otherwise, I’ll be in huge trouble. Hurry up and ask him to spare me!”


Seeing the drastic difference in Kylie’s att.i.tude now and that of her arrogant self minutes ago, Lucas only found it ridiculous.
