Chapter: 41 "Corruption in such a small project is outrageous," Brandon remarked sharply...mThe middle-aged man turned pale as he read the document. He tried to respond, his body trembling, but Eugene gave a signal. The doors swung open, and the company's internal inspection team entered, escorting him out."Mr. Watson, I'm sorry. Please forgive me!" The middle-aged man's desperate voice faded into silence as he was led away, leaving the room eerily quiet. Brandon cast a cold glance around the room, making sure everyone understood the consequences."Meeting adjourned," Brandon announced, standing and walking swiftly from the room.w.l. Eugene accompanied Brandon back to the CEO's office. Noticing Brandon sink into the executive chair and rub his forehead tiredly, Eugene instructed an assistant to bring coffee immediately. Brandon massaged his temples, briefly closing his eyes. Exhaustion weighed heavily on him. He knew perfection was unattainable, especially within a massive corporation like Watson Group, where internal problems naturally arose. He understood that clearly. But recently, he couldn't pinpoint why the fatigue felt deeper than usual.w.oe.c He heard footsteps approaching, followed by a gentle sound of a cup touching the desk."Brandon, drink some water. You've been working too late lately, and you need to take care of yourself. I've added that special essence you like." Oddly enough, the voice seemed familiar to Brandon. When Brandon opened his eyes, however, he saw Eugene standing there. Looking down, he found only a steaming cup of coffee on the desk. A faint tension pulled at Brandon's lips as he pressed them together in silence."Mr. Watson, do you not want coffee?" Eugene asked, noticing Brandon's mood. Brandon's brow creased slightly, unsure about his own complicated feelings.w.em.m" know it's normally Mrs. Watson who gets your water ready," said Eugene, his voice apologetic. " couldn't find whatever essence she adds, and you looked exhausted, so just went ahead and brought you coffee."Yes, it had always been Millie beside him while he was working late. Brandon closed his eyes again, feeling his headache grow stronger."Should give Mrs. Watson a call and check with her?" Eugene asked carefully.
