Mia, too, turned her attention to Timothy, curious to hear what Heath had relayed.
With a stoic expression, Timothy broke the silence, "Heath is already handling the termination of the partnership on behalf of the company; it just requires a bit more time." "Tim, there's something off about this. Given that it's just a minor branch, why would Heath need to make a personal visit to cancel the partnership with the Bowen family? Is it possible that there's opposition from someone within the subsidiary?" Caleb found it hard to believe. Couldn't this issue be resolved with just a phone call? Why would it take extra tto handle? Could it be that there were different factors at play in Nord City compared to Bern City? Timothy paused before speaking, "My uncle Ralph orchestrated the entire affair. He's been staying under the radar and hasn't shown up yet." "So, it was him, huh? I remember he was kicked out of the Barrett Group due to bribery. Your mother certainly stirred up quite a rift between you two. And after that, I heard he vanished without a trace. It turns out he ended up at the Nord City branch," Caleb recounted.
"That's right," Timothy confirmed. "I honestly didn't expect my mother to arrange for Uncle Ralph to be transferred to the Nord City branch." "It's no wonder such a bizarre event unfolded at the subsidiary office. With Mr. Hopkins pulling the strings, it's expected he'd join forces with the Bowen family. They're all a bunch of dimwits anyway." Mia couldn't shake off the memory of Ralph's character-the epitof a man who lived off his family's wealth.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs for Sharon, she was undeniably a sinister woman.
Given Timothy's principles, he would probably have taken legal action against Ralph long ago for his involvement in bribery within the company.
Yet, Sharon resorted to emotional manipulation, unleashing a series of tic outbursts, and even threatening self-harm. She wept in front of Laura for days until Timothy eventually relented on pursuing legal action against Ralph.
Ultimately, Sharon reached into her own pocket to cover the substantial amount lost due to Ralph's embezzlement and mismanagement of funds.
Reflecting on Ralph's questionable character, Mia couldn't help but empathize with Timothy.
She stole a glance at him and remarked, "Handling this situation could be rather challenging don't you think? if you move forward with terminating the partnership, Ralph is likely to create quite a commotion. He's not one to back down easily." Indeed, stirring up trouble seemed to be Ralph's forte.
Timothy's response was cold and resolute. "Our company's policies and standards will not be compromised for anyone." Inwardly, Mia couldn't help but scoff.
It was evident that the collaboration with the Bowen family hadn't followed the standard procedures and approvals within the company.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf it were merely a minor agreement, the Bowens wouldn't be making such a public spectacle of it.
And if it were a significant collaboration, it surely wouldn't have bypassed the company's rigorous review process.
Hence, the only plausible explanation was that Ralph had been involved in dubious transactions with the Bowen Group.
It was no surprise that when Heath visited the subsidiary earlier to end the partnership with the Bowen family, Ralph had been dodging meetings with him.
As a result, this led to a delay in resolving the issue.
Mia regarded Timothy seriously and advised, "I believe your priority now should be to address the partnership issue with the Bowen family at the office.
"Ginger is progressing well in her recovery and is ready to be t Schar the hospital. With a family doctor available at hto monitor her condition, there's no need for her to remain hospitalized." Timothy furrowed his brow in response. "Are you sure there are no concerns regarding Ginger's ongoing treatment?"
