Chapter 1974
Chandler was shocked. After looking at how nonchalant and indifferent Keegan was, he fell into
disbelief and said, " You're planning to use this incident for publicity?"
Keegan replied flatly, "Chandler, have you already forgotten the time you ordered Jackson to donate
expired bread after the earthquake happened in Langetown not long ago? Our reputation that was built
over the decades and the countless donations we've made all went down the drain.
"Our PR team is still trying to resolve the negative impact you have caused the company. Now, I finally
have a chance to turn things around. Chandler, as a businessman yourself, what do you think a
businessman would do?"
Chandler's expression turned ugly. "Keegan Kane, have you lost your mind after falling into the water?
Are you seriously going to use your biological mother for a publicity stunt? Are you crazy?"
Keegan played with the Newton's cradle on his desk and smiled with his gaze lowered. Then, he calmly
said, "My mom has always wanted what's best for me. Despite facing all the criticism from others, she
insisted on organizing a funeral for me, hoping that I could rest in peace.
"Now, if we could improve the company's image just by sacrificing her alone, I'm sure that she'd
understand my decision."

Keegan slowly looked up. "Chandler, I've already discussed this PR plan with the executives. In the
meeting later, everyone is free to express their opinions.
"Let's see if they'll agree with my proposal. You always like voting because it's fair, right? Honestly, I
couldn't agree more."
Chandler was so angry that his hand trembled.
Usually, whenever the two had different opinions in the company, Chandler would initiate a vote.
After all, Keegan joined the company after Chandler, and he did not have a deep foundation and
extensive connections like him.
In the earlier years, Keegan would lose almost every time. It was not until later when Keegan's team
started achieving results that the tide began to turn. After all, the shareholders only cared about money
and their personal interests.
So, Keegan was simply saying that to mock Chandler.
Dahlia was just someone who was not directly related to the Kane family. Compared to the company's
image and potential profit, it was obvious what the shareholders would choose.
Chandler might have many connections in the company, but no shareholders would be foolish enough
to prioritize their relationship with him over their personal interests.
Besides, Keegan had already notified the company's executives about it beforehand, leaving Chandler
with no time to come up with a decent excuse.
Chandler was about to say something more, but his phone rang.
Upon seeing Cyrene's name, he declined the call without hesitation. Soon, Keegan's phone started
ringing, and he answered it. He even put the call on speaker mode.
Cyrene's voice came from the phone. "Keegan, where's your uncle? I want to speak to him!"
Keegan glanced at Chandler's stern face and said slowly," Go ahead, Cyrene. He's right here with me."
Cyrene immediately exploded in anger. "Chandler Kane!
How dare you hang up on my call?"
Chandler replied in an unhappy tone, "I'm discussing business here. How can I answer your call?"
"What kind of business? A discussion about how to get Dahlia out? If you do that, I'll go to the police
station right away and report her for playing Mah-Jongg to bribe others!"
Chandler's expression darkened. "Are you crazy? Don't you often invite your friends to play Mah-Jongg
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmat home too?"
Cyrene sneered. "I play Mah-Jongg for fun, but I can't say the same for Dahlia. She lets whoever that's
beneficial to her win.
"And, she and her friends play on such high stakes. Who knows if the game is just an excuse for her to
bribe her friends?
"If you don't stop trying to get her out, then we might as well go down together!"
Chandler was so angry that his heart ached. "You're starting trouble out of nothing!" he scolded.
"Go ahead! Try me!" Cyrene abruptly hung up the phone upon saying that.
Keegan looked at the pale-faced Chandler and added, "A wise wife is the best thing a man could ever
ask for. I have to say, Chandler. You're really fortunate to have such a virtuous wife."
Chandler was filled with anger, as his face turned even gloomier. When he was about to leave, Keegan
said, "Wait."
Then, Keegan glanced at the assistant standing next to Chandler and said in an unfriendly tone,
"Chandler, Aldor is a core member of ALEX, and even Grandma would show him some courtesy. Your
assistant is really something. How dare he hurt Aldor!"
