Chapter 367 Freya tactfully hid behind Angela and Zack, trying to minimize her presence as much as possible.
Angela glanced at him, feeling that his thin face exuded a sense of righteousness. She couldn't help but develop a favorable impression of him. "Are you Maverick Newton?" Maverick frowned, staring intently at Angela, whose expression was layered with complexity. He said firmly, "Who are you then? No matter who you are, leave my house now." "He doesn't even recognize the CEO. What good can he be?" Zack thought, casting a doubtful glance at Maverick before shifting his gaze to Freya.
Freya felt even more awkward and murmured, "Mr. Newton, this is Ms. Angela Graham, the CEO of Graham Group. You must have seen her picture online, right?" Maverick was nonchalant. "So what? I've already submitted my resignation. I'm no longer a part of Graham Group, and I have nothing to do with it. Stop bothering me." He seemed quite irritated.
"Mr. Newton, Bryan has already been dealt with by Ms. Graham. He won't be able to target you anymore. You're so capable and principled.

Angela asked earnestly, "Mr. Newton, may we cin and have a conversation? You mentioned that you submitted your resignation, but for positions at the level of the department head and above, hiring or dismissal requires approval from the executive office. So you're technically still employed." In other words, he still had to listen to her.
Maverick felt conflicted. He felt utterly stifled but had no choice, so he reluctantly stepped aside to let Angela enter his house.
It was a small duplex townhouse. It wasn't very spacious and had a simple interior design. At a glance, it was clear that it was the hof a socially dull man who had little demand for material luxuries.
Maverick brought over a few glasses of water and sat down on the couch. "Say what you need to say directly." He carried himself well, exuding the quiet arrogance of someone truly capable.
Angela took a tablet out of her bag and pulled up a profile on Maverick.
"Bill sent you here three years ago to take the lead. Even though you were just a deputy general manager, you leveraged your connections and single-handedly built a new branch company from the ground up. But later, Bryan turned against you-" Maverick seemed to be struck by a blow. He took a deep breath and interrupted, "Enough! That's all in the past. I've decided to let it go. Graham Group has nothing to do withanymore." "That's a bit extreme, don't you think? You've been with the company for ten years. No matter what, there should be sattachment. Don't act on impulse. I'm here to solve problems.
"Bryan is being dealt with, and I need someone competent like you to keep making an impact. There's no reason to leave at such a critical moment." Angela's voice carried a hint of helplessness, but even more, a sense of hope.
"Celestia Jewels has ended up in such a state. Bryan does bear great responsibility, but so do I. More importantly, it's my duty to set things right and restore order. "Angela's voice was firm, carrying a sharp intensity.

Maverick was momentarily stunned.
He looked at her in disbelief. Aren T in e.
Sist you really from the headquarters?" Angela was rendered speechless.
"Of course! She's the CEO of our company. Bryan is nothing compared to her.
She has the final say on everything," Zack stood up and exclaimed.
Maverick's brows remained tightly furrowed as he stared intently at m Angela, staying silent for a long time.
Angela got straight to the point. "I need your help. Starting tomorrow, you'll be the genera manager of the company. I'll be here to support you, and together, we'll get the company back on track."
