Betrayed by Four: Reborn, Their Rival Mafia Lord Became My Husband - Chapter 689: Chapter 689

"Your new company is doing well." Eddie said.
As expected of his son, he was a business wizard.
In terms of business acumen, he had to admit that he was really old and couldn't compete with the young man.
"It's okay. Compared to the current Walton Corporation, it's still just enough."
"How did you suddenly hire so many employees and get started so quickly?" Eddie felt puzzled.
For a company to grow, it needed good employees.
Although there are many people who need job opportunities, those who can get started so quickly are not so easy to find. There is likely just one in a hundred.
But how did Hurley manage to develop so well in such a short time?
"To be honest, that is thanks to you and Uncle Benedict." Hurley drank the coffee that the waiter had refilled with milk.
"What do you mean?" Eddie was taken aback.
"Those are the people you sent me."
Almost all of Walton Corporation's employees were top notch, either with very good education or outstanding ability. The fruits they reaped were directly proportional to their own abilities.
Such people, casually going to a new company, would require very powerful figures, and it was completely hard to come by.
On the other hand, Benedict did not understand these things at all and used many excuses to fire these people.
But for Hurley, it was a good thing, because Hurley gathered all those people.
Those people all knew Hurley's abilities, and how acts decisively. They could quickly understand Hurley's wishes and achieve the effect that Hurley wanted, so they cooperated very well.
Later, some people resigned from Walton Corporation one after another, and by the end of the new year, Eddie fired another wave of people. All of those people were contacted by Hurley and are now working for him.
Hearing Hurley's words, Eddie also understood.
"I see."
He also wondered how Hurley was able to find so many qualified worker in such a short time.
It turned out that Hurley was so good at using talents. He had already planned it out, and every step he took with Benedict might be within Hurley's plan.
"Is there anything else?" Hurley glanced at the watch on his wrist and continued to ask.
"I plan to go back abroad." Eddie said.
He had already come to his senses. There seemed to be no room for him there. Walton Corporation was in chaos now, and he thought it might be better to leave it to Hurley.
"When?" Hurley asked.
Eddie said, "Just in a few days."
"What about the company? Don't you care about the company the most?" Hurley questioned.
Eddie went back to the country just for the sake of the company, and now the company was in shambles.
Eddie said, "Now Benedict has been imprisoned. There are many people who can't stand him, and he probably won't be able to get out for a while. I'm also most assured that the company will be handed over to you back. Those shareholders all want you to go back." Walton Corporation can't survive without you.
"Walton Corporation? I won't go back yhere6."
"Hurley, you're already an adult, how can you say such willful words? The company is the hard work of our ancestors, how can you be like this?"
"You're the one who's kidding around." Hurley said coldly, "You didn't take the company seriously. Without you and Benedict, we wouldn't have come to this point. Now you realize that you can't save the company at all and that you don't have the ability, so you think you can leave just by saying so, and you can give it up if you, right?"
"I don't not want the company, but I know that only by handing it over to you can it go back to how it was before. I also know that you can't really give up on Walton Corporation."
Eddie only dared to be so certain because he had grasped Hurley's heart.
He knew that Hurley was a very responsible person and would not just watch the company go bankrupt.
"You all didn't want to see me, so I had no choice but to leave."
"Don't make it sound so pitiful. The way the company is now is all your own fault." Hurley also did not expect Eddie to be so irresponsible.
In some ways, Eddie was really a failure.
"I know, you look down on me as a father, or rather, you don't want to acknowledge me as a father at all." At that point, Eddie paused, "But Hurley, the company is the hard work of our ancestors, I hope you can return to Walton Corporation."
Hurley stared at the person in front of him. He had always been like that, doing as he pleased.
At that time, he left everything behind and went abroad. Hurley didn't know whether to get used to it or hate him.
"I won't return to Walton Corporation. If you really don't want it anymore, then wait for it to go bankrupt. Anyway, it will only be left as an empty shell." Hurley also pretended to be heartless.
However, Eddie chuckled lightly because he knew that Hurley was just saying that.
"Hurley, I know you, you won't."
Hurley didn't want to talk to Eddie about this matter, "I have one more question."
"Ask."
"Brother left with you at the time. Do you know if Stephen is the child of big brother and who his mother is?"
The paternity test had shown that Matilda was not related to Stephen, so whose child was Stephen after all?
Eddie was surprised. "You know about this?"
"Why won't I know? What are you guys hiding from me?"
Eddie said, "Actually, there's nothing to hide. Your big brother..."
"He went to an occasion before, and he met a woman. He was obsessed with her and insisted on being with that woman. I don't know where our family inherited this bit of genes."
Of course, Eddie would not agree to such a thing. At that time, Eddie was particularly ruthless, and Richard was weak. Unlike Hurley, he did not dare to confront Eddie.
So, on the surface, Richard broke up with that woman and got a girlfriend named Matilda.
But in reality, Matilda was just a cover, and his love for Matilda was fake. Behind the scenes, Richard was still with that woman.
Stephen was born by that woman.
Knowing that she was pregnant, Richard also panicked. He knew that his father would not agree, but he wanted the child, so he asked Matilda to help him claim that the child was Matilda's.
On the other hand, Matilda used this excuse to get a lot of benefits from Richard.
Eddie only found out about that later, knowing that Richard had never broken up with that woman and was acting with Matilda to deceive him.
Since they were abroad, Hurley and the others naturally did not know about this and only thought that Richard and Matilda were dating.
This matter was considered a scandal for the Walton family, and Eddie couldn't just bring it up.
And Stephen's biological mother's identity was so shameful that no one knew about it. It would be better if his mother was considered Matilda.
