Reborn as the Darling of the Delta.

"Dark Star Fuel... Could this be something Hudson is planning to use to replace our current rocket fuel?"

Robert had a rare moment of inspiration, but he wasn't sure if he was sure about his bold idea and continued to think of ways to deal with Hudson.

"Young Master... Young Master, it's the Master's phone!"

At that moment, the old butler who had been following Robert hurriedly came over with a cell phone.

"What? My father is calling me at this hour? Could it be something serious?"

Upon hearing this, Robert quickly answered the phone. Still full of questions, he obediently answered the call to see what his father wanted to talk to him about at this time.

"Hey, what's wrong, Father? Has something happened to the family?"

"You beast, do you know how much trouble you've caused our family?! You, right now, get back here right now! Don't try to explain anything to me here. When you get back, I'll definitely put you under house arrest. I really want to have someone crack your head open and see if it's filled with cotton!"

Robert had barely answered the phone when his father's extremely furious voice came through, and his tirade completely stunned Robert.

Robert, who had been thinking of explaining and asking for the reason, couldn't help but shudder after hearing his father's next words. What terrible mistake had he made that his father could be so angry?

From childhood, Robert's father was a very serious person in Robert's eyes, and Robert was always afraid of his father.

However, as the heir of the family, he had been heavily groomed by his father. It was only through his father's connections that he was able to become a high-ranking official in Asara.

But what Robert couldn't understand was what he had done wrong to make his father so angry. However, having been scolded, Robert had lost the ability to think and immediately ordered someone to bring out his private jet.

When Robert rushed home again, he found his father in the familiar study. His father was sitting angrily at the table, with his uncles standing beside him.

Seeing this, Robert couldn't help but feel guilty. At the same time, he frantically reviewed everything he had done in Asara, trying to figure out if he had made any mistakes that he had forgotten.

"You're here, so get inside now!"

Inside the room, Robert's father had already spotted Robert outside the door, and with a frown, he let Robert in.

Robert shuddered at the sight, then took two deep breaths before resolutely walking into the room.

"Father... Father."

"Your Majesty!"

With a thud, Robert naturally knelt down in front of him. Looking at his son, who still had a blank expression on his face, Robert's father showed him a disappointed look.

"Robert, you've disappointed me so much. You still don't realize what you did wrong?"

Robert shook his head, still bewildered. He genuinely didn't know. Could it be...?

"Is it...because of Hudson?"

After seeing his father's angry eyes and hearing what he said, Robert calmed down a little, but at this moment he was completely numb.

No, isn't this Hudson just like the intelligence reports said? Someone who just comes from a family with a little money?

Chapter 659 The Landlord's Foolish Son (2)

When Robert's father heard Robert's "naive" words, he was so angry that he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

“You… How could I have given birth to such a stupid son? Just use your ass to think for a second. If that Hudson is really the guy you're talking about who only has a little money, how could he possibly become the youngest board member?”

"And let me tell you, Mr. Hudson is currently the largest board member on the Hafker Group's board of directors. Do you know what that means? Ah! It means that Hudson can crush you like an ant!"

After being told this by his father, Robert suddenly realized that if he was really as weak as Desmulan claimed, then there would be no reason for Desmulan to accept cooperation with him.

"I...I was tricked by that Demulan! No, I have to get revenge on her!"

Robert, who had been kneeling, suddenly stood up, a ferocious look on his face. He wanted to rush up to Desmulan and yell at her for her reasons, demanding to know if she thought he was a fool.

Demulan: Huh? Wasn't what I did obvious enough? I actually didn't expect you to be able to find the loopholes in what I said.

"Kneel down right now!"

thump!

Robert knelt before his father once more. Looking at his disappointing son, Robert's father gave his final instructions:

“You’d better stay right here and not go anywhere. Our family will withdraw from the matter of dividing up Asara. Mr. Hudson has already warned us that if you still try to cause trouble, even I can’t protect you.”

Robert stared wide-eyed at his father. His family had invested immense resources and manpower in their quest for a share of the profits in Asara, and now, because of his momentary recklessness, all those years of effort and resources had been wasted…

"Someone, take off everything that can connect him to the outside world. Now go back and behave yourself. I'm going to hire a new teacher to give you a proper lesson. I shouldn't have been soft-hearted and let your mother educate you back then. You turned out to be such a good-for-nothing."

Robert, looking utterly dejected, was dragged away by the men his father had summoned.

Thus came to an end Robert's "legendary" life in Asara.

This matter quickly spread throughout the Hafk Group. Of course, this was something Robert's father did intentionally to please Hudson, and only in this way could they protect their family.

Robert's father was acutely aware of the gap between himself and the Hudson family, and Hudson, who was far away at the space base, learned of this news immediately.

After hearing about Robert's treatment, Hudson was somewhat dissatisfied, but considering that Robert's father had been humble and subservient to him and had given up a lot of resources for him, Hudson reluctantly accepted the result.

"Hmm, my mood has improved a lot since that annoying guy disappeared. Now that I've taken over Robert's previous territory, I can send some of my soldiers over."

“But… this isn’t enough to completely break ties with Demulan. Since there’s no one on Hafk’s side who can cooperate with me, it’s time for me to see if Asara has anyone who’s even slightly smarter.”

Thinking of Asara's huge piece of meat, a glint of light flashed in Hudson's eyes. If he could take over a few territories from those leaders, he could bring most of his fighting force with him.

You should know that you had always wanted to take over Asara's Ashlands to settle your subordinates, but Mr. Jacob rejected your application. This is the main reason why Hudson never dared to take action against Demulan.

"Robert, that idiot, is gone. Hudson messed with him and sent him straight back to his hometown. It's only been a few days. Hudson's actions are really fast. Of course, Robert is really stupid. This time, he was saved by his old man."

Daisy, who was lying on the sofa playing on her phone, also received the message and spoke to Demulan, who was still cooking in the kitchen. Demulan was not surprised at all when she heard the news. It would be truly unbelievable if Robert really attacked Hudson.

"Isn't this all part of the plan? Tomorrow I'm going to talk to Hudson and see what excuse that bastard can come up with for himself this time."

As Demulan spoke, he stirred the soup simmering in the pot. Thinking of Hudson's hateful face, Demulan wanted to take his M700 and smash his head in the launch area.

"Kami, could you tell Xiao Hao about this too? In a few days, please contact Xiao Hao and ask him to take us to talk to that Said, right? We need to have a proper talk with Said."

Daisy also began to think about the next step. If everything went smoothly, then there shouldn't be any major problems on her side. As for how to seize Hudson's mistake, Daisy had a general idea in mind at this time.

Meanwhile, Zhang Hao relayed Hafk's news to the Special Operations Department. Deep Blue, upon receiving this information, began to analyze it:

"Actually, from this perspective, it would be easier for Demulan to act. You see, this means Hudson would be facing Demulan, Rometheus, us, and Said alone. Although we haven't reached a cooperation agreement with Hafk yet, with you, Xiao Hao, acting as a go-between, it's a done deal."

"But Uncle Deep Blue, he's already at the board level. If he makes some simple mistakes, it shouldn't be a big deal, right? Besides, we can't really influence him. The only thing we can do is see what Aunt Demulan does."

Zhang Hao thought about the difference in combat power between Uncle Said and Hudson, and could only shake his head. Uncle Said was indeed very strong, but he felt that if he encountered Hudson's little car, he would also be defeated.

Let's talk again in Chapter 660!

Time flew by and it was already the next day. Early in the morning, Demulan went alone to the dock where Hudson usually worked.

"I want to see Hudson."

Upon seeing the guards standing at the door, Demulan spoke calmly, as if the guards standing at the door had expected this.

There was no mention of reporting to Hudson first; he simply led Demulan directly toward Hudson's office.

Upon arriving at the office door, the guard knocked and respectfully addressed the person inside:

"Lord Hudson, Commander Demulan has arrived."

"Let her in."

Upon hearing Hudson's familiar, unpleasant voice, Demulan suppressed his nausea and, after the guard opened the door, went inside with the information Mary had previously collected for him.

"Hudson, you've gone too far."

As soon as he entered, Demulan began to put pressure on Hudson, who was sitting in a chair playing with the Dark Star, and the anger in Demulan's eyes was not faked.

After Mary collected detailed data on these people and handed it over to Demulan, Demulan spent several days reading through all the background information and detailed personal introductions of everyone in the document.

It was precisely because of the detailed data collection this time that DeMulland discovered a pattern in Hudson's interviews: those interviewed all shared a common characteristic—they were honest and avoided conflict with others.

Of course, among these people there were some with connections, but during the interviews, not one of them took the initiative to contact themselves or the relevant departments to provide feedback.

They all found familiar friends or colleagues to confide their grievances and thoughts to, and in the workplace, these honest people are often the first to be laid off.

After all, these people were so powerless to even resist, it would be easy for someone like Hudson to control them. So, out of a protective instinct, Demulan glared angrily at Hudson for his actions.

"Hey, Demulan, you should calm down first. What do you mean I went too far? Don't you know that I gave them two choices this time? Either take the money we gave them and get out of here, or go and contribute to the development of technology."

Rometheus: Uh... As things stand, I really don't dare to take it if you dare to give it to me right now. I'm afraid Demulan will kill me. If he really dumps those people here, my Tower of Babel will have to increase its food expenses and other costs. You'd better reimburse me then.

"Two choices? Huh, Hudson, don't take me for a fool like Robert. In the end, you only gave them one option: to take the meager severance pay you gave them and get out of there. Even Mr. Jacob wouldn't approve of that."

Hudson calmly extended one finger and waved it at Desmulan:

"No, no, no, Demulan, you're wrong. You don't understand Mr. Jacob's ambitions at all. What you're doing now is exactly what we call the behavior of the Virgin Mary, you know that?"

"You're using the group's money to try and treat those who work for you well, taking all the benefits for yourself. But what good will this do for us, for the Hafk Group? Don't tell me you'll earn their gratitude. Don't kid me, Demulan. You can build a utopia, but I want to see corresponding value."

Just like Daisy had said, Hudson's words left Desmulan speechless. Although she wanted to refute him and say that Hudson was a bastard with a flawed mind, she couldn't get the words out.

"But don't worry, Demullan. I, Hudson, am not as bad as you think. Besides, you are their leader after all. You can fight for more benefits for them!"

Hudson looked at Demulan, who seemed a bit constipated, and smiled slightly before speaking in a slightly seductive voice.

"What do you mean? What are you up to this time?"

Upon hearing Hudson's words, Demulan reacted as if under stress, immediately looking at Hudson warily. This guy must be up to some other bad idea now, and he absolutely could not compromise.

"Hehehe, Demulan, although you haven't said it, you don't really think we don't know, do you? The space station that had an incident at the space base a few months ago should be experiencing significant problems by now."

Upon hearing Hudson's words, Desmoulins immediately stood up and coldly replied:

"I have nothing more to say to you, Hudson. Although I don't know where you got this information from, I will not agree with your dangerous ideas. You should know how unstable your Dark Star fuel is."

After saying that, Demulan turned and left, ignoring Hudson's continued pressure. Demulan remained unmoved until he pushed open the door and left, and the office fell silent once again.

"Hmph, unstable? All we need to do now is send this fuel into space and test it once to definitively prove whether it's stable or not. Demulan, being overly conservative will only harm you."

After muttering to himself for a while, Hudson called his secretary in again.

"Let's pause the optimization efforts for a while. If we push too hard, that madman Demulan might actually try to self-destruct with us. That's not worth it."

After pausing an ongoing optimization operation, Hudson looked at Asara's map, his gaze randomly landing on the area around the abandoned castle of Hamk.

. . . . . . . . . . . .

. . . . . . . . . . . .

"You're back? How was it? Was it a very difficult day?"

Daisy, seeing Desmulan walk back fuming, smiled and asked her how things had gone. Hearing Daisy's question, Desmulan looked equally annoyed.
