Let them offer their loyalty

He knew very well that other members of the board did not want Miss Rhine to continue to stay on the board...If they could give up some of their interests and expel Rhine from the board, then this sudden "crisis" would be an opportunity for Senna Life.

--Da da.

The sound of high heels on the floor attracted Yves Humphrey's attention. He looked up and, sure enough, the target of this meeting appeared at the door of the conference room.

Rhine looked very bad at this moment, as if he was overwhelmed by the events of the past two days.

Yves Humphrey crossed his arms, looked at Rhine in front of him and said:

"Finally, Miss Rhine. You don't look very well."

"Yes, thanks to Mr. Yves." Rhine said with a forced smile.

If Jonas was 70% responsible for the current dire situation, then the remaining 30% undoubtedly lay at the feet of the man in front of him.

Rhine even suspected that it was the man in front of him who bribed Jonas. After all, the other party pointed the finger at him as soon as the incident happened, and most of Senna Life's previous projects could not be implemented because of the other party's obstruction.

It can be said that Yves Humphrey is her biggest obstacle on the board of directors.

Hearing the sarcasm from Rhine, Yves Humphrey did not care, but spoke directly:

"So, regarding the current situation, does Miss Rhine have anything to explain?"

"what's the situation?"

Although things had come to this point, Rhine did not give up directly. Before the situation was determined, the girl did not want to give in just because she could remain stubborn.

——If you want to delay it, then delay it as much as possible.

Of course, being tough wouldn't help the current situation. When Yves Humphrey saw Rhine's reaction, he just curled his lips, then waved his hand, and a holographic projection appeared in the center of the conference table.

What is shown above is the Alte Foundation's condemnation of Senna Life, as well as the pressure exerted on Senna Life by the Arbitration Bureau from all aspects.

"So, now, Miss Rhine, can you explain why this happened?"

Yves Humphrey's tone remained the same as before, and of course his actual emotions could not be heard.

This tone was somewhat official and cold, but it also put Rhine under great psychological pressure in this situation.

"Why are you asking me? It's not a good thing to accuse someone at will."

Rhine sneered and said:

"Do you have any evidence to prove that what the Alt Foundation said is related to me?"

She glanced at the other members of the board of directors, then slowly spoke:

"As far as I know, all board members have the power to mobilize the hovercraft, so can I also question Mr. Yves Humphrey's involvement in this matter?"

After hearing Rhine's words, Yves Humphrey's emotions did not fluctuate much. He had already guessed that the other party would not admit this matter, but this would not affect the final outcome.

Even Rhine's performance seemed a little ridiculous to him. Now that things had already been decided, anyone with a discerning eye could see who the Alte Group was targeting. No matter how much Rhine resisted, he was just fighting desperately.

Thinking of this, Yves Humphrey looked at Rhine with a little more pity in his eyes.

"Of course... Senna Life needs to give an explanation to the Alt Group. The leader of Dawn Star has been captured by the Alt Group. Who will be in charge of this matter is not decided by us, but by the intelligence forced out by the Alt Group.

According to the intelligence we obtained in the Alte District, the Alte Group has already figured out who is supporting the Dawn Star. We will then decide who will take the main responsibility based on the statement released by the Alte Group. "

Yves Humphrey spoke slowly, and upon hearing this, Rhine's face couldn't help but turn a little ugly.

It was obvious that the other party had been mentally prepared when he said this, which made her believe her original guess even more.

As if to confirm his words, the holographic projection turned into a statement from the Alt Group. Jonas' image appeared in the center of the screen, and everyone else's attention was also attracted to the picture.

Yves Humphrey's eyes showed a hint of surprise. He didn't expect that the Alte Consortium would just start to release a statement as soon as he opened his mouth. However, this coincidence was undoubtedly beneficial to him. After all, the facts were in front of him, and it was useless for Miss Rhine to be stubborn.

As long as it is determined that these things are Rhine's responsibility, then subsequent matters will be much simpler.

Senna Life will compensate the Alte Foundation for this incident and punish the person most responsible. The final result will most likely be that Miss Rhine will resign from the board of directors.

"Regarding what happened some time ago, the Alt Foundation has learned that the rebel organization 'Dawn Star''s operational resources came from Senna Life. According to the confession of the Dawn Star leader Beigong Ling, all of this originated from a board member of Senna Life."

Jonas' words echoed in the holographic image, and Yves Humphrey couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth when he heard the other party's words.

But the next moment, his face fell.

"Yves Humphrey provided strategic resources to Dawn Star and instigated it to attack the Alte Group... In response, the Alte Group has applied for the intervention of the Arbitration Bureau, hoping to put an imperfect end to this vicious incident."

At this point, Yves Humphrey's face had turned completely gloomy, and the other members of the board of directors also looked at Yves, obviously somewhat surprised by this situation.

——What’s going on? ! !

This reversal made everyone present pause for half a second, and the one-sided situation now showed an unfavorable trend in offense and defense.

Miss Rhine, who originally had an ugly expression on her face, was completely stunned at this moment. After a moment, she reacted. Her thoughts raced quickly, and she did not miss this rare opportunity. She spoke:

"Mr. Yifu, it seems that the main person responsible is someone else."

"you...!"

How could Yves not know that this was a trap set by the Alte Group and Rhine? However, before he could refute it, Rhine frowned and said:

"If you have any excuses, go and tell the Arbitration Bureau!"

"Yves Humphrey, the board is disappointed in you!"

When Yves Humphrey heard this, he was furious, but he had no way to refute it. He just looked at the girl in front of him with vicious eyes.

He knew that he seemed to be the one in trouble now.

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

Back in the office, Rhine breathed a sigh of relief, a long-lost smug smile on his face.

——I knew Jonas would be a trustworthy partner.

Of course, even if things were reversed, Miss Rhine would definitely not admit that she had just wronged Jonas.

In any case, the other party's behavior of deliberately not answering the phone and not telling me any news is really too bad.

——Beep, beep, beep

A message suddenly appeared on the communication in front of the girl. It was a message from Jonas' address, which she had called two days ago but received no response.

——Is Miss Rhine satisfied with this surprise?

Seeing these words, Rhine's mouth corners couldn't help but curl up.

Although the process was indeed shocking, fortunately the ending was good.

I'll give it 80 points.

Miss Rhine, who was thinking this, did not realize at all that she seemed to no longer be disgusted by the fact that she was played by Jonas.

PS: This chapter has 4,000 words, which temporarily completes the Rhine Line.

I thought I could get 6,000, but the effect of the coffee wore off, so I had to stop for a while.

Chapter 277 It's simply a succubus

"Mr. Jonas, have you thought of anything happy?"

As if she heard the chuckle from the man in the back row, Esni asked curiously.

After hearing what Esni said, Jonas came back to reality. He waved his hand and said:

“There were some interesting things that happened.”

Although Miss Rhine had been trying to target him before this incident, Jonas did not feel much hostility in his heart.

Miss Rhine's performance at the beginning was indeed a bit intimidating, but in subsequent contacts, Jonas gradually discovered that the other party was actually a bit timid, including the subsequent series of actions against the Alte Group, which made Jonas feel that these were just the tricks of a little girl.

Even if Miss Rhine succeeds, it probably won't have much impact on the Alte Group. Moreover, tracing back to the source, the initial conflict between the two sides was just that Miss Rhine wanted to win him over, and after being rejected, she was a little angry and wanted to get back at him.

Looking at the whole incident from beginning to end, Miss Rhine has always been at a disadvantage.

In this case, it is indeed difficult for people to feel any hostility towards it.

It's like walking on the road and a little kid bumps into you, and then falls to the ground. Compared to being angry, it's more of a mixture of laughter and tears.

Shaking his head, Jonas changed the subject and asked:

"Speaking of which, how is the situation at Dawn Star?"

"We have initially gained control of the resources they need, and all the opposition within Dawn Star has been eliminated."

The solution here naturally refers to the solution in the physiological sense... Although the means are a bit bloody, it is undeniable that it is quite effective. Moreover, it can also deter the members within the Dawn Star to a certain extent. Coupled with Beigong Ling's statement, things on the Dawn Star side are almost arranged properly.

Of course, Jonas did have a backup plan.

Miss Ranica was one of them. In fact, the intelligence about many board members of Dawn Star was also provided by them. Otherwise, Miss Nightingale would not have been able to assassinate many senior executives of Dawn Star without anyone noticing in such a short period of time.

The provision of this information also completely tied Lanika to Jonas's ship, and she would become one of his best candidates to monitor and restrain Beigong Ling.

"Now that the matter of the Morning Star is over... it's time for Miss Afanasi to come next."

Jonas spoke softly, looking out the window.

From Tianyu's youngest son, he learned that the Xujing Sect was also involved in this incident as he had guessed.

In fact, Jonas' original idea was to lure out two big fish at once through this incident. Unfortunately, the Void Realm Sect became much more cautious after suffering a loss last time. Even when the Dawn Star invaded in full force, the Void Realm Sect never took any action.

This made Jonas, who had originally wanted to find an opportunity, temporarily give up the idea of ​​causing trouble for the Void Realm Sect.

Of course, he knew very well that the Void Realm Church would not just let the matter go. Moreover, even if the Void Realm Church was really scared and did not want to cause trouble for the Alte Group again, Jonas was not going to let them go.

After all, the Void Realm Cult is the only organization he can get in touch with that can give him a deep understanding of the Void Realm. Now that he has temporarily obtained the right to use the black ring, Jonas will naturally not give up any opportunity to obtain intelligence about the Void Realm.

Therefore, no matter whether the Void Realm Sect is planning to stop or build up its strength at this moment, there will definitely be another conflict between them and the Alte Group.

"Don't worry, I will definitely keep you safe."

Esni thought Jonas was worried about the next attack from the Void Realm Cult.

"I'm not worried about my safety when I'm with Miss Esni... I'm just a little worried about my health."

Hearing this, Jonas didn't explain much, but just smiled and joked.

Hearing this, Esni's cheeks turned red, and she said in a somewhat resentful tone:

"As a price for protecting Mr. Jonas, I think you won't mind the small reward I ask for."

Jonas looked at the black-haired girl sitting in the driver's seat and said this. Her neck and earlobes were slightly red. He noticed that there seemed to be a crystal pendant on her earlobe, so he smiled and said:

"Ms. Esni's earrings, did you buy them yourself?"

"Celine bought this for me. I couldn't resist her..."

Seeing that Jonas had noticed her change, Esni was still somewhat excited, but she did not show it. Instead, she pretended to be a little distressed, secretly glanced at Jonas's reaction through the car's rearview mirror, and asked tentatively, pretending to be unintentional:

"Mr. Jonas, do you think it's...beautiful?"

Jonas took a look at the girl's appearance at this moment. The delicate earrings highlighted the girl's collarbone, and her short black hair looked simple against the earrings.

"It looks good." Jonas nodded.

It’s not just a casual perfunctory look, the girl’s earrings do give people a sense of stunning contrast.

After all, Miss Esni doesn't dress up often, so these changes in details give people the feeling that a nun who usually behaves well is wearing decorative leg rings, which subconsciously gives people an attack speed-increasing buff.

"Huh, it seems that Celine really didn't lie to me." Hearing this, Esni breathed a sigh of relief, and then whispered to herself.

"What?" Jonas asked in confusion, not hearing what Esni said.

Esni shook her head and changed the subject:

"No, it's nothing. As long as Mr. Jonas thinks it looks good."

Although Celine often acted unreliable, at least she didn't lie to her about this matter.

And I do feel that Celine is quite experienced in dressing up. Maybe Celine needs to learn more about it in the future.

In fact, the girl is not a person who likes to dress up. From her previous image, it can be seen that dressing up is just a useless and tedious thing for Miss Esni.

And she really thought so...If she wanted to make it in the world of mercenaries, the most important thing was decisive judgment and calm thinking. The only purpose of dressing up for her was to turn her into a slightly better-looking corpse when she died.

But now, Esni has developed some interest in the behavior that she once sneered at.

To put it bluntly, Miss Esni is just a slightly mature girl, and for a girl in her twenties, who wouldn't like to express herself in front of the person she likes?

Women dress up to please themselves, and this is also where Miss Esni has gradually changed imperceptibly.
