Jace’s cold voice made Flynn shudder.
But, since Flynn had already chosen to stand on Lucas’s side, it meant that he was completely tied to Lucas, and there was no room for change.
Even though Flynn knew that Lucas was extremely powerful, he wasn’t confident that Lucas would definitely defeat the successor of the Huttons.
If Lucas failed in the end, it also meant that Flynn lost.
People who failed would probably only face one result.
But it was like a gamble at this point. Flynn had already placed his bet and even his life on Lucas. There was no turning back for him now.
“Mr. Hutton, I’m doing this for the development of the Stardust Corporation. I’m also acting according to the rules and regulations of the company!” Flynn said resolutely.
Jace sneered. “The rules are dead, but people are alive! No matter what, these staff have made many contributions to the development of the Stardust Corporation over the years. If all of them get sacked just for missing one meeting, isn’t it too ruthless?”
After all, the people Flynn wanted to fire all obeyed him. If they were all fired, how could he continue to control the Stardust Corporation through them in the future and obtain most of the Stardust Corporation’s profits?
Flynn’s attitude was extremely firm. “The company’s system is formulated and implemented by people! Besides, this isn’t the first time that they have disobeyed my orders. In fact, I even gave them a chance before the meeting today. If they had gone to the conference room within fifteen minutes, I would have spared them from any punishment for their absence. But what did they do?

“Since what I, the general manager, said to them is just bullshit in their eyes, why should I keep defiant employees around in the company?
“Also, Mr. Hutton, although I respect you as a member of the Hutton family, this is the Stardust Corporation. Apart from the chairman, I’m the one who calls the shots!
“As an outsider, you shouldn’t be meddling in the affairs of the Stardust Corporation!”
Flynn was very adamant and didn’t give in.
The word ‘outsider’ made Jace turn red in anger, and he almost lost his temper.
“Flynn Davis, how dare you say that to Mr. Hutton?!”
“What do you think you are? How dare you call Mr. Hutton an outsider and say that he can’t interfere in the affairs of the Stardust Corporation? Do you even know that Mr. Hutton is the former chairman of the Stardust Corporation?!”
“Hah, you think you can do whatever you want just because you work for the current chairman? We’re veterans of the company, and we have worked here for over a decade. We have contributed far more than you have! Even if you’re the general manager now, you’re in no place to dismiss us!”
“That’s right! You’re just a dog of the current chairman. Who do you think you are?! Except for the current chairman, no one has the right to make us leave the company!”
…
The upper management staff and executives standing behind Jace were all glowering at Flynn with righteous indignation.
Jace stood in front of them with a sullen expression. It was as if he was shrouded in gloomy clouds that were about to erupt.
Facing this scene, Flynn felt immense pressure, as if there were huge waves crashing against him, making it almost impossible for him to hang on.
In fact, he even had the idea of giving up and retreating.
But he soon dismissed this idea as soon as it appeared.
Since things had already gotten to this point, there was no room for him to make concessions and settle this peacefully!
“Shut up!” Flynn hollered at the managers and executives who kept accusing him and cursing at him. His voice was like thunder and immediately drowned out their voices.
“Indeed, you are veteran employees of the company and have made some contributions in the past. But you didn’t do it for nothing! The corporation gave you high salaries, generous benefits, dividends, and bonuses corresponding to your positions. You people know very clearly how many undeserved benefits you actually obtained from the company!
“It’s true that I haven’t been in the corporation for as long as you have, and you indeed have more seniority than me. But I can say with a clear conscience that I haven’t taken a single cent of filthy money from the corporation since the day I became the general manager! Do you dare to say this?
“You people have been abusing your positions to embezzle the company funds and fill your pockets! Do I still need your permission to fire you parasites?!
“Since I’ve already decided to fire you, you can all forget about returning to the company!” Flynn roared, giving them no room for negotiation!
His furious bellow immediately shocked the upper management staff and executives!
Before today, Flynn, the general manager, was just a symbol and a joke in the Stardust Corporation. No one took him seriously. Moreover, everyone defied his orders, ostracized him, and even mocked him in his face. It could be said that Flynn had simply been a pushover whom anyone could bully during his last month in the Stardust Corporation headquarters.
And even when he was angry, Flynn could only endure it.
But there seemed to be something wrong with Flynn, as he suddenly became extremely domineering. He even refused to give in despite facing Jace’s threat. He insisted on firing the nearly one hundred upper management staff and executives of the Huttons!
Who gave him the courage?!
“Flynn! How dare you say that we lined our pockets and that we’re the parasites of the corporation?! This is pure slander! If you can’t give us an explanation, we will sue you for slander!”
“Exactly! Who are you to say that we have used our positions in the corporation to gain personal profits? Do you have evidence? Talk is cheap! If you don’t apologize to all of us, don’t blame us for being unkind to you!”
“Hah, we’ve been slogging our guts out for the company for so many years and dedicated so many years of youth and effort. Flynn Davis, not only are you trying to fire all of us, but you’re even slandering us! Why are you so vicious?! None of us are convinced!”
“Yes, we’re not convinced! We refuse to accept your accusations. You must retract the decision to dismiss us and apologize to all of us!”
…
Facing Flynn’s accusation, almost all senior staff were furious. Of course, they wouldn’t admit that they had really done those things and were instead accusing Flynn of slander.
Flynn sneered fearlessly. “You’re accusing me of slandering you, and you even want to sue me for slander? Fine, go ahead and sue me! You think I don’t have any evidence? Let’s see how you can defend yourselves once I hand over the evidence to the authorities!”
