Chapter 1510 Restart (2/2)

For a moment, Jacob became the center of the storm.

Realizing how serious the matter was, he couldn't help but frown.

The issue had impacted their other businesses and their revenue kept dwindling each day. The senior executives of the HT Group were in distress, and the other employees were also in low spirits.

”The food chain can't operate again, but the company is not closing down. Why do you guys look so sad?” As usual, Jacob had a cold and sullen expression plastered on his face. His tone was emotionless. His bony fingers slowly knocked on the table, which seemed to have woken up the company's board of directors. They sat up and looked at him.

”Mr. Gu, our company has suffered major financial loss because of this incident. We made a big mistake…”

Jacob looked at him with a scowl, and the director's voice became lower and lower until it turned into a whisper. A deep and serious voice declared, ”The HT Group didn't start as a food company. Even without our involvement in the food industry, the company was able to operate and always ranked top.”

Our connections and qualifications in several industries are more than enough to make the company run smoothly despite what happened. We will make up for the financial loss soon enough,” Jacob added sincerely.
