Chapter 731 Showdown
Sven had just put a label on Donald.
However, right after he finished speaking, Jennifer said, “We'll follow Mr. Campbell's instruction and let Ms. Ellis
present the report.”
Sven was so frustrated that he almost coughed up blood. Jennifer is really useless!
Under Jennifer's encouraging gaze, Amelia took out the flash drive she had prepared in advance and plugged it into
the projector in the conference room.
“Dear directors, although Dragon Fide Corporation is a newly established group, both our collaborative projects and
investment scale are much greater than those of other ordinary companies. Therefore, our daily expenses and
revenue related to the first-tier projects are quite substantial. This is the financial report summary I obtained after
going through the forty-five projects under our corporation. On the left are the detailed financial reports of the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtproject department, while on the right are the full financial reports summarized by the headquarters after the
project departments send their financial reports to them.”
Amelia displayed the slides of the financial reports for everyone to see.
However, Sven obviously had no patience to read that kind of thing.
He furrowed his brows and said, “What exactly are you trying to tell us by showing us these reports? If your aim is
to update us on each project department's financial status, I think that is unnecessary. Our company has a group of
specialized financial auditors to handle this responsibility, and we don't need you to overstep your bounds here.”
Amelia pressed a button, and numerous figures on the left and right financial reports were suddenly highlighted in
red.
When the directors noticed the numbers highlighted in red, the expression in their eyes instantly changed.
The ability to read financial reports was a fundamental skill for anyone who had attained their position.
When those figures were not marked, those financial reports didn't seem erroneous without scrutiny.
However, once the numbers were highlighted, everyone in the room realized someone had tampered with the
financial reports.
“Someone purchased the construction materials at high prices?”
Filbert was currently the person in charge of all civil engineering projects under Dragon Fide Corporation.
He was most familiar with the market prices of various construction materials.
The cement labeled on the report was priced at thirty per bag, but the cost per bag specified in the report was
forty-five.
The fifteen bucks might seem insignificant, but the amount would be staggering if that difference were to apply to
every bag of cement.
Dragon Fide Corporation's workload required at least tens of thousands of cement bags daily, which meant the
company would have to pay additional hundreds of thousands every day.
Besides, that was only taking into consideration one item, which was cement. The other materials facing similar

If all the figures highlighted by Amelia were problematic, Filbert couldn't even imagine how much money the
company had lost every day.
Jennifer's face darkened when she saw the data. “Ms. Ellis, what exactly is going on?”
Amelia glanced at Winslow, who was sitting calmly at one side, and elaborated, “I visited each project department
to acquire these first-hand data. I've also photographed and photocopied the sources of the data for archiving. I
think I should let Mr. Moore explain the underlying problem.”
Hearing that, all the other directors shifted their attention to Winslow. So, this Amelia is actually targeting Winslow.
Those were all shrewd people who had years of experience surviving in the business world. Even Sven, who was
ranting earlier, was now sipping on his coffee silently.
He finally figured out that Amelia, who was supported by Donald, was actually a helpful subordinate.
She wasn't just filling in the role of a typical executive director in Dragon Fide Corporation. Her true goal was to
bring down Winslow.
On the surface, it seemed that Amelia was confronting Winslow, but everyone knew that was, in fact, a showdown
between Donald and Winslow.
