Chapter 2326

Alright, I’ll get us a private room upstairs first, Mozart. It won’t take too long,” Amber said.

Shortly after, Amber led Diana to the back door where they found the bar owner who then escorted them to the second floor.

After approximately five minutes, the bar owner returned to the first floor and approached Murik.

“Sir, someone has invited you to a private room upstairs,” the owner informed him.

Though curious, Murik was not in a good mood today. When he heard that someone had invited him for a drink, he simply nodded and followed.

Once the owner led Murik to the private room, he left him there.

Murik then reached out to knock on the door, but soon after the door opened, and he found himself being dragged inside.

“What are you doing?!” Murik demanded.

Murik was terrified, thinking that he was in danger. That was until he heard a familiar voice.

“Calm down, Murik. I’m not going to hurt you…”

Murik finally relaxed when he saw Diana standing in front of him. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“You were the one who called me here? You should have told me earlier, then I wouldn’t have been so scared…

Diana walked over to Murik and asked. “What’s with last night’s message? You have something to tell me, correct?”

“I have questions I’d like to ask you too. What’s with the new regulation of senior members in the Petroleum Chamber of Commerce?”

Murik sighed when he heard Diana’s questions. “Sigh… I didn’t have a choice at all. It’s all because of that woman called Vivian.”

Diana had a general idea of what was happening once he heard Vivian’s name.

“Why? Did Vivian decide to step out from the shadows and talk to you?”

Murik nodded and elaborated. “Yeah. I didn’t know she was from such a powerful family either. I didn’t have any other choice when she appeared, and I couldn’t get in touch with you either. That’s why…”

Remorseful, Murik began to tell Diana everything that happened last night.

Diana finally understood what was going on.

“I see. I had to give in to her and was forced to sign an NDA right at the beginning, preventing me from revealing what was happening.

Diana finally understood why he received that message. Murik wanted to reveal everything, but he could not do so openly, so his only option was to hint at it to Mozart.

Murik continued, “But it’s too late to do anything now. I’ve only just realized how dire the situation actually is today. Somehow, Vivian managed to obtain the most shares of all petroleum businesses in Bashra. All she has to do is slowly eat away at those petroleum businesses. It’s only a matter of time before the chamber of commerce becomes hers!”

“I’ve already thought about resigning!”

Diana suddenly thought of something when he heard the regret in Murik’s voice.

“No, there’s no rush Murik. We haven’t lost yet…”

Murik still locked distressed when he heard that. He did not believe they still had a chance to turn things around.

“With things the way they are now, how have we not lost yet? I’m pretty sure once I submit my resignation, the two petroleum fields under your name will also be targeted.”

Diana naturally understood Murik’s feelings. Because only a handful of people knew about the other plan Diana had carried out back then.
