《Rise of the White Dragon 》Chapter 258: Dismissal [Not yet edited]
Advertisement
On Monday, May 31, after returning to the country, Luan was busy again.
All countries that were helped by him and Ingrid paid the money that was duly negotiated. Luan was happy that this was resolved in a practical way and with Ingrid, he went to Company Headquarters.
After Online Survival was updated, a lot of things happened, now people didn't complain about the value being 10x higher. In fact, it wasn't even high, it was only 30 US dollars. Before the monthly fee did not reach 5 dollars, however, this increase was not very difficult for people to pay, mainly because those who excluded the account before, were the majority of people with money.
In front of Luan, there were 3 women in their 20s. The coldness in his eyes enveloped their hearts, chilling them from head to toe.
"The three of you can go to HR and get the last salary of the month, you're fired." Luan's voice was cold and indifferent.
The three women shudder in fear, tears well up in the corners of their eyes, and they start to sniffle.
Karol Oliveira said in a crying voice: "Luan, you can't do this to me, is it wrong for me to love you?"
"No, it's not wrong." Luan said coolly: "But it's wrong to try to circumvent the company's system and make it look like Ingrid was looking at company information. By the way, you're very naive if you think that because Ingrid is young and hasn't gone to college, she's stupid, she's the one who found the evidence that you three were behind this. I'm still being tolerant of not wanting to register this, but if I'm not obedient and they leave now, I don't care if it gets worse."
When they heard this, the three of them, Karol, began to sniff silently. She still had some conscience, if she persisted, she would not only compromise her job but her father as well.

After the three left, the women and men in the company's public relations office fell silent. They needed this job, especially with the high salary and privileges in the Survival Online game.
Currently, other companies would not pay what they earn at Dimas Corporation, and it was foolish to still want to go against Ingrid after seeing many videos on the internet of her saving many people not only in Brazil, even saving half of a country alone.
Ariana Gonçalves who always tried to suck Karol Oliveira bitterly regretted what she did, she liked the job and the salary was good. However, now she was unemployed, and even though her fix wasn't dirty because Luan still gave them an out, that doesn't mean it will be easy to find such a good job that pays so well.
Rafaela Amaral shivered in the chair she was sitting on. She almost joined the group of these three idiots to go against Ingrid. What she didn't think was that in such a short time, Ingrid would become so formidable.
What surprised her most was that she initially thought Luan was just with Ingrid because of her pretty face, but after seeing his cold gaze on the three women who had offended Ingrid, she knew she was wrong in her initial judgment.
'Should I just give up on him?' Rafaela Amaral did not resign, but she was not a fool like Karol and the rest. She was cautious and even though she wanted Ingrid out of the way, she at least had some conscience and knew when to step forward and back. At that moment, if she moved forward, she would be trampled to death, and she would be sent out of the company.
Luan created a virtual assistant. He couldn't run the company, he couldn't leave it in the hands of random people, his mother needed to get stronger, and so did he and Ingrid. However, the company still needed to keep running, so he created an artificial intelligence virtual assistant that had been working for a long time.

"Are you sure you can leave it at that?" Ingrid was uncertain, she didn't have the knowledge that Luan did, and trusting an entire billion-dollar company was a very risky thing to do.
"Yes, do not worry." Luan assured: "I'm not giving all the power to the company. Just leaving the service of CEO of Dimas Corporation Headquarters with the necessary information and more profitable projects. Currently, this artificial intelligence is installed on the island, in a supercomputer that I created myself. Remember those days I stayed up late at night? So I was doing it."
"Are you using the energy from monster cores as a power source for the supercomputer?" Ingrid speculated.
"Yes, exactly." Luan rubbed her face and said, "Now we don't have to worry about company security. They will find it a little strange at first, but we already have most of the shares purchased in Dimas Corporation and the second largest shareholder is on our side."
"Basically, even if they want to rebel, what awaits them is an untimely death?" Ingrid was talking about shareholders and the company's new policy.
"Yes, they can keep doing their job, and keep making money out of it, or they can just disappear." Luan said: "We are at a time when the old laws don't work as they used to, and the country, even the UN, is wanting to be on good terms with us."
Currently, the strength of Luan and his family was something other countries could not ignore. A simple help from them managed to save many countries in a very short time. This gave them enough credibility to ignore many rules.
And the other countries were already suspicious that Luan has a hidden tower on his island. This comes from his strength that increased in an absurd way. A wise person, he knew the best move to make and at that time, Luan Dimas and his family were important allies and someone they didn't want as enemies. Even the recent massacre of Nymphs and many politicians made the news.
Despite not having proof or trace of Luan's involvement in all of this, only he came to everyone's minds when it happened, however, investigations always ended up in a dead end. The only thing that was reported was that one of the Nymphs got frantic and started killing her own clan and then the most important politicians in the PT.
This was clear, especially with the advance of Saulo Dimas in the candidacy, the position of President of Brazil was practically his.
After solving all matters related to the company, Luan returned to Ilha with Ingrid.
Ingrid was safer after seeing the supercomputer, it was gigantic and was built in the basement of the mansion.
