What Delta? Isn't it Operation Assara?

Chapter 232 Hafk's Balance

For a moment, Hudson's mind went blank, but he quickly recovered.

Investigating the misdeeds of three senior executives of the Hafk Group is no easy task, even for a large capital group like the Hudson family.

As the group's security director, Demulan held a high position of power and, based on their years of working together, could easily uncover some of the dirty secrets of the three directors of human resources, finance, and public relations, or find their weaknesses to coerce them into joining forces against Hudson.

Hudson was able to obtain this damaging information through GTI's undercover agent "Beacon" in Hafk, as well as his own channels.

GTI uncovered the "weaknesses" Hudson wanted, and these things, through Hudson's moles planted in GTI, eventually reached Hudson's hands and became tools for GTI to stir up trouble within Hafk and for Hudson to control the three directors.

Demulan's previous actions and the information she had uncovered naturally did not escape GTI's notice, and even less so Hudson's.

After all, that hidden stake was planted in the GTI by Hudson a long time ago.

Having suffered heavy losses in a joint attack by GTI and Red Owl at the space base, Hudson was eager for revenge after recovering.

The first step in Hudson's revenge plan is to eliminate the three directors who have sided with Demulan due to the complex situation.

To this end, he did not hesitate to use his undercover agents again, and through GTI's channels, he collected enough dirt to put the three directors to death, something that Jacob Hafk himself could not protect.

Hudson assumed that Jacob Hafk himself might know something about the shady dealings of the three directors of human resources, finance, and public relations, but how could he possibly know so much about the underlying issues?

Could it be that……

Hudson felt a chill run down his spine and dared not think any further.

"Targeting the three departments: Human Resources, Finance, and Public Relations..."

"And regarding the upcoming work arrangements for the Hafk Group, I have made the following arrangements." Behind the large screen, Jacob Hafk's refined voice clearly reached the ears of Demulan, Hudson, and everyone present.

"The human resources department was taken over by the group's security director, Demulan, and reorganized."

The public relations department is the responsibility of the performance department.

The finance department is jointly managed by Director DeMullan and Minister Hudson.

"This...document has explained their situation very clearly, and I believe you know what to do," Jacob Hafk continued, his words causing Hudson's expression to change again.

By directly exposing the three individuals' dirty secrets to the public, they were taking a desperate gamble, even placing themselves in a position of being the target of public criticism.

However, Hudson never expected that the person who would benefit the most from his actions would be Demulan!

Hafk's deployment appears to divide the authority of the three departments in two, equally between Demulan and Hudson, but in reality, this is not the case.

As technology advances, the role of public relations departments is declining. In fact, in Hudson's acceleration plan, public relations departments are one of the areas that need to be optimized.

Moreover, the public relations department is inherently inferior to the human resources and finance departments.

Against this backdrop, it's even more uncertain when he will be laid off and completely disappear from the Hafk Group, becoming history. What use is Hudson's public relations department?

Hudson even felt that Jacob Hafk handed the public relations department over to him with the intention of having him cut the PR department, which had become a burden, in order to reduce costs and increase efficiency!

Although Hudson didn't care about this.

What's really bad for Hudson is that DeMulland, his arch-enemy, has taken control of the human resources department and has also extended his reach into the finance department.

Both the Dark Star Project and the Acceleration Project require the participation of Hafk's human resources and finance departments. On the human resources side, Demulan will definitely block him completely, and on the finance side, he needs Demulan's authorization to do whatever he wants!

This is not as good as before.

Just then, a loud footstep sound came. Hudson turned around and saw a security force dressed in Hafk soldier uniforms. Among them were heavy units like Hafk machine gunners, who were carrying rotary machine guns and exuding a strong sense of oppression.

"Who let them come up here?"

"I clearly gave the order, you..." Hudson was furious. This was a perfect opportunity for him to put pressure on Demulan. The sudden appearance of this unknown Hafk force had ruined his plan.

Is it Demoulin?

impossible!

But if it wasn't Demoulins, then who could it be?

Thinking of this, Hudson slowly turned around, and finally, his gaze fell on the back of Jacob Hafk on the big screen.

"Alonso." As if sensing Hudson's gaze, Jacob Hafk spoke, his tone as gentle and refined as ever, even carrying a hint of pity.

"I'm sorry you've had to go through this."

The company has seen your hard work.

Your attack at the space city was undoubtedly a dereliction of duty by the security department. I would like to issue a severe rebuke to Director Demoulan and the entire security department.

"We must strengthen our vigilance; an attack on a senior executive of the group in the space city must never happen again," Hafk continued.

"Yes, sir, I'm sorry." Demulan slowly stood up and bowed slightly to the image of Hafk on the screen.

"Also, Ms. Demulan, the Dark Star Project will require the full cooperation of the security and human resources departments for the foreseeable future."

If successful, the Dark Star Project will become a crucial cornerstone for Hafk to accelerate world development and drive the evolution of human society. Therefore, the Dark Star Project cannot afford to fail.

However, moderation is key; we must not force growth or stray from reality. These were the last words Hafk uttered before hanging up the phone.

"Commander, we await your instructions!" A Hafk soldier stepped past the Hudson Guards and approached Demulan, saluting respectfully.

"Take these three disgraceful bastards away and interrogate them properly!" Demulan looked at the three directors who were now like mush in front of him and gave the order through gritted teeth.

"Yes, Director!" The Hafk soldier replied respectfully, and then with a wave of his hand, several Hafk soldiers stepped forward, grabbed the three directors, and dragged them out of the conference room.

"Ms. Demulan, you didn't expect me to come back, did you?" Hudson took out his asthma inhaler, took a deep breath, and then walked to a chair facing Demulan, slowly sitting down. It was the former CFO's seat.

"Mr. Hafk has ordered you to fully cooperate in executing my Dark Star Project. What do you say?"
