I silently picked up the photo frame, wiped off the footprints, took out the picture, tore off my part, and shredded the rest. Then, along with the frame, I threw it all into the trash can.

"Indeed, it's trash, and it should be in the trash can."

My colleagues' faces turned sour, feeling the sting of my words.

I took out my phone and dialed my rival's number.

"Interested in a Golden Group order with a bid of ten million dollars?" I asked.

"What Golden Group?"

Upon hearing this, Billy stopped me.

I smiled at him, "What other Golden Group? I've pulled some strings and secured a deal for us, oh, wait, for your company to print the first edition of a supplementary educational resource.

"If the collaboration goes well, getting two textbooks wouldn't be difficult either.

"However, I've been laid off, so naturally, I have to find another capable company to print these materials."

Golden Group is the largest educational conglomerate, specializing in textbooks.

Not to mention textbooks, even the supplementary materials for a single subject would amount to a considerable sum.
