Renee calmed herself down and returned to the Azure Group.
“Miss Everheart!”
The employees were delighted to see Renee return safely. They happily greeted her.
All the employees that still remained at the Azure Group were loyal people who were determined to
follow Renee.
Although there were not many of them and their abilities could not be considered outstanding, they
were all passionate, gutsy people. They made sure to properlyplete all the tasks they were
assigned.

Renee nodded to the employees, then turned to her assistant, Shelley, and said, “Notify every
department that we will be holding the monthly meeting right away. All the employees must attend.”
“Yes, Miss Everheart!”
Shelley replied respectfully.
At the same time, Shelley thought to herself that Miss Everheart seemed to be in a great mood. She
and Mr. Hunt must have had a great time togetherst night. That means… the “marriage alliance”
between the Azure Group and the H Group would very likely happen.
The conference room wasrge enough to amodate over a hundred people. In the past, it would
be filled to capacity during monthly meetings, but today, less than a fifth of the room was filled. The rest
of the seats were empty. It looked sad.
Renee took the center seat. She could not help but sigh when she saw how sparse the staff had
be.
The Azure Group went through four years of ups and downs to reach this point.
When Liam Osborne left, he took a bunch of people with him.
Laura Osborne then took advantage of the Azure Group’s moment of weakness to loot them. Not only
did she empty theirpany treasury, she even took away a group of elites.
Among those elites were R&D experts that Renee admired and designers that Renee valued very
highly…
In short, the Azure Group had been bled hard. The only reason they could continue operation was
purely because they were tough enough.
However, the days of humiliations wereing to an end. The era belonging to the Azure Group was
about to begin!
“Today is our first monthly meeting after ourpany has gone through a major adjustment. I believe
all of you who stayed behind are people who believe in me. You might feel lost and confused right now,
you might even be worried that the Azure Group won’tst long, but today… As the Chairman and CEO
of Azure Group, I assure you that as long as you follow my orders andplete your tasks well, we
have a bright future ahead of us.”
Renee’s voice was not loud, but it was powerful, and it made the staff boil with excitement.
It all sounded like a pie in the sky, but because it was Miss Everheart who said it, they believed that it
would definitelye true!
But the expression of Jay Yassin, the manager of the Market Expansion Department, remained solemn.
He hesitated a few times, but finally decided to raise his hand to say something.
Renee turned towards Jay Yassin with a sharp gaze and asked, “Is there a problem, Mr. Yassin?”
“Miss Everheart, first of all, allow me to express my respect and trust for you. However, I have to be
honest. Whilepleting the tasks you assigned, I had some doubts… To be more precise, I don’t
agree with your decision.”
Amotion rose among the staff. They cast hostile nces at Jay Yassin.
After all, they saw Renee as a “goddess”. How dare he openly question the decision of the “goddess”?!
“Please borate, Mr. Yassin.”
Renee remained calm.
She knew that all the people who stayed behind were those who sincerely wanted thepany to do
well. Even if they had disagreements, they all merely wanted what’s best for thepany. She
naturally had to respect their opinions.
“I actually agree with what Ms. Osborne said. I don’t understand why you would keep spending money
to establish a Research and Development Department and a Production Department even though the
Azure Group is facing financial difficulties. Do we really have that many things to research and
produce?”
“If ourpany isn’t operating at such arge scale, why do we have to establishrge-scale R&D and
Production departments? It’s a waste of money.”
