Carol and Eleanor stared at me in astonishment.
After a while, Carol closed her mouth and looked at me. "You''ve be much cooler, Ms. Chloe. You''re so assertive. You''re such an alpha today."
Was I being assertive?
That was because I hadn''t told them about our true strength yet.
Besides the projects in the capital, the Bourdamun project that was behind us and the uing merger project of Avalon Hills were enough to sustain us for several years in Foswood.
Who else couldpete with us in Foswood?
Why couldn''t I be assertive?
"Why do I feel like you seem different aftering back from the capital?" Eleanor teased.
I smiled. "Just the Bourdamun project alone will give us enough leverage. And besides..."
I looked at both of them, grinning, "Do we really have to renegotiate the contract for Avalon Hills that we''ve already secured?"
Carol seemed puzzled. "Renegotiate the contract? Didn''t we already sign it? Why do we need to renegotiate?"
With a content smile, I exined, "The second and third phases of Avalon Hills have merged, and construction has begun. Just imagine. It''ll be like another Bourdamun. We''re turning it into our high-end brand model."
"Oh? Really?" They asked uncertainly.
I looked at them and said, "We''ve already started reworking the design ns. Is that real enough?"
They eximed, "That''s incredible!"
I turned to Eleanor. "Now that you know, do you think we can do it? If they can''t handle this, how can theypete in the market?"
Eleanor, who had been lost in thought, struggled toe back to reality.
"Soe on, Eleanor! Are you ready for this journey with me?" I asked Eleanor pleasantly.
Carol started to tear up. "I think I''ll join you in the market next time, Eleanor. You''re going to make a fortune."
Eleanor looked at me and said, "I
didn''t choose to work with Ms. Chloe for money. cleared all my debts after my father passed away and don''t really have a strong desire for money I just want to do things well. I can''t live without a career. Lwant to work with you and do big things. You have the integrity and the skills. I knew you could do it from the beginning."
I chuckled.
"So, Bourdamun is our top priority. We''ll have a fresh start after setting up that model. I''ve just cut ties with Yorksen."
"You made the right decision to cut
ties with them. They''re a mess. Oh, Eleanor, did you see how they shamelessly tried to poach our talent right in front of us? I can''t believe it! Who does that? I really want to give that guy a piece of my mind!"
As she talked about the incident at Yorksen, Carol grew agitated and started ranting.
"Jesse reallycks the decency I expect from our business partners. I can''t let his foolishness ruin our business," I told them.
"He really is very unreasonable," Eleanormented. "He probably thinks that the regrrge-scale door orders are enough." "Doesn''t he know about upgrading?" Carol chimed in.
"That''s why decisive action is necessary, just like when you decided to leave Surface Solutions." I looked at Eleanor.
After saying that, I checked the time and told Carol, "Let''s go, we need to get back to thepany. Someone''s waiting for us."
Carol rolled her eyes and grumbled,
"He''s been here so many times. He never discusses anything
substantial with us. He just likes to be at ourpany for no reason. He''s probably trying to poach our talents too. How shameless!"
She ranted for a bit, then turned to Eleanor. "Every time I see Melvern, it makes me angry. Why does he keep hitting on our boss?"
I burst intoughter and said, "Don''t be silly. Let''s get back to thepany. Please finalize your tasks quickly, Eleanor. Report to me promptly once you''ve sorted things out with Jaxford. We''ll get to it."This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
