Chapter 570: How to Leave with Dignity


    After Daniel Marshall took his seat, the man and woman also sat in their designated seats.


    Before starting the meeting, Daniel introduced the new executives that had joined the team to the people present.


    “Situated next to me is Mr. Jimmy Gordon, who, as of today, will be the Vice President of Marshall Corporation, recing the responsibilities of President James Marshall who has been transferred to our overseas office. Across from us is our new colleague, Ms. Emily Bailey, who as of today, will be the Director of Public Rtions for Marshall Corporation.


    In order to align with international standards and proactively promote globalization, and in light of the sudden issues that the corporation is currently facing, Manager Martinez will be busy. That said, I have specifically invited Ms. Emily Bailey, who has abundant experience in international public rtions, to join Marshall Corporation.


    Manager Martinez will focus exclusively on managing the risks posed to the corporation by the ident involving our former chairman. It’s a challenging task. If not handled properly, it could potentially bring unimaginable losses to Marshall Corporation. Please handle it carefully, Manager Martinez. I appreciate your hard work.”


    Daniel’s piercing gaze was fixed on Grace Martinez. However, Grace did not shy away, but met Daniel’s gaze head-on.


    Grace was fully aware that, on the surface, Daniel seemed to bemending her, acknowledging her; in reality, he was attempting to strip her of her powers.


    Although it was something Grace had anticipated, she didn’t expect it toe so soon.


    Clearly, Daniel had been prepared. The car ident involving the former chairman had merely offered him a legitimate reason to eliminate her from her position, while simultaneously dealing with James Marshall.


    Daniel had used reasonable and justified arguments to promote others, leaving Grace with no counterpoints. Moreover, it would be inappropriate for her not to delegate power, especially when handling the current public rtions crisis was indeed her primary task.<div>


    If she failed to handle it well, she was at risk of being instantly thrown out of Marshall Corporation by Daniel.


    No matter the oue, Grace had no choice but to receive the hot potato that Daniel tossed her way. There was no room for excuses.


    “Yes, Chief Daniel! I’ll certainly manage the corporation’s public rtions risks—one could say it’s my duty. I greatly appreciate your trust in me.”


    Daniel’s lips parted slightly as he spoke in a lifeless monotone, “That would be great, Manager Martinez. Please hand over your other responsibilities to Director Bailey afterwards. Regarding the corporation’s current crisis, you can ask for support whenever needed. The whole corporation will provide full assistance.”


    Grace smiled, but her cunning eyes shed with a hint of contempt and disdain, “Thank you for your thoughtful consideration, Chief Daniel. If I encounter any difficulties, I will certainly discuss them with you.”


    Daniel’s handsome face remained expressionless as he calmly said, “The meeting officially begins now. Please proceed, President Marshall.”


    All those present remained silent. It was obvious to everyone that, although Chief Daniel was ostensibly promoting Grace, he was effectively demoting her.


    After the mishap involving the former chairman, regardless, it seemed that Manager Martinez would have to leave Marshall Corporation. This was clearly a way of asking her to step down.


    Upon hearing this, everyone understood that, from now on, all matters rting to the PR department should be directed to the newly appointed Director Bailey. She was now truly in charge of the PR department.


    Those who were appointed by James Marshall were now at risk of being expelled from Marshall Corporation. James seemed to be getting ready for a clearout and he wouldn’t leave anyone behind. The newly appointed Vice President Gordon was here to help him clear out the remnants of James’s influence.


    This kind of pre-meeting gift was indeed difficult to ept.


    Either resign voluntarily or wait to be swept up in James’s clean-up. There was no way out.


    Therefore, some of the people in this meeting began to n a graceful exit from the Marshall Corporation.


    …


    Adam Howard and Oliver Johnson were both in the president’s office.


    Grace Ziegler had just prepared coffee and was about to take it into the office when Secretary-General Saunders stopped her.


    “Let me carry it in; you can go do other things.”


    Holding the coffee, Grace Ziegler gazed at Secretary-General Saunders, the yful look in her eyes suggesting a need to understand something, “Is Chief Daniel discussing something very important?”
