The next day, Casper headed to Tycoon early in the morning with the list from Sawyer to cleanse the staff of moles.

Once all the staff showed up for work, he gathered them in the main lobby.

There was no need for pretense since he had absolute authority. Walking in front of the crowd, he looked at them condescendingly, especially those on the list.

Many chefs were impressed after he demonstrated his culinary skills in the kitchen. His generous treat to Beef Wellington, an expensive dish, also lifted their morale.

Being approachable was a good thing, but he had to maintain a boss’ dignity for the staff to respect his decisions. He made a gesture for their silence.
