finished speaking, several shareholders chimed in

"Yeah, it's the same for me. Everything is in chaos! What used to be done by three people is now dumped on one! Who can handle that?"

"If this keeps going on, I'm afraid that Empyria Group is bound for bankruptcy!"

"Let's be honest, even though you are the founder of Empyria Group, Ms. Lewis, you have been absent from the company in recent years, and you have to change things slowly, not all at once!" Angela didn't respond to their comments. Instead, she looked calmily at Brenda and said, "Show me the recent business activities of the department Mr. Black is in charge of"

Frank was startled "Ms. Lewis, what do you mean? You don't trust me?"

Angela took the documents Brenda handed to her, smiling. "Mr. Black, I trust data more than you. After all, data doesn't lie.

"Your" Frank was furious, his face livid Angela, however, had already closed the file and was looking at him, her eyes filled with coldness.

"According to this report, Mr. Black, your department is currently handling only five projects. Three of these projects are due in six months, while the remaining two, which started a year ago, are yet to be completed

"You shouldn't complain to me but reflect why you couldn't complete even two projects in a year with so many people in your department!"

Frank's face turned pale with Angela's words, feeling unterly humiliated. Gritting his teeth, he said. "Those two projects are in their final stages, and everyone else is busy with their own projects. We can't just drop everything else to clean up these two messes, right?"

Angela remained stem. That's your business to figure out. I don't need a report on how you plan to handle it. I want results. Also, your department hasn't secured any partnerships this year. If your teams can't make profit for the company, I'll consider shutting them down by the year's end"

Frank's face was ashen, and he stared at Angela. "Ms. Lewis, this company isn't just yours. You can't make decisions on your own."

Angela raised an eyebrow at him, speaking slowly. "Then let's wait and see the profits at the end of the year. If your department continues to lose money, it will also affect the dividends of other shareholders" At these words, the way all the shareholders looked at Frank changed. Those who had planned to sing the same tune with Frank felt a chill sent down their spines.

Angela didn't look at Frank again, speaking indifferently. I will set quarterly and annual plans for each department. Those who are too far off the mark by year's end will either have to hand over their department to someone else or shut it down"

Seeing that no one else spoke, Angela stood up. "If there's nothing else, let's call it a day?

Frank stared intently at her retreating figure, his eyes filled with coldnes!

Angela was busy with her work for the next few days, barely talking to Kenneth. They only saw each other when leaving in the morning and returning in the evening
