Regret Came Too Late

Chapter 318

For the next week, Grace stayed quietly at home.

She made some inquiries about the situation at the company. During that week, Edric was strutting around proudly, replacing everything he didn't like.

A large portion of the upper management supported him, but a few still had a conscience and remained neutral. Now, all those neutral parties had been dismissed and had no choice but to call Grace.

"Ms. Lambert, what should we do? We've been with the company for many years."

Moreover, they were at an age where switching jobs was too much trouble, yet they weren't ready to leave the corporate world just like that. The position of CEO was akin to that of a ruler, and executives had to take a side. If you picked the winning side, the rewards would be tremendous.

And clearly, Edric disliked these fence-sitters.

Grace didn't particularly like them either, but at least they hadn't betrayed Quentin. So, she simply instructed them to wait for two more weeks.

They immediately asked if she had another move planned. It was obvious to everyone that Liam still needed more time to grow. Grace was the one truly in control.

But since she rarely appeared at the company, no one really knew how capable she was.

Grace didn't give them a direct answer and just told them to wait. After hanging up, she even had the mood to cook a meal for herself.
