Chapter 280 Zev's Warning

Finished

In the project department office, Zev led Hanson in, only to find that the department head had not come out to greet them, a clear sign of disrespect towards Zev's new role as the acting head of Lockhart Group:

Despite Zev's position as the grandson of Wade and the sole heir to the ckhart family, his military background rather than one in finance or management led many within the company to doubt his capability to lead.

This skepticism was evident as they seemed to have deliberately deceived him on a project contract, underestimating him as merely a figurehead who was there to collect dividends rather than truly manage the company.

"Where is the head of the project department?" Hanson inquired, breaking the awkward silence.

The assistant, looking nervous and avoiding eye contact with Zev, muttered, "Mr. Kilmer... He has a meeting," with a quick glance towards the closed office door.

"Huh, Mr. Kilmer has a meeting? Can't he recognize who the real boss is?" Hanson scoffed, half-amused and half-annoyed at the audacity. He wondered what exactly Clarissa had told the project department staff to make them so dismissive of Zev, the only heir and future president of Lockhart Group.

The assistant kept his gaze lowered, too intimidated to respond.

As Hanson moved to confront Dave Kilmer directly, Zev calmly raised his hand to stop him, choosing a more composed approach.

"It's okay, Mr. Kilmer is busy with work for the group. I'll wait for him here," Zev announced, ensuring all the project department staff could hear him.

He then strode over to the rest area with confident steps and sat down, his presence alone making the temperature seem to drop.

The staff members all lowered their heads, clearly uncomfortable under his gaze.

It is exceptionally cold today...

Hanson stood by Zev's side, supporting him as they waited.

The assistant to the department head was sweating profusely, evidently anxious about the situation.
