Chapter 39 Renee’s decision

*MARCELO*

She seemed serious about wanting to talk to me so I crossed my arins and asked.

“What’s this about, Renee?”

She moved closer to me and brought out a recording.

I frowned as she played the recording.

“Congratulations to our first place winner, Renee Hudson..

“Mr Glenn, I’ve agreed to your offer to endorse STAR.I’ll even reduce my f*e by three million dollars, on one condition… Renee Hudson must not be your collaborative stylist.”

“We announce Alicia Miguel as the selected stylist.Thank you to the other four stylists for participating.”

I watched as Renee turned off the recording and then she said to me.

“Mr King,KM Group’s policy states that the top scorer in the final interview becomes the co–stylist for your company.Isn’t it irregular for an employee to alter the rules for personal gain?I truly believed that I had a shot at KM Group because it had always prided itself about being fair and giving equal chances to all.This contradicts those values, doesn’t it?“Her stern,business–focused demeanor dispelled the flicker of oddness I had just began to

I then understood that this feeling was pity.

But my sympathy seemed to be misplaced because Renee wasn’t a woman to be taken lightly.

“Are you threatening me?”

“I am only revealing the truth to you and show you how business should really be done!” She retorted.

“Renee,both capital and connections are resources.”

“True,no matter the era,capital and connections will sometimes supersede talent and ability.“She paused and continued.

“I am not trying to change societal norms.I just want fairness but…”

“There’s a risk that escalating this could harm KM Group.Our income post–marriage is joint property.A scandal might lead to a drop in GT Group’s stock and profits, which would reduce our income.This would affect my interests too,right? I’m essentially helping you address the company’s negative atmosphere.”

Catherine, impeccably dressed and made up as though bracing for a battle, sat on the sofa with a sullen expression. A representative from the legal departiment explained, “Mr Glenn from the brand department independently decided to sign with Miss Hudson, which contradicts the company’s consensus.
