Chapter 57: NexaByte Technologies

Teresa couldn’t take this sudden turn of events lightly. Her eyes narrowed slightly as she leaned forward, voice firm yet curious.

"From the looks of it, you were prepared to assign her as my assistant from the very beginning. Why?"

Eleanor sighed and leaned back, crossing her legs with a calm grace. "Yes, that’s correct. There were several reasons. First, you genuinely needed some assistance. Even though you have the support of an entire conglomerate, your personal workload has been growing exponentially. I had planned to assign more assistants to you, but so far, she is the only one I found fitting."

She paused, folding her hands neatly on her lap. "Second, she’s not just any employee. She’s an experienced lawyer with basic combat training. Her family background checks out... clean and trustworthy. And most importantly, she’s single. No personal distractions, no entanglements."

Teresa nodded slowly, absorbing the explanation as Eleanor continued.

"Third, I want you to focus on building the vision, not running every little detail. I’ve noticed you’ve been following up on every task yourself, and that’s a waste of your strategic potential. Your productivity will increase drastically if you have competent people running things and simply reporting back to you. And lastly... I will need more assistants in the future. What better way to train someone than under your direct supervision?"

Teresa gave a thoughtful nod, her expression softening. "Okay. I understand now."

"Don’t forget to bring her to the villa with you," Eleanor added, then shifted topics. "Speaking of which, when can we sign the documents for the villas?"

"Tomorrow morning," Teresa responded. "We’ll need to go to the property management office. I’ve already coordinated with the other villa owners. Everyone has agreed."

"What about the one who initially refused to sell?" Eleanor asked with a raised eyebrow.

Teresa smirked slightly. "He came around after speaking with the others. Peer pressure works wonders."

"Excellent," Eleanor replied with a pleased nod. "Now we can move forward with enclosing the entire area without any issues."

"I’ve already spoken with the property management team," Teresa added. "Tomorrow, they’ll show us the layout and proposals on how we can secure the villa area."

"That’s perfect. We’ll finalize everything then."

Eleanor then turned her attention to Maya. "Maya, do you have the report on Indian companies?"
