Chapter 174

With that, Genevieve glanced at Jasper and stood up.

“Let’s move the meeting to this afternoon.” With this phrase and nothing more, she left.

What happened in the conference room didn’t upset her.

Not only had Jeffrey prepared her for this, but he also gave her the power to deal with it.

‘While I’m a newcomer, I’m in charge.

‘I can’t get rid of everyone on the first day. I need to give others a chance after making an example of someone,” she thought.

Eric, the project department’s director, hurriedly arrived at the office 20 minutes later, full of sweat and with a pale face.

He looked disheveled in his loungewear.

He tried coming in, but Jasper stopped him.

Eric’s attitude was different from before.

He had dialed Jeffrey to check after hanging up on Jasper.

Jeffrey’s assistant answered the call instead of Jeffrey. He told Eric, “Genevieve’s decision is final.”

These words undoubtedly sent a shiver down Eric’s spine.

He didn’t want to lose employment as a middle–aged man. It wasn’t easy to find a job.

Therefore, he rushed to the office without changing his clothes.

“Let me see Ms. Lawrence. It’s hard to explain things on the phone. There may be some misunderstandings. Let me explain myself to her,” he pleaded.

Jasper’s reply was distant and polite. “Mr. Lawson, please visit the HR department to discuss your severance package. Ms. Lawrence is busy and couldn’t see you.”

“Please help me, Jasper. I didn’t attend the meeting because I had an emergency. I’ll explain to Ms. Lawrence I meant no disrespect…” Eric tried to get in, but Jasper guarded the door tightly.

Chapter 174

Genevieve dialed Sullivan of Eagle Entertainment in her office, as if she wasn’t aware of the situation outside.

“Uncle Sullivan. How’re you there? How’s the new director?” she asked.

Sullivan sighed and answered. “He’s okay. With me watching his every move, he dares not do anything funny.”

The director of Eagle Entertainment was a former employee of a well–known foreign entertainment company. While he was capable, he had many dangerous ideas.

Sullivan had to watch him carefully before allowing him to work with more freedom.

Genevieve hummed. “Did those shareholders give you a hard time when I took the project with me?”

Sullivan sneered and raised his voice. “How dare they? You built that project, and it hasn’t even started. They have no right to say anything. Don’t worry,” he replied. “Your parents said you work in Lawrence Group, and your brother is abroad. Be careful there. It’s harder to handle those in Lawrence Group than Eagle Entertainment.”

Genevieve understood him and smiled. “Yes…”
