The next day.

In the Everett Group.

At nine in the morning, Joanna arrived at the company punctually.

In the conference room.

Joanna pushed open the conference room’s door. It was already filled with senior executives of the company.

“Miss Haynes, good morning!”

“Good morning, everyone!” Joanna greeted briefly as she walked towards the head of the conference table and sat in her usual spot.

“Is everyone here?”

“Well, Mr. Roger and Mr. Paul haven’t arrived yet.”

Joanna glanced at her watch, realizing it was already five past nine. “Let’s wait for them a bit.”

Just as she finished speaking, Luna knocked on the door and entered. “Miss Haynes, Mr. Roger just called to say that he’s feeling unwell and won’t be able to attend the meeting today.”

Joanna furrowed her brows in response.

“Also, Mr. Roger called just now. He mentioned he had to deal with an urgent matter at home, and he can’t attend the meeting today.”

Joanna’s brows furrowed even more when she heard that. It seemed that the two of them had planned it together. They intentionally skipped the board meeting.

“Since that’s the case, we won’t wait for them.”

“I appreciate everyone’s hard work during my absence.”

The senior executives lowered their heads and flipped through the documents in their hands.

“Miss Haynes, here’s the performance overview of the company during this period.”

“And also, these are the financial statements and a list of employees who have resigned.”

“Let’s set those aside for now.”

Joanna turned on the computer projection and began the meeting with the management team. “Starting today, I am officially back to work.”

“Today’s meeting will focus on five points. Firstly, the company may undergo a transformation. We will change our direction and focus our sales on Mossbourne.”

“Secondly, I suggest that the management team visit the second and third–tier cities in Mossbourne for market research.”

“The consumer base in these cities is not inferior to that of the first–tier cities. It is a vast consumer market that we must not

overlook…”

The meeting lasted for over two hours.

“Does anyone have anything to add?”

“No.”
