A Relentless Pursuit for Love novel Chapter 4

As the new CEO, Sage was impressive from the moment she first set foot into the company and had caused chaos on her first day at work.

She had made tremendous personnel changes to the management department. She had more than ten senior management officers, a few founding members, and the directors— those who had taken orders from Braxton and Zane to intimidate her— resign from their positions.

It was early in the morning, and Braxton’s office was already filled with a group of furious people. Some were slamming the tables whilst others were kicking the chairs, and they were shouting wildly. “I don’t give a d*mn about what she says! I have been working my *ss off for the Norah Group for the past few years, and I’ve dedicated at least half my life to this company! Who does she think she is to have me resign?! You better give me a darn good explanation. All I did was follow your orders, but now that you and your niece are back on good terms, you’re willing to sacrifice me? Who do you think you are to walk all over me in such a way?!”

Bellowing with rage, everyone in the room demanded an explanation for their dismissals. Gone were their neat and polite appearances. The people here today looked frightening and aggressive.

Braxton got dizzy from the tumultuous situation as he tried to calm the crowd down. “Everyone, please calm down…”

Zane, on the other hand, was fiddling with his shirt, looking as if he had nothing to do with the situation. He reassured himself that he would still be the vice-chairman of the board of directors.

As the situation was not his responsibility, and neither was he to blame, Zane could not care less about handling the situation.

Though Braxton looked as if he was trying his best to comfort and reassure the crowd, he was exceptionally calm. He knew that he would still retain his position as chairman of the board. Therefore, he was unaffected by the changes in personnel as long as his benefits remained untouched.

In fact, Sage had shown him the list of personnel changes before making the announcement, and the final decision had been agreed upon by both of them.

“Uncle Braxton, times have changed, and we can’t afford to keep those who do not contribute anything to the company. I’ve already spent most of my savings on saving the company. If we continue to allow these freeloaders to benefit from the company, I’m afraid that we will need to start selling our property, and it has come to my attention that there is a piece of empty land that you have acquired which you intend to turn into a golf course…”

At the mention of his benefits, Braxton who had initially put up a defensive front quickly changed his attitude and agreed to Sage’s suggestions regarding the personnel changes.

He was determined to keep freeloaders out of their company.

Sage could not be bothered to explain herself to those old men, so she had left the company and gone straight home.
