Chapter 522
The room fell silent.
Some directors had known about this news but dared not say anything.
It was a fight between Edgar and Edbert Royden, and they dared not offend either of them.
They could only stay neutral and watch, so they could choose which side to stand on when it was time.
As soon as Xena finished speaking, Miles immediately took out his phone.He wanted to make a call to confirm this news.
However, Edgar raised his hand and stopped Miles.
Miles stopped and stood by Edgar's side.
When Xena saw Edgar's face darken, she thought the method Edbert taught her had succeeded.She thought she held the upper hand.She smiled in satisfaction.
"Mr.Edgar, this project will bring a lot of profit to our company.I intend to tell the project department to convert the company to our subsidiary company in the next quarter."
"That means that starting from August, there will be no Eyer Group in Yorktown.No matter how great it was in the past, it has gone bankrupt and is sold off.That means it's useless now."
Edbert did not teach her to say this.It was Xena's thoughts.She was too jealous of Jean, so she wanted to use words to hurt Jean to get even.So she did not watch her words.
However, she did not expect Edgar to get furious when he heard her words.
No words were able to describe the look on his face.
Xena would already be dead if Edgar's looks could kill.
The directors noticed Edgar's change in expression.
They lowered their heads in fear.
On the other hand, Xena did not notice anything wrong until Edgar chided her.
"I am the decision maker in Royden Group.Who are you to decide? From now on, you will take responsibility for any loss the group suffers from this project’ Xena was stunned.She only managed to speak after a long while.
"The project has already started.If the company puts in money, it will work.How could there be any losses?"
Everyone in the company knew that Xena had made many mistakes during her internship.She had never done anything right.
How does she have the guts to challenge Edgar? "Miles, teach her the process of acquisitions and all the things she must take note of during the process.Let her copy it a thousand times if she cannot remember."
Edgar got up and ordered coldly, "Meeting is adjourned."
All the directors got up and nodded at him as he left.
They gave Xena a sympathetic look.
When Edbert brought her into the company, some had speculated that she might become one of Royden Group's successors.
But after seeing her apprehensive over just a few words from Edgar, they doubted if she could fight him.
"I think it would be Mr.Edgar."
"He is still young, after all.He is young and talented.Not anyone can win against him."
The directors left in small groups.
Xena's eyes were full of fury.She quickly took out her phone and checked the script Edbert had taught her.She confirmed every single word and mumbled to herself, "I didn't say anything wrong!"
Their initial plan was to take over Eyer Group after all.George, who was standing at a side, said helplessly.
"You were too impatient.You stepped over Mr.Edgar's line."
"And what was it?"
"Jean"
He was okay with it if they wanted to touch Eyer Group.He was more than happy for someone to instigate the acquisition of Eyer Group among the directors.
That way, he would have more of a reason to approach Jean.
But Xena's words were too mean just now, so it had angered Edgar.
At the same time.
Jean was at the hospital, accompanying Gigi for her check-up.She had promised that her full cooperation, so she had to have a complete health check-up before being admitted.
"Ms.Eyer, please turn around."
Andrew checked the room temperature and pushed his glasses higher as he spoke.
Nathan walked nearer to her and said, "He is one of the doctors under my brother's supervision.Even though he is young, he is competent.You can be rest assured"
"Thank you."
Jean smiled.
