Chapter 540
Jean slanted her head and considered. “Probably not. I can see they are not using much force and are showing mercy to each other. Mr. Blanc could have kicked that person, but he grabbed him by his suit instead.”
Edgar raised his eyebrows. “You are very observant.”
Jean looked at him strangely. “Stop flattering me. It sounds fake.”
Edgar smiled at being caught. Then, he followed her into Royden Tower.
John and the others suddenly stopped fighting.
That’s enough. Why are we fighting here? They have gone upstairs. We should rush there and find out the truth.”
John flattened the creases on his suit and said furiously, “We have worked together for so many years. How can all of you still not trust me?”
The other directors did not bother to be polite.
‘You should do your job well before asking us to trust you. Hmph.”
Then, they split into two groups and entered the elevator one after another. Each group refused to look at the other.
Later, more members of the board of directors arrived. They gathered in groups of two or three to strategize for the future. They also could not figure out what Edgar was planning.
“Ever since he bought over Eyer Group, Mr. Edgar is no longer interested in company matters. I think that Eyer woman is behind the things that happened to Mr. Edbert recently.” “I heard she is pregnant. Does she have Mr. Edgar’s baby?” “If she is…” “If you all wish to discuss this matter, you can speak a little louder. Isn’t it faster to ask me?” Jean smiled coldly and glanced at a few faces. “Harold Baldwin, Theo Simpson, Jared Hester…”
She called out their names one by one.
“Mr. Edgar wishes to see you. Please head in.”
She did not call everyone but selected a few people closest to Edbert.
Those whose names were called exchanged glances. “This doesn’t feel right. If there is any matter, it should be brought out to be discussed by everyone.”
Jean could not resist a laugh.
“It’s about the sh*t you did. Are you sure you want me to expose them to everyone? If you don’t care about your reputation, I don’t mind. I’ll inform him now.”
Jean was about to turn around when Harold called after her. “No, don’t. Ms. Eyer, we will head in now.”
He glanced at the other two beside him.
They knew what they did should not be revealed to the public.
Edbert managed to take advantage of their weaknesses, leaving them at his mercy. It was now their chance to break free from him.
Jean watched them enter the room and smiled.
Then, she raised her wrist to look at the time before calling Miles. “You can begin.”
She hoped everyone would like the presents she had prepared today.
While the people upstairs were having a meeting, Jean went to the human resource department. She handed over a name list and said, “Fire everyone on this list.” “All of them?”
Mr. Wheeler, the human resource department manager, saw three pages of the name list and was stunned. He smiled and asked, “Ms. Eyer, did Mr. Royden instruct this?” “Huh?”
Jean’s gaze turned cold. “Do you think I’m lying?” “That’s not what I mean. It’s a major change to the company’s personnel. May I confirm with Mr. Royden about this?” Mr. Wheeler’s voice kept turning softer.
