“A company is a team, not a one-man show,” Peyton stated firmly. “I want every single one of you to understand that. The fact that I’m standing here proves have what it takes-and Grandma has full faith in

“If any of you have something to say, speak your mind honestly today. I don’t want any hard feelings or hidden grudges lingering.”

Ever since Peyton took over the company, he’d worked relessly to make it thrive. And thrive it had-profits this year were way up from last year. The results were there for everyone to see.

If Iris hadn’t trusted him, she never would have handed over such a huge operation to a young man like

him.

At first, many people had doubted him. They thought he was too young to lead. But before long, they’d realized his skills far outmatched theirs. His ideas and strategies were far more forward-thinking than those old-timers.

But after his speech, the room went dead quiet. No one dared to say a word. They could grumble all they wanted behind his back, but face-to-face, no one had the guts to challenge him.

Peyton’s position was too solid. His mere presence was enough to keep everyone in line.

His gaze swept across the room. “Since no one has anything to say, let me be clear. From now on, I will make up for the company’s recent losses. And I will not let any of you down.

“By staying silent, you are agreeing to cooperate with me unconditionally and follow my orders from this point on. And let me warn you-I don’t want anyone scheming behind my back. If I catch wind of any funny business, I’ll have no choice but to show you the door.”

Peyton hadn’t come here just to talk. He’d come to put an end to all the chaos once and for all.

He’d seen everything they’d been up to these past few weeks. He knew their heads had been turned by the scandal. He knew they all wanted him gone.

They’d thought they finally had their chance to take over-until Iris made her stance clear. Her word was law around here, and there was nothing they could do about it.

But that didn’t stop them from seething with resentmen

The room stayed completely silent. Not a single person lared to utter a word.

Peyton felt a small sense of relief seeing their obedience But he knew better than to be fooled. They were biting their tongues now, but their anger was still there, immering under the surface.

“Next, let’s go over the data for our recent projects,” he continued. “We’ll review every detail, and I will hold each of you personally accountable for any issues. You have three days to fix what’s broken. If you can’t handle it, come talk to me. But if the problem is due to our own negligence, I won’t hesitate to take action.”

Peyton knew these people inside and out. He’d been tie up with family drama lately, and he was certain they’d slacked off in his absence. They’d put their own interests first, ignoring what was best for the

company.

The meeting dragged on all day. Peyton didn’t hold back once. He didn’t cut them any slack just because his identity was now a hot topic. He didn’t back down, even though some might have thought he’d lost his

If anything, he was tougher than ever.

The executives seethed with anger, but they couldn’t say a thing-Peyton had caught them red-handed, and they knew it.

“Alright, the meeting is adjourned,” Peyton said coldly. “If these issues aren’t fixed by the deadline, the punishment will be doubled. And I will hold every last employee accountable, not just the managers. Now go back to work and do your jobs properly.”
