Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 114

Mira was on her way to her martial arts class to continue her training in combat and medicinal arts.

Although her current rank was only a 1st level Blue Belt, her knowledge of medicine gave her an edge, and very few people could pose a threat to her now.

Her goal for the semester was to reach the Red Belt level in martial arts and become an intermediate herbalist.

At this rate, she could achieve her Black Belt and become an advanced herbalist by the time she graduated from high school.

After her class, Mira didn’t go home. She went straight to Solflare Entertainment.

Since the school year started, she had changed the employees’ weekend to Monday and Tuesday so that she could come into the office on Saturday and Sunday to handle business.

“Good morning, Ms. Mercer!”

Mira was greeted warmly the moment she walked in.

Today, she saw a few new faces. She knew Kieran must have poached them from somewhere or hired them as new recruits.

“Mira!”

Felix Grant, the new promotions manager, had just started today. He had assumed that for Solflare Entertainment to rise so quickly within a month, its boss must be a seasoned industry veteran.

But the person standing before him was a young girl who still had an air of innocence about her.

She was dressed simply, with no makeup, yet she possessed an understated elegance and a vibrant, youthful beauty.

He recognized her—this was Mira, the winner of the arts festival performance that had caused such a stir recently.

At the same time, Mira greeted them. “Hello, everyone. Welcome to Solflare Entertainment. From now on, this is your second home.

As you can see, I’m still in school, so I’ll be counting on all of you to handle things at the company.”

Felix and the others were still in a daze, but when they heard her say she was “counting on them,” they quickly responded.

“Not at all! We’re the ones counting on you, Ms. Mercer, to keep us employed.”

“Haha, then let’s count on each other.

Mr. Holt has already gone over the salary and benefits with you. The more the company earns, the more you’ll earn. But even if the company goes through a rough patch, you’ll still receive your base salary.

We’re a family now, so let’s grow together.”

“Yes, let’s grow together.”

“Dear colleagues, today we are gathered here to review the efforts and achievements of the past month.

Although it has been a short time, in this industry full of challenges and opportunities, we have overcome many difficulties together and achieved many results to be proud of…”

The net profit for the month reached thirty million dollars, a fantastic start. Everyone received a satisfactory salary, bonus, and commission.

At the same time, Mira announced to everyone that starting tomorrow, they would collaborate with the Starlight Music platform to launch paid music.

The company was now well-established, with all departments staffed. It was time to take the next step.

Instantly, the conference room fell silent.

Although Mira had told them to prepare for this, now that it was actually happening, Kieran and Callum still had many concerns.

But in the end, they supported Mira’s decision.

Based on their trust in Mira from past experiences, they knew they should support her. This seventeen-year-old girl had the courage to take bold risks.

The mere fact that she had built such a profitable company in just one month after leaving the Mercer family was enough to earn their full support.
