"It's because of Jessie." The assistant lowered her head, "Didn't she take a leave of absence two days ago? She distributed all the work in her hands and gave it to the people below her, including some work that she could only handle, she also distributed it."
"What?" Violet stood up in surprise, "The business that only she could handle was distributed?"
"Yes." The assistant nodded, "I was surprised and asked her why she did this, and she said that there was a chance she wouldn't be able to come back, so that's why she distributed these work early, so that people could get familiar with the work, so I guessed that she is going to resign from her position, so I asked you if you want to recruit a new director."
So that was the case.
After hearing the assistant's words, Violet's red lips pursed up tightly.
How could she not expect that Jessie would actually divide all her work among the people below her?
And Jessie actually said something about the possibility of never coming back.
What did that mean?
Was Jessie really planning to resign?
Violet bit her lip.
But that wasn't right, if Jessie really wanted to quit, there was no way she wouldn't have told her.
Furthermore, the company was owned by both of them, and what good would it do for her to resign as the second shareholder? Where could she go if she resigned?
And at first they said that they would grow the company properly, develop it into a public company and then create their own luxury brand.
However, now that the goal had not been achieved, there was no way that Jessie would quit and leave.
So there was something going on here, for sure.
Thinking, Violet squeezed her palms and looked to her assistant, "Alright, I know, you go out first."
"Yes." The assistant responded and was about to leave.
But after just two steps, Violet thought of something else and opened her mouth to call out to her, "Wait."
"Do you have any more orders, Miss Hunt?" The assistant stopped and turned her head to ask.
Violet spoke, "You go now and take back all the work that can only be handled by Jessie and put it in Jessie's office."
"Okay." The assistant nodded in response.
Violet sat down again and pinched her brow.
No matter what, for the work that can only be handled by Jessie, she could not just hand it over to the people below, after all, a lot of this involved company secrets, and she was not comfortable handing it over to the people below.
Also, she didn't want the job to be tainted by someone else.
Of course, if Jessie really quit, that was another story, of course.
She just couldn't believe that Jessie would quit.
Thinking about this, Violet took out her phone and dialed Jessie's number.
The phone was soon connected and Jessie's somewhat tired voice came, "Violet, what's wrong?"
"Jessie, are you planning to resign?" Violet asked in a deep voice.
Jessie's face changed when she heard this, "I ......"
Hearing the panic in her tone, Violet's heart sank and her brows furrowed unexpectedly, "Why, Jessie?"
She squeezed her phone tightly, "Jessie, if the assistant hadn't just told me about finding a new director to take over your job, I wouldn't have known that you handed over all your work!"
Listening to Violet's angry words, Jessie lowered her head knowing that she was at a disadvantage, "I'm sorry, Violet, I ......"
