Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism novel Chapter 310

Upon investigation, they found that the racket that flew apart was new, not old equipment.

Janice who responsible for procurement was held accountable and was just as baffled.

This had never happened before.

"That's impossible. We haven't received any new equipment recently, and the gear for the sports event hasn't even arrived at the school yet."

"Then where did this new badminton racket come from?"

Janice fell silent, unable to make sense of it.

However, a sudden thought struck her.

"What did the racket that flew apart look like? Bring it to me."

She realized that a batch of sample equipment had arrived from the factory recently.

Could it be that one of the sample rackets was the one that broke?

But even as samples, the quality shouldn't have been this poor!

When she saw the remnants of the broken racket, she confirmed it was indeed one of the samples.

The quality was entirely different from what they had previously ordered.

It was easy to tell they were not of the same standard.

At first, Janice thought the factory might have sent the wrong items, so she immediately called them.

The factory confidently insisted that there had been no mistake.

If the factory had sent the wrong items, it would be understandable, but their firm assertion that they had sent the correct samples indicated something was amiss.

Janice quickly went back to check the order form Zelena had submitted.

The listed items did not match the quality of the samples that had been delivered.

Given that this was for the school's sports event, there was no room for mistakes.

Thankfully, they had not yet decided to go with this factory.

If the samples were this poor, what would the entire order be like?

...

The school took this matter very seriously and demanded a thorough investigation.

The next day, Janice called Zelena to the office.

Zelena thought the school was ready to allocate funds.

To her surprise, Janice was there to hold her accountable.

"Zelena, tell me honestly, what is going on with this order?"

Zelena, confused, asked, "Ms. Janice, what are you talking about? I don't understand."

"The samples from the factory you dealt with caused an incident. Yesterday, a racket almost hit the education bureau officials during their visit!"

Zelena was speechless.

What!?

She stood there in shock.
