Revenge With My Undercover Cop Hubby novel Chapter 417

Chapter 417 Kelly Begins Her Rampage

Kelly sold the proxy rights for the shares of Jasper and Shane, using the funds to cover costs for two projects. With the financial gap bridged, the projects were saved, and for now, Lockhart Group was ba solid ground.

The company was riddled with leeches. Zev had been quietly removing these threats one by one, but with him gone, these problems had been left to grow.

“Ms. Yeager, this is the list we found in HR records from when Mr. Lockhart was still here, along with recent hires brought in by Quentin. They all need to be dealt with,” Hanson said, setting the files in front of Kelly

When Zev was in charge, he carefully handled these threats, ensuring everything ran smoothly without disruption.

But with him absent, Lockhart Group was falling apart inside and out, and these people were ticking time bombs, ready to go off.

Hanson was worried, but without Zev’s leadership, he didn’t know how to proceed.

To be honest, Hanson didn’t expect much from Kelly. After all, it was good enough that she managed to stabilize the situation at Lockhart Group.

After all, she was a doctor, not a corporate strategist. She was skilled in medicine, not in navigating the tangled web of power struggles or rooting out hidden dangers in a company.

Kelly looked over the list, then met Hanson’s gaze. “I want a full investigation. Get me all the details: their positions, relationships, job roles, and family backgrounds.”

Hanson hesitated, confused. “You want us to investigate all of these people?”

“Make it fast. You have 24 hours,” Kelly replied coolly, already returning her focus to the project proposals on her desk.

Though Kelly wasn’t a business expert, her years in a hospital had taught her a far more tactical and decisive mindset than most people in this corporate environment.

In the hospital, everything was high stakes. Every decision had to be made quickly, without hesitation. Doctors had to act with precision–no room for error. She had dealt with fierce competition, internal politics, and battles for promotions.

Compared to the corporate world, Kelly’s mental toughness and ability to make snap decisions were unmatched.

“Alright, I’ll get on it right away!” Hanson said, nodding and quickly leaving.

Kelly’s presence was impossible to ignore.

It wasn’t just the cold, calculated manner in which she handled everything; it was the intensity of someone who had fought through life–or–death situations and spent years in an environment where the stakes were always high.

“Ms. Kelly, the partners downstairs are making a scene. They say the project is almost finished, but we haven’t paid them yet…

The secretary burst in, looking frantic.

With Zev gone and Quentin out of the picture, the whole company was falling mar tha risk, and the usual chain of command had disintegrated

Kelly couldn’t help but laugh softly, the amusement barely contained. The approval for the projecte nothing more than her signature, a quick check, and the funds would be released. Yet, no one from or the project team had bothered to approach her.

It was a blatant attempt to undermine her authority, assuming she couldn’t handle it just because she was a

wornan.

She took off her glasses, rubbed her temples, then put them back on with deliberate calm. It was time to take control.

“Kelly, maybe you shouldn’t go down there. Let Mr. Willard handle it… Some of the clients can be difficult What if they get violent? I’d hate for you to get hurt,” the secretary suggested nervously.

Kelly didn’t respond. This was exactly the moment she had been waiting for.

Those people think too highly of themselves. Now they’ve given me an opportunity to establish my authority.

“Where’s your manager? Where is the person in charge? Where’s our payment?”

“I demand to see your boss!”

Downstairs, chaos erupted. Yelling, smashing, and the atmosphere was chaotic.

Everyone was watching, waiting for Kelly to back down. How could a woman possibly keep control of this situation, especially with everything falling apart?

When Kelly stepped out of the elevator, her sharp, businesslike appearance took over. Her tailored suit made her look like a force to be reckoned with, and her gold–rimmed glasses added to the impression of a no–nonsense executive ready to take control.

The secretary followed behind, too nervous to speak. Kelly’s aura was intense, radiating a kind of authority that demanded respect.

“Where’s the security? Do I pay you for nothing?” Kelly’s voice was low but undeniably furious.

No one answered.

“Where’s the person in charge? Get him out here!” a few troublemakers yelled while smashing things with bats.

It amused her that such a large company could let a group of troublemakers wreak havoc without anyone stepping in.

It was clear–some senior executives were watching from the sidelines, waiting for her to mess up.

“I am the person in charge. Is there a problem?” Kelly’s voice was calm but firm.

The secretary’s face went pale. She could already feel the tension rising. She feared these people might try to physically intimidate Kelly.

“You’re in charge? Are you kidding? Lockhart Group is falling apart, and they put a woman in charge? You think you can handle this?” One of the men sneered, brandishing a bat as if to threaten her.

Kelly didn’t flinch. She stood tall, unwavering, staring him down with a cold, steely gaze. If that bat touches me, we’ll talk about the payment later. I’ll ruin you financially fire. Don’t forgets Lockhart Group’s legal

team never rests”

Kelly’s piercing stare made the man instinctively recoil.

The tables had turned completely rather than frightening Kelly, he found himself unnerved by her.

“Hey who the hell do you think you’re scaring, bitch? Your people owe us, and now you’re trying to act tough? What’s stopping me from teaching you a lesson right now?” The hired muscle puffed up his chest and made a move toward Kelly.

Without a moment’s delay, Kelly’s palm shot out in a vicious backhand that snapped the man’s head sideways, dazing him instantly.

He stared at her dumbfounded, fingers gingerly touching his rapidly reddening cheek.

Since when could a woman hit with such brutal force?

Kelly’s frosty glare turned toward the idle security team. “Am I supposed to give you instructions, or do you actually know why you’re here?”

The security staff hesitated, but eventually stepped in to subdue the troublemakers.

“Assess the damage and have them pay for it. Take them to the police. Let the authorities deal with them.” Kelly ordered, her voice like ice.

She turned to the remaining partners and continued, “Lockhart Group has always valued long–term partnerships. Out of respect, we’ve agreed to advance some of the project costs. But according to the contract, we’re only obligated to pay after the work has been completed and inspected to our standards.”

Her eyes scanned the room, her voice sharp with authority. “Paying you early is a favor. If the quality is subpar, we’ll deduct from your payment. Are you unable to tell who’s in charge here?”
