The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 64

Chapter 64 

Samuel tossed ten fresh and pretty dresses onto the big screen, 

With just one glance, Arabella spotted several issues: “The lace on the first one is a bit excessive; The second one is to turn the maxi into a mini and swap the V–neck for a round one. The hem on the third one could be altered like this.” 

After Arabella finished critiquing all ten dresses, everyone was gobsmacked. They were clearly taken aback by her professionalism. 

They originally thought the person sent by HQ would be unreliable and didn’t take this girl seriously. But she pointed out the problems casually and effortlessly. 

She must obviously know her way around design, and even more so than them. 

Otherwise, how could she spot the problems and offer better solutions in such a short time? 

“Ms. Bennett, even if our designs are top–notch, we’re helpless when some colleagues don’t pull their weight!” 

“The company atmosphere has always been lax. Even if you resist, others will astracize you!” 

“We’re stuck between a rock and a hard place with insufficient professional manpower and knowledge. HQ is just keeping us around without making use of us, but they also aren’t planning to let us go.” 

Many voiced their concerns, pointing out the issues. 

“Before I joined the company, I did some snooping.” Arabella’s gaze swept across the room. “Our company integrates product design, development, production, and marketing. We also take on some outsourced orders, like producing products for other factories. Currently, aside from clothes, shoes, and bags, we also have men’s and women’s accessories, such as scarves, sunglasses, and other related products.” 

But a year had passed and the company was still in a rut; clearly, something’s up. 

“I took a walk around the company earlier and noticed some machines are too outdated; they can’t keep up with the times. So, I want the purchasing department to replace them within three days. This includes cutting machines, sewing machines, printing machines, needle detectors, automatic packaging machines, and so on. I’ll make a detailed list.” 

People were getting a little pumped at this! They’ve been wanting to replace these machines for a long time! 

The company is going in two directions: we must have work we’re proud of, and to maintain our current development, we still need to take on some outsourced orders.” 

“There’ll be a big shakeup in management, so brace yourselves.” 

“Anyone unwilling to work with colleagues or who can’t accept changes at work should feel free to submit their resignation to HR.” 

“If you have any issues, feel free to drop by my office. That’s it for today’s meeting. Dismissed!” 

Arabella stood up, exuding a strong and cool boss vibe. 

Many watched her retreating figure, sensing the company was about to undergo some changes–and for the better! 

Back in her office, Arabella’s phone started vibrating. “Grandpa Alberto?” 

“Okay, I’ll send you my location.” 

“Sure thing.”
