Chapter 983: Chapter 983 He Doesn’t Look Like He’s Joking

Naomi was taken aback, “How do you know about that?”

Sugar Bun suddenly became arrogant as he boasted, “How could I not know? I’m your brother! Naomi, are you really dating Benedict? That’s not too bad! Well, when I return, I’ll ask him for something. He has something with him that I’ve been wanting for a long time!”

“Sugar Bun!” Naomi told him off. “Are you trying to sell your own sister off to gain something in return? Besides, who told you that Benedict and I are together? Don’t you have Internet over there? The news about me dating Nelson is all over the internet!”

Sugar Bun was befuddled, “Nelson? Who is that?”

“In short, he’s the person I like. It’s none of your business!”

“Oh,” Sugar Bun was a little disappointed. “Then, Benedict must be heartbroken!”

Naomi was lost for words.

“Which is more important? Your sister’s happiness or Benedict’s feelings?”

Sugar Bun was startled.

“Of course your happiness is more important!”

Satisfied, Naomi hung up on the call and handed the phone back to Eudora.

“Here you go.”

After that, she turned around and left.

Eudora quickly stopped her, “Naomi, why do you seem to be in a bad mood? What’s wrong? Did something happen in the company?”

As Naomi was about to open her mouth and speak, she saw Amos’s sharp eyes.

She then paused instinctively, “I’m fine! I’m just a little tired from working today.”

Eudora pursed her lips and said, “Let me ask Cindy to make you some hot soup.

“Sure!” Naomi nodded.

After Naomi left, Amos said, “It’s okay, your health is more important. Naomi can deal with her problems herself!”

Eudora nodded. Looking at how worried Amos was, she couldn’t help but let out a chuckle.

“I’m not a child anymore. Why are you so concerned?”

Amos sighed, “In my heart, you will always be a child. You’re my treasure.”

…

Over at Inchee Group.

The next day, Nelson received the latest notice as soon as he entered the company.

Richard was like a robot as he spoke into Nelson’s ear, “This is the latest news from the headquarters. ‘Nelson Luther has failed to respect the company’s regulations and made rash decisions on his own, which has brought losses to the company. After deep consideration, the company has hereby decided that Nelson Luther is solely responsible for the incident. The total amount of loss suffered by the company will be deducted from President Luther’s salary as compensation. Should he violate the company’s regulations again, he will be immediately dismissed from the president’s position.'”

The notice had not only personally been sent to Nelson.

It was also sent to every single employee of the Inchee Group’s branch in Rosaville City!

It was obvious that Monique was trying to give him a warning.

Richard was a little distressed, “Mr. Luther, if things continue on this way, how will the people in the company still respect you? What on earth is Miss Monique trying to do? Are we here to complete a task, or is she planning to ruin your life?”

The corner of Nelson’s lips twitched.

“We’ve come here for the task, but don’t forget that we are just puppets. What are puppeteers most afraid of? They are afraid that the puppets will start to move by themselves and act on their own. Therefore, they are always trying to control the puppets with all their might, to not let the puppets move on their own.”

Richard’s brows knitted, “What should we do now?”

Nelson shook his head, “It’s gonna be alright! I’m here with you. She’s just trying to suppress us for now. After all, she needs us to help her obtain Valiant East! After we take control of Valiant East…”

Nelson did not continue speaking. He looked away.

“Please prepare for the meeting later this afternoon.”

Richard nodded, “Everything has been arranged. I have already informed the top executives of the company this morning. They should all be here in ten minutes.”

“Alright then, let’s go!”

The two of them went out of the office and headed straight to the meeting room.

After Richard pushed the door open, he quickly took a step back to look at the meeting room number carefully.

“It should be in here…”

Nelson was getting annoyed, “Where is everyone?”

Richard then said, “It seems that the thing that we are worried about has finally happened! Mr. Luther, why don’t you go back to the office first? I’ll contact them again…”

Nelson stopped him, “Since when did you become so gentle?”

Richard was stunned, “What?”

“It’s working time right now. Do we have to be so polite towards those who do not comply with the company’s work regulations? Repeat the company’s regulations for me, right now.”

Richard’s body trembled as he replied, “According to the company’s rules, employees who do not follow the company’s instructions will be given a first warning. Those who have committed the mistake once will be penalized lightly. Those who have repeated the same mistake twice will be given a second warning. Those who have repeated the mistake multiple times will be dismissed with immediate effect.”

“Very good! Forward this regulation to every department of the company right now. I’ll be waiting here!”

“Noted!” Richard turned around and left.

After a short while, the whole company received a message of the company’s regulations.

Some of the staff were timid and began to feel worried.

“Will Mr. Luther really punish us according to the company’s regulations?”

“How can it be possible?” some of bolder staff laughed. “You are such a coward. Nelson can’t even protect himself right now! I heard that the boss from the headquarters is really powerful. There used to be someone just like Nelson, but he was fired only after a few days. So, don’t be afraid! Who knows, the next person who takes over after Nelson leaves might be easier to deal with! By then, no one can control us!”

Those who hesitated at first were once again motivated by those words.

“You are right! We can’t be too cowardly! If the company’s superior keeps changing, we, as the long-serving employees, will become more powerful! We’ve all been working for the company ever since the company was still abroad! Who knows, when Nelson has no other choice, he might even increase our salaries to win us over!”

“You’re right! That’s true!”

As a result, even though the message had been sent out, not a single person showed up.

Richard frowned, “It’s been an hour, yet no one has appeared! Mr. Luther, I…”

“Send out another notice. Let them know that they have one hour to repent. If they show up within the next ten minutes, I’ll pretend as if nothing has ever happened. If they’re still that stubborn, let the HR department issue them a warning letter each!”

“Consider it done!”

A few minutes later, all the departments downstairs were in an uproar again.

“Look, I’ve told you! He’s nothing but a big talker. The senior executives are making things difficult for him. If he doesn’t try to win our hearts, how can he gain a firm foothold in this company? There’s nothing we should be afraid of! I bet that he won’t have the guts to issue us a warning letter after ten minutes.”

“You are right!” someone laughed.

One of the more cowardly staff members still gave in in the end. He made an excuse for himself and said, “Let me go up and have a look. If there’s any problems, I’ll let you all know.”

“Useless!” someone snorted, but soon after, everyone began to laugh again.

The cowardly man went up nervously and opened the door.

He hurriedly explained, “Sorry, I-I’m late, I had an e-emergency.” He thought that Nelson would be furious, but he was extremely calm.

“Take a seat! As I said, if anyone shows up within ten minutes, I will forgive them.”

After that, Nelson took a look at his watch, “One minute left! I think no one else will be coming! Richard, let us begin!”

The man who showed up jumped up in shock and thought to himself, “Mr. Luther doesn’t look like he’s joking about this!”
