Pursuing Her Chapter 77

Chapter 77 Ruthless

Willow, who'd been eavesdropping, was dissatisfied. Is Grandpa going to take her side no matter

how big of a mess Sophie caused? It looks like age is getting to him, that's why he starts acting

soft."Dad, are you going to watch Tanner Group fall into ruins?"Yale was still unwilling to accept the

fact that Josiah was taking Sophie's side.” have no choice even if it does fall into ruins. Didn't I give

you a chance too? Tanner Group turned out to be in its current state under your leadership. What

do you have to say for yourself? Now, I've given that chance to Sophie. No matter what decision she

makes, I'll support her. No matter what the outcome is, I'll accept it."Josiah didn't want to say

anything anymore, so he turned around and went upstairs.“What should we do now? The

company's stocks were down by tens of millions within several hours. On the bright side, I presume

not even a single shareholder is on Sophie's side now.""Right, no one is going to want to take her

side with the present situation. The final victory belongs to me. Dad wants her to inherit the Tanner

Group, right? How is that even possible?”l will never let that happen.“Yale, no matter what, she's

your daughter. I hope you don't cross the line.””"Humph, women have no rationale. You treated her

like your daughter, but did she ever treat you as her mother? Has she even shown us any kindness

ever since she returned?”“I only hope you can let her live."She's my flesh and blood, regardless. How

can I not care for her?”That depends on her performance. I won't be heartless if she doesn't get in

my way."Sophie didn’t go to school in the evening. Instead, she went to Transfix Cosmetics’

Development Department.Sophie asked the receptionist, “Is the person in charge around?"“May I

know who you are? Why are you here instead of school at this hour?” the receptionist asked

impassively.The receptionist merely wanted to send the young girl away when she saw it was just a

normal high schooler.”l request an audience with your general manager. Can you have her come

down to meet me?"“Please don't cause trouble here. If you refuse to comply, I'll have to ask the

security to escort you out of the premise.”We don't even get our pay on time these days. Wasting

our time here slacking off feels terrible.”Perhaps it's best I resign from my post. What do you think

we're still doing here? Now that Transfix Cosmetics’ sales are at an all-time low, no, scratch that, I

should say zero sales. If this goes on, we'd lose our job sooner or later, might as well we leave now

and search for new jobs!"“Yeah. I even heard that the Tanner Group had handed us over to a high

schooler. Say, do you think a high schooler can manage the company well? Aren't we going to end

if this goes on?"“I request an audience with your general manager. Are all of you deaf? Also, I'm the

high schooler you're talking about. If you're staying, do your job, otherwise, you can choose to leave

now.”Oh my gosh! Did my boss actually hear me gossip about her?“Ms. Tanner, right? I'll bring you

up right away. The general manager is currently having a meeting.”Sophie followed one of the

receptionists into the elevator and ignored the rest.”Ms. Lineker, we really can't come up with an

idea. We didn’t manage to sell even a piece of cosmetics since the incident. The entire nation is

boycotting us due to Ms. Sophie. Yet, you're asking me to think of a solution for that? That's

impossible.”"Yeah. We all know now how crazy netizens can get. The products they boycott won't be

able to survive. If this goes on, we'll lose our job.”“I'm sorry we can't be colleagues anymore. I've

decided to switch jobs. I hope we'll meet again somewhere.”"You—" The general manager of

Transfix Cosmetics, Wilma Lineker, didn't think her colleague would turn in their resignation.At that

time, Sophie, who had been listening in by the door, gently knocked on the door and attracted the

attention of everyone in the meeting room.”Excuse me." There's no hope for Transfix Cosmetics with

the current management allowing just anyone to enter the conference room. If this goes on, you

won't have any prospects. Does anyone else wants to leave with me?” The woman who resigned

wanted to bring a team with her.”"Ms. Summers, I'm leaving with you.”"I'm going with you

too.”You're crossing the line here, Rachel! It's fine if you're leaving, but now you're planning to take

my people with you? Do you have no regard for me?"Transfix Cosmetics was Wilma's blood, sweat,

and tears. She had worked for Tanner Group since she was a fresh graduate. She was the one who

set up Transfix Cosmetics.” guarantee your new salary will be twice your current one if you come

with me. It's fine if you're unwilling, we'll still be friends.”Rachel got up and left.The few girls that

piped up earlier also got up and left.”Is there anyone else leaving? Anyone who doesn't feel

anything for Transfix Cosmetics may leave now.”Sophie searched for a seat and sat down. The

reason she was there that day was to make some reorganizations. She never thought she would see

such an incident.”You are..."Wilma had never seen Sophie before, so she didn’t recognize her.”I'm

Sophie Tanner. From today onwards, I'll be in charge of Transfix Cosmetics.”"My words earlier still

stand. Anyone who wants to leave may leave now. I won't force anyone to stay.”"Ms. Sophie, you—"

Wilma knew once an employee has a change of heart, it would be pointless if they continued to

stay. However, they couldn't afford to lose more manpower.”Wilma, is it?"With one glance from

Sophie, Wilma immediately stopped talking.”Are you willing to stay?” Sophie asked.”Of course, I'm

willing to stay. Transfix Cosmetics is my blood, sweat, and tears. I won't give up on it no matter

what.”“Yeah. We'll follow Ms. Lineker no matter what happens.”The ones that stayed were Wilma's

trusted subordinates.”Very well. I know all of you have doubts about me. The attack on Transfix

Cosmetics is scary, but please believe me. I have full control of the situation.”"Are you sure it's okay,

Ms. Sophie? The rumors are getting worse. The whole internet is boycotting Transfix Cosmetics.

Even if we have a new product, we can't launch it, and even if we do launch it, no one will buy

it."“You have a new product now?” Sophie turned to Wilma.Wilma immediately handed over a

proposal to Sophie.lt doesn’t matter whether I'm agreeable to being under her management. Since

Sophie is now the person in charge, I'll do what I'm supposed to.Sophie quickly looked through the

entire proposal.”l have three conditions for your current proposal.”“Firstly, the new product's quality

has to pass the quality control. The details...""Secondly, we'll hold a press conference for the launch

a week later. It will be at...”* Thirdly, I want to be in charge our brand ambassador.”
