Chapter 2259 Speaking, Stella glanced at Jaylene. "I'm working at Caline as a shareholder. Just like Ms. Saun and Sonia, we all got in through connections with a certain shareholder. Since you want to use this method to holdand Sonia accountable, should I then also hold Ms. Saun and Ms. Arnold accountable?" Jaylene was left pale and angry by her logically sound yet cryptic words. And Stella's words dealt a heavy blow to everyone present.
The founder of Caline was someone who hadn't been mentioned for many years, so subsequent hires only knew Darcie. On their company website, they praised Darcie as the founder, briefly mentioning the previous partners.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtExcept for those employees who had worked for decades, everyone thought that Caline's success today was all thanks to Darcie. Even when Stella joined the company, they only thought it was Darcie looking after the daughter of her former partner out of sentimentality. After all, whether it was Aubrey or Jaylene, the implication in their words when mentioning this was clear.
But it turns out that the rarely mentioned founder, Ms. Hall, Stella's mother, was actually the largest shareholder, initially holding 90% of the shares. Did she really invest so much money to start Caline, just leaving a 10% investment for Darcie? In other words, Darcie actually only contributed a small amount of money to beca partner in Caline, profiting from the foundation laid by her predecessor.
All those claims of being self-made, an independent businesswoman, a genius in perfumery... They were just reaping the benefits of Ms. Hall's early demise.
Hearing what Stella said, the idea that "If Sonia causes trouble, Stella should resign" made everyone have second thoughts.
Stella held more shares than Darcie, and no one had the authority to dismiss her. It was clearly a message directed at the employees, making it clear that if the essential oil was indeed broken by Sonia, Stella would have to answer to the public for her own words.
Perhaps the only thing that caught Darcie off guard was Stella directly stripping away the persona Darcie had built in the company.

Stella didn't take the bait. "If Sonia did break it, she should compensate As for explaining to everyone, I will humbly learn from Ms. Arnold's approach." The implication was clear: however you handle Jaylene, I'll handle Sonia.
Darcie's face turned slightly green.
"Compensate? With what? Do you ith know the value of this oil? Without it, how many high-end clients will I lose?"
Stella hadn't spoken yet when Sonia, who had been silent all along, said, "I can try. XV Silentatte can try. Nshould be able to recreate it."
