Chapter 30
Right after Darrion spoke, a few other shareholders echoed his sentiment.
“Yeah, this happened to me too. My work is in a mess! Now, one person has to bear the
workload that originally belonged to three people. No one can stand it!”
“If this situation continues, MY Corporation will close down one day!”
“Honestly, Miss Pond, you established this company, but you weren’t around for a few
years. Even if you have ideas, you should carry them out step by step. Don’t get
everything done at once!”
Silvia did not respond. Instead, she looked at Dulcie nonchalantly and said, “Show me
what Mr. Torres’s department has been working on recently.”
Darrion’s expression changed. “Miss Pond, what is the meaning of this? You don’t trust
me?”
Silvia took a folder containing the document from Dulcie. Then, she smiled and said, “Mr.
Torres, I have more faith in data than your character. After all, data won’t lie to me.”
“How dare you!”
Darrion’s face turned red with rage, but Silvia closed the folder and looked at him coldly.
“Mr. Torres, based on the document, your department only has five projects in total. The
deadlines for three projects are half a year away. Besides, you started the two other
projects one year ago and
have yet to finish them.
“You shouldn’t come to me. Instead, you should reflect on why your staff members
couldn’t finish two projects in one year even though there were so many of them
previously!”
Silvia criticized Darrion until his face turned red. He felt totally embarrassed. He gritted his
teeth and said, “Those two projects are in their final stages. Aside from that, other staff
members have their own projects. We can’t ask them to leave their work to clean up this
mess, right?”
Silvia was not amused. “That’s your business. You don’t have to tell me how you assign
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇttasks. What I want is the final outcome! Besides, your department hasn’t secured any
deals this year. If your department doesn’t produce any profit for the company, I’ll
consider closing it by the end of the
year.”
Darrion’s expression turned dour. He glared at Silvia. “Miss Pond, this company doesn’t
belong to you alone. You can’t act like a dictator.”
Silvia challenged him. “In that case, we’ll look at your earnings at the end of the year. If
your department continues to make a loss, it’ll affect the other shareholders‘ bonus.”
Immediately after, all the shareholders looked at Darrion differently. The shareholders who
had initially planned to cause trouble like Darrion felt a cold shiver run down their spines.
Silvia did not look at Darrion anymore. She appeared indifferent as she said, “I’ll make
quarterly and

Silvia did not look at Darrion anymore. She appeared indifferent as she said, “I’ll make

annual plans for each department. If it performs way worse than planned by the end of the
year, either hand the department over to someone else or shut it down.” 1

Seeing that everyone was silent, Silvia got up and said, “If there are no issues, we’ll end
the meeting here. Dismissed!”
Darrion stared at her gloomily as she left.
In the subsequent days, Silvia kept herself busy with her company. She did not interact
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmuch with Neil either. They would only meet whenever they left and returned to the
mansion every day.
Soon, it was the day before Dulcie’s birthday. After Silvia punched out, she headed to JM to
pick up the gown she had prepared for Dulcie. 2
As soon as she entered the shopping mall, she bumped into Ada and Melanie. They were
holding hands while shopping.
When they saw Silvia, their expressions changed.
Melanie frowned at Silvia as she coldly asked, “Why are you here?”
“I came to do something.”
Melanie was her mother–in–law, but Silvia knew that Ada had always been her ideal
daughter–in- law. Therefore, no matter how hard Silvia tried to please her all these years,
Melanie never took her seriously.
However, Silvia had gotten over it. She was also not as nervous as she used to be when
she faced
Melanie.
Melanie was annoyed when she noticed that Silvia was about to leave. “I’m planning to
buy two
dresses. Since we bumped into each other, come and help me out!” she said.
In the past, Melanie would often buy dresses that did not suit her. However, after she went
shopping
with Silvia a few times, she realized that Silvia could always find the most suitable dress
for her. Other rich ladies would also compliment her when they met her. This made her get
used to letting Silvia pick dresses for her whenever she went shopping.
She was shopping with Ada today. The dresses that Ada picked for her looked nice as well.
Yet, when she put them on, they did not seem as great as those picked by Silvia. 1
Even though Silvia heard Melanie’s commanding tone, she remained indifferent. “I have
something to do. Ada can help you out.”
Silvia left after that.
Melanie was furious. She glared at Silvia as she gritted her teeth and said, “She’s pissing
me off! I shouldn’t have let her marry Neil!”
“Mrs. Remus, don’t be angry. That’s just how she is. She’s not doing it on purpose.”
When Melanie heard this, she frowned without another word.
