Chapter 175
When it cto this point, Dexter couldn't help but speak more.
"Since you two set the wedding date, Mr. Ludwig started planning the reconstruction of the villa! The villa you
see now has been rebuilt! All for the sake of meeting Mrs. Ludwig's tastes and preferences. Mr. Ludwig said he
used to live alone, and this place was too rugged, with black and white decor. But you like things a bit softer."
Dexter spoke calmly, just like his demeanor, neither rushed nor restless.
Hearing Dexter's words, Mikayla felt a pang in her heart. She hadn't expected Carlos had put in so much effort
behind her back. And she knew nothing about it...
No wonder earlier when she was injured, Carlos took her to a hotel instead of this villa. And that hotel even had
Carlos's personal items.
At that time, she didn't think much, assuming he was just coming back occasionally and didn't want to bother his
family at home. It turned out he was rebuilding the villa, all for her...
"Mrs. Ludwig, marrying Mr. Ludwig is truly a stroke of luck." Dexter finished his words and retreated with the
plane ticket in his hand.
Mikayla sat at the dining table, looking at the delicious dishes with all senses covered, but she couldn't bring
herself to eat. All she could think about was Carlos.
If Dexter hadn't mentioned it today, she would still know nothing.
She forced herself to take a few bites, then left. Josiah, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, was already
waiting outside.
"Mrs. Ludwig!" Josiah opened the car door for Mikayla, calling out respectfully.
"It's been a long time." Mikayla smiled in response and got into the car.

After a brief greeting, Josiah sat in the driver's seat and remained quiet as usual.
Mikayla looked out at the unique scenery outside the window, and the car was quiet for a while.
Xosa was famous for its beautiful scenery, attracting many tourists. It had developed many tourist attractions,
making the economy of Xosa very prosperous.
As a leading enterprise in Xosa, Salvatore Group was considered a standout among the century-old businesses.
However, the electronics industry saw rapid upgrades, and if one wasn't careful, they could lose their
competitive edge. Thus, efforts to innovate were crucial to maintain a strong position.
In recent years, Salvatore Group has been continuously introducing new products, and breaking through existing
technologies, but new companies kept eyeing the lucrative electronics market, using various tactics to attract
customers. Salvatore Group's existing customers were being poached as well.
To control customer churn and bring back lost customers required not only excellent product quality but also a
focus on marketing strategies.
Salvatore Group's stock had been rising steadily after the union of the Salvatore family and the Ludwig family.
Moreover, the incident involving the top celebrity Lauren further highlighted the Salvatore Group.
However, Salvatore Group's market share in the electronics industry had been continuously declining, with new
shares decreasing.
Mikayla got out of the car, entered the company, clocked in, and took the elevator straight to the 17th floor.
Entering her office, she was handed sdocuments by Quinnlyn.
"At ten o'clock, all department members will have a meeting. Invite the product department manager and sales
department manager to attend," Mikayla said to Quinnlyn, placing her briefcase on the desk. "Alright, I'll inform
them now." Quinnlyn neatly arranged the documents on the desk.
Mikayla sat down, powered up her laptop, and pulled out a document from her briefcase. "Hmm! Take this down
for copying. Every participant at the meeting today should have a copy, along with the usual cup of coffee." "Got
it," Quinnlyn replied, taking the document and leaving the office.
Exactly at ten o'clock, all department staff, including the recently returned Maxius, the product department
manager, Tyson, and the sales department manager, Nelson, arrived promptly at the meeting room. Quinnlyn
followed shortly behind Mikayla.
Seated in the center, Mikayla greeted Tyson and Nelson. Quinnlyn distributed the copied documents to everyone
attending the meeting. The meeting officially commenced.
"We've received the batch of test
computers. lexpect everyone to ask questions enthusiastically this time. We have limited time. Let's not
backtrack on the final computer net
plan. want everyone to put in their best effort this time, aiming for the best results in the shortest tpossible,"
Mikayla asserted sternly from the get-go.
"For the tbeing, no one is allowed to take leave for any reason. | expect everyone to keep up with the pace
Mikayla continued, exuding composure and authority despite being a young woman. She didn't blothers
recklessly but chose a stern approach to inspire the team.
"On the work front, if anyone has any suggestions, please speak up. Keeping things to yourself won't help. It's
more effective to solve problems together as a team rather than individually," Mikayla stated bluntly. After she
finished speaking, silence enveloped the room. Mikayla waited for a minute, but no one spoke up. "Since no one
has anything to say, | assthere are no objections. Let's move forward. I'll count on everyone's hard work.
"Next, we will leverage the efforts of the product and sales departments to discuss issues regarding product
packaging and marketing." Mikayla's gaze shifted toward Tyson and Nelson.
"For product packaging, everyone is free to share their requirements. Let's first look at the internal opinions. The
key is innovation. | hope this packaging will impress customers. Everyone, speak up with your ideas," Mikayla
encouraged. Subsequently, everyone in the meeting room began voicing their opinions and requests, sharing
their thoughts.
Mikayla started jotting down notes based on everyone's input. Tyson, the product department manager,
highlighted current trends and suggested which ideas to reject and which ones to consider.

"We'll develop a plan later and submit it to the product department. Please pay more attention to this, Mr.
Gatsby," Mikayla addressed Tyson.
"Ms. Salvatore, no need to be so polite! Mr. Salvatore has already instructed us to fully cooperate with your
department," Tyson replied with a courteous smile.
Mikayla didn't bother with further formalities and turned to Nelson, the sales department manager.
"Mr. Rogers, regarding this sales plan, our team has already prepared a proposal. Please review it and let us
know if there are areas that need improvement," Mikayla said.
Each person has their specialty. Nelson, as the sales department manager and elite, surely had his strengths.
Mikayla acknowledged her limitations in this regard.
Facing the powerful yet humble Mikayla, Nelson had genuine admiration. He carefully reviewed the sales plan
handed over by Quinnlyn, provided his insights, and amendments were made on the spot during the meeting.
Upon hearing Nelson's suggestions, Mikayla integrated her insights, and corrections were made during the
meeting at that time.
Finally, Mikayla extended her hand and thanked Tyson and Nelson.
"I might need to trouble both of you more often shortly," Mikayla said.
Despite her assertiveness, she was aware of her weaknesses and was open to seeking help where needed.
In this battle, only success was tolerated; failure was not an option. Speople possess unique strengths that
must be utilized.
They were just a temporary
department, with a team of no more
than ten. Sometimes, it's better to engage with experts from different fields rather than confine oneself to
limited perspectives. Who knows, such discussions might lead to suitable revelations.
