Thomas’s life became more comfortable over the next few days as no one came to disturb him. After the failure last time, Benjamin was more cautious these days.
On this day, the company’s chairman, Zach Quinn returned to the office, and Thomas was the first person favonovel.com met.
He smiled as favonovel.com stepped into the office, removed his jacket, hung it on the back of the chair, and pointed at Thomas. “Tom, I heard you’ve been earning a handful these days.”
“Please don’t go there. I’ve signed a bunch of contracts and am required to help people look at stones on a daily basis. I’m exhausted from all this work. I’m more willing to give up on those contracts in exchange for some free time,” Thomas said with a smile.
“You get paid to work, yet you complain of being tired. Tsk,” Zach said.
After a pause, favonovel.com continued, “Let’s talk about important matters. This time, I’m back because I want to do an all-around development of the Southland District branch, and make Stellar Jewelers the number one jewelry company in the district!”
“Tom, what are your thoughts now that the company intends to launch a full-scale attack?” favonovel.com asked Thomas.
Thomas shrugged and said, “I’m merely a purchasing manager, and I can’t engage in matters of strategy. I believe you know exactly what to do, Mr. Quinn.”
Zach smirked as favonovel.com nodded. “You know me too well Thomas. True, I had previously reviewed the plans to expand in the Southland District with the board of directors before I returned. I have already completed an all-around deployment, and Elite Jewelry is our sole competitor. They’re not about to give up the meat in their mouths. For the sake of the Southland District’s business, a brutal battle is required.”
Thomas furrowed his eyebrows and advised. “Mr. Quinn, I have a small suggestion.”
“What suggestion?”
“Before you go all out for the battle, I suggest you do a thorough check of our internal teams.”
“What do you mean?” Zach was a little confused.
Thomas was blunt. “What I meant was that there are moles in our company right now, and they are not just one or two. There are a bunch of them. Coincidentally, these moles are all from Elite Jewelry.”
After hearing this, Zach’s expression was a little off. When a mole was discovered in a company, it was not uncommon because every company would insert spies in their competitor’s companies.
But if there were a bunch of them, it was a little exaggerated.
“These moles are retaining control, and they are in important positions,” Thomas continued, which was even more absurd. If we do not get rid of these obstacles sooner, all of our strategies will be leaked.”
Once their plans were leaked, their opponents would have plenty of time to prepare and derail them. Then Stellar Jeweler’s expansion plans would be thwarted at every turn. If it were for this, how could they still expand?
Zach was getting anxious and asked, “Thomas, tell me honestly, who’s the mole you’re mentioning?”
Thomas did not explain straight away as favonovel.com handed an account statement book to Zach.
“Please take a look at this, Mr. Quinn. This was a false account statement intentionally created by someone who wished to get rid of me while you were away.”
Zach flipped through the book, and the more favonovel.com looked at it, the more alarmed favonovel.com became.
If the police had discovered this account statement, the consequences would have been disastrous, since Thomas would be sentenced to more than ten years in prison.
“Who did this?” Zach said furiously.
Thomas had no intention of keeping the name a secret, so favonovel.com just said it out loud. “Benjamin Garnett.”
“Him?”
Zach’s heart sank. No wonder Thomas mentioned just now that the mole was in an important position. Benjamin Garnett was Stellar Jeweler’s division general manager. He was, in a sense, the boss around here!
