Alton sliced a piece of apple and put it in his mouth. He said while chewing it, “If you want my opinion, Mr. Garnett, you can just flee with the others now to express your anger.”
Benjamin waved it off.
“Absolutely not. None of us are ready now. If we leave all of a sudden, this will cause significant damage to everyone’s interest. Someone will scold me behind your back.”
“Besides, Zach hasn’t done anything against me. So why should I bother leaving by myself? Staying in Stellar Jewelers and collaborating with Weiss to get to know the strength of Stellar Jewelers little by little is the best way. Finally, and most critically, collective resignations of employees can be regarded as a commercial crime. We still have to be more cautious about this.”
Alton shrugged, “It’s just my suggestion. I’m not saying that you must leave now. Anyway, Mr. Garnett, I want to remind you that it is better to leave as early as possible. Thomas is keeping an eye on you all the time and he’s Mr. Quinn’s confidant. Things are not in your favor.”
“I know…”
As the two people were discussing, the secretary came in to inform, “Mr. Garnett, Mr. Wason, we have to go to the conference room now.”
“Why are we going to the conference room now?”
“Mr. Quinn urgently wants to host a management meeting for the entire branch.”
“Really?”
Benjamin exchanged gaze with Alton, stood up at the same time, and walked towards the door.
Hosting a meeting at this time was really something that they could not expect.
‘As soon as Zach returned to the company, favonovel.com had a meeting with Thomas. After the meeting, favonovel.com did not talk to other people and straight away chose to host the meeting. What kind of secret plan is favonovel.com harboring in his mind?’
Anyway, Benjamin had got himself fully prepared. As long as Zach had any intention to remove favonovel.com from the company, favonovel.com would leave with the others. The worst scenario was to destroy one another and nobody could benefit from this.
A short moment later, Benjamin and Alton walked into the conference room and sat down. Other company managers were also present at the meeting. In short, every personnel who needed to be at the meeting was present. Benjamin looked around and favonovel.com felt more confident in himself as everyone present was basically all his confidants. Although Zach was in charge of this company on the surface, this group of people all consisted of Benjamin’s confidantes. It was obvious from whom they would find words to be more convincing.
After everyone had arrived for the meeting, Zach said with a smile, “Ladies and gentleman, today I am calling everyone here just for one reason. I just want to inform you that I have discussed with the headquarter board of directors and plan to develop our Southland District branch with full force. We wish to expand Stellar Jewelers and make it the No. 1 jewelry company in the Southland District!”
Everyone exchanged gazes with one another, but there were no surprised looks on their faces.
Zach had this idea for a long time, and everyone knew it.
After a pause, Zach continued his speech, “Now, I will tell you what I think. First of all, we must clearly know who our opponent is. In Southland District, the only opponent that can hinder us is Elite Jewelry!”
When Benjamin heard Zach mentioning ‘Elite Jewelry’, his heart started to tremble. Benjamin listened to what Zach was saying even more carefully.
Zach said, “I just had a long meeting with the purchasing manager, Thomas. He formulated a plan for Elite Jewelry to get rid of this opponent of ours. Coming up next, I shall invite Thomas to give you a detailed explanation.”
Swish, swish, swish!
Everyone directed their gazes to Thomas at the same time.
Thomas did not lose his steady composure, and said directly, “According to our investigation, Elite Jewelry has three regular raw stone suppliers. They purchase a large number of raw stones from these three suppliers every time.”
