She was aware that the majority of these slackers were executive-levels who received substantial perks from their positions without performing any effort.
With this in mind, she made the decision to restructure the entire organization and redeployment of staff.
Anastasia trusted Felicia, Larry, and Mason the most out of all the employees she knew and they were already in the conference room at this stage.
The process of personnel reformation was quickly brought to a conclusion. The Vice-president was held by Larry while Felicia was promoted to regional chief director. On the other hand, Mason was given an instant promotion and had the responsibility of running the general business operations of the Bourgeois couture line as general manager.
The first thing that Anastasia had to do was to give them responsibilities that were suited for their level of expertise.
In the afternoon, the executives of the Bourgeois organization underwent a transformation. All of the managers who believed their jobs were secure and well compensated were demoted to positions of less significance whereas their salaries were also based on their sales performance.
Meanwhile, the employees who had worked earnestly and honestly for the company were also promoted and rehired. For a moment, sounds of complaints and rants echoed in the big office of Bourgeois while those who were rehired realized at the same time that the top management of the corporation had practiced fairness and justice. This realization motivated their strong will to devote themselves to their work.
Once she was done restructuring the company, Anastasia was looking at some documents in her office. Suddenly, she heard Grace’s voice coming from outside and judging from the lady’s intonation, she sounded like she was anxiously stopping someone.
“No, you can’t enter. President Tillman is working.”
Regardless of what, Grace still couldn’t stop the burly male manager with that petite figure of hers. Coincidentally, this male manager was one of those executives who had been transferred from his original position.
Feeling resigned, he pushed open the door and made his way across to Anastasia’s desk. “President Tillman, what’s the meaning of this?! I have been working in Bourgeois for 8 years. I’m pretty sure I could get some credit for my efforts, but how could you demote me just like that?!”
Observing the agitated male manager in front of her, Anastasia calmly stood up. She stared at Gordon Quigley, the male manager, with a piercing gaze and spoke, “Mr. Quigley, I must remind you that Bourgeois will not support idlers from now on. You can submit your resignation if you don’t wish to cooperate with this transfer decision. I’m more than happy to receive your resignation letter.”
“Anastasia, do you think you’re that great? You’re nothing but a mere designer who became lucky and able to climb to the top. Gordon sneered, after which he quickly added, “All in all, you successfully seduced a man like Elliot just because you have a pretty face. I’m telling you: I have already been holding the position of a manager even before you joined Bourgeois! How dare you demote me now!”
Likewise, Anastasia didn’t intend to pamper anyone in the company. Therefore, she said coldly, “I dare to because I’m the boss of Bourgeois! I have the right to make any decision!”
“Anastasia, you can transfer me to another position, but I’m not fine with a salary reduction. If you don’t implement it, I’ll go on a strike with all my men!” Since Gordon was previously the manager of Bourgeois, he had quite a number of subordinates under him.
“I dare you if you have this ability. We shall see if the evidence in my hand would send you to jail first, or your strike will come first.” After she finished speaking, she coldly recounted his charges. “Don’t think I don’t know what you have been up to! I have calculated the amount of money that you have illegally transferred out all these years! It’s at least more than 8 million, if not 10 million!”
When Gordon heard Anastasia’s words. the arrogance on his face instantly turned into panic. Even so, he still pretended to be calm as he said, “President Tillman, you should at least provide evidence if you want to convict me for such crimes.”
“Evidence? By the time I retrieve the evidence, that will also be the time when I’ll see you in court. Are you sure you want to get things to such an ugly extent?” Anastasia questioned him while crossing her arms in front of her chest.
Today, she wore a white blouse and a high-waist hip skirt. Dressing like this, she looked slender and mesmerizing while radiating a domineering aura at the same time.
“You should know that the team of lawyers under Presgrave Corporation won’t have mercy toward anyone in court.” Anastasia stared at Gordon coldly with her pair of beautiful orbs.
When he heard her words, the arrogance he had when he first entered was immediately suppressed. At this moment, he was scared out of his wits. Therefore, he quickly smiled and pleaded, “Please,
President Tillman. 1-1 accept this transfer
“On second thought, it’s better for you to resign!” She was unwilling to give him a chance to continue wasting time in the company.
Gordon was a man who had always been buoyant and impetuous. Therefore, he instantly clenched his hands into a fist when he heard Anastasia asking him to resign. Glaring at her angrily, he wanted to lash out. “You-”
However, before he could get the chance to do so, the door behind him opened. Immediately after, two bodyguards in suits speedily entered. As each bodyguard stood on the left and right side of Gordon, they gave him death glares as if to remind him not to go overboard.
Once again, he calmed down his rage. Then, he snorted. “Fine! I’ll resign.”
Once Gordon left, the bodyguards left Anastasia’s office and guarded the entrance to her office.
Later, Anastasia received an internal phone call. Reaching out, she answered the call. “Hello?”
“I heard that you’ve fired a few of the executives.” Elliot’s low voice came from the other end of the phone.
“Well, you know that I can’t let him continue to bleed Bourgeois dry. I won’t tolerate the existence of such a character in the company,” she explained. As she spoke, there was rather a resolute vibe in her tone.
“I’ll support whatever my wife does, but make sure to tell me first when you encounter danger next time.” Elliot reminded her. He had earlier received a SOS call from Grace. According to Grace, she said there was a male manager who barged into Anastasia’s office. Since Elliot was outside, he could only assign the bodyguards to protect her first.
Anastasia wasn’t psychologically scared of anyone unlike Elliot. Perhaps this had something to do with her toughening herself up since young. Hearing Elliot’s words, she smiled and uttered, “Sorry for making you worry.”
“The family’s safety always comes first in my heart.”
When she heard the serious tone in his voice, she also looked at this matter in a more serious manner. “I promise you that I’ll learn to protect myself.”
“Remember to ask Adriana to accompany you always,” Elliot exhorted.
Coincidentally, today was the day that Adriana was on leave. Thus, she wasn’t on Anastasia’s side. However, Anastasia decided to keep quiet about this after she sensed how worried Elliot was.
“Sure, got it. By the way, how are things at the financial summit?”
“I’ve met a few acquaintances earlier, so I’m probably going to be home a little late.”
Understanding the situation Elliot was in, Anastasia commented, “Sure! I’ll coax Jared to sleep first then.”
At this time, there was a knock on the door. Hence, she could only add, “Well then, I’ll hang up first. Bye!”
He hummed as a reply to her.
After hanging up the phone, Grace came in to deliver an urgent document. Due to the fact that Bourgeois had swiftly eliminated the ‘pests’ in just a day and cleaned up the vibe in the office, those who intended to dawdle became tense.
In the meantime, the financial summit was held inside a grandiose hall.
Standing in the center among a few of his foreign acquaintances, Elliot was discussing the future economical direction and development with them.
At this moment, a sexy figure gradually approached them. With the staff pass hanging around her neck and her alluring attire, Lorelai made her way toward Elliot with a smile on her face.
“Elliot, what a coincidence,” Lorelai greeted.
Looking at her, he nodded. “Lorelai.”
“Elliot, I heard that you’re going to meet the richest person from Dansbury. It just so happens that I’m fluent in the language spoken in Dansbury. Let me be your translator.” She shamelessly started promoting herself to him.
“That’s fine. My translator will be here soon.” Elliot didn’t wish to trouble her.
“Elliot, give me a chance to help you!” Lorelai started whining with crystal clear eyes.
However, he simply waved his hand. “Just go ahead with your business!” After that, he brought his assistant, Rey, and left.
Biting her rosy lips, Lorelai turned her and looked at Elliot’s straight and charming back silhouette. Instantly, she felt down and depressed. Could it be that Elliot doesn’t want to give me a chance to get close to him just because I’ve shown signs of seduction last time?
If he thinks I’ll stop, then he’s wrong. I’m not a person who would give up so easily! Since the day I was born, I know that I’m just a tool of interest that my Dad used to acquire
Presgrave Corporation. I have no way out, so I must endure the hardship and charge forward.
