Chapter 449
Frank was wearing casual clothes and black sunglasses. He walked straight to the private elevator with his hat in his pocket.
His sheer legs strode forward, his eyes filled with indifference. He did not even glance at the security guard.
In the elite upstairs office, Mr. and Mrs. Roberts were having lunch. Frank had called them before he came. The secretary had also prepared food for Frank.
Seeing his son push the door open and enter, William greeted him warmly. This was the first time his son came to the company to eat with them. “Frank, you came here because you smelled the fragrance. We just opened it and you came in. Your timing is quite accurate.”
Grace ate slowly. She was not in a hurry to ask her son what was going on. He would not visit without a reason. There must be a reason for his sudden arrival. She said calmly, “Let’s finish eating first.”
Frank took off his sunglasses and hung them on the collar of his shirt. He took the fork that William passed him, sat down, and started eating. Frank was always serious when it came to eating.
William asked, “Ava went to play?”
“She went to the hospital to look for Rose and the others to eat,” Frank answered after taking a bite of food.
“Yes, she should indeed get together with others. She can’t always follow you. There are only men at the docks. It’s quite boring for a girl to follow you every day.”
When Grace was almost done eating, she put down the fork. She did not speak and waited for Frank to finish eating. She took a tissue and wiped her lips.
Frank ate very quickly and finished a plate of food in no time. He got up to pour some water and took a cup. He walked to the sofa with the glass of water and went straight to the point. “I plan to take over the company. You arrange it.”
This was directed at William.
This sudden surprise shocked William so much that his jaw almost dropped. Hadn’t he just been rejected a few days ago? Didn’t he say that it would take a few more years? Grace had already given him a preventive shot and told him to work properly. Now, his son had suddenly changed his mind.
William, who was easily triggered by family matters but calm at work, could not remain calm anymore. His voice was a little cracked. He was really surprised and caught off guard. “Didn’t you say that it had to be after you get married? Did something happen?”
Grace did not tell William about the interrogation of his employees. Grace would never trouble her husband for such a small matter that she could easily handle.
Obviously, Grace had roughly guessed the reason. Thinking back on what had happened in the past few days, nothing could change her son’s mind. The only thing was that her future daughter-in-law was being discussed, she said affirmatively, “Because of Ava.”
Frank sat down and drank the water in the glass in one gulp. “Yes and no.”
He just wanted to be able to support the company before Ava’s graduation and give her a sense of security. She did not need to work so hard or worry so much.
William sensed that in the conversation between the mother and son, there was something that he did not know. “What do you mean? Did something happen to Ava? Was she bullied in the company?”
Coupled with his son asking for the company’s surveillance footage a few days ago, William guessed that there was dissatisfaction and anger in his eyes because someone had actually bullied his daughter-in-law in the company.
Grace replied calmly, “The matter has been resolved. They have been fired. Be it the Roberts Group, the Wilson Group, or the Blackwell Group, inclusive of the subsidiaries under them, will not hire them. It can be considered a punishment for their actions.”
Only the Landor Group was left. William thought to himself that if Edward dared to accept anyone who bullied his daughter-in-law, he would teach him a lesson in the future.
Grace asked, “Where are you going to start taking over, and how are you going to start getting familiar with it?”
If he wanted to completely take over Roberts Group, he had to be familiar with the operations of each department. He wanted to be familiar with it; he had to experience it personally.
It was way unrealistic to talk about it on paper. Practice was more important than theory. This was a view that Grace had always agreed with.
She had always insisted on simulating experiences from practice. One could learn the theories and basics of knowledge, but they could not completely explain everything about the work.
There was always something that would be overlooked.
Just like when Rose was playing cards. When she said it, she thought that she knew how to play, but as soon as the actual game started and played randomly, she had no clue at all.
Frank took off his glasses and wiped them as if he had already made a decision. In fact, he had already made a decision. “I’ll go to the technology company during the summer break.”
Hearing this, Grace was stunned for a moment, then smiled. Her son wanted to clear Ava’s name and prove that she was not useless. He needed to crush many people with technology. He was planning to use the old people in the company to make a comeback for his future wife.
Once Ava’s performance in the technology company was outstanding, it was more direct than any explanation they could give. Skilled people never explained with their mouths. They would always use their own strength to slap the faces of others.
The technology company and jewelry company under the Roberts Group were all in the same building. The technology company was on the sixth floor, and the jewelry company was on the eighth floor.Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
Grace was silent for a few seconds thinking about the question. “Have you asked Ava? Are you planning to take her for an internship?”
“I’ve thought about it.” The young lady would agree. If he said that there was anything he couldn’t handle, she would definitely be happy to help. Besides, computers were her forte.
In a short period of time, the young lady had already set up an online platform to earn money and bought him a watch.
The sharp-eyed William saw that the watch on his son’s hand had changed. The previous watch was given to him by Grace and was brought back from overseas. Rose had the low-profile watch, and his son had the high-profile one.
It was inappropriate for Rose to wear a watch worth tens of millions at the hospital. In order to accommodate Grace, the watch he bought for his daughter was only about 100 thousand dollars. It was also to hide the wealth.
“You changed your watch. Didn’t Grace buy you a limited edition watch?”
Speaking of watches, Frank raised his hand in satisfaction and looked at the shiny watch on his hand. The pale blue dial was like an ocean. The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he was very proud. “Baby Ava bought it. She earned the money herself.”
He answered all the questions William wanted to ask.
In the end, out of curiosity, William asked his son how Ava made the money. Frank told Mr. and Mrs. Roberts about how Ava made money on the platform. Grace’s eyes lit up. She liked this girl more and more.
William was the same. He kept nodding in satisfaction.
The two girls were waiting for the interview in the HR department. They had been running for the entire day and their legs were about to break. In the end, all the large companies rejected their offers for the same reason. "Sorry, our company has no consideration about hiring administrative personnel for the time being."
They thought that with their experience working at the Roberts Group, they would be easily hired by other companies. Who knew that they would be repeatedly thwarted and rejected?
If they weren’t hiring, then why were there job openings on the webpage? Why did they inform them to try? Are they fooling us?
The more the two fired employees thought about it, the angrier they became.
Just as they were feeling disappointed, they found out online that the Landor Group was hiring customer service personnel. This recruit was a pleasant surprise for them. They immediately logged into their accounts and submitted their resumes. Not long after, they received a call from the Landor Group, asking them to go for an interview.
When Edward and Kyle passed by the HR department, they saw two girls attending an interview. The glass door was covered with frosted paper. They could not see everything, but they could vaguely see humans.
Whether it was Edward or Kyle, they had never cared about the HR department’s interviews. As for the hiring framework, the HR department just had to follow it. As for whether the recruited person could stay, they could tell from the trial period.
Back in Edward's office, the phone rang. It was Devon.
The name on the screen kept shining with no intention of hanging up. Edward narrowed his eyes and picked up the phone.
A few seconds later, he swiped the answer button. “Hello?”
Edward placed one hand on the desk and answered the phone with the other. He sat on the desk with health insurance leading against the wall.
Devon explained the situation briefly.
Edward listened to the explanation. His face turned serious. “I see.”
The matter was resolved soon.
After the incident, Edward immediately called Trevon and Rose to the office.
Even Rose of Contents belong
The two people who were fired from the company were not to be hired again in the future. They needed to replace such people in the company.
The only one left in the company was Ava. When he was about to leave, she was the only one he heard. He picked up the phone in total anger to call her over.
