Jordan served as the head of the finance department at Graham Group and was one of Bill's loyal subordinates. Much like Logan, he often flattered her brainless father. Though he was in his 40s and nearing the age of 50, he appeared to be in his 30s, a testament to his remarkable self-care."Mr. Cooper, why are you being distant? I need your help since I've just taken over the company, and I'm still getting to know it. As you saw in yesterday's meeting, many people don't seem to like me. What should I do?" Angela was concise and straightforward.Having figured out Angela's intentions, Jordan smirked, feeling secretly pleased."Ms. Graham, you think too highly of me. Just yesterday, you flaunted your authority the moment you arrived at the company. I'm sure nobody dares to challenge you now." His tone was neutral and light in a way that could make people feel uneasy.Angela chuckled and asked, "So what's your stance on this? We're both open-minded, so there's no reason to dance aroun

On the surface, everyone seemed fair and just. However, deep down, they had already chosen their sides. They were fully aware of which leader to support in order to secure a brighter future.At this moment, Andrew cleared his throat gently and addressed the group, saying, "Now that everyone can vote, it's important to take this responsibility seriously. It's for the company's sake and your own future."That was simply a blatant warning. Then, he turned to Angela. "Do you have anything to say?"Angela replied, "What else is there to say? What employees truly want is to be happy at work and earn good money. As a leader, we should just focus on improving the company's operations and enhancing employee benefits."She had a casual attitude as if she believed nothing happening around her could change anyone's fate.Andrew sneered inwardly. She was skilled at offering sweet words, but she had only been in the company for a few days; no one would genuinely believe in her or choose to foll

Clearly, Angela and Clara appeared to be partners who had collaborated happily for a long time.Andrew waved his hand and said, "I don't agree! What gives you the right to act like the king and be in charge alone?""I'm the CEO, Mr. Graham. I didn't mean to argue with you about your son receiving a salary without making any meaningful contributions to the company, but I need to clarify. This department was created to prevent issues like yours. "The company is for everyone, but it isn't a free-for-all. If everyone conducts themselves appropriately, there's no problem. However, if someone misbehaves, I won't hesitate to enforce rules."At that moment, Angela was sharp and stern, commanding respect from others effortlessly."Ms. Graham is a progressive leader, and I believe she'll help our company improve.""Exactly. Our company needs young, capable leaders like Ms. Graham.""We just need to follow Ms. Graham and do our jobs well."Everyone there understood that adapting one's at

Angela and Clara occasionally secretly visited each floor of the company building to observe which departments were operating with the least concerns. In a short span of time, Angela accomplished a lot, the most important of which was developing a comprehensive understanding of the company's operations.Yet, there was troubling news. Andrew had been hospitalized once more. His supporters had been swayed by Angela, and despite his best efforts to change their minds, he had been unsuccessful. This stress had exacerbated his condition, landing him in the hospital. This time, Angela wasn't involved and had no plans to visit him.Dexter hadn't brought up Zayn's engagement in the last few days, leading Angela to believe he had forgotten about it. She decided to take the opportunity to enjoy a leisurely Saturday, intending to sleep until she woke up in her own time. She spent the majority of the day at home, engrossed in her favorite series. It turned out to be one of the most rejuve

"Ms. Spencer, you're flattering me," Angela replied calmly, though she felt a bit surprised.She wasn't sure if she was imagining things, but it seemed like Mia was paying extra attention to her. Ever since Mia had arrived, her eyes had been on Angela."I'm not. I heard you just inherited your family's business, and that's truly impressive." Mia praised again, her voice ringing out so that everyone nearby could hear.If she wanted to connect with Angela, she could have been more subtle. Angela wondered why Mia didn't choose Bella, who was standing next to her. She suppressed her suspicion and quickly changed the subject.After the newly engaged couple had moved on to toast elsewhere, Bella turned to Angela. "Did you two know each other before? It seems like she's quite interested in you.""No, we haven't met before," Angela replied, feeling confused as well.She found the party long and boring, so she told Dexter and escaped to the back garden. She found a secluded spot next to
