"I mean, if you don't make more money, how can you afford to buy me such expensive skirts and
heels?" Violette put on her slippers, walked up to him, and added, "I've never worn anything this pricey
before I grew up."
Elijah said, "That's just sad."
He said that and got into the elevator.
She stared in disbelief as the elevator doors closed.
She actually had more to say.
She wanted to tell him he was too extravagant and wasteful.
Back in her room, she took off the custom-made dress and went into the bathroom to turn on the
shower.
Warm water poured down from above.
All her senses became dull and blurred.
The next day,
Violette came to the Dennis Group early in the morning.
At 10 am, the conference room was packed.
"Good morning, everyone. I'm Violette, and I called this meeting because I was kidnapped last night."
Violette's gaze swept over everyone's faces.
"Really? Violette, are you okay?" someone asked in surprise.
"I'm fine. I gathered everyone here today to have an honest talk," Violette said slowly, "Our company is
in a terrible state, and the investors don't think our projects are worth much, so they only want to buy us
out at a low price. Our company's debt is high, and the acquisition price might only cover the debt."
"Our SuperBrain System, which our company has developed, can actually be released! All we need to
do is hold a press conference and show them how powerful our new system is, and we'll definitely find
investors!"
Someone suggested.
Others chimed in.
"First, my dad doesn't want to sell the company, as I'm sure you all know. Second, the new system isn't
really finished yet. It's probably not as valuable as you all think."
"What should we do then? Let the company go bankrupt?"
"If there's no capital injection, I'm afraid that's the only option," Violette said.
Reaves couldn't stand it any longer and slammed the table, yelling, "Violette! You just want to swallow
the SuperBrain System all by yourself! It's not like your dad developed it alone!"
Violette looked coldly at Reaves, "Uncle Reaves, since you keep emphasizing that my dad didn't
develop the system alone, why don't you take the development team and replicate the SuperBrain
System? When it's done, you can sell it or use it to start a new company, and I won't object!"
Reaves' face turned red at Violette's words.
Blake was the chief engineer, and without him, the new system couldn't be developed.
"You say everything is for your dad, but you secretly give your dad's stuff to outsiders..."
Violette: "So, were you the one who kidnapped me yesterday, Uncle Reaves?" NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
Reaves' eyes widened.
"If you're staying in the company for big rewards, I suggest you look elsewhere. The company's debts
are not yet paid off, how can there be any profits to share with you?" Violette said, looking at the others,
"Those who share Reaves' thoughts, you can go settle your salary today."
Reaves and two core members of the R&D department left the conference room.
"Who would've thought that Violette is so fierce? She looks so gentle."
"She said she gave the stuff to Kaleb... I don't think so! Maybe she still has it!"
"Let's find a way to test Kaleb first!"
At noon,
Violette left the company and went to meet her bestie Odette.
They agreed to meet at a restaurant.
"Violette, you're so hard to get a hold of these days! Just count how many times I've tried to make plans
with you!" Odette complained, "Your dad's company is having a hard time with financing, huh?"
