Chapter 198 Susan Is Back
Susan was Seth's youngest sister.
She was now fifty-five years old.
She was elegant and kind in temperament.
"Who are you going to fire?" After the black suit bodyguard opened the door, Susan asked, "Tell me,
Melvin, what mistakes did these people make? Why would you, an M-level manager, fire them
personally?"
The moment Melvin saw Susan, his expression froze on the spot.
He thought in shock, "Hasn't she been undergoing chemotherapy for her intracerebral tumor that
cannot be removed? She is blind in one eye, and I have even heard that she is dying. At that time, I
was thinking about how to divide her shares if she died. After all, she owns nearly 20% of the entire
group's shares alone, which gives her an absolute say in many decisions.
It has not been a long time, has it?
Why would she suddenly appear here and look so healthy?
Has the tumor in her head already been removed?
Is it not that no doctor dares to operate on her?
Can it be that she's just feeling a little better before her death? Or that she wants to die in her
homeland?"
Melvin was dumbfounded for a long time before asking, "Is your tumor gone? Shouldn't you be
undergoing chemotherapy?"
Susan smiled lightly and said, "It sounds like you are not hoping for me to get better."
At that moment, Natalie had already stood up and obediently said, "Susan, please sit down here." Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Susan sat down in a chair and patted Natalie's hand. "Don't be afraid. If there are any problems, we will
solve them one by one."
After saying that, she glanced at everyone's faces. "I was unable to handle many things due to my
illness, which led to a decline in business. It was my fault, and I am sorry. Fortunately, with the
combined efforts of everyone in the fourth quarter, we achieved our annual goal. This time, I came back
from Audale specifically to thank my colleagues in the fashion and beauty line for their hard work."
After that, she specifically added, "No one can deny your achievements!"
People in the fashion department, who had been crestfallen after Melvin's criticism, suddenly had a
cheerful look on their faces, almost cheering and jumping.
They thought coincidentally, "In the fight within the senior management, we ordinary people are always
the ones who suffer a lot.
In the morning, as soon as I arrived at the company, I was called into a meeting by the human
resources manager. I was even criticized by Melvin, who has nothing to do with our department. How
ridiculous!
No wonder Ms. Quinn didn't panic at all when she just came in.
It turns out that she has someone backing her up!"
Susan's gaze fell on Melvin, and in front of so many people, she bluntly criticized him, "You caused
such a big mess in the financial business, which almost broke the group's capital chain. Therefore, you
should repent and try your best to solve the problem, instead of making trouble again at such a critical
moment and causing disharmony within the group."
The sedimentation of time had made her elegant and gentle, but she was still a member of the Ramsey
family.
Gentleness and courtesy were just out of her cultivation.
Melvin, however, was shameless. Even now, he still cheekily said, "The plan to reduce the budget of
the fashion department was proposed by Kendrick. He is busy dealing with the financial crisis now, and
I just want to lighten his burden."
Three months ago, the fashion department was in a mess.
As a result, there was no problem with streamlining the budget and reducing expenses.
Later, Seth put Natalie in this department to train her, so Kendrick took the opportunity to postpone the
proposal. Otherwise, the budget and manpower would be reduced, and Natalie would be unable to do
anything. In that case, she would not have been able to sign those anchors and beauty bloggers to
promote the brands, nor would she have had so many colleagues to help her.
Natalie had just learned about this.
She finally understood why Seth would say that Kendrick had been pampering her with no bottom line
or principles.
Susan instructed in an earnest tone, "Everything should be treated dialectically. The plan to cut the
budget was proposed three months ago, and now things are different. Now, all the brands have
exceeded their annual sales figures, and the entire department is also turning losses into profits. I will
reconvene a board meeting to draw up a strategic plan for next year. You are welcome to attend the
class.
"And, I want to know how the chairman allocated businesses. Why would you interfere in the business
of the fashion department that has nothing to do with you? It seems that a new board meeting must be
held as soon as possible to avoid anyone from being unable to distinguish his own rank and
responsibilities."
Her tone was gentle, but her attitude was clearly overbearing.
The implication was that Melvin had no right to interfere in her business.
Susan liked Kendrick because he had a great sense of propriety.
"Get out. I don't want to see you here!"
Susan, who had maintained her elegant image, waved her hand impatiently at Melvin as she finished
speaking.
The next moment, a lot of more than 6.5-foot-tall bodyguards with sunglasses and earphones rushed
in, and they all stared at Melvin, which frightened him to get up from his chair in trepidation.
Before leaving, Melvin gave Natalie a fierce look.
...
The criticism meeting suddenly became a commendation meeting.
Susan came back specifically to celebrate the achievements of Natalie's team and praise them for their
outstanding performance.
After the meeting, the two were left alone in the conference room.
Susan looked at her kindly and said, "The business is settled, so let's talk about something personal.
Good girl, you saved my life."
Life and death were foreordained.
Therefore, Susan had already let it go.
Unexpectedly, a miracle had actually happened to her.
"Just tell me what you want to do, and I will do my best to help you."
Hearing that, Natalie thought, "Well, I do have something I want to do.
I want to work at Ramsey Biomedicine.
I want to engage in medical research and development.
I will not be able to enter the operating room in the following six months, and production of the GM-1
has been suspended globally. Therefore, why not take this opportunity to participate in medical
research and development at Ramsey Biomedicine, where I most want to go?
Kendrick still has a long way to go to fully recover, and the suspension of the GM-1 will definitely delay
his subsequent treatment. As a result, I need to develop and produce new drugs for him as soon as
possible.
Besides, as one who has read so much, I naturally have a lofty ideal.
I want to devote myself to the healthy development of human life."
Natalie confided her thoughts to Susan, who was instantly stunned.
She hadn't expected Natalie to make such a request, which was not for her own benefit. After all,
Ramsey Biomedicine was also in loss-making, with hundreds of millions invested in research and
development every year but nothing in return.
Susan couldn't help but exclaim, "Nat, you really surprised me. I can't judge you with ordinary thinking.
It's hard to imagine that you chose such a difficult and challenging project. I admire your courage."
Hearing that, Natalie thought, "Actually, it's not that difficult.
Compared to being asked to have a child immediately, to maintain a good family relationship, and to
see people clearly, it's much simpler."
Susan agreed to her request and suddenly remembered something else. She said in her heart, "Natalie
has a heart issue, and my surgery was complicated and time-consuming, requiring extremely high
physical fitness.
So in fact, it was extremely dangerous for her."
Susan, who had been through many ups and downs, was quite moved at the moment. She couldn't
help but hug Natalie and thank her again for what she had done.
Natalie patted her back and said, "You are the person in this family who loves Kendrick the most and
cares very much about him as he grows up. Therefore, we both hope that you can be safe and
healthy."
"This girl is really much more mature and cleverer than her peers," Susan couldn't help but think.
Then she also comforted Natalie, "Good girl, you must also take good care of yourself. You are still
young, and there is a long way to go in the future!"
Speaking of this, she asked, "Did Kendrick know that your flight to Audale was to perform surgery on
me?"
Natalie shook her head.
She had not yet told him that.
"You didn't tell him?"
