The office was a little crowded. It was not that spacious, and there were not too many people."Alright, is everyone here?" Henry asked.Unfortunately, nobody responded.Henry did not feel embarrassed at all. He calmly said, "If no one denies it, then everyone's here. Next, each of you will introduce yourself so I can get to know you."Since you're the one I find most pleasing to the eye, let's start with you." Henry pointed to Lora on the left.Lora was slightly surprised and dissatisfied with his words. She muttered to herself about him being a pervert and then exclaimed, "I'm Lora Stein!""Is that all?""Yes!" Lora replied coldly."Next!" Henry did not mind it.Everyone followed suit, introducing themselves only by name and saying nothing else. Clay, in particular, demonstrated a complete lack of respect by looking away purposefully while saying his name.Herman felt uncomfortable as he watched everyone ignore Henry but did not know how to handle the situation."Okay, I'v
Clay laughed loudly."Do you even understand what you're saying? Do you know how much monthly sales revenue I generate for the company?" Clay said.If he made serious mistakes, the company might fire him. However, Clay had only refuted an insignificant team leader; it made no sense to fire him like that. Even if he lacked a strong background, he would not be fired.Henry shook his head and said quietly, "I don't need to know that. I just know that you will not listen to me, so you can leave.""I will not leave. What can you do to me?" Clay sneered, not bothering to mention his connections."Let's talk about some of your previous achievements. On 15th October last year, you sold our goods to Sunnex at the lowest price, earning a kickback of 45,000 dollars."On 10th December, you... And today, 5th March, at the Redhill Hotel, Melinda and you...""Shut up! Have you any evidence?" Clay roared in shock and rage. He was especially shocked by the incident at the hotel with Melinda. It
Lora stayed silent. She was obviously intimidated."Good. Let me state my rules then," Henry said calmly."First and foremost, even though I'm your team leader, I don't have the time to manage all of you. So, from now on, Herman will manage you on my behalf."His orders are mine. Is that clear?"Herman was taken aback, his mouth slightly open as if he wanted to say something. However, Henry interrupted him, saying, "You know about sales; just relax and do it. I have your back.""Yes, Mr. Truman, I'll do my best," Herman responded firmly, despite his timid personality preventing him from gaining work experience."Good. Any objections?""No!" The others nodded obediently despite their clear objections.Many of them knew Herman was a failure in sales—having him manage the team was pure chaos.Henry's arrogance was astounding. It was as if he did not respect the company's management at all. If that reached higher management, he would undoubtedly be in trouble. However, it was for
Everyone was stunned and could not believe what they heard."Are you joking, Mr. Truman?" Carol asked.The others stared at Henry with disbelief. After all, as a team leader, the sales commission was quite substantial, especially since the team leader also served as a manager.The sales team was divided into two groups to compete for higher sales. Would Henry rely solely on his basic salary, without commissions?"What do you think? I'm a man of my word," Henry spoke calmly."What about your salary?""I don't care about that little money!""But this bonus will be distributed evenly to everyone!""Evenly distributed?"Carol was taken aback because it seemed so unreasonable. Carol believed a competition based on individual performance would motivate everyone to work harder and sell more."That's right. I realize some of you may not understand. But, as a team, we should help each other and strive for increased sales. Your commissions are based on your abilities, but the bonus I g
Whether it was Henry's unexpected rules or his investigation into Clay, everything shocked Hilda. She believed she could never do the same thing.Hilda returned to the office and discussed the subject with Lydia again. She wondered if Lydia had investigated Clay and managed the incident remotely.Lydia appeared puzzled because she, too, was unaware of Clay's situation. Henry had devised so many unexpected rules that even she thought they were brilliant. The man had completely dominated the team and convinced everyone.It was time to see his actual performance.Hilda could not help but admire Henry because she knew it was all his doing."Is Henry your secret weapon to deal with someone, Ms. Miller?" Hilda asked.Lydia was startled for a moment before chuckling. "What was that? I simply wanted to help Henry find a way out so he wouldn't go hungry. Don't think too much about it."However, Henry's actions in such a short period had greatly impressed her. She wondered if Henry had re
Henry did not provide a direct response but instead posed a question. "Would you believe me if I told you I've investigated everyone in the company?""What do you think?" Lydia gave Henry a disapproving look."Alright, cut the nonsense and tell me seriously," Lydia said."Um..."It's just a coincidence; I have a friend who knows a little about him. So, when I was about to join the team, I used that information." Henry had to come up with another reason."I see. I have to say—you're extremely lucky. You always seem to meet benefactors who will help you," Lydia said"Yeah, but you're my biggest benefactor. If it hadn't been for you, I wouldn't have joined the company, let alone lived so comfortably," Henry said jokingly.However, Lydia thought he was serious; she snorted coldly. "It's good you're aware of it. Work well in the company for me, and don't cause problems.""I won't.""That's good. Since you're probably free now, why don't you drop me off at home?" Lydia said."Huh,
"What do you mean? It's about finding you a good match. Don't you realize how outstanding Mr. Walker is? If this useless guy ruins it, you will definitely regret it," Jennifer said angrily.So it was about finding a match; no wonder she was so eager to get rid of Henry. Lydia blamed her mother for the situation, saying, "Who asked you to find me a match, Mom? Didn't I tell you I'm not considering it right now?""Do you realize how old you are? You'll be 30 in a few years," Jennifer said angrily."I don't care; you need to take this seriously. Otherwise, I'll die in front of you. Rest assured, Mr. Walker is exceptional.""Let's talk inside." Lydia sighed helplessly.Jennifer could not stop Henry from going inside. She could only say in hushed tones, "I'm warning you, Henry. When you're inside, introduce yourself as Lydia's bodyguard. Otherwise, don't blame me for being harsh."Henry smiled faintly and asked, "When have you ever been nice to me?"Then, he entered the house. He did
Jennifer observed Lydia and Simon chatting. She was very excited. She quickly pulled Henry away from them as he was about to approach them.Jennifer held Henry tightly; it would be inconvenient for him to break free of her hold. It would be hilarious if he struggled and she fell to the ground. Given Jennifer's stubborn nature, she might actually do it."Henry, can't you see that Mr. Walker, an outstanding and talented individual, is the best husband candidate for Lydia? You're not worthy of her," Jennifer said coldly.Henry was not angry. He spoke calmly, "You told me the same thing about Lewis just over a month ago. Where's Lewis now?"Jennifer was furious at what he said and responded angrily, "Lewis was too good at disguising himself. Otherwise, I would've seen through him long ago.""How do you know, then, that Mr. Walker isn't a fake?" Henry asked. If he recalled correctly, the Walkers were not a reputable family."Of course, he isn't. Mr. Walker looks honest and genuine. He
