"Leon, I gave you the ten percent dividends not just because you increased the efficiency of the raw materials and because you developed new products, but also because you managed to secure the cooperation of the Wick Group for the company! You deserve these rewards, you don't have to split them with anyone! As for Mister Wallace, all of the higher-ups in the company have their dividends based on their position and contributions."Once he assumes the position of the manager of the second factory, he'll be a company executive. Then, we'll naturally get some as well. You don't have to worry about him!" Iris said firmly.Most of the executives in the company only had one or two percent. Even Ashwin and Ariel only had eight percent and six percent respectively.Most of those people have been with Iris for over two years. All of them contributed to the company.If Stanley got five percent of the dividends simply for helping Leon a little, she would not know how to explain it to the othe
"Don't question things that don't concern you! Just do as you're told!" Guido said unhappily."I…" Stanley looked incredibly distraught. After that, he clenched his teeth and said, "Mister Boyd, I'm sorry, but I can't do something like that!"Guido had a cold look in his eyes, "You're not doing it?""Fine, then tidy up your things and get lost! You don't have to come to work anymore!""What? How could you do that?! Mister Boyd, I've been at the company for almost ten years, I…" Stanley was shocked. He wanted to say something but was interrupted by Guido before he could finish."Do what you're told or get lost! You can make the choice yourself!" Guido said coldly."But…""There are no buts!" "You should've seen the announcement from human resources, right? You've been helping Mister Wolf out the past few days. No matter what, you've put in a lot of work, yet you haven't gotten any rewards at all! Why would you lose your job for a shameless and petty man like that?!" Guido said
"Alright," Leon nodded. He trusted Stanley quite a bit, so he directly signed his name on the document.After that, the products were put into various trucks to be sent to the Wick Group.At the Wick Group, Jenson took out a few samples from the products after they received them and handed them to the company's r-and-d department for testing.Business was business, separate from personal relationships.Even though Jenson got along with Leon, it was still the first time the Elegante Group worked with the Wick Group. He needed to perform some testing to prevent anything from happening.Not too long later, the head of the r-and-d department brought a test report over with a look of disbelief on his face. "Mister Lloyd, how are the results? There shouldn't be any problems, right?" Jenson asked.He knew of Leon's moral character. With how upright Leon was, he did not think that there would be any problems with the Elegante Group's products.He was just doing the tests as a formal
From that, it was obvious how severe the problem was!"No, this problem is too serious! I need to give Mister Wolf a call right now!" Jenson looked severe as he hurriedly took out his phone to give Leon a call.At the factory, Leon was shocked after he received Jenson's call!He never would have dreamt that such a serious problem would have happened to the products!Not only that, the matter made huge waves within the company. Iris and the other executives were quickly mobilized.The Elegante Group's total assets only amounted to a few hundred thousand. Not only did seven million worth of product go to waste, but the Wick Group might even ask them for seventy million in compensation!It was the first time the company ever encountered such a serious problem!The dangers of the situation were obvious!Right after that, Iris immediately called for an emergency meeting at the headquarters, notifying Leon and Ariel as well as the factory manager, Guido, and the workshop manager, Sta
"Mister Mercer's right!""Mister Wolf has caused the company such tremendous losses. He needs to be terminated!""At the same time, we need to make sure to keep our right to pursue this in court!"The executives were all in a furious uproar."Leon, what do you have to say for yourself?!" Iris forced her anger down."I… have nothing to say. This is all my fault, and I'm willing to bear with any punishment…" Leon said bitterly.He could still not understand how an illegal substance somehow appeared in the product. He did not know if it was due to his own mistakes or any other reasons.However, he knew something very well. This time, he was in charge of the production, so it was hard for him to avoid any responsibility!That was not the critical part. The most important part was that he felt like he betrayed Iris's expectations. He regretted it deeply, and could not face Iris.All he could do was muster up the courage to take responsibility like a man so Iris would not get angrie
"Miss Young, I know that isobutylparaben is an illegal substance, but since Mister Wolf developed the new cosmetics, he's been completely in charge of the production. Furthermore, everything in the production line was strictly done following his wishes. I had no right to interfere. Furthermore, I gave the document over to Mister Wolf before the products were sent out. He signed off on it," Guido took out the document for everyone to see, and they quickly saw that Leon signed it."Mister Wolf, the proof is right there! The workers on the production line were all working under your orders. They added isobutylparaben under your mistaken instructions! What do you have to say about that?!" Ashwin said with a cold smile.Before Leon could even respond, Ariel stood up and said, "Mister Mercer, before the matter has been investigated, you don't have to be so quick to pin the blame on Leon!"Saying that Ariel shot a sharp look at Stanley, "Mister Wallace, you're the workshop manager overseei
"Ariel, could you be mistaken?" Leon said with uncertainty.After working together for a few days, Leon trusted Stanley quite a bit.However, thinking about how Stanley looked over the documents before Leon signed them, Leon started to be a little unsure.After all, it was suspicious that Stanley did not notice any problems with his skills."Miss Summers, this has nothing to do with me. I'm innocent," Stanley never expected that Ariel would point right at him. He started to panic a little as his palms started to sweat anxiously."You know yourself if you're innocent! As the manager of the workshop, how could you not notice anything at all faces such huge problems in production?! Similarly, if anyone wanted to harm Leon, they would need your help. Otherwise, there's no way it would escape your eyes! In other words, even if you weren't the one sabotaging Leon, you know the details!" Ariel sneered."I-I didn't…" Stanley paled, already in complete panic.He was never a good liar nor
"And what did you do? Did you feed your heart to the dogs?!" Ariel got angrier as she spoke, voicing out the injustice for Leon."What? He recommended me, and wanted to share the rewards with me? H-how is that possible!?" Stanley was shocked. He looked like he was struck by lightning as he stood in place."There's nothing impossible about it! If you don't believe me, you can ask Miss Young!" Ariel said coldly.Iris nodded, "Miss Summers is right! Both she and Leon said that you were quite capable. I considered that Mister Lennon from the second factory was retiring in a month, and planned on having you take over his position as the factory manager!"As for the Leon wanting to give you half the dividends, it's true as well. It's just that the dividends aren't something to be played around with, so I didn't agree to it!" "That…" Stanley was stunned.He thought that Leon took all the glory for himself. Yet, he never expected that he misunderstood Leon!Not only did Leon not do any
