Chapter
But I’ve always believed in doing things with my own ability. Even when I was at the Dolton Group with the “future boss’s wife”bel, I never acted like a decorative piece.
By the end of the week, I had reviewed all the marketing clients’ information and thepany’s resources. I had also familiarized myself with the work performance of every marketing employee, especially their results from the past six
months.
I reorganized the division and implemented a system of rewards and punishments.
They say that new managers often start with a fiery enthusiasm to prove themselves, and while I wasn’t just trying to show off, I did want to push the team to work harder, not to let themselves or thepany down. And of course, I owed it to Bryson for keeping me on despite Alvin’s pressure.
But just as I was feeling confident and ready to shine, I received a troubling report from my marketing staff. Every single one of the clients they were handling had requested to cancel their contracts. Even the ones that had seemed promising just days ago were now backing out, making all kinds of excuses.
I knew it had to be Alvin’s doing.
He hadn’t been able to pressure thepany sessfully, so now he was using underhanded tactics to try to sabotage me by stealing clients.
This mess was my responsibility, so I reported it to Bryson. He smiled and said, “Don’t worry about it. If Alvin can take those clients, then they clearly weren’t meant to be ours. We’ll just find new ones.”
I was taken aback by his calm and nonchnt attitude. I showed him the reports, which clearly showed that Alvin had taken 80% of our clients.
Bryson’s smile never faltered. “It’s fine. As long as he doesn’t take you, I believe that any clients we lose, you’ll be able to win back.”
His trust in me was more than surprising. I couldn’t help but feel that he had an unusually high level of confidence in me.
“Mr. Skinner, won’t you report this to the president?” I asked, and then quickly added, “I don’t mean to interfere, but I’m worried that losing so many clients without reporting it could make things difficult for you.”
Bryson smiled again, his expression a little mysterious. “I finally understand…”
He paused for a moment, then continued, “Finally understand why Mr. Dolton was so reluctant to let you leave.”
Was that really what he wanted to say?
Bryson then added, “As for the problem you’re worried about… I’ve already reported it. From the moment Alvin interfered with your hiring, the higher-ups knew about it. These events were all expected. So don’t worry too much. Everything is under control.”
In other words, I was overthinking.
With that, I had no more questions to ask. I lowered my head slightly. “I just didn’t want to be the one who caused trouble for thepany.”
Bryson waved it off. “You won’t cause any trouble. Don’t worry, go ahead and cause as much trouble as you want.”
Wait, what?
He shed a wide grin at me, showing off his white teeth. “What I mean is, we trust your abilities. You’ll never let thepany down.”
I couldn’t help but crack a small smile. “I’m not a miracle worker.”
“Of course not. But you are like a goddess,” Bryson teased, giving me a yful wink.
I had no words.
Although thepany wasn’t putting any pressure on me, theck of pressure made me more frustrated.
I never thought Alvin would be so childish-putting his own selfish interests ahead of thepany’s, treating the business like a game, and even jeopardizing thepany’s development.
From what I’d learned about Bixing since joining, I knew it wasn’t apany with a strong reputation yet, but its strength and professionalism were definitely top-tier in the industry.
If thepany had more talent like Josh, it could easily soar to the top.
So I couldn’t let Alvin ruin it. I wouldn’t let a greatpany suffer or be theughingstock of the industry because of a petty, selfish person.
I needed to stop Alvin, and the only person who could help was his father, Peter. But this wasn’t something I could discuss over the phone. I had to meet him in person.
So, I was headed straight for the Dolton family.
