It was proved that Stella’s guess was correct.
That afternoon, Logan came to her again and even brought a letter of commitment from all senior executives of
the Steward Group who were still on the job.
As long as Stella agreed to take over the Steward Group, these senior executives and all employees of the Steward
Group would do their best to cooperate with her.
Seeing Stella looking at the letter of commitment and did not say a word, Logan said, “Ms. Radomil, the Steward
Group may seem like a hot potato to you but it was once a famous existence in City N. Now, it has become like this,
it is really…”
Stella put down the letter of commitment and spoke indifferently, “If I go to the Steward Group, can you all fulfil the
commitment on this.”
“That is for sure. Several senior executives have signed this.” Lucas continued, “Besides, Ms. Radomil, the person
who has the highest position in the Steward Group is Mr. Bernard. He also personally came to see Ms. Radomil
yesterday so he absolutely won’t go back on his word.”
Stella said, “I can go to the Steward Group but you guys have to comply with my requests.”
Logan said, “Please say so, Ms. Radomil.”
“First, I want the salaries of all the employees who are currently working at the Steward Group to be given to them
now immediately. Those who previously resigned after the accident of the Steward Group must also be paid with
the salary amount that they should’ve obtained.”
Logan hesitated and said, “But the Steward Group currently has no money. There is a lot of deficit, not to mention
giving salaries to employees.”
Stella said, “Aren’t there still a few senior executives in the Steward Group? Since they’re willing to let me take over
the Steward Group, it means that everyone still has hope for the Steward Group. As long as we can get through this
difficult time together, the money that is earned afterwards will certainly be given to them. What I’ve said is
correct, right?”
Logan’s smile stiffened for a moment, “You’re right, Ms. Radomil.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“I know that a huge amount of money is needed for both project and program and they can’t give so much money
within a short time. However, they should be able to make up the employees’ salaries. This shouldn’t be a too
difficult thing for them.”
Logan nodded, “I’ll convey this to Mr. Bernard.”
As he said, he continued, “Ms. Radomil…do you have any other requests.”
Stella said, “Yes. Second, please give me the information of the few senior executives who were sacked when the
Steward Group encountered the problem.”
“What Ms. Radomil means is…”
Stella smiled, “I’ll tell you after I finish reading the information.”
In fact, the Steward Group was such a big group and not everyone was so good at scheming like Lyndon and not
everyone abused the power to bully others like Armand. There were people who worked hard either.
When the Steward Group encountered that problem, those few senior executives who were utilised as a shield were
certainly not those who wallowed in the mire with Armand.
So, if one wanted to save the Steward Group, the only way was to rehire the few senior executives of the Steward
Group who worked seriously.
Only then there might be hope.
Stella’s second request was much less difficult than the first one. Logan nodded immediately and agreed, “I’ll send
it to Ms. Radomil tonight.”
“Okay.” Stella continued, “As for the third request, you just said that the person who has the highest position in the
Steward Group now is Mr. Bernard, right?”
“Yes.”
Stella said, “My third request is that after I go to the Steward Group, my position must be the highest. Even Mr.
Bernard also has to listen to my order.”
Logan hesitated again, “This…”
Stella gave him the letter of commitment, “It’s okay. I know you can’t make the decision. You can go back and
discuss these with them and then give me an answer.”
Logan kept silent for a moment and said, “Is it that as long as we comply with all these three requests of Ms.
Radomil, you will go to the Steward Group.”
“Of course.”
“Then please wait for a moment, Ms. Radomil. I’ll go and discuss with Mr. Bernard now.”
Logan left immediately after finishing his words.
Once he got in the car, he called Armand and told him about the three requests of Stella.
After Armand heard this, he was so angry that he almost stamped his foot in anger, “This woman is really pushing
it! None of these three requests is acceptable. Moreover, why does she want those people’s information! That was
Lyndon’s decision, what does it have to do with us. Does she even want to settle scores with us afterwards!”
Logan said calmly, “Since Mr. Bernard also knows that this was the decision of the former chairman, then giving her
this information will not affect us.”
“If you want to give her, you give. I’m not going to care about this matter,” Armand said, “Also, I won’t pay a single
cent!”
Logan said, “Mr. Bernard, Ms. Radomil also said that you’re not the only one who pays it. She is asking all the
current senior executives to pay it. Moreover, you should think about it in long term. If Ms. Radomil doesn’t go to
the Steward Group and when this matter goes worse and they can’t find the former chairman, they’ll certainly
come to you. By that time, you won’t only lose the little amount like now.”
Armand did not speak and seemed to be considering.
Logan continued, “Ms. Radomil said that her position must be the highest. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Didn’t
the former chariman announce that she will be the one who takes over the Steward Group. Furthermore, with the
current situation of the Steward Group, what is the use to have a high position, nothing can be done anyway. On the
contrary, the higher the position, the greater the responsibility. Once the Steward Group declares bankruptcy, the
person whom everyone is looking for must be her and definitely not you.”
Although he said this, Armand was still a bit annoyed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was the first time after so many years that his position was below a woman who was even a young woman in her
twenties.
“Mr. Bernard, we don’t have much time left.”
“Okay, okay, just do what she said. You go to inform the other senior executives, ask them to raise money to pay
the salary. Regarding the one from my side, remember to only pay a little. Be smart when doing the accounting.”
“Don’t worry, Mr. Bernard.”
After hanging up the phone, Logan contacted a few other senior executives.
Those who were still staying now were either the mates of Armand or the ones with problems in their accounts and
could not leave as no other companies wanted to hire them.
Hearing that they were asked to crowdfund the employees’ salaries, they were a little irritated.
But the fact was obvious. If Stella did not come to the Steward Group, the situation would only be worse than now.
If things went worse and Armand had a downfall, it was inevitable that they would be affected.
So, the group of people tried their best to make up the employees’ salaries together.
Two hours later, Logan reappeared in front of Stella and put down the document with the information she wanted,
“Ms. Radomil, I’ve done all the three things that you asked me to do.”
“Have all the salaries been given.”
Logan said, “We’ve already informed the finance department to work overtime to handle it. It will be given latest by
the end of working time tomorrow.”
Stella nodded and took the document, “Good.”
Logan said, “Then when does Ms. Radomil intend to go to the Steward Group?”
“Tomorrow.” Stella flipped through the document, “At 10 a.m. tomorrow, please help me to convene a meeting. All
the senior executives must attend at that time. Whoever that does not attend or comes late will be asked to pay
salaries of all the workers that work on the project on hold.”
Logan said, “…I’ll inform them.”
“Thank you, see you tomorrow.”
