Eden's face suddenly turned cold, and she looked at Gwyneth with sharper eyes, "Do you mean that as Victor's wife and the director of Alwynn Group, I can't even make such a decision? Won't you be convinced until Victor comes back and orders you in person?"
Gwyneth replied seriously, "Director Bleu, I've never doubted Mr. Alwynn's orders."
"So, are you questioning Mrs. Alwynn ability now?" Paula, who was sitting aside, couldn't stand Gwyneth anymore.
It seemed that Gwyneth was another woman who wanted to seduce Victor.
Even she had given up, but such an old woman like Gwyneth still had a day dream!
Eden looked at Paula in surprise. She actually spoke for her.
What was wrong with Paula that day? She was so strange.
Gwyneth pursed her red lips and looked at Paula haughtily, "As an assistant, you're not qualified to speak here, are you?"
Just as Paula was about to speak, Eden stopped her quickly.
Paula looked at her and said madly, "Mrs. Alwynn, she doesn't respect you at all. If you tolerate her, she will be more and more arrogant."
Eden knew that she was right, but what Gwyneth had done always made her think too much.
For example, she wondered if Gwyneth had been bribed as well, just like Irma.
Thinking of this, Eden looked at Paula and smiled, "It's okay."
Seeing Eden's attitude, Gwyneth sneered with satisfaction.
"Director Bleu, I have a lot of work to deal with, so I really don't have time to give consideration to her. Besides, she is a new actress. I really can't agree with you. If she let us down, I can't explain to Mr. Alwynn."
She knew that Eden was weak. Since Victor was not here, she could vent her anger on Eden.
When Eden looked at Gwyneth, she saw all her expressions.
Eden said slowly, "Gwyneth, I will definitely choose Claire. If your department can't do this job well, I can package her by myself."
"What? You? Can you do it well?" Gwyneth looked at Eden in disbelief.
Then she smiled and looked at Eden as if she was a joke. Was Eden capable enough to do it well?
Eden smiled and said, "Gwyneth, whether I can do it well or not, it's my own business. But since you refuse to do the work, it's your responsibility, isn't it?"
Gwyneth's face changed. Anyone in Alwynn Group who didn't obey the orders would be expelled. When she was about to explain, Eden suddenly stood up and said sonorously, "The meeting is over."
All the managers immediately got up and left one by one in panic. Eden seemed to be as horrible as Victor.
When the sales manager passed by Gwyneth, he muttered, "Has Mr. Alwynn ever questioned Mrs. Alwynn's decisions? I was forced to sit here for another hour because of a woman who has impure intentions. What a waste of time!"
Gwyneth heard his words clearly.
Gwyneth did not expect that Eden would make such a decision. She just wanted to embarrass Eden, and she did not want to lose her job.
She said, "Director Bleu..."
However, Eden interrupted her words coldly and looked at her seriously, "Get out of my way. I don't have time to argue with you about whether you want to do it or not. As a member of Alwynn Group, you should know your position well, and you should know that you've embarrassed me today. Although I am kind, I will not be kind to everyone, especially at work. When you made things difficult for me selfishly in such a crucial moment, didn't you made a good excuse for yourself?"
"Our new collection is going on the market soon. Everyone is doing their best to prepare for it, but you stood out to show that you're different. Since you did it, you have to bear the consequences."
After Eden finished speaking, she glanced at Gwyneth's stunned face and left quickly.
Back to the office, Eden slammed the documents on her desk angrily.
She was too furious, and she could not vent her anger by biting her lower lip several times. She drank up a glass of cold water, but rage still bubbled below the surface of her mind.
She returned to her desk and looked at the time. Victor should be at the airport at this time.
She picked up her phone and called Victor.
"Hello? Honey, I just got off the plane, and I was about to call you to tell you that I'm safe." Victor's pleasant voice came from the phone.
Eden smiled, "That's good. Remember to eat on time."
"Okay. But honey, why is your tone so strange? Are you unhappy? Or do you miss me?" Victor's somewhat wicked voice sounded proud.
Eden lowered her head and said with a smile, "I'm not unhappy. It's just that I'm so busy today. By the way, I just want to tell you that I have chosen the spokesperson. She's a new actress in Mirth Company, and her name is Claire. I have confirmed it."
