Renee calmed herself down and returned to the Azure Group.
“Miss Everheart!”
The employees were delighted to see Renee return safely. They happily greeted her.
All the employees that still remained at the Azure Group were loyal people who were determined to follow Renee.
Although there were not many of them and their abilities could not be considered outstanding, they were all passionate, gutsy people. They made sure to properly complete all the tasks they were assigned.
Renee nodded to the employees, then turned to her assistant, Shelley, and said, "Notify every department that we will be holding the monthly meeting right away. All the employees must attend.”
“Yes, Miss Everheart!”
Shelley replied respectfully.
At the same time, Shelley thought to herself that Miss Everheart seemed to be in a great mood. She and Mr. Hunt must have had a great time together last night. That means... the “marriage alliance” between the Azure Group and the H Group would very likely happen.
The conference room was large enough to accommodate over a hundred people. In the past, it would be filled to capacity during monthly meetings, but today, less than a fifth of the room was filled. The rest of the seats were empty. It looked sad.
Renee took the center seat. She could not help but sigh when she saw how sparse the staff had become.
The Azure Group went through four years of ups and downs to reach this point.
When Liam Osborne left, he took a bunch of people with him.
Laura Osborne then took advantage of the Azure Group's moment of weakness to loot them. Not only did she empty their company treasury, she even took away a group of elites.
Among those elites were R&D experts that Renee admired and designers that Renee valued very highly...
A commotion rose among the staff. They cast hostile glances at Jay Yassin.
After all, they saw Renee as a “goddess”. How dare he openly question the decision of the “goddess”?!
“Please elaborate, Mr. Yassin.”
Renee remained calm.
She knew that all the people who stayed behind were those who sincerely wanted the company to do well. Even if they had disagreements, they all merely wanted what's best for the company. She naturally had to respect their opinions.
“I actually agree with what Ms. Osborne said. I don't understand why you would keep spending money to establish a Research and Development Department and a Production Department even though the Azure Group is facing financial difficulties. Do we really have that many things to research and produce?”
“If our company isn't operating at such a large scale, why do we have to establish large-scale R&D and Production departments? It's a waste of money.”
