Chapter 281 The Consequences of Confronting Her
“David, how much bribery have you epted? Can you count it yourself? Just because you are the
chairman’s cousin, you have been abusing your power, threatening and harassing female employees.
Do you think you can just end this with money?”
David’s face stiffened; he hadn’t expected Cecelia to investigate him and have leverage over him.
Being exposed by Cecelia in public at this moment made him extremely embarrassed, his face turning
ashen.
“Stephen, how much embezzlement have you engaged in? Do you have any idea? Aside from
luxurious houses and cars, you even arranged for those mistresses of yours to live in the same
neighborhood. You have built yourself quite an impressive ha rem!” Stephen listened, cold sweat
forming on his forehead. He stared at Cecelia in terror, wondering what else she knew.
“As for the other department heads and management personnel, I won’t name each one. You know
best what you’ve done. If you want to leave, leave now while you can! Don’t wait for me to hand over
the evidence to the police and uncover all of your secrets!”
Cecelia’s gaze grew colder and more piercing, her aural
The four ministers who had just left the meeting center were still full of resentment outside.
“Let’s see! Without us, the conglomerate will fall apart. She’ll have to beg us toe back!”
“Exactly! It’s ridiculous to think a little girl could manage thepany!”
“Regardless of everything else, we all hold shares in thepany. What can she do to us?”
Relying on their seniority, they had cultivated a considerablework of loyal supporters. They believed
that after they left, their followers here wouldn’t work diligéntly anyway.
The future development of the conglomerate still relied on them!
Dealing with this stubborn bunch, Cecelia adopted a tough approach. “As you’ve witnessed, I’ve
already dismissed several ministers. This is not a joke! Mr. Mavis, prepare the stock transfer
documents. Have them sign it, I want to purchase their shares, offer them the highest price during
Linsey Corp.’s prime. If they disagree, so be it.”
“Understood!” Ludwig promptly instructed.
Cecelia continued, “My principle has always been simple: if you’re capable, you stay; if you’re not,
you’re out! Anyone hindering thepany’s progress will be removed. Of course, I’ll also respect your
opinions. Whether to stay or go, it’s your decision!”
After Cecelia finished speaking, Ludwig added, “To all management personnel, you’ll each receive two
agreements: one for resignation and one for continued employment with the Tangerine Group.
“If you don’t want to stay, you can sign the resignation agreement, and thepany willpensate
you. If you want to continue, your can sign a new agreement with thepany.
“Starting today, with the signing of new contracts, every employee, from management to the
grassroots, will be subject to performance evaluations.
“At the Tangerine Group, we won’t tolerate any dereliction of duty from now on! We need only those
who can contribute to thepany’s development. Consider your options carefully and submit. the
agreements to HR.”
After the four ministers were ousted earlier, the other management personnel realized the
consequences of confronting Cecelia.
After the meeting, the HR department was crowded with management personnel.
Some unnamed individuals voluntarily resigned, but most chose to stay for their livelihoods.
The four ministers stayed in the HR department and noticed that many of their men resigned. They
thought these individuals were loyal to their cause, as expected of their own kind.
They believed that a mass resignation would undoubtedly have a significant impact on the
conglomerate.
The four waited for Cecelia toe and persuade them to stay, but soon, someone came with stock
transfer documents for them fo sign.
David mmed the table in frustration. “She really doesn’t care about our feelings at all. She doesn’t
intend to keep us at all?”
Stephen sighed. “Ah, let’s leave! It’s not like we don’t have anywhere else to go!”
“That’s right. Let’s see how she manages thepany!”
David and the others understood that the conglomerate’s stock price was currently low, but the
company was willing to buy back their shares at the peak stock price. They weren’t fools, the deal was
a good one.
And so, the four signed the stock transfer agreements,pleted the resignation procedures, and left
thepany.
In the chairman’s office, Ludwig and Cecelia were discussing their next steps.
“President Linsey, many people have resigned along with them. I’m worried they’ll take the customers
with them and join rivalpanies to oppose us. What should we do?”
“Mr. Mavis, you’re overthinking it. As long as we cut off their options, no one will want them!”
Cecelia had made up her mind-she was going to bring about aplete overhaul of the conglomerate!
She instructed Ludwig to issue an announcement on behalf of the Tangerine Group to the public.
The announcement explicitly named David, Stephen, and others who were dismissed due to dereliction
of duty, along with other resigned employees. It stated that once resigned, they would never be rehired.
The release of this announcement meant that David and others had been branded with the mark of
dereliction of duty. It was believed that nopany would hire workers like them.
With the conglomerate’s announcement, those who were hesitant about changing jobs were frightened
to the point of reconsidering their decisions to leave. They now knew they had to be cautious and work
diligently.
Besides removing those who refused to obey her, Cecelia also had Ludwig secretly investigate the
employees. Those who had never gotten any promotion despite their hard work were promoted.

Additionally, Cecelia instructed Ludwig to eliminate the employees who got in because of nepotistic
rtionships in thepany. They drafted another announcement that promised three times the bonus
at the end of the year to anyone willing to stay and work diligently.
With this announcement, many of those who were tempted to resign due to agitation chose to stay
because of the threefold bonus. Those who had impulsively left now regretted their decision but had no
chance of returning to thepany.
Chapter 281 The Consequences of Confronting Her
With these incentives and penalties in ce, the turmoil within the Tangerine Group finally subsided.
Ludwig carried out the work arrangements ording to Cecelia’s instructions.
From Cecelia’s swift and decisive style, Ludwig saw her exceptional leadership abilities-her
commanding strategy and wisdom.
“I will leave the rest to you now, Mr. Mavis. I’m counting on you from now on!”
After attending the management meeting, when Cecelia was about to leave, she entrusted Ludwig.
“President Linsey, rest assured, I will steer the Tangerine Group back on track. Just wait and see!”
Ludwig, who was originally managing only a small fundpany, now carried the responsibility of
managing a massive conglomerate. The task was a challenging one, but Cecelia’s words made him
high in spirits.
The outside world was rife with news about the downfall of Linsey Corp. and the rise of Tangerine. The
conglomerate was about to usher in a new era.
Amidst the transition from old to new, there were bound to be discordant voices, but none could stop
the march of change.
After resolving thepany’s matters, Cecelia went to the hospital. Verda was getting better every day.
During the time Everest took care of Verda, their rtionship had evidently progressed.
Cecelia then went to see Cynthia, who had been unconscious for several days and showed no signs of
waking up.
Remington had already taken the children back, leaving only Aurora waiting outside the ICU.
After Aurora exchanged greetings with Cecelia, Aurora’s expression was filled with concern. “What can
we do? It’s been days, and she’s not waking up at all.’
Looking at Cynthia unconscious behind the ss, Cecelia suddenly had a bold idea. “Aunt Snow, don’t
worry. I have a n that might help her wake up sooner!”
“What n?”
