The young man was at a loss for words before retaliating angrily, “I can’t believe you recorded the meeting! Isn’t that against the


    law?”


    The corner of Elisa’s lips twitched. “Thew, you say?”


    The look on everyone’s faces changed instantly.


    One of the women who looked up to Elisa shot a sharp look at the young man. “Did you sleep enough yesterday? How are you


    always so senseless? Ms. Bt is Iris – I think she knows very well what is against thew and what is not!”


    It was considered polite of her to not point out that he was an idiot.


    “I...” he stuttered.


    Meanwhile, Darell’s face darkened.


    Though Elisa did not mention his name, he was the one who came up with the recruitment process. She’s implying that I’m


    incapable, isn’t she?


    Underneath the table, his fists were clenched tightly as he struggled to reign in his anger.


    “What are your thoughts on this, Mr. Anderson?” With that, Elisa nced at him coolly.


    This was not the first time he had opposed her ideas.


    Though he was just a deputy manager, it wasmon knowledge that he had already hijacked the manager’s responsibilities.


    Everyone in the department had to take his orders.


    Everyone turned around to look at him.


    He gritted his teeth before exining, “I’m not using you of insulting me. I just think that there are some problems with the


    candidate just now. He has such an erratic temper. I don’t understand why you insisted on hiring him. Did he disy such high


    moral values?”


    Elisa retorted calmly, “He is slightly stubborn, but he isn’t hical. One needs to think out of the box when handling the


    mechanics of a machine. During the interview, he checked those boxes.”


    The main reason Elisa was facing a bacsh now was because of her status.


    If Gareth had made the same decision, no one wouldin. They would even praise him in an attempt to suck up to him.


    Yet, now that Elisa was taking the lead, everyone questioned her decisions.


    If she was still married to Gareth, it was highly likely that no one would say a thing. Since she didn’t have such a status now,


    everything was different.


    Darell let out a cold snort. “Just do whatever you want.”


    He obviously disagreed with her, but she ignored him and addressed the rest of the group.


    “I know everyone is doubtful of my capabilities, seeing that I’ve just joined thepany. I don’t care what you think of me, and I


    won’t take it personally. Of course, I will never take revenge against anyone. However, you must take my orders since you work


    for me.”


    Thest sentence was spoken with such authority that they felt a familiar sense of pressure.


    Everyone jolted in their seats before realizing it was Elisa – not Gareth – standing in front of them.


    The pressure they give out is so simr! It felt suffocating at that moment, and I almost forgot how to breathe!


    No one dared to say anything. Even Darell felt as though he was imprisoned, forgetting to protest against her.


    A sudden silence fell upon the room, but Elisa was not done with her speech.


    As everyone held their breaths, she locked eyes with Darell indifferently.N?velDrama.Org owns all ? content.
