Chapter 498


    “You may resign if you wish, but that doesn’t mean you won’t be held ountable for your dishonest pr


    actices in the past.”


    Dahlia proceeded coldly. “Mr. Levin, if I recall correctly, you dipped your hands into 20 million worth of c


    ompany funds, and you have not paid it back yet. For this, you will need to serve out a long sentence in


    prison.”


    Hearing that, a man with a bald spot who stood as the head of the group leaving instantly froze and sw


    eated profusely. He wondered how Dahlia learned about his action when he made sure he carried out t


    he crime seamlessly.


    She ignored his question and continued, “Ms. Wagner, as the Director of Finance, you are in the greate


    st trouble. Thepany makes profits annually, but after you took charge, the books showed that we w


    ere making losses. Not only that, you have been asking the headquarters for money for your personal u


    se. Your greed knows no bounds!”


    “Y–


    you! That’s nonsense!” A woman dressed luxuriously suddenly screamed at Dahlia, resembling a cat w


    ho had its tail stepped on.


    “You don’t believe me? Have a look for yourself.” Dahlia didn’t bother to exin further and threw a few


    files containing the results of her investigation onto the table.


    “What?” The woman took a good look at the files and instantly appeared ashen–


    That was not the end of it


    yet. Dahlia scanned the room, and for each person sheid her eyes on, she’d announce the misdeeds


    of that individual. “Mr. Price, you are saddled with huge debts from gambling, right? If not, you wouldn’


    t have sealed a deal worth 100 million for a mere 30 million!


    “And you, Mr. Gillis, your son, wife, cousins, and other rtives are working in thepany. Do you thi


    nk they can stay if you resign?


    “Oh, one thing almost slipped my mind. Mr. Regan, you seem quite close to thedies from the human


    resources department. How would your wife react to that?”


    Then, she rattled off the tainted records of most of the senior executives. The attendees were dismaye


    d to learn that she had essed all the information. She had obviouslye prepared!


    “Ladies and gentlemen, I will not stop you from resigning, but I will send the evidence I collected to Reg


    ulus Nicholson. Your fate will be in his hands, be it bankruptcy or jail time. However, you have another c


    hoice, which is to stay and work under me. If so, I will not hold you responsible for your dirty deeds in th


    e past. Now, it’s your choice to stay or leave.” With that, Dahlia finished her speech and stood at the sid


    e.


    The senior


    executives exchanged sheepish looks, each one trembling in dread. It was at that moment that they rea


    lized the fearful character of the new chairman. Any hint of disdain from earlier was reced by fear.

    After moments of hesitation, the group of executives who staged a walkout quietly returned to their seat


    s, their heads hung low, and their arrogance was wiped away.


    “Amazing.” Dustin secretly admired Dahlia’s strategy of utilizing both the carrot and the stick to subjuga


    te


    most of the protesting staff.


    “Mr. Hoffman, do you have anything more to add?” She turned her attention back to Hank, knowing that


    the


    only way to be inplete control was to bring Hank Hoffman to his knees.


    “That’s very impressive indeed.” Laughing, he pped his hands. “Dahlia Nicholson, I have to admit th


    at


    you’re quite something. But you


    need more than a few tricks.”
