The Runaway Groom Chapter 302


    Chapter 302


    Any new leader tends to flex his newfound authority, andn was certainly doing that during his first.


    meeting with his key personnel!


    Every head of department was sitting with clenched buttocks, afraid to make a sound.


    However, they were just wary ofn since they were not familiar with him-with Isaac, they were


    earnestly


    reverent instead.


    Still,n was confident after his recent promotion.


    “Starting with Finance, everyone will report any noteworthy events as well as department objectives


    over thest six months,” he said proudly and formally from the chairing seat.


    However, his confidence proved a little excessive, as the Head of Finance rose to his feet and gave a


    lengthy ount of everything the department saw through over thest six months.


    The long and short of it was that there was no ie, only investments.


    “Here’s everything on the projects and investments we oversaw in that timeframe,” he said as he


    handed a thick document folder ton, who was scowling now.


    The thick folder itself was a sign that the financial department had been overseeing many projects and


    investments, but none of them were worthwhile. Since only billion dor projects or investments


    required the board’s approval, anything in that folder was below that threshold, meaning that it would


    escape the board’s notice.


    After all, when Isaac brought thepany to new heights and raked in billions, they decided to hold


    blind faith in most of Isaac’s decisions. That was why they never inspected anything, and never found


    out about the financial outflow and other projects!


    And now…


    The rest of the reports from the other heads of department werergely the same: losses, halted


    projects, projects that require more capital…


    There was no good news at all.


    Naturally,n called off the meeting ahead of schedule, and waited until everyone left and closed the


    doors behind them before bursting out, “Isaac fucked us over!”


    Meanwhile, Quincy had been remaining in her seat, quiet for a while now.


    She knew that things would be bumpy, but never expected an apocalypse.


    “Look,n-the board doesn’t know about this, just as we should not let them find out under any


    circumstances. They’d just point their finger at us, and we won’t even have a chance to arque… Ive


    thought about it, and right now, we need to secure a few convincing megaprojects in the meantime to


    keep their mouths shut.”


    Ian understood that too, but he had gotten weary after learning how bad things were currently.


    Nheless, Quincy encouraged him. “Look-we’re still managing many projects and businesses, so


    some of it has to be profitable. You’re still young, and we have all the time we need. Don’t give up just


    yet.”

    Since they were both busy, their dinner with Robin had to wait.


    However, Robin herself was starting to get distracted becausen was not calling her or seeing her.


    When she tried to ask him out, he would turn her down-which nted the idea in her thatn was


    dumping him after taking over Light Group.


    As she was having an unhappy cup of coffee at a cafe, Mrs. Watson and Irene arrived as well.


    They were just done shopping at the nearby mall and came for a drink, running into Robin by sheer


    coincidence.


    Irene saw that she appeared downtrodden and lethargic, even starting to lose weight.
