Chapter 74
Natalie was a bit surprised that Old Mr. Johnson appeared on the board of directors.
Old Mr. Johnson had been retired for a long time and seldom came out to deal with the group affairs. Natalie didn’t expect that he would show up here today.
“Natalie, this is my decision. Since you became the president, the group’s income has not increased significantly, and the company’s financial losses have also been incurred due to the purchase of shares of the Roberts Property.”
“You almost brought a catastrophe to the Johnson family because of offending the Ortiz family. You offended Miss Cole, causing damage to the company’s reputation,” Old Mr. Johnson said in a calm and firm tone.
Natalie’s eyes turned red. Except for the Roberts Property taking money and running, Natalie did not take the initiative to cause trouble, but someone picked on her. She didn’t expect that her grandfather would not ask about the cause and process of these things but focus on the results
“Grandpa, I have settled with Miss Cole, and she said she would apologize to our group, compensate for the loss, and even sign a cooperation contract with us for free,” Natalie bit her lower lips and said. She wanted to maintain her position.
“Hah, Natalie, are you kidding me?”
“Miss Cole has already put it clear that you and your good–for–nothing husband must kneel in front of her door for three days and nights!”
“It’s less than three hours. But you told me you’ve settled the matter?”
“Miss Cole will apologize to the Johnson Group, compensate for the loss, and even sign a contract for free? Can’t you make your lie more believable!” Bailey spoke with a cold face.
As soon as she said this, the senior executives burst into a laugh. After all, Natalie’s words were too exaggerated to be believed.
Old Mr. Johnson shook his head and said, “I have already decided on this matter and no more discussion. From now on, Natalie will no longer be the president of the Johnson Group!”
As soon as he said this, it was basically a certainty.
Nathan said with a smile, “Don’t make arbitrary decisions, Old Mr. Johnson. Miss Cole only acknowledges Natalie as the president. If you fire her, and Miss Cole refuses to live up to her word, the company will suffer a big loss.”
Old Mr. Johnson’s face turned cold, and he said in a deep voice, “You are Nathan, right? Back then, the Johnson family owed your father a favor, so we let Natalie marry you. Don’t be ignorant. Otherwise, I will kick you out!”
Bailey sneered, “Miss Cole only acknowledges Natalie? Nathan, stop talking nonsense here! It’s easier for us to dismiss Natalie to obtain Miss Cole’s forgiveness.”
“In order to help her keep this position, you are very caring. You can even make up such a lie.”
Instead of responding to Bailey, Nathan said to Old Mr. Johnson, “Old Mr. Johnson, Grace has already agreed to compensate for the loss, apologize, and sign the contract for free. The money has found us. If you dismiss Natalie now, I assure you that the Johnson Group will not get a penny, and Grace will not sign any more contracts with the group.”
“Hah!” Bailey laughed unscrupulously and said, “If you can ask Miss Cole to forgive you and sign a contract with the group for free, I will kneel to you and call you dad right now!”
When Nathan heard her words, he couldn’t help showing a mocking look. By rights, Bailey should have knelt to him and called him father.
“Okay, remember your words Grace’s people will come with the signed contract and check later, and I hope you don’t go back on your words,” Nathan sneered.
“Of course, I won’t go back on my words! However, if things are not as you said, you have to kneel to me every time you see me in the future. You can’t get up if I don’t allow you to get up!” Bailey said with hands crossing her chest as if she were dead certain she would be the winner.
Old Mr. Johnson waved his hand and interrupted them.
He then said, “I heard the Giradia Group had put a lot of effort into the land. development in Centnova and that they will free up some projects for outsourcing. This is the top priority for our next step. If you can win the project of the Giradia Group in Centnova, it will contribute to the development of the Johnson Group!”
“Giradia Group, a leading company in Mimar City. It was not easy for us to get their projects.”
“That’s right Wendy is famous for being cruel and difficult to get along with.”
“But this is also an opportunity. We must go all out to get some projects from Centnova.”
Old Mr. Johnson’s words attracted everyone’s attention, and they began to discuss.
Nathan said at this time, “Natalie can handle this project!”
He had already made a verbal agreement with Wendy so that he had a certain say in the land development in Centnova. After all, he helped the Giradia Group secure this land from the Roarclaws Group.
Nathan’s words shocked all the executives present. They stopped discussing and looked at Natalie and him. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Natalie was startled by Nathan’s words. She turned to look at Nathan in astonishment as if she was asking him why he talked nonsense again.
Facing a giant like the Giradia Group, Natalie thought the Johnson group didn’t have any outstanding advantage and had no confidence in getting the project of the Giradia Group.
“Grandpa, let’s drive this sensational snob out first so as not to disturb our meeting and decision– making,” Bailey said.
“This kind of no–good can only attract others‘ attention through boasting all day. He doesn’t have any ability. Instead, he likes to cause trouble.”
“If Natalie can make it. Then I can do business with the Porter Group in Emperia City.”
Old Mr. Johnson’s face couldn’t help but dark, and he said coldly, “Natalie, is that what you mean?”
As Natalie was about to shake her head, Nathan said, “This is what Natalie meant. She can do it.”
“I…” Natalie wanted to say something, but Nathan’s reaction was always a beat faster than hers, making her a little annoyed and helpless.
“Hah, the Giradia Group is not a small company. Natalie can do it? You must be joking!”
“If Natalie can reach a cooperation with the Giradia Group and get two projects, I will cut off my head as a ball and give you a kick.”
“Under Natalie’s leadership, the group will only lose money and not make a profit at all! It’s ridiculous that he said she can cooperate with the Giradia Group!”
“You two sensational snobs, to keep the position of president, you don’t even want your face, do you?”
Bailey and the senior executives all expressed their disdain.
Old Mr. Johnson coughed twice, and Nathan noticed his cough sound was a little weird, so he couldn’t help frowning slightly, but he didn’t say anything else.
At this moment, Natalie pinched Nathan, gritted her teeth, and said in a low voice, “Nathan, what the hell are you doing? I don’t have this ability at all. Are you trying to kill me?”
At this moment, a secretary came into report, saying, “Ms. Johnson, there is someone outside who claims to be Miss Cole’s secretary calling for you!”
“Me?” Bailey stood up, feeling refreshed.
“No, it’s Ms. Natalie Johnson,” The secretary pointed at Natalie embarrassingly.
Bailey’s expression suddenly became awkward, then she said coldly, “She must be here to give an ultimatum. Nathan, be ready to kneel to me!”
