Chapter 38 A Warning
Vivianna looked at Anaya‘s expression as she answered the phone, trying to find jealousy on Anaya‘s face,
However, there was no expression on Anaya‘s face, Until she got off the elevator, Anaya did not give Vivianna a look
Vivianna grilled hier teeth and thought that Anaya was trying to maintain her dignity.
She had never thought that Anaya looked down at the objects that she thought highly of
Vivianna was just like a clown,
Anaya sorted out the information and was about to attend the meeting when Mark‘s secretary came to inform her “Ms. Dutt, Mr. Dutt asked me to inform you that the board meeting will be postponed for half an hour.”
Anaya nodded and said, “Got it. You can go out now.”
After ten minutes, Anava received a call from a shareholder asking her why she had not arrived since the meeting had begun
Anaya narrowed her eyes coldly.
Mark was deliberately making things difficult for her.
“Sorry, I‘ll come over now.”
She went upstairs with Alex. When she opened the door of the conference room, Mark said in a strange tone, “Ms. Dutt, you are really busy. You came so late to the meeting. You don‘t have any
sense of time.”
Anaya lifted the hair falling at the end of her eyes and smiled. “Just now, your secretary came to look for me. I couldn‘t help but chat a little more with her and forgot the time.”
Mark frowned.
His secretary only stayed in Anaya‘s office for half a minute. What could they talk about?
Although he did not know what Anaya was up to doing, Mark still deliberately targeted her. “In your eyes, is it more important to chat with a secretary than to attend the meeting?”
Anaya pulled out a chair and sat down. Her slender legs were crossed, and she was still smiling, “Mr. Dutt, you misunderstood me. In my place, work is the most important thing. What I talked to her about is concerning my work.”
“She‘s my secretary. What do you have to talk to her about?” Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
“There was nothing to talk about, but I heard that you were a little close to her a few days ago. I was worried that she would affect your work, so I reprimanded her.”
Anaya smiled and said sarcastically, “Mr. Dutt, you are single. It‘s not a big deal for you to be with someone. But Riven Group clearly prohibits office romance...
“And if I remember correctly, your secretary seems to be married, right? Mr. Dutt, you are a higher–up in the company after all. With so many people watching you, you‘d better have a sense of proportion.”
Anaya had already collected a lot of evidence of Mark‘s mistake. She had planned to deliver a knockout blow to Mark However, Mark took the initiative to provoke her, so she warned Mark.
Mark‘s face was dark with rage.
How could Anaya know about his affairs with his secretary?
Frank thought that Anaya was just talking nonsense. He glanced at Mark and saw Mark‘s ugly expression. He understood that what Anaya said was the truth.
He glared at Mark and lowered his voice. “What happened between you and your secretary?”
Markpushed all the blame onto his secretary, “That bitch seduced me. I let my guard down for a moment... The matter is hidden very well. No one in the company knows about it. I don‘t know how Anaya found out...”
In their positions, no one could keep their noses clean.
Frank knew many men who had affairs. He was used to it, so he was not too angry. He only warned Mark. “Fire that woman. By the way, next time you play with a woman, keep a low profile. Don‘t let anyone catch you.”
“I see.”
Mark clenched his fists under the conference table and glared at Anaya resentfully,
Seeing that Mark had shut up, Anaya returned to the main topic, “Previously, the Maltz Group withdrew their investment, and it brought a lot of pressure to Riven Group. Fortunately, everyone here has not given up and fought for Riven Group. Finally, just yesterday...”
“Ms. Dutt.” Frank interrupted Anaya. “Since you know that the withdrawal of the Maltz Group has caused a loss to Riven Group, why didn‘t you go to negotiate with Mr. Maltz?”
Anaya looked at Frank and said, “I have already looked for Mr. Maltz. He is not willing to cooperate with us again.”
“I am afraid that you didn‘t show your sincerity to him.”
Frank was certain that it was Anaya‘s fault. “The whole thing started because of you. It has been more than a week, but you still refuse to let go of your pride and bow to Mr. Maltz... Ms. Dutt, you put your personal grudges in front of the company‘s interests. With such a work attitude, forgive me for being blunt, I think you fail to be a qualified manager.
“In addition, the last time Mr. Dutt expressed his opinion in the ward. He said that even if you bet on the entire Riven Group, he would support your decision and not let you suffer any grievances. I have no intention of offending you, but I want to ask, have you really considered the interests of all the people in Riven Group?”
The whole Dutt family knew about Adams‘ decision, but inany people on the board of directors still did not know about it.
Frank put Anaya and Adams on the opposite side of the collective interest because he wanted to tell everyone about Adams‘ and Anaya‘s irresponsible behaviors and let everyone see the situation.
In the hands of Adams and Anaya, there was no future for Riven Group.
Frank thought he was the one who truly considered those directors and could bring benefits to them!
After his remarks ended, the other directors began to criticize Anaya.
“Quiet.” Anaya raised her voice and waited for the surroundings to calm down before speaking unhurriedly, “Mr. Dutt is right. I mixed my personal affairs with my work. I apologize for this.”
“It‘s good that you know it.” Seeing that Anaya had admitted her mistake, Frank felt comfortable.
Anaya always had an appropriate smile on her face. She suddenly changed the topic and said, “However, did what I did during this period bring any losses to Riven Group?”
Frank froze.
Anaya continued. “The investment that I gained from the Tarleton family was enough for all the projects in Riven Group to run normally. As of now, Riven Group did not lose a single cent because of the Maltz Group withdrawing its – investment
“You said that I have never considered the interests of the collective. Then, may I ask, who has been running all over the place to get investment in this period? My efforts are indeed insignificant. You said that I am completely not considering the interests of Riven Group. This is indeed a little too much..
“Moreover, even if I went to beg Joshua to stop as you said, what about the future? who can guarantee that Joshua will no longer withdraw his investment because of a momentary willfulness and ruin Riven Group? This kind of unstable partner, are you really willing to rely on him forever?
Joshua withdrew his investment and brought pressure on Riven Group. However, it was because of this pressure that Riven Group had the motivation and strength to go up a level. Yesterday, I had already gained Prudential Group‘s investment. Prudential Group has a famous reputation internationally. Presumably, such a partnership would be much more reliable and stable than the Maltz Group‘s capricious leader.”
When it came to Prudential Group‘s investment, Anaya felt that luck played a great role. It did not have much to do with her own strength, so she did not intend to take credit. She just wanted to take it lightly and proceed to the next part of the meeting.
However, Frank kept provoking her and making things difficult for her. Therefore, Anaya could only use this matter to refute his imputation.
As soon as Anaya finished her words, those directors instantly changed their attitudes again.
“Prudential Group... Is that Prudential Group I think of?”
“I also heard that Jared has returned back, but I haven‘t got accurate news yet... We have no news at all, but Anaya has already gained Prudential Group‘s investment?”
**To be honest, Anaya has performed quite well recently. Not long ago, she managed to cooperate with Green Company. She is quite capable.”
“Ms. Dutt, why didn’t you say it in the beginning since you‘ve already gained the investment from Prudential Group?” Frank‘s face turned gloomy as he listened to the other directors‘ praises of Anaya.
Was Anaya trying to embarrass him?
“I planned to say it. But did you give me a chance?”
Frank was so furious that he almost had a heart attack. He forced himself to maintain his expression so that he would not lose his composure. “I was impulsive... I was doing this for the sake of Riven Group‘s interests. Ms. Dutt, please don‘t take it seriously...”
Frank had been in his position for many years, and he was the most flexible. He was unreasonable, so he iminediately apologized to Anaya,
Mark was unhappy and said, “Although she gained investment from Prudential Group, the Maltz family withdrew their investinent because of her. She just made up for her mistakes. Why are you flattering her like this?”
