Chapter 32 - Poached All the Authors? I Had Thought of a Solution!

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Why did Mona call?

Simon suddenly had a bad feeling.

He picked up the phone. “Mona? What’s wrong?”

“Boss, we are in trouble!”

Mona was very anxious on the other end of the phone, and there was a hint of crying in her voice.

There was no benefit in panicking at this time. Simon said calmly, “There’s no rush. Take your time.”

“Boss, you asked me to check out the people in the technical department today, so I gave the task to my subordinates.”

“In the end, the people in the technical department all resigned!”

They left?

Simon’s expression changed.

If the entire technical department left at the same time, the company would immediately be in a semi-paralyzed state!

“Only the technical department?” Simon asked.

Mona on the other side of the phone was stunned. She had thought of Simon’s thousands of reactions, but she had never expected him to answer like this.

“Do you know everything?” Mona asked in a low voice, “Douglas poached the authors!”

Sure enough!

After taking a deep breath, Simon sneered.

“Boss, Douglas tampered with the content of the contract of the authors for some unknown reason.”

“They were poached at a high price! Now the content could not be updated and maintenance is down.”

“Sob… sob, what are we gonna do?”

As she spoke, Mona finally could not bear the pressure in her heart and cried out loud.

She made a mess of the first assignment her boss gave her.

She managed the company, even the contract had been tampered with but she did not know anything!

It was too useless!

“Boss, I’m sorry, sob sob sob, I’m sorry.” Mona sobbed.

Hearing her cry so loudly, Simon could not bear it.

He comforted her softly, “It’s okay, this is not something you can stop.”

Douglas was once the boss of the company, and he was also a technical consultant, so it was normal for the technical department to listen to him.

But he was really insidious!

He took the authors with him!

Creative’s core industry is the literary network, this was equivalent to being hollowed out the heart.

“Boss, sob sob sob, what should we do now?” Mona asked carefully.

“Go home and have a good sleep.”

“Boss, you’re firing me?”

“Not fire you, it’s a holiday. You must be under a lot of pressure. Go back and have a good rest. We can talk about other things tomorrow.”

Hearing Simon’s words, Mona felt a surge of warmth in her heart.

She didn’t expect that not only did Simon not scold her, but he even comforted her and told her to have a good rest.

She had worked out for a few years and had changed bosses several times, but she had never met such a tolerant person.

Apart from sadness, admiration grew uncontrollably.

“Boss… Then I can really go back?” Mona asked uncertainly.

“Go.”

“If you need anything, please call me. I’ll be on standby!”

“Oh right, send me the revised contract and the original contract first.”

“Understood!”

After saying that, she hung up the phone.

Then, Simon threw his phone on the table.

Jane had been observing Simon the whole time. She did not hear what was said on the other side of the phone. She only saw that Simon’s expression was not good.

She asked worriedly, “What happened to the company? You look terrible!”

“Nothing.” Simon shrugged. “Douglas did something really bad.”

“Ah???”

Bennet and Jane opened their mouths wide. Lydia sat up from the sofa in shock.

“How much did you lose?” Jane was the first to calm down. She was first concerned about the loss.

“I lost the entire technology department and the authors.”

Simon said it lightly. Lydia had no concept of business. She only knew that the matter was serious and did not know how serious it was.

However, Jane and Bennet were different. They were both businessmen. They knew that this serious injury was enough to destroy the entire company!

“Little Simon…” Bennet squatted in front of Simon worriedly. She did not know how to comfort him.

Jane’s face was also solemn. She stared at her younger brother’s face without blinking.

There was one thing that she did not understand.

Why was Simon not surprised at all when such a big thing happened?

Even if he had expected it, he would not have been so calm, right?

What was he thinking?

Noticing that Jane was looking at him, Simon revealed a gentle smile.

“Aiyo, why are you still smiling?” Lydia became anxious for him. “Aren’t you worried?”

Simon smiled but didn’t say anything.

What was done was done. What was the use of being anxious? It was better to think of a way to save it.

“Simon, if you need anything from me, just say it!”

“I will support you with all my might too!”

Looking at the serious looks of the two of them, Simon nodded gratefully at them.

What a joke. The support of his sister and aunty was equivalent to the support of the entire Hilton Group.

As long as he spoke, any company could be restarted.

Other than the outstanding management style and high-quality environment of the website, the other standards of the Creative Company were average.

“Aiyo! Why aren’t you saying anything? Have you turned silly?” Lydia moved closer to Simon worriedly.

Her face was so close that she almost kissed him.

Simon quickly pushed her away and said with a bitter smile, “I’m fine, don’t worry!”

“You’re still fine! Your small company is almost gone!” Lydia cried out in surprise.

It was as if she was the boss of the Creative Company.

Seeing her shocked expression, her beautiful face was filled with cuteness.

“Pfft!”

Simon could not help but laugh out loud.

“Little Simon, are you really okay? Don’t scare me,” Bennet said as she covered her heart.

She had seen too many people who went crazy because of bankruptcy.

The more miserable they were, those people would laugh more.

She would rather have Simon cry in her arms than see him smile and not speak.

Simon smiled helplessly. “I’m really fine, Aunt, Sister.”

“I had a premonition about this outcome. I haven’t taken over the company for long. I definitely won’t be able to defend against Douglas.”

“It’s alright. I already have a way to save the company.”

Hearing that, the three of them widened their eyes in shock.

From the moment they heard the news until now, it had not been more than ten minutes.

The three of them were all busy worrying and panicking.

Simon, on the other hand, was silently thinking of a solution!

Jane’s eyes were filled with admiration. She did not expect her younger brother to be so mature despite his young age!

Her mother had been in business for so many years, and she could not help but be carried away by emotions.

Simon was actually able to get away from all this and use his calm judgment to deal with the sudden situation!

Genius!

A genius in business!

Thinking of this, Jane couldn’t help but want to pull Simon to the group to train him.

How good would it be to have him by her side every day!

Realizing that her thoughts had gone astray, Jane lowered her head shyly.

“Eldest Sister, I need your help to solve this matter,” Simon said with a smile.

Seeing Jane looking at him in a daze, Simon nudged her.

“Eldest Sister, what’s wrong?”

“Ah? Ah… tell me.” Jane came back to her senses and smiled awkwardly.

“Heehee, Eldest Sister is mesmerized by Simon’s handsome appearance!” Lydia narrowed her eyes and smiled maliciously.

“What are you talking about!” Jane glared at her and turned to Simon, “What do you need me to help you with?”

Simon smiled confidently, “You’ll know when you see the contract.”

“Buzz!”

The contract was delivered!
