Chapter 490: The New Official Takes Office, A Small Fire Ignites

Translator: 549690339

In the afternoon work meeting, the usually absent siblings, Sebastian Lewis and Grace Lewis, unexpectedly came to the conference hall early and sat down at the last row.

This not only made it more convenient for them to communicate but also allowed them to see the contempt and disdain towards the newly appointed acting president from the top management at a closer range.

Yes, they had already come to the conclusion that Richelle Dunn and her children would definitely make a fool of themselves during the work meeting.

As for the old man, he certainly wouldn’t be humiliated.

After all, he was only the acting chairman and wasn’t involved in daily management and operations.

However, he would stand up for the young doctor, Richelle, whenever she needed support.

Even though they were the ones with the Lewis surname, the old man chose to stand behind an outsider, a young doctor, instead of supporting his own children!

A hint of resentment and hatred could be seen in the siblings’ eyes as they watched the old man entering the conference hall with Richelle and her three children.

The top management had long heard about the turmoil in the board meeting. Master Lewis had an accident, and the old chairman, under pressure from his unreliable children, had to come out of retirement and serve as the acting chairman.

With his status as the former chairman, there was naturally no room for speculation from others.

What made everyone nervous was the future president and the young children who are to be the acting president.

The mother and her three children were all outsiders; one was a designer, and the other three were five-year-old kids.

Was this combination here to fool everyone and have fun?

Soon, these top management members, who were initially skeptical and distrustful, especially the heads of the planning department, experienced the same powerful face-slapping and shocking moments as Nathan Caroule had earlier.

As the planning directors of the Federation’s top enterprise, Lewis Group, they always thought that their proposals were the best in the Federation.

However, they were unexpectedly pointed out a pile of problems by the supposed outsider acting president and her two five-year-old children.

It wasn’t possible that these issues were suggested by Nathan Caroule, the special assistant.

Because their perspectives and ideas seemed to have never been mentioned before.

That is to say, these seemingly absurd issues that didn’t match what their professionals would have pointed out actually exposed the deficiencies of the plan from depths they had never touched before.

Just like what Nathan Caroule experienced in his office earlier, the senior executives who were initially hit by this new perspective were almost ready to bow down to their future president and young masters!

The original disdain and doubt had now turned into admiration in an instant.

And this change was reflected in their eyes.

Sebastian, Grace, and their siblings, sitting in the back row, watched the top management’s reactions change from initial indifference to intense admiration.

“What the hell, is this young doctor capable of witchcraft or something?”

Although the siblings have been working at Lewis Group for decades, they were practically clueless about those project plans.

In their minds, to be a president, one simply needed to sit at the top and give orders to their subordinates. After all, these employees were paid by Lewis Group, so it was only natural for them to handle all the matters big and small.

As a result, they didn’t understand much about what the top management was discussing and couldn’t see how impressive the issues pointed out by Richelle and her children were.

All they observed was that the top management seemed to have accepted Richelle as their leader by now.

“Witchcraft? Not really. But just look at the crowd. There are more men here. With her charming looks alone, she can easily mesmerize these men!”

Even being a woman herself, Grace Lewis was particularly harsh and sarcastic toward other women!

Despite Richelle and her children winning the trust and admiration of the top management through their abilities, the siblings still believed they had been bewitched by her.

Richelle wasn’t aware of these dirty accusations the siblings made behind her back,

and she wouldn’t even bother to deal with such disgusting losers even if she knew.

After showing off a bit of their talents and gaining unanimous approval from the top management, Richelle and the children decided to hold back a little.

“The opinions expressed by Timmy, Timothy, and myself earlier might have been unreasonable in some aspects. I hope that you, the managers, won’t be too harsh on us. Before Mr. Lewis returns, please continue to contribute to the Lewis Group. For now, Nathan will take charge of the other departments’ affairs.”

Upon hearing Richelle’s concessions, the siblings started to grumble.

“See? I told you she didn’t have what it takes. After all that blabbering, she can’t keep up anymore and has to rely on that bootlicker Nathan Caroule to clean up the mess!”

“Of course, she really thinks she’s a genius who knows everything!”

The siblings whispered at the rear, badmouthing the newly appointed acting president, waiting for Richelle and her children to make a fool of themselves>.

Little did they know, just now, Richelle and her children had already impressed 70 to 80% of the top management present!

They had already accepted this seemingly incredible but actually quite reliable mother and children combination!
