A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 311

Emily took Beryl to a highly respectable suburb in Jingshi City. It was in a remote area but it was peaceful, free from the hustle and bustle of the big city.

Emily had returned to Z Country on important business affairs, but since she was worried about leaving Beryl behind, she brought her along with her. If everything went well, she would soon return to D country with Beryl.

To ensure that Beryl was taken care of, Emily hired a nanny and also a teacher, to give Beryl lessons. Once they had settled in, Emily took office at Lu Jewelry.

Headquartered in D country, the Lu family were engaged in the jewelry industry. In foreign countries, their company could compete with Victor's to some extent, but in Z country, its market was still slightly inferior. Coupled with the suppression of other groups, the company's development was not as satisfactory as they thought it would be.

The whole reason behind Emily's return to Z Country was to help develop the company's products in the market.

Since the Lu family had paid considerable amounts of money to help her, she felt obligated to return the favor. Disregarding Sean's objection, Emily brought her daughter along so that she wouldn't have to worry about her all the time.

She was no longer the Emily from her past life. Now she was Cloris, the daughter of the Lu family.

The first day was the office handover. During the handover period, there were so many things to deal with that Emily was buried up to her neck with work. However, since she wasn't used to staying away from Beryl for too long, she hurried back as soon as she was done with work.

On her way back, Emily was greeted by two female employees of the company, who said hello to her politely.

With a confident smile on her face, she nodded her head in response and proceeded on her way.

One of them looked at Emily snidely after she walked away, and said, "What's up with her? Who does she think she is? What powers does an overseas manager have?"

The other one warned, "Keep your voice down. She's the daughter of the Lu family."

"She can't hear us from so far away. Besides, did I say anything wrong? Why would the daughter of the Lu family leave her comfortable life and come to this broken company?" the first employee asked. She gaped her mouth open and yawned lazily, before she added, "Ah, yes. You do not know how arrogant the employees of LA Jewelry and Lin Jewelry are, even the gatekeepers look down on us Lu Jewelry employees."

Meanwhile, they didn't know that Emily's hearing was impeccable. Albeit, unintended, Emily heard everything they had said, but after all these years she had learned how to tune out all the gossips and criticism from her head. Moreover, in the face of absolute power, all criticism was merely a joke.

Only when she heard the name "LA Jewelry", she paused on her tracks.

The female employee continued, as if she had no sense of loyalty to the company, "If the company goes bankrupt quickly, we can get our severance pay earlier... Manager? I didn't see you come back?"

Emily approached them step by step, and the redness of their faces gradually grew deeper, as they realized Emily must have overheard them.

Emily stood in front of them in her high heels, with an icy cold expression on her face, and said, "Could you please say that again?"

One of them swallowed, and looked up at Emily's eyes. Feeling extremely guilty and remorseful, she said, "Sorry, Manager, I was wrong to say that..."

"If you want to work for another company, I can approve your resignation now," said Emily.

"No..." they both refused, as they cowered in fear. They weren't completely witless. Although the performance of Lu Jewelry was not as good as their competitors, the company's employee welfare benefits was one of the best in the industry. Ambitious employees were not willing to work there, whereas the mediocre and incompetent ones didn't mind staying.

Although, occasionally they complained that there was no commission without performance, they did not want the company to go bankrupt.

Unfortunately, Lu Jewelry was indeed facing hard times.
