Contrary to Isabella’s expectations, Michael was quite friendly and showed
no signs of a power struggle. Within a short span of twenty minutes, he had
gathered all the senior executives in the conference room. Isabella sat at the
head of the table, her gaze sweeping over everyone present, and a chorus of
“Hello, Miss Symons” echoed around the room as if rehearsed.
Remaining calm and composed, Isabella offered a faint smile as she briefly
introduced herself. “There’s no need to be nervous. Although Nemotors has
changed ownership, the operational management remains the same, and I
have no intention of laying anyone off.” Her words seemed to relieve many in
the room. “I would like everyone to hand over all the projects you have
worked on in the past three years. Please deliver them to my office before
the end of the day.”
“Three years?” A middle-aged woman with long hair sitting in the middle of
the room exclaimed in disbelief.
Isabella’s smile remained unchanged as she asked lightly, “Do you have an
issue with that, Ms. Hopkins?”

Juliette Hopkins hesitated for a moment before forcing a laugh. “No.”

“If there are no objections, then please get to work. The Shaffer Group values
efficiency. Regardless of Nemotors’ previous work mechanism, once you’re
here, it’s best to leave all jokes behind, or it won’t reflect well on anyone.” After
delivering her concise message, Isabella turned to Michael. “Mr. Zimmers,
could you please introduce everyone present?”
Michael, who had been smiling throughout, stood up and introduced
everyone to her. He had plenty of positive things to say about each person,
sprinkling in a joke or two as constructive criticism, leaving no room for
rebuttal.
Listening attentively, Isabella committed everything to memory. She then
compared this information with the data she had previously reviewed, which
gave her a clear understanding of the situation. On her first day, she didn’t
plan to make a big fuss and concluded the meeting after meeting everyone.
While escorting her upstairs, Michael apologized all the way. “I didn’t know
you were coming, so the office hasn’t been cleaned up yet.”

On the other hand, Isabella was glad she had shown up unannounced. Given
Michael’s status at Nemotors, nobody knew how many hidden cameras there
would be in the new office he would have arranged for her. “There’s no need
to clean up a new one. The former president’s office will do.”
“But that’s not appropriate. The rest area and other facilities are not
convenient.” Michael looked apologetic, as if he was about to slap himself
and apologize.
However, Isabella insisted and pressed the button for the top floor of the
office building. With no other choice, he agreed to have the office renovated
soon. After escorting her to her office, he stayed behind to chat. Most of his
talk was about his grievances, and he thanked the Shaffer Group for
acquiring Nemotors, not forgetting to express his hope to weather the storm
with Isabella and help Nemotors through its difficulties.
Isabella listened with a smile, deeply moved, and had Alex see him out. As
soon as the door closed, her smile faded. After a while, Alex returned, patting
her chest and whispering, “My God, this guy is a smooth talker. He’s way
above Jonas Stokes’ level.”

Isabella pulled a wry smile. “Jonas Stokes is no match for him.”

“If you don’t get rid of him, there’s a good chance you’ll be marginalized here,”
Alex whispered.
Isabella was well aware that Michael had to go. Besides, she had promised
Mandy and couldn’t just drop the ball. Later, she sent Alex to the sales
department, repeatedly reminding her, “Hold on no matter what. In a few
days, I’ll make you a star.”
Alex laughed and left cheerfully. “Don’t worry, even if I’m not a star, I’ll still
make a big impact.”
Relieved, she knew her personality well, and the people in the sales
department wouldn’t be difficult to handle. Once settled in her office, she
checked her phone. There were no messages, and there was no news from
Seth. Even if Nemotors isn’t worth much, this man doesn’t have to be so
indifferent. Holding her phone, she took a deep breath, comforted herself,
and cheered up. After all, she wasn’t working to impress Seth, so it didn’t
matter whether he cared or not.

One by one, the various departments delivered the project files from the past
years, and her office quickly became cluttered. Isabella spent the morning
reviewing them and didn’t leave her office until nearly eleven to get a cup of
water.
The corridor was quiet. It wasn’t until she approached the pantry that she
heard some noise.
“You can tell she’s a petty person who’s come into power. She even dared to
confront an experienced employee like Ms. Hopkins.”
“That suit looks so tight on her. It’s about to burst at the chest.”
“Everyone knows about her relationship with Seth Shaffer. It’s obvious that she
had used her body to get where she is now...”
Blinking, Isabella looked down at her chest and clicked her tongue. The suit is
indeed too tight. I should have bought a larger size.
The conversation in the pantry was getting heated, and the topics were
becoming more and more inappropriate.

“Seth Shaffer looks so reserved. I didn’t expect him to be attracted to this
type.”

“That suit, huh? It’s a provocative outfit. Maybe she wears it in bed...”
Isabella licked her back molars, reaching out to push the door open. “I rarely
wear suits. Usually, I wear pajamas in bed.”
