Chapter More 88
Chapter 88: Mrs. Cooper Surpasses Mr. Cooper
When conversation turned to Mason, it seemed everyone has some knowledge to share.
If Mason wanted to stir trouble, the Cooper Group could well face a series of compensations.
Whether the boss lost money is of little concern to them.
Their worries lay with whether this affair will impact their bonuses.
In an instant, their enthusiasm for celebrity cooled.
“Previously, there was an issue with the garment department. But Mr. Cooper and Mrs. Cooper have clarified with me, and I’m here today to sign a new contract.”
The crowd, “!!!”
A voice called out, “But Wesley isn’t in charge of the garment department.”
Mason arched an eyebrow, questioning, “Is that so? Anyway, I’m here to talk to them.”
With this, it became clear to everyone present.
Previously, the garment department was under the iron grip of Hailey and Terence.
However, as Terence developed Alzheimer, it was shifted to Debra temporarily.
Debra tried manifold methods to reclaim her possessions but only succeeded in attracting troubles.
Now, Wesley has made his move.
“It is Wesley who prevails.”
“It seems as if he is coercing Hailey to transfer all authority to him.”
“The garment department is quite lucrative, but due to the embezzlement of substantial funds, the company’s financial reports are affected.”
“Personally, I would prefer Wesley to take over the garment department.”
“This matter will certainly alarm Hailey. She will not relinquish power easily. But Wesley is also very determined.”
“Today, it seems we have quite the spectacle to witness.”
Archie arrived with a smile, “Mason has other arrangements to attend to, please let him go.”
Right on cue, the security emerged and adeptly cleared the area.
Archie then escorted Mason onto the elevator.
Mason inquired, “What is their stance?”
‘Sandra appears utterly indifferent towards the garment department.”
Mason responded with a laugh, “No matter what attitude she has, that’s my gift to her.”
Archie remained silent, sensing the risk inherent in the situation.
Sandra, even having acquaintance with Lisa, might not have the sway to influence Lisa’s decisions.
They k
the situation of the Cooper Group well.
It was divided into three factions, Debra’s, Wesley’s, and Hailey’s.

The future direction of the Cooper Group was shrouded in uncertainty.
Yet, Mason bet his hopes on Sandra.
Mason must have perceived Archie’s concern,
“Archie.”
“Hm?”
“Do you think Sandra, a village girl, who carved her way through the Cooper, is a simpleton?”
With that, enlightenment dawned upon Archie.
He smiled, “I haven’t considered that.”
The elevator halted, Debra was waiting to greet them.
A headache loomed for Archie.
They intended to collaborate with Wesley, but not at the cost of alienating Debra.
After all, the Cooper Group also had significant investments in the entertainment industry. They couldn’t afford her sabotage.
Yet now.
“Debra.”
Archie hurried forward with a forced smile.
Debra smiled, “Those employees who asked for your sign will be fined.”
Archie said, “They just love Mason, don’t be too hard on them,”
“Since you plead on their behalf, I shall let it pass,” Debra spoke amicably.
Archie’s smile stiffened slightly
This became a debt of a favor owed to Debra.
A favor that needs repayment.
“Let’s talk in my office,” Debra proposed.
Archie remained still.
Mason spotted Joey at a distance.
Joey didn’t approach, clearly gauging his response.
Yet Debra wasn’t alone, for the shareholders of the Cooper Group trailed behind her.
Resignation crept into Mason’s heart.
Sandra was indeed ruthless, sealing off all his exits.
From now on, he could only cooperate with Sandra and Wesley.
He took a deep breath and once more faced Debra, “Debra, I’m not here for you.”
Debra’s smiling facade vanished as whispers flourished amongst the shareholders.
“What does he mean?”
“Debra has summoned us for nothing!”

“I believe this has been pointless.”
“Debra, my apologies. I have urgent matters to discuss with Wesley.”
Mason wore an expression of regret.
“After we conclude, I shall visit you. Please, do not be angered.”
Debra clenched her fist.
Downstairs in the lobby, Archie had made it clear they were seeking Wesley.
So, she intercepted them presuming that Mason would not dare to offend her.
And she held the other shareholders as her witnesses.
She had not anticipated…
“Debra, are you upset?”
Mason’s features sculpted into a cordial smile as he inquired benignly, “Why would I be?”
Debra realized that whoever Mason chose to negotiate with would determine the future of the garment. department.
She was unsettled.
But now was clearly not the time for rash actions. She needed to cleverly devise another strategy.
“Alright then, I shall not intrude further.”
With that, she took her leave
After her departure, Joey approached, “Mason, you certainly have not disappointed Sandra.”
Mason pondered his words, “You seem to heed Sandra’s commands more attentively.”
“Sure.”
“Joey, I am now certain of one thing.”
“What?”
“Sandra holds a status above that of Wesley.”
Joey was dumbfounded. “Is it really that obvious?”
They arrived at the conference room.
Joey was poised to enter and accompany them, awaiting Sandra’s arrival along with Wesley.
However, he then received news that Hailey had come.
Indeed, she was already informed that Mason would be here.
“Mason, there has been a slight change of plans. Come with me,” Joey suggested.
Everyone had presumed that the Cooper was in need of Mason’s favor.
In fact, it was Mason who sought Sandra’s assistance this time.
Therefore, Mason was
“OK.”
