Chasing The Fierce Heiress

“I’m just going to tell you the basic information of the coffee factory,” he said, taking it for granted. “The directors couldn’t say no even if they were here.”

Hazel was speechless. How could the directors dare to ask for trouble in front of him, much less make him even more unhappy?

However, he was right. He told her these things, which only made it easier for her to know the basic information.

“Well, what’s the problem with that coffee factory?” she asked curiously.

Just then, Jaxson brought the information, and Joshua gave her a copy, saying peacefully, “This coffee factory doesn’t seem to have any obvious problems. Sales have been relatively stable over the years, although they drop on the overall report.”

Hazel was surprised, she had thought the coffee factory suffered from losses.

“But its problem is harder to solve.” Joshua frowned a little. “It has sales that are stable because the market is nearly saturated. In this case, there is not much possibility of improving it.”

Hazel frowned. She understood what Joshua meant. Sure enough, the directors gave her such a difficult problem. They very likely never miss an opportunity to show she was wrong, and there would be nothing Joshua could do to help her at that time.

“I want to go on a field trip first.” Hazel put away the data. With only factual material, she could not obtain much information. She could only have a visual impression if she went to the site personally.

“Fine, let Jaxson go with you.” Joshua nodded. The coffee factory was located in an industrial park just outside the city, so he didn’t have to worry about Hazel’s safety, and that was also why he hadn’t been too opposed at the meeting.

“Jaxson…” she shook her head after a while of hesitation. “No, he’s your man. I’m afraid it’ll be controversial if I take him.”

He frowned, but before he could say anything, she spoke, “Joshua, don’t you believe me? Don’t worry, I will take more bodyguards and pay more attention to my own safety! Besides, I don’t think the directors would dare to put me in any danger if they really want to do something, right?”

The Denmark Group had just undergone a “reform,” the directors knew it very well that Joshua did it for Hazel. Moreover, even Fred Cohen, who had had a great relationship with the Denmark family, had been kicked out of the imperial capital by Joshua for a casual reason.

Who would dare to do anything to endanger Hazel? That was why they were so angry that they wanted to make things hard for her in other aspects.

“… All right.” Seeing that Hazel would not back down, he told her, “If you run into any situation, you must call me first.”

“Mmm, I will.” She assured him seriously.

Hazel finished arranging her trip when Mandy called.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“Mandy, what can I do for you?” She asked.

“Well, Hazel,” Mandy sounded a little hesitant. “Since you helped me to pay my hospital bill. I want to meet with you and give you back the money.”

Hazel smiled quietly. “No, wasn’t too much. Besides, you’re sick because you helped me. Can’t we call it even?”

“No, no,” Mandy said hastily, “You must pay back the money you owe! And you’ve done me a great favor, too!”

“All right…” Hazel knew Mandy’s personality, so she looked at the time. “Are you free at 4 PM? I’ll buy you coffee.”

After they arranged the time and location, Mandy arrived at the door of the café and saw Hazel was already there. Hazel was about to call her when Mandy was stopped at the door. She frowned a little and walked over quietly.

The person who stopped Mandy was just any stranger. It was Susan’s new assistant who once helped Susan beat Mandy.

The new assistant stopped Mandy at the door proudly, with a look of contempt. “Mandy, you have debts of two hundred thousand dollars, and I heard you got fired again? Depending on your current financial situation, can you still afford coffee? Don’t make me laugh!”

“Laura, I, I really was asked to meet someone!” Mandy said angrily. However, her anger was not a deterrent because her usual image was that she could be bullied very easily.

“Someone?” Laura sneered. “All of your friends are staying away from you. Who’s going to ask you out at this time? You wouldn’t say it’s Hazel, would you? Then you’re really a dumb bitch. Hazel made you lose your job twice. She’s your nemesis. You actually have a meeting with her?”

Hazel was in a daze. She had heard their conversation clearly. Was it because of her that Mandy lost her new job again?

The last time she saw Mandy was at a watch shop when she was with Patty Hamilton. Was it possible that Patty deliberately made things difficult for Mandy because there was no way to vent her anger after that incident?

With Patty’s personality, it could have possibly happened.

“We have a meeting. Do you have a problem?” Hazel came out of the corner and looked coldly at Laura.

Laura was taken aback. She looked at Hazel in disbelief, apparently not expecting to really see her there.

But the next moment, she sneered and said, “You’ve really joined up as expected. Miss Crowe, you’re really awesome. You clearly knew your relationship with Susan, but you actually plotted against her! I tell you, Susan cares about your relationship and doesn’t want to fall out with you. But I am quite different, and I am not afraid of you!”

“You look great for sucking up to your master,” Hazel said as she looked at her nonchalantly. “But Susan is not here, you’re wasting your time acting.”

“You…” Laura hit the ceiling.

But before she could say anything, Hazel said, “But since you know very clearly about my relationship with her, do you think she’s going to protect you or ‘care’ about my relationship with her if I do something to make her fire you?”

Laura’s face changed, she had been around Susan, who was not calculating. Laura knew a lot of Susan’s secrets, including why she quit the entertainment industry. She was thankful that Susan didn’t fire her and allowed her to stay. But if Hazel really pushed Susan, Susan wouldn’t necessarily keep her.

“Mandy, I didn’t mean to do that just now,” Laura suddenly said in a soft tone. “You know, Susan is really kind to me, even if she’s not good enough. So…”
