Chapter 29 Krista Paid The Price

Chapter 29: Krista Paid The Price

At the same time, what happened in Brown Group which was a little far away from the downtown area shocked everyone, too. Everyone from the Brown family and the employees couldn't believe what they saw.

This morning, Krista went to work as usual. It was the off-season, so she and her family members were not so busy. Moreover, the development of the company hit a bottleneck, and they couldn't make a breakthrough easily. It was difficult for them to gain more market share, and they had cash- flow problems. They couldn't get most of the payment on goods. As a result, it was hard for them to expand production.

Krista went to the hall, as usual, making coffee and chatting with the staff. At this time, a female employee who dressed fashionably walked toward Krista and asked, "Miss Brown, I heard that your family wants Jayna to come back to work? Everyone in the company has got the news. When will she come back? Will she have an impact on us after she gets a job here?"

Krista took a sip of coffee and said sarcastically, "Ha-ha. Do you think she can come back? It's not that simple. Don't worry. She can't come back to work because she has to complete one of the three tasks if she wants to come back to work. Ha-ha... About the three tasks, even I can't complete one of them, let alone her..."

Hearing Krista's words, the female employee immediately became interested and hurriedly asked, "Miss Brown, what are the three tasks? Tell me about it..."

The female employee spoke loudly and attracted other female employees in the office. Suddenly, seven or eight female employees gathered around Krista, and Krista enjoyed the feeling of being admired. She smiled and said in an arrogant tone, "Ha-ha. The first task is that she has to get two million dollars back from Reed's company. The second task is that she has to sign three new

contracts with different companies. The third task is that she has to solve a problem for the company. Which of them is easy to complete? What do you think?" Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

When Krista finished speaking, the female employees around her suddenly looked bitter because these three tasks were too difficult to complete. The female employee who first asked Krista stood up and said, "Alas! Jayna is so miserable. It seems that she can't come back to work. Miss Brown, I think Jayna is too silly. You're her elder sister. You'll give her a job if she flatters you, but she's stupid and stubborn..."

"Yes, I heard that she always looked aloof when she worked in the company before. Humph......" Another female employee said contemptuously. They were Krista's subordinates, and they knew how powerful Krista was in the company, so they kept flattering Krista.

Krista smiled proudly and said, "Alright, go back to work. You don't have to pay attention to Jayna. Just rest assured. She can't come back to work..."

When those female employees were about to leave, the accountant in the finance office rushed out and said to Krista, "Miss Brown, we've received Reed's payment on goods. He paid us three million and four hundred thousand dollars. What's more, he signed another contract with us and paid one million dollars in advance. Is Mr. Brown here? Will you tell him about it in person? Or should I report it to him?"

"What? What did you say? Did Reed transfer the payment on goods to us?" Krista was surprised. She forgot about the coffee and stared at the accountant in disbelief.

The accountant nodded and said, "Yes, I called the accountant in Reed's company to confirm this. He told me Reed had reached an agreement with Jayna, and Reed signed another contract with us..."

"It's impossible! I'll have a look!" Krista's face suddenly darkened. She couldn't believe it. She put down her coffee and rushed to the financial office to check the accounts. After all, she didn't believe Jayna could complete this task. She once went to Reed and asked for money, but Reed didn't even see her. In her opinion, it was impossible to get the money back. How could Jayna do something she had failed to do?

However, the next moment, when she saw the money in the account with her own eyes, she was completely dumbfounded. When she was about to say something, the money in the account suddenly increased. From time to time, they received hundreds of thousands of dollars or one million dollars...

"Well... What's going on?" Krista pointed to the figures on the account in shock and asked the accountant. The accountant checked it in a hurry, but he was confused.

When the accountant wanted to say something, those female employees who flattered Krista just now broke in. As soon as they entered the office, they said to Krista anxiously, "Miss Brown, dozens of presidents came to our company. They all took contracts and said they wanted to talk about cooperation with us. Some even said that they had paid the deposit..."

"What? Why don't you greet them? Forget it. I'll meet them in person. Hurry up..." Although Krista couldn't understand why so many presidents suddenly came to talk about cooperation with them, she didn't mind. All she knew was that she was going to make a big fortune. After she signed all the contracts, no one could shake her position in the company anymore, and she would get a large amount of money as a percentage and bonus.

Thinking like this, Krista was ecstatic. As she walked out, she arranged her clothes hurriedly. The smile on her face became brighter and brighter. She ran to the reception and welcomed the presidents who held contracts in their hands...

"Welcome! Welcome to Brown Group! We're glad to cooperate with you! Please come in..." With a happy smile, Krista led the presidents into the company.

Those presidents rushed in while smiling. Most of them didn't know Krista and Jayna. The presidents who had rushed to Krista's front said to her in a hurry, "Miss Brown, we don't want to waste your time and we have something important to do. Shall we sign the contract first?" The presidents handed the pens and contracts to Krista.

Krista glanced at the contracts roughly and found that the conditions given by them were much better than she had expected. She grinned and signed the contracts one by one. Then she handed the contracts to the presidents. Those whose contracts had been signed were soon squeezed out of the crowd. The next moment, more presidents took the contracts and pens and wanted Krista to sign her name.

"Ha-ha... Don't be in a hurry. I'll sign the contracts one by one. I have plenty of time. Take your time. Don't worry..." Krista said hurriedly with a smile while signing the contracts. She grinned from ear to ear. She was going to make a big fortune. The female employees who flattered her in the office were excited. After all, after Krista signed the contracts, they would be responsible to execute the orders. They would win a lot in prize money, wouldn't they? Therefore, they smiled more happily and served tea to the presidents enthusiastically.

However, a voice came out from behind the next moment. Suddenly, the presidents who treated Krista enthusiastically just now all looked gloomy.

"Wait! She's not Jayna! Who's Krista? We're here to see Jayna! Where's Jayna?"

Those presidents frowned at Krista at the same time and asked, "Who are you? Aren't you Jayna?"

Krista's smile froze in an instant. Hearing that they came here for Jayna, she went berserk and said with displeasure, "Jayna hasn't joined the company yet. I'm Krista, the sales director of Brown

Group! Am I not qualified to sign the contract with you? Huh?"

After Krista finished her words arrogantly, everyone was stunned. Those presidents sneered with disdain and looked at Krista as if she was an idiot.

"Ha-ha... How dare a sales director talk to us like this? Are you out of your head?" A president tore up the contract and said.

"Ha-ha... Do you think you're comparable to Jayna? You're a woman utterly without self-knowledge! How dare you! Hurry up and ask Jayne to come here, or we won't sign the contracts!" Another boss said disdainfully.

Krista's face turned pale in an instant. She clenched her fists. At this time, she suddenly reacted that these presidents were on an equal footing with her grandfather. Even her grandfather had to be polite to them when he met them, not to mention her. Just now, she got angry because they favored Jayna. At this time, she didn't dare to raise her head...

What a shame! She thought these presidents came to her, which was so embarrassing. At this time, even the female employees who flattered her immediately stood away from her. They seemed to be thinking about something, and they were all shocked. These presidents all came to meet Jayna!

Just then, a president suddenly roared, "Where's William? Ask him to come out to see me! How dare he! I came here to sign a contract with Jayna, but he asked an unimportant woman to greet me!"

"That's right! Ask William to come out! If he doesn't give us a satisfactory explanation, let's wait and see!" Another president felt he had been tricked by Krista and yelled.

At this time, an old man stumbled downstairs from the president's office. It was William who looked dumbfounded. After he went to the hall, he immediately said to the two presidents with an

apologetic smile, "Oh, Mr. Swift, Mr. Harris, why didn't you tell me before you came? I'm so surprised. Please calm down. I don't know what happened. Why don't we have a meal in Pasoland Hotel later? It's my treat. I'll apologize to you in person..."

At this time, Calvin Swift, who was a little older than him, snorted coldly and said, "William, today we came here to sign contracts with Jayna. You won't refuse our cooperation, will you? We are all sincere. We've paid the deposit, and we were waiting for Jayna to sign the contracts. But who's Krista? Is she qualified to sign the contracts? She even spoke to us arrogantly! How dare she!"

Shawn Harris slapped the torn contract on Krista's face and said to William furiously, "William, we have known each other for a long time. Are you fooling me around right now? You asked a sales director to teach me a lesson! Tell me directly if you don't want to cooperate with me!"

"That's right... How unlucky I am! How dare a sales director vent her anger on me?"

"Humph..."

"If it weren't for Jayna, I would never come to such a small company! This is too much..."

Although William didn't quite understand what had happened, he had guessed something. The next moment, he turned around and yelled at Krista with a gloomy face, "What have you done? I'll get even with you later! Apologize right now! Hurry up!"

Krista was so frightened that she shivered. She was on the verge of tears, and she immediately lowered her head and said to those presidents with grievances, "I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have looked down on you. I'm sorry..."

Those presidents snorted and didn't pay attention to Krista. Instead, they all looked at William and waited for him to explain to them.

William was furious. He didn't want to know how Jayna got to convince these presidents, but he knew he was going to make a big fortune.

However, Krista almost ruined the cooperation just now! Thinking of this, William was mad and anxious. He roared at Krista, "Look at what you've done! You almost screwed it up! You're no longer the sales director in the future. Now I don't want to see you! Get out of here! Get out..."

Krista went deathly pale, and tears ran down her face. However, William didn't pay attention to her and went to the conference room with the presidents.

In the conference room, William said, "I'm sorry, my dear friends. Jayna hasn't arrived yet. Why don't I sign the contracts? But I promise you that all the credit will go to Jayna. What do you think?"

At this time, Calvin said, "Alright, but let's make it clear first. Mr. Brown, don't regret your words after signing the contract. We came here for Jayna. In the future, only she can be responsible for the cooperation project between our companies. Is this okay?"

William immediately patted his chest and said seriously, "Please rest assured! I will never do that, and I will appoint Jayna the director of the Marketing Department right away! She'll be responsible for the cooperation between us!"

Hearing William's words, everyone was relieved. They hadn't had a rest since Eden met them last night. They couldn't afford to offend Eden. Besides, according to Eden, Jayna seemed to have a very powerful backer. Eden was a man of great influence in Pasoland City, but even he listened to the powerful man. They didn't dare to imagine how influential the man was...

They signed the contracts with William and left. After they left, William frowned deeply and murmured, "Jayna? Is someone helping her behind her back? I have to investigate this matter. It's strange..."
