After saying that, Valeria hung up the phone, and the secretary stared at the resigning executives in
confusion.
"She asked me to approve of your resignation letters and let you guys leave.She will immediately
replace the empty positions with her own workers."
The executives looked at each other and asked, "Did she really say that?"
"Yes! Why would I lie to you?"
"Isn't that too mean of her? How dare she look down on us? Let's see how the company will operate
without us!"
"Yes, let's see how the company will operate without us.She might even come crying to us then!"
The secretary awkwardly interrupted their conversation and said, "So should I start approving your
resignation papers?"
"You are not qualified to do so! We'll wait here for her, they said angrily.This was too annoying.They
thought that Valeria would ask them to stay, but she approved their resignations without even showing
up.These people had been in the company for so many years, and they were well qualified.What was
the point of leaving like this? So, they didn't leave either and waited outside the office for her to come
back.While waiting, they called Ronald to report the situation.When Ronald heard that Valeria approved
of their resignation without even showing up, he was perplexed at what she had in mind.He felt that
something was wrong.It was the same as yesterday.
Valeria had succeeded in her plans without even showing up.
Was the same thing happening today? After he had gone back last night, he finally figured out what
had truly happened yesterday.
She must have secretly changed the official seal after knowing his plan.
He had been a complete mess yesterday, but what could she do today? She couldn't find work
replacements in such a short time, and the company's stocks had fallen because of the change in
personnel.
She should have been worried sick now.
Did she say such things out of anger? Was she at her wit's end? That wasn't right...
She still had Lamont helping her.
Did Lamont come up with a solution? If he was still the same Lamont as back then, then Ronald
believed that he would definitely have found a solution.
But now, Lamont had been driven out of the company by Archer, so how could he find a way? Did he
go to beg Archer for help? Even if he was willing to ask Archer for help, would Archer help him? Back
then, Archer could not wait to mess with Lamont.
How could he help him now? Therefore, the possibility for Lamont to look for Archer for help was zero.
William was the only possible backup for Valeria.
Ronald knew that William was a person who was ignorant and incompetent.
Other than that, Hayden had always had full control over the Howard family matters.
Other than using his personal funds, William probably wouldn't be able to be much help.
The Brownard Group's problem was not solvable with just a small sum of money.
Even if William had a good relationship with Michael and Richard, what could they do? The money
needed was not a sum that was borrowable in a short period of time.
Richard and Michael were not stupid either.
Even if they had a good relationship with Michael, it was unlikely that they would help Valeria so
generously.
Ronald thought about it and felt that Valeria did not have a good backup plan.
He always thought that her actions of being absent or late to serious events were not beneficial to
herself.
He ordered his trusted executives to continue to wait for her to show up in the company.
It would be best to have a large number of employees resign while waiting for Valeria.
This way, she would not be able to keep her cool anymore.
Ronald's subordinates immediately began to persuade their staff to resign in order to threaten Valeria.
Dozens of people agreed to resign, and the growing numbers caused the personnel department to call
Valeria for her orders anxiously.
Valeria repeated what she had said in the beginning: Approve of their resignation.
The employees who agreed to resign thought that she would plead for them to stay, but that was not
the case.
As a result, the personnel department began to approve of the resignations.
Those who handed in their resignation first had no time to withdraw, so the people after them realized
that it was a bad situation, so they all retreated.
After all, they had families to support.
If they were to quit their current jobs without securing a new job, they would be at a dead-end
themselves.
The remaining employees did not agree to resign anymore, and Ronald's trusted executives began to
feel uneasy.
The salary offered at the Brownard Group was quite high.
If Valeria really approved their resignation and told them to leave, could they find such a job with such
good conditions in such a short period of time? They were waiting for Ronald to rehire them when he
came back.
But would he be able to come back, though? They were different from ordinary employees.
They didn't need to worry about their house or car loans, but they had high spendings due to their high
salaries.
If they couldn't find such a high paying job elsewhere, they would be in trouble.
More than a dozen people started having doubts in their heart.
After lunch, Valeria finally arrived with Lamont and Braelynn by her side.
Seeing that several of Ronald's employees were still in the office, she scowled and questioned the
secretary, "Didn't I tell you to approve of their resignation and tell them to get out of here? Why are they
still here?"
She did not beg nor question their reasons and immediately asked them to leave.
Ronald's employees had their blood boiling.
"Valeria, you don't know anything.Do you really think you can manage a company? Listen, the
company will be in trouble after we leave!"
"Yes, the stocks have fallen, and all the executives have resigned.Just wait, you'll be bankrupt soon!"
She laughed, "You think too highly of yourselves, don't you? The world goes on without you.Our
company doesn't need people like you.Miss Saunders, please officially approve of their resignation with
the company's seal and get them out.All of you should hurry up and complete the resignation
procedures.I bet you will regret your decisions after leaving this office!"
"We won't regret it.You are the one who will regret it! Just wait for us to issue a notice immediately so
that the company wont be able to recruit people."
They were angry and anxious.
Braelynn stacked the approved resignation papers and put the cap on the official seal.
"All of you, get out!"
They left with their heads down, and the personnel department quickly went through the resignation
procedures for them.
At first, they thought that they could crush her with their strength in numbers.
However, when she showed no reaction and even agreed to their threats, they felt empty.
Some people began to call and report to Ronald.
When he heard that Valeria had let them go without saying anything, he also had no choice but to
comfort them.
"In that case, you all should rest.Take it as a vacation and have a good rest.I'll hire you again when I
come back.By the way, remember to issue a resignation statement as a group to taint her reputation
even more."
The subordinates had no choice but to bear the consequences by themselves.
Since they had to leave anyway, they would slander her before leaving.So, they gathered together and
discussed it for a while.
They issued a resignation statement and belittled her.
They stated that Valeria used evil means to force the chairman of the company, Ronald, to leave.
Ronald had to agree to her request for the prosperity and harmony of the company.
To eliminate outsiders and people who went against her, she messed with the higher executives.
More than a dozen people posted their statements on the forum and then left the company.
When they walked out of the company building, they saw the security guards at the door.
