When the elevator doors opened, Jimmy led Leanna to the entrance of an office and introduced the
place. “Miss McKinney, this used to be Mr. Crossley’s office. All the files are already there.”
Leanna glanced at it. “I don’t like the layout. Can you alter it by today?”
He probably hadn’t expected her to say that, which was why he froze for a moment. “T-Today?”
Freddie drawled, “If you think that it’s too soon, I can suggest a way.”
Jimmy said instinctively, “And that is?”
“You can ask Mr. Pearson about that. He has always been effective in resolving those kinds of things.”
Jimmy was speechless. How can he threaten me like this?
He wiped his damp forehead and fell silent for a while. He had initially planned to intimidate Leanna yet
now, he had not only failed but was instead intimidated in return. The way she wants Mr. Crossley’s
original office refurbished as soon as she arrives shows that she’s about to take his place and gain an
advantage. How ambitious of her! Jimmy now realized that getting Leanna to come over to the
Crossley Group was probably not a good decision.
As Leanna heard no reply from Jimmy, she glanced sideways at him. “Do you have an issue with it?”
Even Freddie had looked at him.
Jimmy quickly straightened his back. “No! Of course not. I’ll send the order now. It will be completed
today even if we have to work overtime.”
Leanna made a noise of assent and turned around. “Then please ask someone to send those files to
the meeting room.”
“Sure thing!” Jimmy answered before glancing at the two men behind him. They both understood
instantly; one went to get the files while the other went to arrange the refurbishment of the office.
Then, he added, “The meeting room is this way. After you, Miss McKinney.”
After both Leanna and Freddie headed forward, Jimmy summoned another assistant and murmured
something to him before frowning. “Go quickly!”
The assistant left hurriedly.
The files had arrived by the time Leanna entered the meeting room. She looked around the space and
glanced at the time—it was 9.40AM. It didn’t matter that Jimmy’s people arrived. She had already said
her piece, which was that if they were absent or late, they would be fired. What she was worried about
now were the directors who had left the Crossley Group. At that thought, she sighed, feeling extremely
tense.
Freddie dragged a chair to sit beside her and he started to go through the files. Jimmy, who had just
entered, quickly said, “M-Mr. Sutton, these files regarding the internal financial situation and project
data shouldn’t be read by an outsider.”
Leanna answered lightly, “I employed him and he’s also the law advisor I got for the Crossley Group.
His viewing of them may be considered as me doing so and besides, the Crossley Group’s current
situation won’t warrant someone stealing any business secrets. Or do you not trust him?”
Jimmy fumed but did not dare say anything. Freddie Sutton might only be a lawyer, but his family was
famous in Highside, so Jimmy would never dare offend him. In the end, he could only silently take a
seat on Leanna’s left.
As soon as he sat down, she said, “Mr. Ollander, please get another seat.”
Jimmy looked annoyed. “I sat here when Mr. Crossley was still working here, Miss McKinney…”
She smiled. “Don’t misunderstand me. You’re merely blocking is present.”
Jimmy gritted his teeth, expression stony as he moved one seat away from her. The sun shone into the
room and the rays landed right in front of her.
Soon, Raymond arrived as well and he greeted everyone leaned her cheek against her hand as she
checked the time.
Ten more minutes…
The seconds ticked by with both Jimmy and Raymond remaining quiet. The room was only filled with
the sound of Freddie flipping through the papers. Whenever he moved or made a slight sound, Jimmy
stiffened, feeling extremely paranoid that the lawyer would ask him something. Luckily, he had already
gotten rid of all the accounts linked to him. While he had garnered huge losses and many accounts
couldn’t be tallied, all that was not his problem. He only needed to blame everything on Leroy.
When there were only two minutes left, the rest of the board came in, apologizing for making Leanna
wait even though they looked relaxed. They had arrived before 10.00AM, so she could not say anything
about cutting their salaries.
Jimmy was the one who spoke. “Miss McKinney, it’s 10.00AM and everyone has arrived. Shall the
meeting commence?”
“Not everyone is here,” she enunciated slowly. “Let’s wait for a while longer.”
The board looked at each other, each of them grumbling wait for someone from her side. Is she joking?
Just then, an assistant entered and muttered something in Jimmy’s ear. Jimmy’s expression changed
instantly, and he became gloomy. “Why are they here? Kick them out! How disgusting!”
The assistant had just answered when Leanna said, “I called them here. Let them up.”
Jimmy frowned. “What?”
She repeated patiently, “Ask them to come up here.”
He quickly countered, “Miss McKinney, these are all people who have slandered us in the beginning.
They all have bad reputations and yet, you called them here?”
She looked at him and smiled. “I think that since they were employees of the Crossley Group and this
is the defining moment of the company’s survival, it’s good to have some extra help. What do you think,
Mr. Ollander?”
“I object to that! They brought us so many losses and negative consequences. How can we just let it
pass? I disagree strongly!”
She only replied calmly, “Do you think they brought negative consequences on the Crossley Group or
are you afraid that they will say something they shouldn’t?”
Jimmy’s expression darkened but before he could say anything, Freddie got up and stretched. “My
back hurts after sitting for so long. I’ll go down for a walk and bring them up later.”
“Y-You don’t have to go to all that trouble, Mr. Sutton.” Jimmy gritted his teeth and turned to his
assistant. “Let them up.”
Those people returning to the Crossley Group were already making Jimmy anxious, so how could he
let Freddie be alone with them?
After the assistant left, the other board members couldn’t help but discuss things quietly among
themselves. All they could talk about was how irritated they were by Leanna’s decision to bring the ex-
employees here. Only Raymond was silent, frowning while pondering something.
Freddie ignored them and looked at Leanna. “I’ve read through all the contracts and they don’t have
any issues. It’s just that with such a big corporation as the Crossley Group, why are there so few
contracts when so many projects have been paused?”
The entire meeting room became quiet all at once.
