Cosset You Forever

Chapter 257 How Many Banks does This Guy Own

When Lola finally woke up, she found herself again on a plane flying to A Country. She had been on this occasion for two times.

Even Lola herself was confused at this. Did she really sleep so soundly that she felt nothing when Harry dressed her and carried her out of the manor? Or maybe it was because Harry looked after her in a very gentle way.

The plane landed on the backyard of the Li villa, where Lola got off with her legs already shivering.

She endured the pain and didn't go to the hospital yesterday. The pain seemed to be getting worse today, so she went directly to the garage and drove to the hospital at once after she got off the plane. She was bracing for the worst...

......

She registered and asked for a specialist treatment, paid the medical expenses, and went back to the company.

Lola sat in the deputy CEO office, and tried to refresh herself by closing her eyes. After a few minutes, she took out her phone, took a photo of her medical record and sent it to Harry. She was gnashing her teeth in anxiety.

"Harry! You must reimburse ten times the medical expenses!"

In mere seconds, her phone received a message. It indicated that Harry had transferred 50 million dollars to her......

What? Wow! The medical expenses only cost her 500 dollars. She just teased him into paying ten times the original amount and that would just cost 5, 000 dollars. But he gave her 50 million dollars instead! How many banks does this guy own?

It was such a large amount of money that she can squander the money for many years even if she does not go to work.

However, her melting heart calmed down when she remember that Harry gave her a shock yesterday at the meeting. He straight up embarrassed her.

Sitting up straight, Lola called Leo on the internal line, "Please ask Joshua from the Design Department to come to my office!"

She would solve the recent three problems one by one. She hoped to finish and solve these issues today.

She felt guilty of it because she thought that she was a bit negligent of the happenings around her.

She determined to rectify the company's ethos and punish the black sheep.

Joshua came over right away. It seemed like he was in a bad mood.

"Miss Li!" Joshua greeted Lola politely as he knew clearly about the reason why Lola called him in.

A funny person suddenly became so courteous. Lola felt a little unaccustomed about this version of Joshua.

"Have a seat. I bet you know the reason I called you in.", said Lola. She stood up, poured him a glass of water and placed it in front of him.

"Thank you, Miss Li. And yes I know that." Everyone in the Design Department ignored him and gave him a hard time for what happened recently.

Lola sat opposite Joshua. It was the first time that they had talked in such a calm and serious manner.

"I can give you an opportunity to explain. So tell me everything and don't you dare hide something from me.."

Joshua seriously looked at Lola and said, "Miss Li, do you believe in me? Do you trust me?" In his opinion, he can explain to her only if Lola was willing to believe him. Otherwise, what was the point of explaining this to her?

Lola nodded without hesitation and answered, "Although I don't contact you very often, I believe you did not do this because you have a similar character to my brother who is very honest."

Looking at Lola, Joshua was so moved by her words since she was the only one to believe in him. It means a lot and he knows that he owes this woman a lot.

Joshua returned to the Design Department after they intently talked for about an hour in the office.

"Oh, the thief has come back from the CEO office!" Seeing Joshua walking out, a male colleague mocked him without mercy. He was getting used to it, anyway. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Another male colleague followed suit. "I think that the thief has hooked up with Miss Li. You're getting rid of your dues by cheating, right?"

"Ha ha ha!" Several male colleagues that gathered in the tea room laughed bluntly.

Clenching his fists, Joshua flushed in anger because his patience had reached its end! He was innocent! Why did they keep on insulting him! Why didn't they try to investigate first? He could bear the insults before, but they had gone too far this time! They must have inner motives to say that he hooked up with Miss Li!

He darted forward. When he was about to smack his colleague with his fist, a voice behind immediately stopped him.

"Joshua!", Lola shouted at him. She had already predicted that many people would gossip if she called Joshua to the office.

It happened exactly as she expected.

Seeing Lola, a few people in the design department became so nervous and immediately became respectful. "Miss Li!" After the greetings, they proceeded to their seats, carrying their cups.

"Stop!", Lola called out.

Standing still with their heads bowed down, they were so scared because they thought that they are doomed.

Lola took a few steps forward, pointed at one of the people and sternly asked, "What's your name? Who told you Joshua hooked up with me?"

The pointed man faltered out a few words, "Miss Li, I'm Chris Dong."

Standing in front of him, Lola looked at him with cold determination and said in a harsh tone, "Now I would like to announce to everybody that SL Group considers Chris Dong from the Design Department to have been possessing poor qualities because he spread rumors and plotted riots. The financial department will clear your salary and you can get out of here now!"

"Sorry! Sorry! Miss Li, I apologize! It was my fault. I swear it will not happen again. Please forgive me!" Chris Dong begged for Lola's mercy. Although he was only a minor designer assistant in SL Group, he was well paid. He didn't want to lose this high-paying job which took him so much effort to get.

Lola became angrier when she saw his begging for mercy. Tall and big as he was, his begging was not manly at all. Not to mention the way he gossips around.

"I will not change the decision whatever you say. May this be a lesson to all of you. Get out of here! Now!" Lola walked across the tea room. Several employees entered the design department office, leaving no chance for Chris Dong to beg her again.

Seeing Lola walk in, people who stretched out their heads to see what was happening sat back in their seat to work again.

Lola roamed around the design department and found out that the manager was not in the office. Then she decided to solve the problems by herself!

"Dear colleagues, please give me a few minutes of your attention. Recently, there was a rumor that Joshua from the Design Department stole drafts from the company. I hope everyone will not discuss it again and mind your own business. The truth will eventually come to light since I will let the police intervene to investigate this matter. Otherwise, you will have the same result as Chris Dong......"

Lola's voice sounded oddly resonant in the room. Everybody adored her for her confidence and nobleness.

What a heroine she was! No wonder Mr. Si married her. But why did they break up? How come he gave up such a charming lady? Everyone was puzzled.

Lola also gave a great deal of encouragement to them. After that, the design department greeted her with enthusiastic applause.

As soon as she was back from the design department, Lola called in the head of the financial department and the personnel department manager respectively, made a corresponding punishment, and let the secretary post an announcement.

Lola never dealt with the employees in person before. This time, she decided to personally handle the issue in front of them. She solved the issues properly without any mercy and restraint.

The colleagues talked about Lola for the whole day. They thought that she looked dignified and respectable just like Mr. Si. They understood that they must behave well under Lola's eyes from now on.

In fact, Lola dealt with these matters in accordance with Harry's advice because she thought it was very efficient.

Maybe that was why people found Harry's style in her actions. She might thank him for this some other time.
