"I believe in your abilities. I promise that I will take care of this matter."
Without any hesitation, Justin Battleson made this declaration and indicated his stance.
With Justin’s assurance, the heavy stone in Coco’s heart finally dropped. She looked at Charlotte Thompson with starry eyes.
This naïve young girl didn’t notice any peculiarity in Justin’s expression.
Coco’s mind was filled with the excitent of staying by Charlotte’s side, she could hardly contain her thrill.
Charlotte and Coco followed Justin to Cindy’s office.
Charlotte and Justin usually wore an aura of power, making them seem intimidating.
Having these two powerful figures backing her, Coco grew confident. She glared at Cindy defiantly.
Cindy was bewildered at the rare sight of Mr. Battleson gracing the cramped office.
Once she snapped out of it, a fond smile instantly appeared on her face.
"Do you believe that Charlotte is incompetent and want to fire Coco? Is that what you’re saying?"
Justin Battleson was always straightforward, asking scathing questions. His words fell into Cindy’s ears like a deafening reprimand.
She unsconsciously clenched her fists.
She didn’t imagine Charlotte could pull such a move, she brought Justin into play.
Cindy glared at Charlotte angrily, and then softened her gaze towards Justin.
"Mr. Battleson, actually, the project under Charlotte’s leadership is unfinished, so..."
Cindy tried to justify her position, but was abruptly cut off.
"Who gave you the authority to fire the assistant to the design director? The people I sign can only be managed by . Likewise, the people she brings in can only be managed by her."
Justin Battleson chid in rcilessly, leaving Cindy without a rebuttal, utterly humiliated.
Cindy stood still, speechless and embarrassed.
She was completely lost.
Previously, Justin Battleson had never interfered in such matters. What had changed?
Whatever, it was her loss for holding a grudge now.
"I was too impulsive with this matter and didn’t consider the consequences carefully." Cindy looked down at her shoes, struggling to hold back.
The hard words she had to swallow, "Mr. Battleson, it won’t happen again."
She knew to save her strength when the ga is not yet lost.
Having survived the workplace for so long, she understood this principle well.
She could adapt as needed, certainly not willing to sacrifice her future for a mont of pleasure.
"Coco will continue to stay on, without your approval, no one can make her leave."
Mr. Battleson voiced these words to Charlotte, his tone resolute and commanding.
Coco, a young girl not yet exposed to the world, was instantly smitten, almost showing hearts in her eyes.
She truly didn’t expect the company CEO would stand up for her.
Though it was due to Charlotte’s influence, it indirectly benefited her, rounded off it was also for her sake.
However, Charlotte was unaffected by this show of "bravado", she even found it a bit disdainful.
She thought it wasn’t fitting for Justin’s character and status, it seed sowhat... outdated.
But oh well, it was quite effective. At least from now on Coco didn’t need to tiptoe around anyone.
With her goal achieved, Charlotte was not one to drag things out unnecessarily.
She glanced warningly at Cindy.
Then she prepared to leave with Coco.
As Charlotte left, Cindy sneered inwardly: Charlotte was just relying on the intimidating presence of Mr. Battleson for the mont, but could she truly cause any disturbance?
Once Mr. Battleson left, in this design departnt, who wasn’t at her rcy?
