Scarlett didn't get much sleep last night. Although she didn't get up until 8 a m., she still felt unwell.
But she had an important meeting at Tenton in the morning. She couldn't be absent.
Although she wore a smile on her face during the meeting, her gaze was cold.
Abraham and sother shareholders always made things difficult for Scarlett at such a meeting. Scarlett usually didn't bother to pay any attention to them. They were like clowns in her eyes.

Maddox, is that all?" Cain always lost his interest to provoke Scarlett because of her indifferent attitude. Although he tried to pick on her, she didn't care about it at all.
They didn't know if Scarlett felt annoyed by their obstructions, but they felt disturbed by her attitude.
It was obvious that Scarlett was in a bad mood today.
But Abraham and Cain were keen on making things difficult for Scarlett. Now that they knew that she was in a bad mood, they wouldn't miss the chance.
Cain started to pick on Scarlett again.
The plan was made by Frank’s group. Although it was not perfect, it was practical.
However, Cain questioned many aspects of the plan. Scarlett looked at him with a faint smile. After he finished speaking, she said, "Mr. Maddox, your suggestions are great. Now that you have so many ideas, it's suitable for you to take charge of the project." Before Cain said something, she glanced at Frank and said, "The meeting is over." Cain was dumbfounded. | will take charge of the project?" 'If | fail to get the project, Scarlett will seize the chance to demote me." Thinking of that, Cain panicked and said," Ms. Reed, | think..." Scarlett heard what Cain had said as she stood up. She interrupted him immediately, "By the way, Mr. Maddox, | would like to remind you that you should hand in the plan of the project the day after tomorrow. You would better go back and spend ton the plan instead of wasting there." After saying that, Scarlett paused slightly." Also, this project is very important. And it is one of the company's key projects for the first half of this year. Mr. Maddox, if you're responsible for this project, since you have worked for Tenton for more than twenty years, you should know what to do next." If Cain had a sense of shame, he should resign. If Cain was shameless, Scarlett had ways to kick Cain out.
As soon as Cain heard Scarlett's words, he panicked. He realized that his plan backfired.
Not to mention the employees in Tenton, even non-Tenton employees knew how important this project was. As one of Tenton's original management staff and one of Tenton’s shareholders, how could Cain not know! If the project failed, not to mention Scarlett would not let him off the hook, and the other shareholders would not let him off the hook. And his title as manager would be removed. Then, he would have to go hand spend the rest of his life on dividends.

As he watched Scarlett walk away, Cain's face went pale. Then, he subconsciously looked at Abraham.
"Abraham, what should | do?" Abraham gave Cain a disgusted look." What are you afraid of? She could even do that. And you've been in Teuton for over twenty years. Are you not as good as her, the outsider?" After all, it was not Abraham who needed to take this pressure, so it was easy for him to say these words.
Hearing his words, Cain felt very disappointed.
Cain had been on Abraham's side since Raymond's accident. And Cain wanted to becthe vice president when Abraham was promoted.
However, Cain didn’t expect that Abraham would want to get rid of him before he was promoted, which made Cain feel very sad.
After returning to the office, Frank was rarely sure what Scarlett was thinking. '* Ms. Reed, are we really going to leave this project alone?" Scarlett had calmed down a bit. She looked up at Frank. "What do you think?" Hearing Scarlett's words, Frank understood at once. He quickly nodded. "I got it, Ms. Reed." Frank took a look at Scarlett. Thinking of the consequences of Cain losing the project, Frank couldn't help but think that Scarlett's move was really brilliant.
It seemed that an angry Scarlett was not to be messed with.
