GoodReadRaymond was far away in Bomsville and had lost his memory, and Scarlett knew it was useless to miss him.
They were not completely unfamiliar now, but he still could not remember anything about Scarlett.
Scarlett didn't want to put too much pressure on him, so after returning to Jakesville, she had barely taken the initiative to contact him.
Their chat records were mainly greetings or about the weather, which seemed meaningless.
Scarlett had been busy with the affairs of Tenton and Mornet, so she had had no time to feel blue.

Perking herself up, Scarlett looked back at the email on the screen.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and Scarlett said, "Come in." As soon as she finished speaking, the door of the office was pushed open, and Frank led Mr. Maddox in.
Seeing Mr. Maddox, Scarlett couldn't help raising her eyebrows and then said, "Mr. Maddox, what brought you here?" Mr. Maddox had made trouble for Scarlett at the previous meeting. She had been in a bad mood then, so she had directly asked Frank, who had been in charge of the project, to hand it over to Mr. Maddox. Last Friday, Mr.
Maddox screwed the project up.
Therefore, at the regular meeting this morning, Scarlett proposed to remove Mr. Maddox from his current position in Tenton. Except for Mr. Maston, who acted evilly in collusion with Mr. Maddox, other shareholders all agreed.
With so many shares of Tenton, Scarlett could be said to be the decision-maker here. Moreover, the other shareholders had all agreed with her, so Mr. Maddox would be fired for sure.
Scarlett knew what Mr. Maddox came for.
Mr. Maddox was in his 40s and had worked for Tenton for 20 years. After Old Mr. Shaw had passed away, he had finally become one of the executives. He hadn't expected that he would be dismissed so soon, so he was not reconciled.
"Ms. Reed, | have something to tell you." Scarlett was smart, so she knew Mr.
Maddox was going to betray Mr. Maston.

She glanced at Frank and said, "Frank, the plan of your project needs to be revised." Frank nodded, took the document over, and walked out of the office wittily.
After the door was closed, only Scarlett and Mr. Maddox were left in the office.
Mr. Maddox took out an envelope from his pocket and said, "Ms. Reed, this is a photo of Mr. Maston meeting with Ryker. | also have the evidence that Mr. Maston and Ryker embezzled Tenton's public funds." Scarlett didn’t take the photo out of the envelope but smiled, "You're a smart person, so | won't beat around the bush." Scarlett paused for a second and continued, "Everyone is well aware of your relationship with Mr. Maston. This morning, Mr. Maston tried his best to prevail over all dissenting views for you. You two have cooperated well with each other for many years, right? Why did you suddenly decide to turn the gun round?" Mr. Maddox didn't expect Scarlett to ask such a question. He kept silent for a while and said, "Ms. Reed, I'm almost fifty now, and | don't have a lot of shares of Tenton. To be honest, | know | can't get that position.
Abraham is a cunning man, and he has always used me as a tool. If he had not asked me to do that, I would not have fallen into a dilemma now. The dice were cast last Friday. Abraham was just acting in front of me this morning. I've been thinking a lot these days. I've worked for Tenton for 20 years, and it's like my second home.
Abraham has met a lot of foreign guests recently, so I'm afraid he will have a big move soon. | have been used to a peaceful life for years. | fought for that position because | wanted to satisfy my vanity after working here for 20 years. But if Abraham wants to harm Tenton, | will definitely stop him. Even though I'm merely a shareholder now, | don't want to lose my dividends! Don't worry, | won't ask for the moon or have any complaints if you dismiss me from my post. | just have a small request. | have an illegitimate son who has just gotten his PhD in Bomsville. He had been engaged in the research of this area for years. Ms. Reed, could you please let him join our R&D department as a group leader?"
