After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 118

“You seem to know Charles very well.” Theodore had a meaningful look on his face.

Oscar didn't say anything.

“How do you have time to get to know him?” Theodore asked.

Oscar still didn't answer him.

“You have been wanting to take his girlfriend for a long time, right?” Theodore was suddenly sure.

Oscar glanced at Theodore. “Cut the crap. Just do what I say.”

“…” Now he started to complain about his crap.

He was the one supporting and comforting him in those hard days.

...

As soon as Hannah walked out of the hall, she saw Jimmy waiting for her at the gate.

“Mrs Wells, starting today, I will be your driver and bodyguard, and I will protect you any time.” Jimmy was respectful.

Hannah smiled. “Thanks.”

Jimmy didn't do anything about her friendliness.

They got into the car and went to the Cooper building.

She went into the office and Rose followed her.

Rose was surprised when she saw the man next to Hannah.

“Oh, my bodyguard, Jimmy,” Hannah said.

Rose was even more surprised when she heard this.

Why on earth did she need a bodyguard when she was working in her family company?

“My secretary, Rose,” Hannah said, ignoring her surprised look.

“Hello.” Rose reached out her hand.

After all, shaking hands was a common courtesy in the workplace.

But Jimmy ignored her.

He just stood there and pretended not to see it.

Rose put down her hands in embarrassment, turned her eyes to Hannah, and contained her emotions. “I've tracked down the leader of the protest of the sales group. It's Mason Porter, the head of inventory analysis of the sales department.”

“Mason Porter?” Hannah mumbled, trying to remember who this man was.

“He's been working in the company for twenty years but didn't really accomplish much. Because he is a senior here, he seldom shows respect for other people. When Jane was there, he would be respectful to her. And he could yell at the director of sales as much as he wanted. He was pretty upset that you moved him to the support center of the sales department. Besides, you didn't give him the position as a supervisor. So, he encouraged all the transferred employees to protest against it.”

“Even though he has been around here for a long time, he could not be able to manage to get everybody in his hands. There must be something fishy about him being respectful to jane instead of the director.”

“Not really, Jane is a member of your family while the director is just an employee. Anyone who knows that will know who to please.”

“But yelling at the director?” Hannah was skeptical.

Rose nodded and thought that it did make sense.

“Mason should have known someone in senior leadership well.” Hannah concluded, “He had a back. That's why he could go on the rampage.”

Rose agreed. “OK, I'll ask around.”

“No, I'll take care of that. I have other work for you.” Hannah said.

“Okay.” Rose was respectful.

“I've looked through some projects that are not going on well in our sales department these days. I don't want to spend too much time on projects that have already been in full swing. After all, they won't bring us any more unexpected profit. In my opinion, what needs to be solved urgently are those problems that have been dragging on for a long time, such as that unfinished building and Light Building.” Hannah handed Rose a file and continued. “Sort out everything on these two projects by the end of the day. We'll have a meeting tomorrow at 10 a.m.”

“Yes.” Rose nodded and left. “Black coffee for you?”

“Yes, thank you.” Hannah replied and then asked, “What do you want, Jimmy?”

“The water is fine.”

Hannah was speechless.

“To stay awake and keep perfect physical condition.”

Hannah thought Jimmy could be too serious sometimes.

Of course, she wouldn't break his habits. “Get him a glass of water,” she said to Rose.

“Yes.” Rose left and Hannah also started to work.

Then she thought about it and called someone. “Mr Richards.”

“Ms Hannah, what can I do for you?” He was very polite.

“Do you know Mason?”

“I've heard of him.”

“Is there anyone he knows well in our senior leadership or the shareholders on our board?” Hannah asked straightly.

Instead of asking Rose to spend a lot of time on this matter, she could ask their HR directly.

“I don't know much about that. All I know is that he has a bad personality and is quite arrogant.”

“But he'll listen to Jane.”

“So you suspect that Mason was connected to someone high up who was familiar with Roger Cooper?” Percy immediately understood what Hannah meant.

“That's right.”

“I am gonna need some time to look it up,” Percy said.

“No, no need to do that,” Hannah said.

She called Percy only because he might know the inside story so she didn't have to waste more energy trying to find it out, but if not, she wouldn't let him waste his time either

“What if I fired him?”

“Um, you are new here…” Percy didn't really agree with this idea.

He thought this idea was too bold.

Firing an employee without a good reason might harm the company's reputation.

“Can you think of a better way to get everyone to listen to our transfer arrangements?”

“Not yet.” Percy had to admit it.

“So we need someone to make an example of.”

“If you used this strategy well, there will be a great profit, if not, you will be in great trouble,” Percy warned her.

“Okay, thanks.” Hannah was clear with that. “I know my place.”

“I'm all for it.” Percy decided to do as she said.

“Within half an hour, you need to get the word out that Mason is fired. I want everyone to know about it.”

“Yes.”

Hannah said no more.

She put down her phone and continued to work.

An hour later or maybe less than an hour, the door was suddenly flung open.

Hannah looked up and she saw Mason. He was furious.

“How can you fire me? You have no reason to do that. I've worked here for 20 years and you just kicked me out? I'm not letting you leave this office until you give me a good reason today!”

He looked terrible and threatened her.

Hannah suddenly felt grateful that Oscar gave her a bodyguard.

She saw that Jimmy had reached him. If Mason made a move, he would get him.

And that was why Hannah could say that out loud. “As the heir of the Cooper family, I surely can fire anyone if I want to.”
