Chapter 338 – Something Happened to the Project
Blanche Capra had always been cautious and careful in her work, especially when it came to projects with other people, she was even more careful and double-checked every step she took.
As long as there was a mistake, the responsibility would undoubtedly fall on her head.
Not to mention the damage to the Charlie Group’s interests and image.
However, Blanche Capra could not prevent someone from playing a trick on her, no matter how careful she was.
On this day, she went to work as usual, the company’s atmosphere is relatively serious and quiet, but she always felt that today is strange, like the calm before the storm, the employees who passed by her after greeting her, they all looked at her with a kind of pitying eyes.
What’s going on? What had the press been ragging on her about?
Blanche Capra turned back to the group of employees who were cowering in the corner spying on her, wanting to ask them if something had happened.
There was nothing on her face, and they had silently ducked away before she even opened her mouth.
How afraid of her must this be …
It was just a matter of maintaining a serious image that was a must for a president.
As soon as she returned to the office, Blanche Capra saw that the ministers of various departments and their assistants were waiting for her at the door, and she knew that something must have happened.
And it had nothing to do with her, it had to do with the interests of THE Charlie Group.
“What’s going on? Can someone please explain to me how our program can be flawed too?!” Blanche Capra finished and threw the file directly onto the table in anger.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
The subordinate standing in front of the table lowered his head even lower.
“I’m really sorry, we didn’t expect this to happen-”
Blanche Capra stopped their words, “I don’t want an apology, what’s the use of apologizing now, what we want now is to solve the problem, all the funds for this project have somehow been swept away, what do you guys think we should do?”
“…” they all stopped talking.
The Charlie Group invested 20 million in this project, the partner invested 30 million, although the number is not big but at least it is a sum of money, now there is no more money, the Charlie Group how to explain to the project partner.
There are also those project implementation workers and technicians, it is difficult to the Charlie Group out of their own pockets to pay their salaries?
What will the Charlie Group employees eat and use?
It’s no use getting angry or apologizing now. Blanche Capra calmed down a bit after her outburst, and she went through the process one by one, “In which department did this project go wrong?”
Each department shifted the blame to the other as if they were kicking a ball, and no one was willing to admit it.
Once admitted, to face the danger of being dismissed not to mention, there may be misappropriation of public funds arrested.
Who wants to admit is strange.
Blanche Capra saw that they could not discuss a result even if they went on like this, and simply did not count on them, “Forget it, you guys get out of here, you all control the employees underneath you, if something happens here again, I will definitely not spare you.”
“Yes!”
After the ministers left, Blanche Capra’s headache was still not solved, the people from the board of directors were looking for her again later on, and she was getting a headache just thinking about it.
Pressing her brow, Blanche Capra closed her eyes and tried to clear her thoughts.
Seeing how tired she was, her secretary poured her hot tea and brought it to her, “President Capra, this is tea brought from my hometown, it has a calming effect.”
“Thank you, but I’m afraid I don’t have time to stay here and sip my tea slowly right now.” Blanche Capra said as she stood up, she had just started working at the company not long ago and her butt wasn’t even warm.
The secretary handed her her coat, “Where are you going? Do you need me to follow?”
“I’m going to the site for a bit, didn’t they say it was in full swing?” Blanche Capra tsked, “Shouldn’t have agreed to take over that property in Hopkins in the first place, we can just do it ourselves, those old men on the board won’t listen.”
“You don’t need to come along, it’s always dangerous there, I’ll just bring my male assistant.”
“Okay, then you be careful.”
Blanche Capra rushed over to the construction site, she looked out of place for someone in a fancy suit in a place like this with concrete everywhere, because as soon as she got out of the car, someone came after her.
“I heard that all the money for this project has been swept away, so what about our paychecks?”
“President Capra, you promised that you would pay our company in full for the building materials, you can’t go back on your word, my employees are waiting for their paychecks too!”
“President Capra, is it true that the funds were swept away or not? We’ve been working hard here for so long, you can’t just leave it like that.”
“…”
The onslaught of scolding and doubt caused Blanche Capra to panic for a moment, the last time she had faced this predicament was when her romance with York Charlie was not well received by the media.
Last time she had York Charlie to protect her and she was fine, this time was different, she had to do it herself.
“Calm down, you guys,” Blanche Capra shouted several times in a row, her assistant helping her throughout all of this to stop the builders from crowding over to give her a chance to speak, “I’m going to get to the bottom of this and give everyone a full accounting. ”
“What account? What are you going to do?” The other party did not give her any mercy.
It was as if they were under a compulsion right now, incited emotionally, demanding that an account be given right away and that the problem be solved immediately, or else this matter would still become a big deal.
I’m afraid that if this continues, it will develop into an unmanageable situation like a snowball.
Blanche Capra understands all of this, but what she needs to think about right now is how to solve it.
It was the first time she had encountered such a thing, and she had no clue.
She could only shout one after another, “Please calm down, everyone listen to me, you guys won’t get anywhere by keeping arguing here, okay?!”
Her voice was hoarse from shouting, and her temper followed.
The builder seized on her tone of voice and became even angrier, “What kind of attitude is that? Want us to calm down, can we calm down?”
“That’s right, and calling us noisy, if we don’t fight for our labor rights, no one will help us, you capitalists who only suck people’s blood.”
Blanche Capra was getting darker and darker, so she just stopped talking, no matter how they scolded, she had the same expression.
She was thinking about what it would take to solve the problem.
The assistant could hardly hold his head any longer, more and more people were approaching Blanche Capra, he turned back and was on the verge of crying, “President Capra, what should we do?”
What to do.
If you don’t come, you die, if you come, you die.
Blanche Capra was now thinking of simply stopping Project Two and using it to fill the deficit of Project One, but only if she still had to go through the board of directors, plus it would mean the company’s losses would be a considerable amount.
Just as she was looking down and contemplating, someone actually started throwing rocks at her, they were only small rocks, but they hurt enough to hit someone.
Blanche Capra was hit on the forehead, which broke the skin and blood flowed from the wound.
Instead of eliciting sympathy from the builders, it also made them more agitated.
