Aylen said with a smile, “It loves this flavor the most, Ms. Cruise. Could you take the dog food back later?”
Sophia nodded, looking at the prepared “luxury dog house” next to her, which was essentially a miniature villa.
She gave Aylen a “very satisfied” look, then went into the office holding the little golden retriever.
The little golden retriever, having eaten its fill, stopped causing a fuss. It lazily rolled over, exposing its round little belly, and playfully stuck out its tongue.
Sophia was overjoyed after seeing it and touched it a few more times.
Kylan pushed the door open, looking at Sophia who was not doing anything productive. He raised an eyebrow, about to scold her, but Sophia had already lifted up the little golden retriever.
“Quick, call Uncle…”
Kylan: “….

He walked over speechlessly, glanced at the little golden retriever, and couldn’t help but laugh as he spoke to her:
“Did I have to prepare a red envelope for our first meeting?”
Sophia laughed, taking the little golden retriever’s paw to touch his hand.
“Quick, thank you, Uncle!”
Kylan laughed speechlessly, but still respectfully petted the golden retriever.
However, this rough touch didn’t satisfy the little golden retriever. It whimpered, rolled over, and lay down on the other side of the office desk, playing with one of Sophia’s small ornaments.
“Where did you pick up this little thing?”
Sophia laughed, “At the bar entrance, I plan to adopt it. Shall we name it?”
Kylan pondered:
“Called Fa Cai?”
Sophia retorted, “Vulgar, call him Lucky!”

Kylan tugged at the corner of his mouth, reluctantly agreeing to the name.
So Sophia took a few photos of Lucky and sent them to the family group.
“My beloved pet, Lucky, please give him a warm welcome!”
Cecilia showed great respect by attending the event.
“Wow, so cute! I went to prepare some clothes for Lucky!”
Brycen: “Wow, my grandson is so cute!”
Kylan was just about to chime in when he noticed his parents‘ enthusiasm had gone overboard, so he put away his own phone
Sorry, he couldn’t utter those words against his will!
However, soon, Kylan received a call from Cecilia:
“Didn’t you see Sophia’s new pet? Why aren’t you saying anything? Don’t you welcome the new family member?”
“Oh, were you afraid that Lucky would take your place?”

Kylan, speechless, made an excuse saying he didn’t see it.
Then, he quickly sent a big red envelope in the group: “For Lucky!”
Afterwards.

Sophia quickly replied, “Thank Uncle on behalf of Lucky.”
Kylan: “……‘
Being a brother was so hard, was being an uncle this difficult?
He returned to the office and sped up the process of packing his things.
If it had been dragged on any longer, it would have cost more money!
Kylan had arranged everything and then went to the airport.
He left.
The rest of the things had to be handled by Sophia.
However, Sophia felt much better after she got Lucky.

No matter how expensive the dog food and nutritional supplements were, they were all arranged.
However, as soon as Kylan left, some people started to become restless.
The morning meeting of the following day.
Almost half of the people from each department didn’t come.
Upon looking, Sophia calmly sat in the spot where Kylan ha originally sat, waiting for over ten minutes.
In a span of ten minutes or so, only two or three came over.
Aylen turned green outside.
This was clearly a disrespect to Sophia!
Were they crazy?
Twenty minutes later.
Sophia glanced at the time, looked gently and calmly at the people present, and gave a smile
“Don’t wait anymore, Aylen, call everyone one by one in front of

everyone.”
Everyone present was taken aback.
The meeting room was silent, everyone looking at each other.
They couldn’t figure out what the parachuted CEO was up to.
Some people didn’t come because they didn’t believe that someone who had been the director of an entertainment company could secure the position of president of the Cruise Group.
Some people also intentionally wanted to give her a taste of defeat.
After all, Kylan couldn’t protect her forever.
The call was made, and Aylen calmly switched her phone to speaker mode.
The project director picked it up in a distracted manner:
“Hey, Aylen, I’m sorry, I twisted my ankle and it’s really inconvenient for me to go there. Please apologize to Ms. Cruise for me!”
Aylen glanced at Sophia, politely beginning:

“Mr. Laurier, today’s meeting was quite important, involving tasks that your department needed to cooperate with. You should have come over.”

Frank Laurier chuckled lightly:
“What’s so important? I’ve been in the company for so long, handling projects worth billions. The project brought by Ms. Cruise is not worth mentioning. What’s worth me making a trip for?”
“Besides, let’s just pause that project for now, we still have more important projects unfinished on our end…”
The meeting room was silent.
Even a pin dropping on the ground could be heard.
Everyone dared not breathe heavily, carefully observing Sophia’s expression.
This woman, on the other hand, remained seated and was incredibly calm, showing no signs of flushed, angry frustration.
They, on the other hand, had been quite worried for Frank.
He probably didn’t know, was this being amplified?

Aylen gave Sophia a look of mixed emotions.
Sophia took the phone directly, her voice gentle and calm:
“Since Mr. Laurier had twisted his ankle, he should take a long break to recover. There’s no need for him to come in for the next six months. Mr. Laurier’s position will be temporarily filled by his deputy.”
This remark was like a needle hidden in cotton, causing a subtle pain.
Everyone in the conference room was momentarily stunned.
The new official set three fires when he took office, and Frank surprisingly walked into the line of fire himself.
Don’t be fooled by Sophia’s gentleness and generosity, she seems easy to talk to, but the words she said with a smile were too unexpected!
This was simply a case of killing the chicken to scare the monkey!
Some people had already eagerly informed those who hadn’t arrived yet…
And Frank on the phone was silent for a few seconds, then he

started to laugh.
“Ms. Cruise was there, it didn’t matter if she heard. It’s just that it wasn’t appropriate for me to take a long vacation, Kylan
wouldn’t agree either.”
“Besides, if you have the guts, fire me! The board won’t agree anyway!”
His arrogant tone was so palpable, it could be felt even through the phone.
Sophia chuckled lightly, glanced at the others, and began to speak softly:
“Mr. Laurier, since the conversation has come to this point, I will not hold back anymore.”
“As a shareholder of the Cruise Group, I formally notified you that you were dismissed.”
She said, and then hung up the phone.
Her eyes were bright, beautifully clear and relaxed.
There was no deliberate dressing up, just a very casual, simple style.

But it was an existence that couldn’t be ignored.
The surroundings were eerily quiet.
Everyone was inexplicably nervous.
The position of President of the Cruise Group could have been taken by anyone.
But the shareholders of the Cruise Group were not so easily fooled, they were all real money!
Everyone’s heart trembled slightly, their respect and caution towards this Sophia increased a bit more.
Suddenly, Aylen’s phone was called back by someone, and he hung up immediately.
Needless to say, Frank was anxious.
Sophia glanced at the time.
She was not irritable, nor angry, and she didn’t even have too many emotions.
Her voice was as gentle as spring water, she spoke unhurriedly:

Please pass the message along, anyone who doesn’t want to come can simply submit their resignation letter.
The company and you were in an employment relationship. You were hired to serve obediently, not to cause trouble or hold the company back.
“Anyone else as rebellious as Mr. Laurier will end up the same way.”
