Chapter 1578 I Also Hold the Most Shares in This Company!
Elisa squinted her eyes; her lips pinched into a tight line.
Elisa chose not to follow Norman's suggestion to fire the employee who could not recognize her.
She gave the employee a second chance. "It's okay that you didn't recognize me," she said narrowing her gaze at
her, "but you should be aware of the company policy. As the receptionist, you must treat every guest with great
respect and politeness."
"Yes, Ms. Benett. I'll be more mindful next time. Thank you for giving me this chance."
The receptionist felt a wave of relief wash over her. She was grateful to Elisa for not firing her.
"If you're still unfamiliar with the receptionist role, you could search for resources online."
Elisa then turned to face Norman.
Her tone of voice became more distant than before.
She adopted a coarse and grating voice as she said snarkily to Norman, "A mere employee like you should know
better than to be late," she said, her face twisted with disdain. "Don't tell me you have business meetings to

Norman was unfazed by her sneering comment. He had been in this industry for years and wasn't about to back
down to Elisa.
"Exactly," he responded with a lilt. "As a mere employee, I must do whatever the higher-ups tell me. After all, things
aren't the same as they used to be. Ms. Bennett, I'm sure you're well aware of my situation."
Beneath his polite mask of a smile, his words dripped with a venomous threat. He was trying to intimidate Elisa, but
she wasn't fooled.
Elisa could see right through Norman's façade.
Norman's plots didn't bother Elisa.
Elisa knew what he was up to, and she was prepared to handle whatever sneaky plans Norman had up his sleeves.
She returned his smile, displaying a thin veneer of civility. Her eyes were cold and hard as she regarded him
critically. "You're right," she said. "I hope you remember who you're working for." She enunciated her last few words
with emphasis, warning him not to overstep his boundaries.
Elisa turned and walked away, leaving Norman to stew in his own anger.
The moment Elisa left, Norman's smile faltered.
His dark eyes burned with hatred and resentment.
Upon returning to the Benett Corporation, Elisa wasted no time calling a meeting for the shareholders and the
executives.
She wanted to unveil her latest plans for the future of Benett Corporation.
One of her proposals was to implement a partition system that would clearly define the roles and responsibilities of
the shareholders and the executives.
Also…
Additionally, there would be a monthly evaluation for the management team. Anyone who failed the evaluation
would be terminated.
Elisa would also be personally reviewing every quarterly report.
Evaluations and quarterly reports were a thorn in the side of the management team.

Therefore, they were discontent with the changes that had been put in place.
"Your uncle never demanded this of us! You're just a child! What right do you have to order us around?"
"I agree. Aren't you trying to destroy Benett Corporation with these new policies? Why don't you just sell off the
company now, so everyone here can be compensated fairly and find work elsewhere?"
"A new broom sweeps clean, but aren't you being a bit too radical?"
…
Elisa's new policies were met with a great deal of resistance.
Given how boldly she had proposed these ideas, Elisa had anticipated such reactions from the shareholders.
She placed one hand under her chin and the other on the table, softly tapping on it.
She patiently waited for everyone to express their opinions and only responded when everyone had finished
speaking.
The corner of her lips curled up into a formidable smile.
"If Norman was doing a good job, do you really think he would have been demoted to an ordinary employee? And
what do you mean I don't have the right to propose this? Do I need to remind you that I'm the CEO and the only
successor to this corporation? I also hold the most shares in this company."
