Charlotte grit her teeth and summoned up her courage to reply, "She gavea lot of information on this project, but there was nothing written about you being the person in charge." "Hmm," Christopher said, as if he was already used to it. "You don't have to be this cautious in front of me. I'm not your direct superior." Charlotte was too embarrassed to continue asking. Not knowing how to answer, she could only nod in awkwardly and sat down silently to eat her breakfast.

The horn in the corner of the room rang, indicating that their flight had begun to check their tickets. After boarding the plane, Charlotte made good use of her tto read through the documents again. This visit to the Zhuxi City was in search of a special chemical material.

She heard from Zoe that this company focused on processing granite. In the past, this area had undergone severe radiation exposure, with only machines working in the factory.

If a person cinto contact with a high level of radiation for even just an instant, it would be life-threatening. Obvious symptoms of overexposure to radiation included the appearance of dark spots on the face.

For serious cases, acute leukaemia would be a possible result.

She would be lying if she said that she wasn't scared.

But for being really terrified...

She wasn't. After all, both Shane and Christopher would be there.

After seriously jotting down notes, Charlotte placed the document aside and closed the notebook. Four hours later, the plane landed.

A local cto pick them up and they were sent to a five-star hotel first to drop their luggage.

The negotiation group from the NC Company, who had set off from River City, had been waiting in the hotel for a long time.

An hour later, both parties arrived and a meeting began at once.

Before Charlotte could recover from the lingering motion sickness from the plane ride, she was already sitting by the negotiating table.

Stunned.

This was the only word that crossed her mind.

She had originally remembered all the data clearly, but she now only had a general idea.

Luckily.

Christopher was, after all, responsible for the project in the past. It wasn't a big problem with him providing most of the details on the project.

Furthermore, this wasn't the first negotiation, nor was it a finalizing negotiation. Charlotte did not need to perform exceptionally well.

However...

When the meeting was halfway through, the negotiation group had provided the wrong information.

The most unacceptable part was that this mistake was pointed out by Shane. Although the other party praised Shane with a smile, he had suspended the meeting immediately and decided to continue tomorrow.

After the meeting.

Charlotte's legs went limp.

She now knew how difficult it was to discuss a contract formally.

Not to mention that she had been reading documents on the plane before, so she was still suffering from motion sickness and could not even stand well.

Christopher wanted to hold her up, but before he could reach out, Shane pulled Charlotte into his arms. Christopher's lips quirked up in self-deprecation. He gently clenched his fist and rubbed his sore palms.

Indeed, she didn't need him, since her husband was right by her side.

Back in the hotel.

The crowd followed Shane to the conference hall booked by the NC company.

Shane took off his suit jacket and sat down in a smooth motion. He looked out of the glass wall, picked up the mug with a poker face, and took a sip of coffee. Everyone was standing in front of him, including Charlotte and Christopher.

He placed the mug down on the desk, and the bottom of the cup clinked against the desk.

"Whoever wants to give up should just write a resignation letter and hand it over to the human resources department." No one had the guts to speak up.

"I have fought a none battle without preparation. All of you are soldiers I am proud of." Sof them could no longer keep a blank expression.

"How did the data even get messed up in such an important project? Huh?" "Reporting in, Mr Fuller. Originally, Ms Watson was in charge of all of this, but due to the sudden switch to Ms Emerson, we did not have enough tto prepare." Hearing this, Charlotte was upset, but there was nothing she could do about it.

She had done everything in her power and Shane had checked through her work last night. Shane was the one who said that there were no problems.

It was obvious tha the misreported data did not belong to her.

However...

The workplace was not somewhere to discuss all of these.

They only knew that she was new here and that there was nothing wrong with pushing her out. She would not be offended.

"Are you sure that there was something wrong with Zoe and Charlotte's arrangements?" It was extremely quiet.

Shane's expression was gloomy and cold. He stood up abruptly and locked his scrutinizing gaze on the man. "Hmm?" "Reporting in, Mr Fuller, I'm not sure!" The man broke out in a cold sweat.

"Since you can't be sure, continue checking the data now, right here. I want to know whose part was problematic!" Shane waved his hand, picked up the document, threw it at the man and said, "Check it!" Mr Fuller was serious - this was the only thought that flashed through everyone's mind.

Check.

Of course they started checking immediately.

The first thing the negotiation team did was to investigate Charlotte's part. She was the only newcomer and the only one who had participated in this project for the first time. She must have been the one who made a mistake.

That wasn't the case.

Charlotte knew it clearly. Shane had checked all of her data. If anything were to go wrong, he would have discovered it a long tago. The negotiation team's desire to shift responsibilities had been dashed. The negotiation team noticed that there was no problem with Charlotte's data. They could only grit their teeth, checking their own team members unwillingly.

After a few rounds, it was found that the culprit was a 26-year-old employee who had been working for three years in the NC Company.

Shane ordered Cole to inspect the worker's performance review for the past month.

Grade C.

In NC, if a worker's performance review was graded C for two consecutive months, they would be — m forced to quit - a legal and reasonable employee could submit an application form for an appeal. If the appeal was refused, they would appeal again to the court, and the company would still treat him as a worker during the appeal period, providing salary and benefits. Charlotte silently calculated...

Such a big mistake must result in a grade C performance review this month as well.

Then, this person would be fired.

"Mr Fuller, I really don't know that the problem was on my part. I've also verified before submitting and it's impossible for anything to go wrong." The worker held the document with a pale expression. "You have two choices. One, he stays, but all of your performance reviews will be grade C. Or, all of your performance reviews will be grade B this month without promotion, and he will be fired. This includes everyone except Charlotte and Christopher." Christopher was a president-level figure, so it was impossible for him to receive punishment.

However, Charlotte was different. After such an incident, she should have been a scapegoat.

So, to be more specific, Shane was on her side, wasn't he? Thinking of this, Charlotte felt a strange warmth in her heart. He could have chosen to give up on her to save his old workers.

"Mr Fuller, it's fine that Mr Gibson was the previous person in charge, but why is Charlotte also..." The members of the negotiation group were not satisfied.

"I have checked all of her data. Do you want to punish her or me?" Shane narrowed his eyes. The M pressure exuding from his body, coupled with the faint smile on his face, made him cold and gloomy. He was as beautiful as a cannibal plant which looked harmless at first sight.

Even if it was known that he was dangerous, no one could escape from being attracted to and be intoxicated by him.

Well, almost everyone.

The man from the negotiation group, who was named by him, broke out into a cold sweat. He could only shake his head harshly, "Mr Fuller, I don't mean that. I accept all the company's decisions!" He must have been crazy just now, not noticing that Mr Fuller was making this decision to protect Ms Emerson.

Finally.

All the members of the negotiation group decided on getting a C grade, allowing the culprit to stay. Shane seemed to be very satisfied with their decision and told them to leave, but he didn't ask Cole to change their current performance review.

"This is a good move." Christopher picked up the glass teacup and stared at the tea leaves inside. "After this month, you will know who is sitting around and doing nothing." Shane raised his lips, smiled, but said nothing.

However, Charlotte did not understand. "Mr Gibson, I'm sorry. May I ask what you mean by that? I don't really understand." "Just now, Mr Fuller said that everyone would get a Grade C, which means that speople would think that not putting in any effort in work is alright. Since everyone is getting Grade C anyway, is it still important if you don't work hard?" Christopher smiled meaningfully.
