Chapter 45 The Carrot-And-Stick Approach
Athena used the carrot-and-stick approach.
First, she took Carlos as an example to frighten the others.
The arrest of Carlos made the rest panic and afraid of being in jail.
Then, she told them the idea.
This idea encouraged these people actively return the money.
Gideon watched her and could not help applauding Athena in his heart.
She handled the mess.
She got back about 30 million dollars.
Athena looked at them casually, but others looked at her
carefully.
Most of them paid back the money according to the amount
listed by Carlos.
But…
Even brothers could not know everything about each other.
How could Carlos know everyone’s matter in detail?
Athena kept silent for a while.
She raised her eyes and scanned the crowd. “Everyone, are
you sure it is all the embezzled money?”
In the crowd, some felt guilty.
Those who did not lie responded loudly.
Athena played with the pen in her hand. “Everyone, you should try your best to recall it. Otherwise, it is
difficult for you to deal with it if other senior leaders find you lying.”
“I seem to have undercalculated by seven million dollars and didn’t take it into my account.”
Athena replied with a smile, “Are you joking? You are greedy to embezzle money from the company,
but you put it in your
account?”
Then the man put on a long face.

After that, three or four more people with pale faces wrote the chits again.
It was not a small amount.
In the end, it was a total of forty-five million dollars. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“Miss Newton, our job…”
At this time, Matt asked in a low voice.
He also issued a chit of more than one million dollars.
If he lost this job…
“As I said just now, Carlos led you to do it. I still approve of your workability.” Athena slapped their faces
just now. Then she said friendly, “So, you can work as usual. I will convince the president not to fire
you, but you should be cautious at work. If you make mistakes again, you will bear the
consequences.”
“Miss Newton, you are nice and kind!” Matt immediately
flattered her.
Athena smiled faintly and said, “We are all workers. It’s not easy for everyone. Let’s work hard in the
future.”
Though these people cost a lot, they left with a smile.
They said to each other.
Some people cursed Carlos.
“What a son of a bitch. He should be dead as a doornail. How dare he! He frames us!”
“I second that. The most money I wrote in my chit was spent by him. He spent it eating, drinking, and
playing with women. I can’t let him go!”
“If he can be released, I will take his skin off!”
Athena tidied up all the things regularly, put them in a file folder, and handed them to Gideon, who
propped his head and looked at her casually.
“Mr. Hale, I’ll hand over these chits to you for the rest embezzled money.”
“You want to intercede with Byron?” Gideon asked.
Athena put away the computer, paper, and pen.
‘How is it possible? Mr. Crawford won’t ask about such things. He only cares about the result.”
“That’s right.” Gideon smiled, “So, Miss Newton, you just used the carrot-and-stick approach?”
“Do you know it?” Athena squinted at Gideon.
“I graduated from Columbia University.” Gideon sat up straight. “You let them go like this?”
“Then what should I do? The project is at a critical time and has already been delayed for a month
because of these idlers. If I fire them and find others to finish this project, it will take a long time.”
But time was money.
It was the case on the construction site.
