Pursuing Her

Chapter 615

Ms. Sophie had been managing the company perfectly well. It's just been a few days now, but after Ms. Willow came, everything has turned into a mess!

“Do you believe that I'll dismiss the lot of you right now? Get out of here this instant!” Willow was beyond livid.

In response, the few security personnel nodded.

“Okay, in that case, we have no choice but to leave as well.”

At that precise moment, several of Tanner Group's senior executives came over. They were all holding resignation letters in their hands.

“Ms. Tanner, we feel that Tanner Group's current concept has diverged too much from our beliefs. Therefore, we're leaving to prevent further resentment.”

That turn of events left Willow at a loss for words.

Never had she imagined that things would turn into such a disaster.

“What are you all doing? Is it because I'm not paying you enough? If so, I can—”

“It's not an issue of pay, Ms. Willow,” one of the executives interrupted with a shake of his head. Subsequently, he declared, “Ms. Sophie, if you were to establish a company in the future, you can seek me out. We're willing to work with you regardless of the remuneration!”

Throughout it all, Sophie stood at the side silently, watching everything unfold before her eyes.

Truth be told, she had only taken over Tanner Group for a short time. In fact, she was absent from the office most of the time.

She had always entrusted the management of the company to Victor and only came for a few meetings.

Thus, she had never expected the executives to have so much trust in her.

“Hah! No wonder all of you want to resign! It turned out that someone instigated you behind my back. Fine! Since you all want to leave, it'll be useless no matter how much I try to persuade you to stay. I'm approving your resignations.”

At the sight of the company's few capable talents resigning, Yale's expression turned grim.

“Don't act impulsively, gentlemen! We can talk it out nicely if you've got any requests. You've all been with Tanner Group for such a long time that you must have a sentimental attachment to the company! My father has just passed on, but you're all leaving as well. If he were to learn about this, he would be devastated!”

Left with no other recourse, he could only appeal to their emotions.

Alas, the few senior executives shook their heads.

“We'll never believe that Old Mr. Tanner would've handed Tanner Group over to Ms. Willow. That would

undoubtedly ruin the company!”

Needless to say, they had a sentimental attachment to Tanner Group after being with the company for so many years. However, it didn't mean that they would allow such a thing to happen.

After all, this is the fruit of Old Mr. Tanner's blood, sweat, and tears for over twenty years!

Hearing that, Willow sneered, “What's the meaning of this, then? Do you think I'll give up this position by doing so? Let me tell you that it's impossible! My grandfather's will was notarized by a notary public, and no one can snatch Tanner Group away from me now.”

Then, she arrogantly stated, “I'm putting this out here now. If any one of you wishes to leave, I'll never keep you from doing so. Just go.”

“We're leaving, Ms. Sophie. Do remember us if you establish a company in the future.”

Not in the mood to yak with Willow there, the few executives spun on their heels to leave.

“Please wait a moment, gentlemen!”

At long last, Sophie spoke.

“Will you take the company back, Ms. Sophie?”

Sophie's heart skipped a beat at the earnest look in their eyes. Oh God, they actually trust me this much!

“There's no need for you all to leave. She's the person who should be doing so,” she uttered unhurriedly. Regrettably, her words had Willow go off the deep end. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

“What's the meaning of that? Do you really think you're in control?” Seeing red, Willow charged at Sophie.

Just then, Victor stepped out of the elevator and was greeted by that scene. Rushing over, he grabbed Willow's hand.

When Willow saw that the man had seized her hand, her eyes narrowed a fraction.

“What are you all doing? It's still broad daylight now! Are you planning on taking Tanner Group away from me by force?”

She shot daggers at Victor, who still hadn't released his grip on her hand.

At that, Victor snorted.

“Who do you think you are? And how did Tanner Group become yours? Such a person like you is downright unworthy of it!”

After saying that, he pushed her away.

Unsteady on her feet, Willow stumbled back several steps before she finally managed to regain her footing.

“How dare you!”

Charmaine immediately hastened over to her and supported her.

“What should we do now, Willa? What are we to do when so many people are against you?” Charmaine had never seen such a crowd resigning en masse.

If all these executives were to leave, how could Tanner Group continue operating?

Willow's face was as black as thunder.

I'm the winner now, aren't I? But why are all these people still siding with her even at such a time?

“The lot of you have been brainwashed by Sophie, huh? What kind of spell did she cast on you that you all trust her so much?”

Following that accusation, the senior executives shook their heads.

“Look at this, Mr. Tanner. How could Willow manage Tanner Group well when this is all she's capable of?” one of them lamented in disappointment.

Panic swamped Yale.

Never had he imagined that they would be so averse to Willow that they were all resigning.

“Uh...”

He wanted to speak further, but he didn't know what else he could say then upon seeing that they

loathed listening to him.

Victor chimed in with a sneer, “Ms. Sophie, it's only been a few days, but they've thrown the company into a mess. Thank God you've finally come back!”

“Yeah.”

Sophie bobbed her head.

Since Grandpa handed the company to me, I naturally can't give it up, no matter the reason!

“Go back to work, everyone. I'll handle things here. Everything will be the same as before,” she announced confidently.

“Can you really resolve this, Ms. Sophie?” The few senior executives were still a touch worried. Verily, they would rather leave and not waste their time further if it were still Willow managing the company.

“Didn't you all decide to resign because you trusted me?”

Left without a retort, the few senior executives turned and returned to their posts.

As soon as they came out, the employees from the few departments bombarded them with questions, asking them about the situation and whether Sophie would be back.

Willow's presence at Tanner Group was no different from a nightmare.

One could never imagine the feeling of someone who knew nothing insisting on having her way in the

company.

“Work with peace of mind, everyone! Ms. Sophie said she'd definitely return! We've all got to have trust in her.”

While Sophie appeared cold and indifferent, everything she did inspired trust. Because of that, they felt that working with her would guarantee them a bright future.

Upon hearing that, the employees breathed a sigh of relief.

Hopefully, Ms. Sophie can kick Ms. Willow out of Tanner Group quickly so she can't continue throwing her weight around here.

Meanwhile, only the members of the Tanner family and Victor were left outside the general manager's office.

Victor was definitely on Sophie's side.

“So, what do you want, Sophie? You want to snatch Tanner Group away from me forcibly, right?”
