Chapter 1240 But they were, after all, her elders and seniors. Yet she dared to speak to them in such a manner, she had no respect for them at all! “If you want my kind of pay, you'll have to surpassfirst." Then Arabella left them fuming in silence.

They had mistaken her for a pushover.

It turned out she was a porcupine in disquise! Hans concealed his smirk and finally stepped inside.

Julian followed suit, struggling to suppress his laughter.

“Mr. Collins!" As soon as Hans appeared, everyone immediately rose, putting on their best demeanor to greet him.

The room was in silence when Hans cin. Arabella smirked, stood up, and joined the others in greeting, "Mr.

Collins’.

Hans's gaze shifted to her, "You're here." Everyone was taken aback that Mr. Collins would show concern for a company head who never attended meetings, and his tone was even gentle. This must be the calm before the storm! After all, Mr. Collins was never known to be easygoing! In his eyes, anyone who did not abide by the group's rules and regulations had to leave the group! The fact that this young lady was seated next to Mr. Collins must be part of his plan, right? The real show was about to begin.

“Sit! With one word from Hans, everyone sat neatly again, straightening their backs and looking at Hans, daring not to even breathe.

After Hans took his seat, he remained silent, his gaze sweeping over everyone present. His eyes were like a heavy burden, pressing directly onto each person.

Mr. Baldwin thought for a while and was the first to speak, "Mr. Collins, before the meeting begins, | would like to raise an issue. Ms.

Bennett, the head of the Collins Fashion Group, has never attended any meetings. | believe this seriously violates the group's rules and regulations and should be punished." “l agree.” Another subsidiary head, Mr. Armand, stood up to speak, "If everyone disregards the group's rules and regulations, then the whole group will be like a plateful of sand. How can you manage the company? How can others accept this?" “Moreover, reliable sources say that Ms. Bennett never clocks in at the company. She leaves all matters, big or small, to her assistant, yet she still draws her salary every month. | find this unacceptable!" The speaker was Mr. Carter.

Hans glanced at the three of them and asked calmly, "Anyone else has an opinion?" “Me.

“Mel" “Mel" "Mr. Collins, | also have an opinion," “So do I!" Many people raised their hands to express their dissent. All present, except Arabella, raised their hands! Julian didn't expect this bunch to be so fearless. Once they found out about Ms. Bella's identity, they might start begging for mercy.

“Since you all have objections, before discussing this matter, I'd like you all to give a warm round of applause to Arabella Collins, for her first-ever meeting attendance." As Hans finished speaking, the sparse applause accompanied by puzzled looks. Was she a member of the Collins family?
