Chapter 100
“That’s right! The Jenner Group is one of the best in the industry. Our company is nothing. It’s amazing that we can get a share of your achievement!”
“Don’t say that.” Yelena looked at them, smiling. “You’re too kind. My dad actually told me before I came that this collaboration would be training for me. After all, I’ll take over the family business in the future. If I made any mistakes at all, I ask for your forgiveness!”
The entire meeting room fell into silence.
Cordelia sensed everyone’s stares and secretly scoffed. What Yelena was saying was that she wanted everyone to know that she would inherit the Jenner Group. An illegitimate daughter like her would be excluded.
Although she was also a Jenner, she would get nothing at all!
If that were the case, she might suffer in the company in the future. These people usually treated their employees according to their social status. If she lost the Jenner Group’ support, she would also lose the respect of the company. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
Cordelia took a deep breath in and looked at Yelena with a light smile on her face.
“How would you make mistakes, sister? You’ve been smart since you were young, and you’re hardworking. The collaboration will definitely go well!”
“Ha, thanks for your compliment!”
“I’m just telling the truth. You’re capable of managing the Jenner Group. However, I remember dad gave a bombastic promise during an interview that he’d work until he’s old. He’ll be the company’s president forever!”
Her smile was subtle. “Ha, it seems like dad is coming of age that he’d take a backseat now. Indeed, he loves you. Otherwise, why would he ask you to take over the business?”
“You—” Yelena’s expression changed.
Everyone knew that William was greedy for money and power. The Jenner Group was a major business that held power at the moment.
Such power was the thing William enjoyed the most. It was also this feeling that he was most afraid to lose.
It was definitely against his own principle that Yelena had said she would take over the Jenner Group to the people!
If William were to hear that…
Yelena bit her lip and glared fiercely at Cordelia, who was smiling.
“We’re at the office, so let’s not talk about what’s happening in our family.” Cordelia got up and gave out the collaboration proposal to everyone leisurely. “This is the proposal our planning department produced by working the past few days overtime. Please take a look. Do give me feedback if any amendment is needed. I’ll speak to the planning department.”
Cordelia looked at Yelena calmly. “Ms. Jenner, this is the latest proposal format. I suppose you understand it?”
“What are you trying to say? It’s just a dumb proposal. Do you think it’s Greek to me?”
“That’s right. Sorry for saying that.” Cordelia enunciated each word. “Ms. Jenner is the Jenner Group’s heiress. Your capability in business is definitely outstanding. Of course, you can understand the proposal!”
“Cordelia!”
Yelena was pissed due to the humiliation.
Cordelia had emphasized the word “heiress” on purpose!
Cordelia looked at Yelena with a cold face as the latter wanted to burst from anger but refrained from doing so to avoid embarrassing herself in front of everyone. She thought Yelena looked pathetic and laughable.
In reality, she did not care about anything from the Jenners. She never thought about fighting for the inheritance with her.
However, Yelena’s hostility was just too much.
Cordelia sat on her seat calmly, and David stood up to soothe the atmosphere by starting the meeting.
However, Yelena’s cold voice came again at that moment.
“I’m thirsty from talking so much! Can’t your company even serve a cup of tea for your client?”
