“Go with it? Tell me about it.” Lauren stared at Mr. Clark suspiciously.
Lauren trusted this butler who had served her for half her life.
“Madam, just pretend that you don’t know about this. During this period, you can arrange for Mr. Derek and Miss Zoe to meet. Women can be jealous. If the woman that Mr. Derek likes knows that the Maynard family has already chosen a girl for Mr. Derek, and Mr. Derek also frequently meets with his future wife, she will easily lose her temper.”
Lauren nodded silently.
“As time goes by, they will have a lot of arguments. When they slowly lose their feelings for each other, they naturally break up.”
“What you said is reasonable. But what if that woman keeps pestering him and is unwilling to divorce? The Maynards have hundreds of billions, will she give up?”
Mr. Clark shook his head, “Madam, have you forgotten that without your signature, Mr. Derek’s spouse will not get any property of the Maynard family.”
“That’s true. But when the time comes, what if the woman won’t break up but occupy the title of Derek’s wife to live a good life. It is not a good thing.”
“Madam, you have underestimated Mr. Derek’s ability. Since Mr. Derek dared to register his marriage, it means that he dares to go through the divorce procedures. Mr. Derek is not a child, he must have a sense of propriety.”
Lauren nodded, but she was still worried.
“I still think that it would be better to deal with Serina like how I dealt with Marco.”
“But Madam, you have to consider it carefully. At that time, Mr. Derek was only twenty years old and had just taken over the Saint Group after studying abroad. But now it’s different. If Madam makes a move, Mr. Derek will definitely know.”
Lauren rubbed her forehead in annoyance, “Then do as you say! Arrange for Derek and Zoe to date!”
“Yes.”
It seemed that there was no better way.
Perhaps all the parents in the world were most worried that the child grew fangs and was out of their power.
In S City.
When Yolanda returned home after dealing with the matter of the Benevolence and Justice Society, she found that Serina was missing.
Serina’s room was empty, and there was a note on the table.
“Mom, I’ve already grown up, so I’ll settle the matter between Derek and me myself. There’s no need to look for me. I’m going back to City Z.”
“Serina! This little girl is a real headache!” Yolanda slapped the note on the table.
In fact, she never thought that Derek would rather give up the cabotage right of the port in City S than divorce Serina.
Yolanda felt it would be even more difficult.
At this moment, Serina had already taken the bus back to City Z. Her phone was broken and there was no way to contact her.
Remembering the ordeal she had experienced when she left City Z, she bought sunglasses and a mask before she left.
She sat on the bed and thought for a long time.
She had been afraid and did not dare to ask if Derek loved her, and this time, she would ask him personally!
Even if he was really with her because of the cabotage right of the port, she still had to ask about it clearly.
In the president’s office of the Saint Group.
Hayden stared closely at the instructions Derek gave him, looking nervous.
Derek sat in front of his desk and did not say a word, his eyes focused on the documents on the table.
Not only did he tell Yolanda that he would not divorce Serina for the cabotage right in S City, but he would also get the Saint Group out of trouble within a week.
That was right. This was how arrogant he was!
“Hayden.”
“Yes.” Hayden immediately responded.
“Immediately stop two production lines.”
“Mr. Derek, you must not do this.” Hayden immediately interrupted, “To reduce the cost, we have invited the local people. These people rely on the production lines to make a living. If the lines stop, it will inevitably arouse their disgust. What if they protest? There was a similar incident before.”
“Can you wait for me to finish speaking?”
“Sorry, Mr. Derek.” Hayden lowered his head.
Recently, Hayden had put in a lot of effort for this matter and was about to go crazy.
“Tell the employees on the production lines that if they stop working temporarily, the company will distribute 70 of their average performance in the past. Let’s see if they are willing to stop working temporarily.”
Hayden sucked in a breath of cold air. They didn’t need to work, but could get 70 of their salary?
“The middle-aged people and the people who are close to retirement may not be willing. But some young employees may be thinking about going out to relax. There will be someone willing to leave for a while.”
Hayden admired Derek’s plan. The work efficiency of the middle-aged man and the elderly close to retirement was poor. It could affect the production efficiency of the production line and reduce the output of the products.
This method could reduce the inventory and further ease the pressure.
“In addition, go and talk to the cargo ships at the port. If they specialize in transporting our products and guarantee that it will be reduced by an hour than before, we are willing to pay double the price.”
“Yes.”
“Then check the major shopping malls. How many daily necessities do we have in our inventory? Let’s fully promote our domestic sales.”
“However, Mr. Derek, the Saint Group’s daily necessities are all high-end products. We never give discounts or do activities. Will this affect our position?”
“It is exactly because there is no discount that it will cause crazy sales. Let the public know that the discount is only this time.”
“Yes.”
“Alright, go back to your work.”
“Yes!” Hayden immediately went to do this.
In fact, Hayden couldn’t figure it out. As long as Derek got the cabotage right to the port, he didn’t need to go through so much trouble.
In this way, the operation would be greatly improved. Although it could solve a temporary problem, it would still be impossible after a long time.
Just as Derek finished speaking, his phone rang. It was Henry.
“What is it?”
“Mr. Derek, Madam just called and said that she wanted you to accompany her for dinner with Miss Zoe tonight.”
“Didn’t you tell her that I was busy recently?”
“I said so. I also told Madam that there were some problems with the sale of daily necessities recently, but she said that the money was earned endless and Mr. Derek’s marriage is important. So you must be present.”
“I understand.”
Henry told Derek the time and place and hung up.
Derek lowered his eyes and pinched the space between his eyebrows. Suddenly, he remembered Serina.
Recently, he had no time to care about the news about Serina. Because he was injured and busy handling the problems with the Saint Group. He had to deal with it quickly.
Therefore, let her stay with the Gills was the best choice.
Derek checked the time and went to the break room. He casually picked up a suit and changed it.
It seemed that he had to deal with his mother and the Webber girl tonight.
