My Substitute CEO Bride
Chapter 1052
The increase in company orders implied more money to be made. In the past, the employees of Baroque would be idle all day, which was boring, to say the least. Now that things were busy, they got to experience a sense of fulfillment.
Most importantly, Harrison did not want to put all the pressure on his daughter.
In the chief financial officerâs office, Lauren was reprimanding a new employee for their carelessness when she received a call from Harrison. She answered the call and said into the receiver coldly,â What is it?â
âOur son-in-law came to see me!â
Laurenâs icy demeanor instantly melted. âReally?â
âWhy would I lie to you? Hurry up and come to my office!â
âAlright, Iâm coming right away!â
Lauren hung up the phone happily. Then, putting on her stern.

Department deals with money, which directly affects the compa
overall interests. Next time, you must be careful not to miss a
decimal point!â
âI understand, Madam Mare!â
The new employee was almost in tears. They had indeed been.
careless and missed out on a decimal point that almost led to them
paying out six figures instead of five
Luckily, the approval card was with the supervisor, or else they would have to work more than two years just to repay the sum.
Lauren picked up her bag and left the office. The employees of the entire Finance Department dared not even let out a sigh of relief.
When she reached the door, she suddenly turned back and said,â When Mr. Woolf and Mr. Kaysen come back, tell them to wait for me in the office!â After leaving that instruction behind, Lauren hurriedly made her way to Harrisonâs office.
âNashy!â Lauren greeted with a smile on her face.
âMom.â Nash stood up from his chair, but Lauren gestured for him to
sit back down.
âPlease, sit down quickly,â she said, not wanting to overstep her
bounds when it came to this son-in-law of hers. He had been
instrumental in supporting their family, so what did it matter
was his mother-in-law?
Harrison looked up and asked, âHas that payment issue been
out?â
Lauren glared at Harrison. âCanât work matters wait a bit?â
Harrisonâs face turned red. âRight, right. Nashy, letâs have some te
âMom, please take a seat,â Nash said, offering his chair to Lauren before dragging another chair over for himself.
Seeing Nash being so considerate, Laurenâs smile became even brighter. With a son-in-law like him, what more could she ask for?

Nash sat down, poured tea for his parents-in-law, and then lifted his teacup. âMom, Dad, letâs have some tea!â
The three of them enjoyed the tea.
âIs work at Universal Group not too busy these days?â
Nash nodded. âYeah, Iâm not very busy.â He was actually far from
being ânot very busyâ. Nash had only been to the office twice since taking office.
Harrison looked at Nash with enthusiasm and said, âI heard thereâs been a major shake-up there and itâs all because of you?â
He had learned from his daughter that Nash was the chief inspection officer. Recently, there had been significant changes in the
companyâs senior management. It was most likely due to Nashâs
efforts.
Nash smiled. âSome pests just need to be cleared out.â
Recalling the question Harrison had just asked his wife, Nash
inquired, âIs there a problem with the companyâs finances?â
Lauren did not want Nash to worry, but since he asked, she h
explain, âThere was an issue with a payment. We were suppose pay the supplier over 90,000, but due to a decimal point error, it nea
ended up being over 900,000!â
A million was not a significant sum for Baroque right now, but it was
still a lot of money.
