Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted Chapter 1515 [Eleven Jewell]
âConsidering how well-acquainted she is with the people at the jewelry store, shouldnât she be aware of why I fired that designer?â Stella stated calmly.
Trevor chuckled. âRegardless, youâll have to provide me with an explanation, so I can give her something.â
Since Jaylene had already made the request, Trevor naturally could not just ignore it. He came to ask Stella for a reason just so he could provide an answer to Jaylene.
Trevor cherished his younger sister, Jaylene, since they grew up together. Even after the makeup artist incident, Jaylene worked hard to mend their sibling relationship. Even though Trevor felt somewhat distant from her, he could not completely ignore or avoid interacting with her.
Stella thought about the situation and said, âNow that the jewelry store is in my hands, I must reorganize its operations. Originally, I didnât plan to make such swift changes to the staff, but this designer practically forced my hand.
âSheâs opportunistic, lacks skill, and keeps mentioning Mrs. Saun this and Mrs. Saun that. Iâm The Velvetâs boss now. I canât allow someone to casually invoke the previous ownerâs name to pressure me.
Since she doesnât acknowledge me as the new owner, I have no reason to keep her.
The Velvet upholds a high-end and luxurious image. Their service should by no means involve excessive flattery toward customers. A brand should exude confidence and integrity rather than pouncing on a big client the moment they walk in. If I was shopping and witnessed that behavior, Iâd probably lose interest in buying anything from them,â she continued.
âThe Velvet has a lot of issues. Not only do they resist me as the new boss, but there are also significant problems with their products and their overall service attitude. I have to make a change somewhere.â
âAre you planning to revamp everything from top to bottom?â asked Trevor.
Stella froze. âHow could that be possible? Re-recruiting new employees and going through the training process would be time-consuming and resource-intensive. Besides, a complete change may not necessarily be a good thing. If I just came in and replaced everyone, others might think I either donât have the ability to manage this group, or I lack the tolerance to accommodate former workers.
âThese employees have been working here for so long. Nobody understands the companyâs operations better than them. Even though I let go of Barbara, I also appointed a new team leader. I wanted to show these people that Iâm the boss now. I employ my staff based on merit, not just personal connections. I wonât tolerate anyone whoâs not focused on their job.â
Trevor listened and smiled. âDidnât you tell dad that you donât understand the business world? Why does it seem like you do?â
Stella sighed. âItâs true that I donât understand much about the industry, but I have a strategist.â
Trevorâs eyes lit up. âDid Keegan ask Aldor to help you? Stella, tell Aldor to work for me. Whatever Keeganâs paying him, Iâll double it!â
Stella did not know what to say.
Aldor was a top-notch personal assistant and was practically a household name in their circle. Not only did Stella consider hiring him for herself, but it seemed Trevor also had the same thought about it for a while now.
âNo. Actually, itâs Mr. Snyder whoâs been helping me,â Stella said and shattered his dream.
Trevor was stunned to hear that. His enthusiasm faded and was quickly replaced by a hint of disdain.
âWhat kind of strategist is he? Heâs more like a troublemaker.â
The two continued chatting for a while. Then, Trevor got up and said,â Alright. Iâll be heading out now.
You should get some rest.â
Stella got up to see him off. As they walked down the stairs, she said,â Trevor, since you donât have a girlfriend right now, why donât you stay at home more often? Dad is getting older, and we should spend more time with him. He was so happy when I agreed to live here.â
Trevor chuckled. âThatâs because itâs you. If I were to come back and stay for a few days, heâd probably find me annoying.â
âWell, you should still come back,â Stella whispered. âWhat if I have a date with Keegan one day, and I donât come home for the day? You being at home could help divert some of dadâs attention.â
Trevor could not believe his ears. âSo, this is the main reason she wants me here!â he thought.
Back in her room, Stella lay on the bed after freshening up. She figured she might have trouble sleeping in a bed she was not used to sleeping in, but it turned out to be the opposite.
