Chapter 619: 619: I Have a Plan
She had been getting along well with him, Chief Marshall was very kind to her, how could he so suddenly change his attitude towards her? He did not leave any room for negotiation, it was really cruel!
Unable to accept the reality, she returned home after work, holding back her emotions all day, and finally broke down crying.
She cried for a long time, without eating anything.
Grace Ziegler was still very upset, it felt like her heart was shattered.
The hope that had just ignited, and her ambition, suddenly, she could see nothing, lost in confusion.
Unexpectedly, a message notification rang in the PR Department’s group chat.
Only then, Grace Ziegler took out two tissues to wipe her tears and nose.
It turns out that there has been an official investigation announcement on the matter of Grace Martinez reporting James Marshall, and her colleagues were all discussing it.
James Marshall admitted that he had started an improper relationship with Grace Martinez secretly, not only causing serious harm to Grace but also hurting his own family members who cared about him the most. Deeply regretting his actions, he resigned from his role as president of the overseas branch in the Kingdom of Dale and his position on the Board of Directors of Marshall Corporation.
Additionally, James Marshall apologized to the public, to Grace Martinez, and to Marshall Corporation.
To prevent people from using this incident for sensationalism and harming the interests of Marshall Corporation, James Marshall transferred his shares to Daniel Marshall.
With this, he no longer had any connection with Marshall Corporation. He was sincerely sorry for his wrongdoing, apologized to his wife, and hoped that everyone could return to their normal lives. He would no longer use public resources to respond to this matter.
In the PR Department’s group chat, Grace Ziegler did not comment and only watched as her colleagues discuss.
After all, Grace Martinez was the previous PR Department Manager and the current PR Department Director was also in the group. Moreover, this scandal still needed the PR Department to repair the image, so the colleagues just mentioned James Marshall without going into detailed discussions.
Obviously, the ultimate victor of this scandal was Chief Daniel Marshall.
It seemed that apart from the PR Director, the others were shocked by the sudden announcement.
Indeed, Chief Daniel Marshall was a man hard to decipher.
Grace Ziegler found it even harder to understand Chief Daniel Marshall.
However, she was even more curious about him.
Having transferred her to the PR Department, surely wouldn’t be her final destination.
Even if she could not become Mrs. Olivia Marshall, and even if James Marshall was ruined, Grace Ziegler believed that Grace Martinez still held the interests she wanted, or else she would not take such risks to play this game.
If Grace Martinez could rise through the ranks in Marshall Corporation, Grace Ziegler believed she could do it too.
Grace Ziegler thought she was smarter than Martinez, she was sure not to make the same mistakes, and she would definitely have the last laugh.
No longer feeling upset, Grace Ziegler prepared a self-heating hot pot and also cooked some instant noodles.
…
Upon seeing the news, Edward Marshall was furious.
After laying low for so many years, with so much hard work and consideration, to be ruined by a lowly woman, Edward Marshall felt a sense of extreme disappointment and rage welled up within him.
This son was so disappointing, and Daniel Marshall was so despicable!
Suddenly, the servant announced, “Master, the young master has returned.”
Edward Marshall remained silent, his face eerily dark.
James Marshall walked in, and sat down next to his father.
“Dad, I’m sorry!”
With a slap sound, Edward Marshall slapped his son’s face and exclaimed angrily, “You still have the audacity to come back, is your brain filled with water? How could you transfer the shares of Marshall Corporation to Daniel Marshall, are you insane?”
“Dad, I have a plan.”
