Chapter 202 The Illegitimate Daughter's Counterattack
Inside the Chairman's office of the Garcia Group, Norman paced back and forth, burdened with worries. The Watson family's ambush on Antony failed last night, which now posed a threat to the Garcia Group.
To put it simply, the situation is not at all favorable, in fact, quite the opposite.
Suddenly, Penelope knocked on the office door.
"Come in." Norman sat down on the couch, pouring himself a cup of tea, trying to ease his anxious mood.
"This week, the North district's business has shown explosive growth. The number of shipments is almost surpassing that of our headquarters. This is the business list that came from the North district," Penelope reported urgently, holding a document.
"What? How can that subsidiary in the North district have such a huge business? Are you mistaken?" Norman had been busy with the CC Alliance recently and hadn't paid much attention to Kayla's affairs. In his view, the North district market was monopolized by the three major families, and that subsidiary was merely a name without any actual business.
"No mistake, I heard that Kayla monopolized the supply market for fabrics, leather, and wool in the North district. The number of employees in the subsidiary has already exceeded two hundred," Penelope couldn't help but speak out, handing the business list to Norman.
"How is that possible? Does she really have the power to monopolize the fabric market in the North district?" Norman couldn't believe it and quickly took the North district's business list that his assistant Penelope handed him. After carefully reading it several times, he was shocked. He stood up from the couch all of a sudden, with an expression of disbelief. "This growth in business is too fast."
In less than a month, this illegitimate daughter has grown to such a level. If she's given a bit more time, won't things be completely overturned? Norman was secretly amazed. The power of this illegitimate daughter of his was truly increasingly shocking. She even managed to collaborate with all three major families in the North district, something no one else has the ability to do.
"No, I have to find a way to suppress her. If I let her continue to develop like this, there will be a time when even I can't control her, let alone Nathan." Norman furrowed his brows. He had intended to pass on his family business to his son, Nathan, rather than this illegitimate daughter, Kayla.
Norman paced in his office, trying desperately to devise a plan, but he couldn't come up with a solution. He then turned to his assistant, Penelope, and said,
"Go and call Irving." Norman's trusted cousin, tasked with the important position of general manager. Moreover, his cousin was resourceful and capable.
Soon, Penelope brought Irving over.
"What urgent matter required my presence?" Irving entered and immediately noticed Norman's bad expression, knowing that something urgent must have happened.
"Last time, didn't you suggest that I send Kayla to the North district? Now something big has happened," Norman said, feeling overwhelmed.
"Something big?" Irving frowned and thought for a moment before saying, "You mean the sudden increase in business volume at the North district branch?"
"Yes, you knew about it earlier, didn't you? Why didn't you tell me? The North district branch already has over two hundred people, and if we let Kayla continue to grow, I might not be able to control her anymore," Norman said anxiously.
If Kayla flourished too much, she might become independent, which was his biggest concern.
"I didn't expect Kayla's development in the North district to be so good, but her success there benefits us too! It's time to reap the rewards!" Irving said calmly after brewing himself a cup of tea, looking confident.
"What do you mean?" Norman couldn't help but ask when he saw Irving's confident expression, knowing that his cousin already had a plan.
"We can still control her using the old method! Raise her to the position of Deputy General Manager in the company, transfer her back to the headquarters, and then send our own people to take over the North district branch. This way, the North district's business won't suffer, and that illegitimate daughter will only have a nominal position while being monitored by us. It's a win-win," Irving said.
Irving was indeed treacherous, playing this scheme skillfully. If it weren't for William's help, Kayla would have struggled for a lifetime.
"Great plan! Kayla's unlucky to have you!" Norman exclaimed with joy. This scheme of promoting and demoting was brilliant. He didn't have to worry about Kayla becoming independent. At most, he would give her a symbolic raise. Compared to the huge profits of the North district, he would make a fortune.
"I'll immediately send someone to summon her back to the headquarters," Norman quickly went to deal with the matter.
Meanwhile, at Ring Villa in the West district, Kayla was in her room, worshipping a photo. In the picture, there was a beautiful woman who bore a striking resemblance to Kayla, only a bit older.
"Mother, after enduring humiliation for so many years, it's finally time for revenge! That heartless man who caused your death will lose everything today. I will use the entire Garcia Group as compensation for you!" Kayla said coldly. She then bowed earnestly to the photo. The reason why she endured humiliation in the Garcia family for years was to seek revenge.
The opportunity for revenge has finally arrived today.
After paying respects to her mother, Kayla put on her mother's favorite long dress, a deep rose silk gown. When she wore it, it felt as if her mother was right beside her.
However, this crimson dress also showcased her perfect and graceful figure, making her exceptionally sexy and beautiful. It was evident that Kayla's mother was also enchanting and alluring.
Just as Kayla was about to turn and leave, she received a call from Norman and answered it immediately.
"Kayla! You've been working hard in the North district recently. I appreciate your efforts and won't treat you unfairly. Therefore, I have decided to promote you to Vice General Manager of the company, with double the salary. You can stay at headquarters from now on and won't have to work so tirelessly, coming and going every day." Norman's seemingly caring words came through the phone.
"As for the business in the North district, I will send someone to take over. Please assist in the handover."
"Understood, Dad! I'll come to headquarters for the handover later." Kayla replied in a cold tone, her heart already completely chilled.
Kayla couldn't be deceived about Norman's intentions. He still didn't trust her as his illegitimate daughter. Seeing the remarkable development of the business in the North district, headquarters didn't want to see her achieve such success and intended to take credit for it, demoting her and putting her under supervision at headquarters.
This tactic had been used on her more than once, and Kayla naturally saw right through it.
"Sure, sure. I will personally welcome you." Norman said.
After hanging up the phone, Kayla descended the stairs with an icy expression, stepping on her red high heels.
There were William, Sharon, and others waiting for her down there.
And her team, including her assistant Hazel, legal advisor, and Samuel, among others, a total of six people, all loyal to her.
William was right. During her time in the North district, Kayla had the opportunity for independent development and formed her own team. She owed it all to one person, William.
"Let's go!" Kayla straightened her posture and said to them, taking the lead.
Today, Kayla exuded an extraordinary charm and aura, as if a queen had returned.
Witnessing this, William's lips curved upwards. He had been nurturing Kayla all this time, and now he could finally unleash her. This move would surely be a royal flush for the Garcia Group.
