Chapter 198
With a light smile on his face, Robert replied calmly,"Mr. Surrence, the company has informed all employees to attend this gathering, and I'm also a member of the company. Why? Did you not want me to come because you feared I would expose what you did today, Mr. Surrence?"
Hearing his words, Mike scoffed,"Just like I said, Naomi is my friend, and you snatched my sales away. As a newcomer,I can understand if you did not do it intentionally. Yet, you keep trying to say that the sales are yours. I believe you have a problem with your conduct, and you shouldn't continue to stay in our company."
Robert shrugged and said,"I think we both know clearly who has problematic conduct. I don't think it's all up to you when it comes to the company, Mr. Surrence. I will definitely report this matter."
After finishing his words, Robert ignored Mike and strode off.
Seeing that a me re newcomer was so disrespectful to him, Mike shook in anger. Furiously, he pointed at Robert's back and scolded, "I'm telling you now! You don't have
to come to work tomorrow onwards! Piss off!"
Even though Mike's words reached his ears, Robert still did not bother as he continued to stride into the hotel lobby.
Zurbia Gold & Jewelry booked a large banquet hall today; it was so big that hundreds of people could be accommodated.
The hall was almost fully seated when Robert entered. He then found a place to sit down.
A few minutes later, Janice also came in and sat beside Robert. She started to persuade him,"Robert, if you cannot do it, you should go apologize to Mr. Surrence. Otherwise, with that person's personality, you really won't be able to stay."
Robert looked at Janice in confusion. "There are so many senior executives of the company present today. Would it be useless if I exposed him?"
Janice shook her head and answered, "You think of this too naively."
Just as Robert and Janice were chatting, noises sounded from the entrance of the banquet hall. Following that,a group of people was seen coming in as they guffawed. When the surrounding employees saw them, they all
greeted them one after another, and Mike was among them.
These were the management of Zurbia Gold &Jewelry.
Janice pointed to a middle-aged man in his fifties and said,"Look, that's Mr. Heywood. Mr. Surrence has a good relationship with him."
Robert thought for a while. He remembered the last name of the person in charge of Zurbia Gold & Jewelry was indeed Mr. Heywood, but he had never met him before.
Robert recalled that this Mr. Heywood had some family relations with Darren, the head of the procurement department.
With the arrival of the main person in charge of Zurbia Gold & Jewelry, the banquet today was about to begin.
Before the dinner began, everyone knew that the most important thing tonight was the awarding of the top sales achiever title.
While Yoel was standing on the stage giving a speech, the young woman who had a good relationship with Janice shook Janice's arm and asked,"Janice, are you ready?"
Meanwhile, Janice also appeared a little excited.
Yoel's voice echoed, "Alright, let us reveal the top sales achiever of the first half of the year!"He then took out a list and announced,"I announce that Mike is the top sales achiever for the first half of the year! Mr. Surrence! Let us congratulate him!"
As soon as Yoel finished speaking, thunderous applause erupted in the banquet hall.
With that, Mike walked onto the stage with a beam on his face.
"That's impossible!" Janice blurted as her eyesfixed on Mike, who walked up to the stage."My sales revenue in the first half of the year was more than 150 thousand dollars. How would Mike have any sales at all? He said those clients were his friends, but all the sales would be counted as mine! It was me who did everything, including the explanation, the selling, and the packaging!"
Yoel patted Mike on his shoulder and then said to the audience, "All of you should take Mike as an example. Although Mike is not working in sales, he still had the best sales performance. On the contrary, even your combined sales revenue cannot reach half of what Mike made. Janice, aren't you also a senior employee? It's inappropriate for you to make only a few hundred dollars a month. You should work
harder to achieve a monthly commission of more than 1,500 dollars!"
All this while, Janice had been oppressed by Mike, but she had a family and children. Even if most of her performance was taken away by Mike, she still had about 1,050 dollars a month, which was still a high salary compared to other places. Moreover, Mike had always told her that if she worked hard, she would have a chance to be awarded as the top sales achiever, and there would be a bonus of 15,000 dollars!
The bonus of 15,000 dollars was also the motivation that had always supported Janice and gave her hope.
And just a moment ago, the thing that had been supporting Janice all this while had shattered completely.
Moreover, Yoel even mentioned Janice again on purpose. His words made Janice's emotions collapse in the blink of an eye.
