Chapter 21
Commission
Vivian was completely unfamiliar with the schools in S City, so she had to find someone to clarify before making a decision.
The next day, as soon as the alarm rang, Leon opened his eyes and got out of bed. There was food that Vivian had prepared in the kitchen refrigerator. He made two sandwiches and poured two glasses of milk. He sat at the dining table and waited quietly for Vivian to get up.
Vivian had forgotten to set her alarm last night and got up late this morning. She rushed out of her room to make breakfast, only to find that breakfast was already on the table.
Vivian smiled as she patted Leon’s head and praised, ” “Leon, how are you so powerful!”
Leon lowered his eyes shyly and said in a low voice, “These are very simple to make.”
After breakfast, Vivian took Leon went to work.
When the employees saw Leon, they all thought that he was Vivian’s younger brother. After all, the two of them looked very similar, but the age difference seemed to be only ten years.
“Good Morning, Boss.” The people who passed by greeted Vivian.
On the other hand, Vivian generously introduced Leon’s identity, “Good Morning, this is my son, Leon. Leon, say hello to Uncle and Auntie.
Leon didn’t expect Vivian to introduce him to everyone who greeted him, so he quickly greeted then, “Hello, Uncle and Auntie.”
The two of them received a lot of surprised looks. Vivian joked, “I can’t help it, I take care of myself too well!”
Vivian’s magnanimous look made everyone less curious and less eager to explore. Leon felt a sense of security from Vivian’s attitude.
For the past two days, Vivian had been remotely controlling the work through the phone. All the handover of the factory had been completed in an orderly manner yesterday. The new company had been registered, and the signboard at the gate had been changed!
In the office.
Vivian looked at the head of the procurement department sitting in front of her and said, “Betty, you’ve been a director for almost ten years, right?”
Betty looked at the new boss in front of her and nodded with a smile. “Yes, I’ve been working in the clothing factory for 15 years. I became the head of the procurement department nine years ago.”
I’ve had my men check the accounts for the past three years, “Vivian continued. I found out that there was a purchase of buttons half a year ago. Each one was 0.02 Yuan more expensive than the normal price.”
Betty’s smile froze, and she looked at Vivian in a daze.
A faint smile appeared on Vivian’s lips. “There were 150,000 buttons in that batch, which means that it’s 3,000 Yuan more expensive than before. But as far as I know, the price of this common style has not fluctuated in the past year.”
Betty moved her lips a few times, but in the end, she didn’t say anything. She just lowered her head slightly. She had thought that this day would come when she did the trick, but if she had the chance to do it again, she would still choose to do it.
The moment she was exposed, Betty felt a lot more relaxed. She took a deep breath and said, “Boss, I did get a commission for that batch of orders. I’ll go to the Human Resources Department and resign later.”
When Vivian heard this, the smile on her face became more genuine. “When did I say I was going to fire you?”
Betty looked at Vivian in surprise.
Vivian asked, “Your mother was in urgent need of surgery half a year ago. Did you use the commission on this?”
Betty nodded slightly. “Yes.”
Vivian continued, “The procurement department is a lucrative position, and few people can hold it in. So, after seeing the abnormality in the accounts, I had someone review all the purchases you handled during your nine years of office and found that there was a problem with this one.”
“Betty, I believe that you had no other choice but to make such a move, but don’t let this happen again! I know it’s hard for you to divorce your husband and raise three children and a mother on your own, but that’s not a reason for you to be corrupt!”
Betty’s face turned red and she said in embarrassment, “Thank you for giving me this opportunity, Boss. I won’t embezzle again! I’ll save up the money to return it to Mr. Edwin!”
Seeing Betty’s expression, Vivian patted her on the shoulder and encouraged her, “Do a good job. The higher the factory’s profit, the higher the year-end bonus. I will not mistreat the people who follow me wholeheartedly!”
