Never Late, Never Away Chapter 425

Finnick was still highly respected among his employees. When they heard his request, theyobediently returned to their seats.

At the same time, Noah came back with a microphone. He passed it to Finnick then took a few stepsback.

With the microphone in hand, Finnick’s voice rang through the office.

“I know that everyone is worried about the company's future. Here, I can tell all of you that someonepurposely sabotaged Finnor Group. With that said, everyone need not be worried. We have found away to deal with it, but we will need some time. Meanwhile, I hope everyone can put in their best atwork. The person behind it hopes that we would falter before he sends the last blow to destroy ourcompany. Please do not be fooled. Let's come together and get through this together. I will assureyou that I will do my best to protect this family we have here in Finnor Group, and I will protect yourjobs. Likewise, please continue to work hard.”

Then, Finnick put down his microphone. No one replied, and he looked around to see dullexpressions on everyone's faces.

He knew that his words were not enough to dispel everyone's worries. However, there was nothingelse he could do at this point to convince them.

Suddenly a female's voice rang from the corner of the room. “Yes, Mr. Norton. We believe you, andwe will continue to do our best at work!” Everyone turned to look at the person in surprise.

At the centre of everyone's attention, the woman's face turned red. Despite so, she courageouslytook a step forward after a short hesitation. “I worked very hard to get into Finnor Group, and thecompany did not disappoint me. The employee benefits are great, and the promotion criteria arereasonable as well. As long as you are willing to put in the work, your salary will increase. I believeeveryone thinks like me. Since we tried so hard to get into a good company like this, why should weleave then? Besides, everyone is confident of Mr. Norton's abilities. I believe that under hisleadership, we can emerge stronger from this setback.”

After rambling, the female employee looked around nervously. Colleagues who were usually closeto her chimed, “We believe in you, Mr. Norton.”

“Yes, Mr. Norton. We will do our best.”

“Mr. Norton, you have my support!”

Sometimes, words from a peer were more impactful than a leader, and more and more employeesbegin to respond too.

"Yes, Mr. Norton, we believe you. Let's do this together.”

“Yes, Finnor Group will not crumble that easily!”

"Alright, all of us should get back to work.”

"At the very most, we will not get paid for a few months. Despite so, we have been receiving a salarythat is higher than the market rate. We will not starve without a month's worth of salary. “Someoneelse even added, “Who knows, if we manage to get through this, Mr. Norton may give us a bonus.”“Hahaha...” Hearing the colleague's words, everyone began to laugh. Instantly, the mood in theroom lightened.

“Thank you for all your support,” Finnick spoke in the microphone. “I promise that no matter whathappens to Finnor Group, I will still pay out your salaries. Now, I have to discuss with the board ofdirectors about the matter. All of you can return to work.”

Then, Finnick returned the microphone to Noah. He gave a ninety-degree bow before he turned toleave.

As he walked past the employee who first replied to him, he whispered, “Thank you.” Shyly, shestuttered, “No...problem.”

He nodded and smiled at the lady, then rushed to the meeting room.

As soon as he pushed open the meeting room door, Finnick was greeted by a ruckus. When thedirectors who were arguing saw Finnick’s arrival, they exploded
