Chapter 1063

The middle-aged man shivered and quickly replied, “It’ll be done within

three days!

“We must also get the Hublots’ toy factory within seven days!” Hera

added.

The middle-aged man nodded in agreement.

Hera turned her cold gaze toward the Procurement Department manager and asked, “When can we get the equipment back?”

The Procurement Department manager gulped nervously and replied,

On the 15th of next month…”

Hera let out a cold laugh. Leaning back in her chair, her slender and

fair fingers began tapping on the tabletop.

The Procurement Department manager hurriedly explained, “Ms.

Lewis, this really isn’t our fault. There’s a semiconductor compa Balaria that placed an order after us, but their lithography ma

arrived last week.

“They hadn’t even begun stocking up yet when we placed the ord first. The supplier says they’re short on inventory and are currently working on increasing production!”

Hera took a deep breath. It was true that the blame was not solely on the Procurement Department. It was more of Dallard giving Longford an attitude.

It was said that customers should be treated well, yet they insisted on

disrespecting theirs. Moliga had to be giving some support for them

to act like this.

After a while, Hera asked, “How much deposit did we pay?”

“Three million!”

“Does the contract specify a delivery date?”

“Yes, but there’s a provision in the contract stating that if incomplete

parts or other uncontrollable factors lead to the inability to supply, it

doesn’t count as a breach of contract!” the man said, his confidence

deflating. The other senior executives also frowned.

Hera’s expression grew colder. “With seven years of procurement

experience, you still fell into this pit?”

The Procurement Department manager broke out in a cold sweat. At

that time, he only wanted to get the lithography machine as soon as

possible and had not given it thorough consideration.

Hera continued, “If they’re short of parts for a year and have power outages for a year as well, do we have to wait a year too?”

The Procurement Department manager turned red with embarrassment and kept his head down, not daring to speak.

“Go get your salary settled this afternoon and start looking for a ne job!”

All color drained from the Procurement Department manager’s face. Ms. Lewis, please give me another chance. I’ll personally go to Dallard. I’ll cover all the travel expenses myself!”

“No need,” Hera said. She turned to her secretary standing nearby.”

Bring up the assistant manager of the Procurement Department!”

The secretary nodded lightly and then dialed said individual’s number.

The Procurement Department manager was seized with

hopelessness. Gritting his teeth, he said, “Ms. Lewis, if you dismiss me now, you’ll have to compensate me with nearly a hundred thousand dollars in salary!”

“I’m already thinking about how we won’t be getting back this three million. Do you think I care about your measly salary?” Hera’s face was icy as she said this.

The Procurement Department manager did not give up. “Just you

wait. I’ll call the chairman!”

Everyone’s ears perked up at that. The Procurement Department

manager was transferred over from the headquarters. They also

wanted to see if the president could bypass the chairman’s authority and dismiss high-level managers directly.

“Mr. Cal!” Harrison’s voice sounded from the other end of th hone.

“Sir, your daughter dismissed me!”

“Mr. Cal, you’re at the age of retirement. It’s time to rest and gi

more opportunities to the younger generation!”

“Sir, you…”

Cal was stunned. The chairman’s words were clear-he was old, an

it was time for the younger generation to take over.

“Mr. Cal, I won’t say much more. You’ve seen Hera’s growth over the past two months. I won’t interfere in her decisions from my end.”

Cal inhaled sharply, Ending the call

daze. Just as he closed the door, t

the wall.

“Mr. Calcraft.”
