A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 321 Same old .

Heres a stack that needs your signature ! Franco announced with a grin as he spread the documents across the desk .

And this pile here ? Thats the financial reports you need to glance over .

Over here , weve got the latest changes in upper management .

Some top level shifts across a few companies , all summarized for you .

And , oh , heres the rental income for the year .

Domestically , weve only collected a hundred million dollars .

Youve been way too generous with the rent reductions , so the income is little .

Some youve deferred are still pending .

Franco guided Calliope to the plush office chair , plopping her down before the mountain of paperwork .

Calliope massaged her temples , feeling overwhelmed .

Franco , arent you better at handling this headache inducing stuff than I am ? Havent we agreed that you manage all this ? Cant I sign my name and be done with it ? You know Im here for the auction , not to get buried in admin work ! No way ! Franco narrowed his eyes , his voice firm .

Ive finally got you here , and you think you can escape ? Youre finishing this today or youre not leaving ! Every time with the excuses , making me deal with it .

Is this how you want to run a business ? Franco teased .

I might as well run off with all the cash ! He looked at her sternly , which could pin someone to the spot .

My dear boss , at least glance over them .

And check in on the club too ! Do I need to ? I trust you completely , and all our top managers too ! Everyones so much more capable than I am ! Seriously , Franco , the clubs thriving because of you .

I knew saving you that time wasnt a mistake ! Can I leave now ? Calliope attempted to rise stealthily , but Franco gently pushed her back into the chair .

He looked at her seriously , Trust is great , but not everyone deserves it .

Remember the traitor last month ? But you caught him without a hitch ! Calliope replied nonchalantly .

Ive said it before .

These matters are in your hands ! We can manage , but youve got to shoulder your bit too ! Franco insisted , with a touch of gravity in his voice .

Start tackling this , or youre banned from the auction ! Whos the boss here , anyway ? Calliope tried to muster some authority .

That doesnt work on me .

Im not scared of you ! Franco retorted with a smirk .

Calliope sighed , resigned to her fate , and started sifting through the work as Franco had directed .

Though she was more than capable , the sheer volume was daunting .

Ever since her grandfather had passed the reins of the family assets to her , wealth had snowballed .

Calliope had a knack for turning investments into gold .

Eventually , she entrusted these ventures to a talented team , and business boomed even further .

Initially , shed manage things sometimes , but the sprawling ventures became overwhelming .

Just looking at the figures made her dizzy .

For years now , shed been trying to be more hands off , but Franco wouldnt allow it .

Every quarter , hed hunt her down , ensuring she played a more active role , at least for a few days .
