Chapter 259 Hannah Dealt with the Accident Calmly
The news that Lorie announced to cut the relation with Miguel was spread widely in Kensbury City,
The stock prices of Cooper Group had dropped dramatically recently due to her father’s case and her
grandmother Lorie’s unreasonable acts.
All the stock prices began dropping since the opening, and then kept declining until they hit the limit
down. Cooper Group had lost hundreds of million in the past three days, which had become the
headlines of each financial news.
Some experts analyzed it and predicted that Cooper Group would go bankruptcy this time if they
couldn’t bring about an upswing. And their best advice was that Cooper Group might survive the
accident if the CEO Miguel stepped down and let someone else to take over Cooper Group.
Hannah was reading the news in down spirit.
Rose knocked at the door of her office and said, “Ms Hannah.”
Rose, who was always calm and cool, looked kinda nervous this moment.
“What’s wrong?”
“Some of the employees have proposed to go on a strike.” Rose said, “It happened not only in the head
office, but also in every branch office of the company. These employees requested Mr Chairman to
show up to explain the whole situation, then quit and let some capable one take it over. They said Mr
Chairman shouldn’t hold the shares of Cooper Group and get more than ten thousand employees
involved!”
Hannah was silent for several seconds, looking like she was calming herself down.
“How many of the employees second that?” she asked.
“At least 40% of the employees are in favor of it.”
“So, we must do something “Hannah concluded.
“But what should we do? Do we really tell Mr Chairman to quit?”
“Of course not! We’ll hold a video meeting for all the whole staff of Cooper Group in half an hour.
Connect all the branch offices to the video meeting. The meeting content is, ‘Explanations to Mr
Chairman’s recent personal issues.”
“You’ll hold the meeting? Or Mr Chairman will?” asked Rose.
“I’ll do it.”
“It’s a big meeting. Can you control it, Ms Hannah?”
“I’ve died once. I don’t think there’s anything else that I can’t nail!” Hannah said fearlessly.
Rose was confused. What did she mean by saying “I’ve died once”?
“Go prepare for the meeting.” Hannah reminded her.
Rose came back to earth immediately and left quickly.
Hannah took a deep breath.
Roger was a real piece of work. Or, was there someone pushing it for him in the dark?
Half an hour later, Hannah sat in the top video meeting room of Cooper Group. She looked at the
camera, and more than ten thousand employees of Cooper Group watched her online.
Hannah still got a little nervous since this was the first time that she had faced so many people, though
it was through the camera.
She breathed calmly and said to the camera, “Hi everyone, this is Hannah. I’m the daughter of Mr
Chairman, Miguel Cooper, and I’m the sales director of Cooper Group. Commissioned by my father,
now I’d like to give face-to-face explanations to the recent personal issues of my father. I’m speaking
for Miguel because he’s being monitored by the courthouse now. And he can’t take part in any
occasion like this. Thanks for your understanding.”
After the brief opening. Hannah went straight to the point, “First, with regard to the evidences that
Miguel has taken bribes or evaded taxes. actually, it’s still under investigation. We haven’t received any
definite answers from the police and courthouse yet. It means, he’s still under investigation. So, please
don’t exaggerate the facts or confuse others. And I’m telling you all clearly that my father, the Chairman
of Cooper Group, is innocent. Please trust him as who he is!”
“Next, on the news that my grandmother has announced to cut the relation with my father and accused
him of being ungrateful and heartless. Let me be clear with all of you here. It’s not true. My father has
bought the old house which my grandmother is living in now, and covered all her life expenses. My
father spends over three hundred thousand to support her life every month. We’ve got stamped bank
slips, which means we didn’t make it up.”
“You might be curious why my grandmother did that to my father. I guess the reason is the same as
why you don’t trust my father. My grandmother has never set foot in business circle and can only
conclude from the gossips that Cooper Group will be completely ruined in my father’s hands, so she
forced my father to quit in such an extreme way. I could understand her good intention, and she did it
for the Cooper Family: That was why my father and I chose to be silent. We believe everything will be
clear when things are settled.”
“Last, I declare it once again that Cooper Group won’t go bankruptcy because of my father’s situation
for the time, and it’s bullshit that Cooper Group will be closed down as long as my father is still the
CEO. My father will be in court on Friday. Yes, it’s the day after tomorrow. I believe you can wait two
more days. If you really can’t, you can resign and leave. We, Cooper Group, accept anyone’s
resignation report and won’t make it difficult for you. In two days, my father’s case will be closed. If my
father is found guilty, not only you, but I’ll also make my father give out the shares of Cooper Group.”
After saying that, Hannah bowed deeply to the camera.
It was a speech of ten minutes only. She didn’t seek sympathy or interact with the staff. She just
brought it to an end. All the employees who were making troubles were all calmed down within half an
hour after the meeting.
Rose just couldn’t admire Hannah more. She was only twenty-two. How could she do such a great job?
She had settled the crowd with the words ‘two days’. If they couldn’t wait two more days, it only meant
that those troublemakers were not standing on the company’s position. Instead, they were causing
conflicts inside the company.
What impressed her more was the explanation on her grandmother’s issue. “I guess the reason is the
same as why you don’t trust my father”. She said that and eased the tension between her grandmother
and her family tactfully.
It was so perfect and convincing. Right now, she could only see Hannah as God.
“Rose.”
“Yes, Ms Hannah.” Rose came back to earth from her deep admiration.
“Upload the video meeting to the internet.”
“What?” Rose was stunned and confused.
“I did great. It should be watched by more people.” Hannah smiled. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Of course Rose knew Hannah was only kidding. Obviously, she did it to calm the outsiders down since
they’d misunderstood Cooper Group. At least, she could stable the stock market a little. They were
losing great sum of money now.
Rose went out to take care of her work.
Hannah’s phone rang. She looked at it and answered the phone, “Oscar.”
“Come home early tonight. We’ve got big breakthrough in the case.”
She just knew it! Charles would only scare her, while Oscar would always surprise her.
