Chapter 253 You Can Leave Now
Isabella looked at him coldly, "So your daily work tasks are just flirting, drinking coffee, and waiting for your subordinates to serve you, is that it?"
Doyle sneered, "What I do is none of your business. Are you out of your mind?"
Isabella also let out a cold laugh, "What you do is indeed none of my business, but you're taking the salary I pay you, drinking my company's coffee, sitting in my company's office, yet reporting your work to Hayden and acting like Hayden's dog - that's a big problem."
"What?"
Doyle's expression changed, "What do you mean the salary you pay me? When was my salary ever from you..."
At this point, Doyle suddenly stopped.
She remembered Lila mentioning that the new chairman would be coming to the company today.
Looking at Lila standing to the side with a complicated expression, Doyle was shocked, "She is..."
Lila looked at him with slight sympathy, "That's right, what I was about to say is, this is our new chairman."
Doyle's face went pale immediately.
"Ms. Taylor, this is a misunderstanding, I... I didn't know I couldn't report work matters to Hayden, I thought... I thought it was okay..."
"Okay?" Isabella laughed, "Okay what? Can't figure out who the actual chairman of this company is? Hayden? Chase? Or me? If you can't figure it out, you can get lost and stop disgusting me!"
Doyle quickly said, "No! I know now, I know! From now on, I'll only report Celestial Jewels matters to you!"
"From now on?" Isabella frowned with a twisted smile, "You don't have a 'from now on.' You can leave right now."
"Ms. Taylor, I was wrong, I really know I was wrong. You're the chairman, you're the one I should be serving."
"Now you know you were wrong? What were you doing before?" Isabella curled her lips in cold mockery, "Something this important, you just told Hayden directly, what do you take me for? Do you even know what my relationship with Hayden is? Don't tell me you think we have a good relationship?"
Isabella thought about how she wasn't even Hayden's biological daughter - he didn't give birth to her or raise her!
Nothing at all!
That hypocrite Hayden could even marry her off to any man without hesitation for profit. Why did she take Celestial Jewels if not to make it completely hers?
Wasn't it to separate Celestial Jewels from the Taylor family?
And these people were still working for Hayden, still secretly communicating with Hayden!
Isabella grabbed the landline phone on Doyle's desk that he used to secretly communicate with Hayden and smashed it hard.
"So blatant! You didn't even bother to hide it, did you? Did you think about the consequences when I found out? Did you think I'm stupid and wouldn't figure it out? Or did you think I wouldn't care?"
The perfectly good landline was smashed to pieces, and Doyle stumbled backward in fright.
The commotion had already attracted quite a few onlookers.
Many people were pressed against the glass watching.
"So scary, is that the new chairman?"
"Looks like we won't have easy days ahead."
"What happened?" Lowell walked over leisurely with his coffee, "Why such a big tantrum?"
"I heard it's because Mr. Cunningham was still in contact with Mr. Taylor and told him about internal company matters. That's why Ms. Taylor flew into a rage."
When Lowell heard this, his face immediately changed.
"Mr. Warren, why is your face so pale? What's wrong?" someone asked with concern.
"Nothing." Lowell looked through the glass again and saw Doyle actually kneel down to beg for mercy, only to be kicked away by Isabella.
"Where's HR? Get over here!" Isabella said coldly.
The HR director rushed over immediately, opening his mouth tremulingly, "Ms. Taylor, what can I do for you?"
"Fire him! Take him to process the paperwork right now."
"Yes."
The HR director didn't dare delay for a moment and directly pulled Doyle away to handle the procedures.
Lowell watched this scene, his legs going weak.
But...
Isabella probably hadn't found out about him, right?
Right, she definitely hadn't found out about him, she only found out about Doyle.
Thinking this, Lowell was about to head toward his office.
At the same time, Isabella's sharp gaze had already locked onto the back of Lowell's head, saying in a low voice, "Mr. Warren, in such a hurry to leave - where are you going?"
A chill ran down the back of Lowell's head.
He turned around trembling, his words stuttering, "Ms. Taylor..."
Isabella smiled mockingly.
Isabella didn't bother wasting words with him and said directly, "Starting today, you don't need to come to the company anymore either."
Lowell was completely stunned.
Doyle and Lowell were dragged out one by one.
The office staff watched this brutal scene with mixed feelings.
"So brutal."
"Looks like the new chairman doesn't have a good relationship with Mr. Chase Taylor or Mr. Hayden Taylor."
"Regardless of their relationship, the new chairman has taken office, yet they're still bowing and scraping to the former chairman - that's really not taking the new chairman seriously, right? Who could stand for that?"
"But this new chairman is so decisive. Our company only has six departments total, and she fired three department managers as soon as she arrived!"
"..."
Isabella saw everyone looking at her with a bit of fear and knew she had achieved her goal for today.
Isabella glanced at everyone present, "You need to distinguish between the past and the future."
Hayden and Chase were Celestial Jewels' past, and she was Celestial Jewels' future.
If they couldn't recognize this, then there was no need for them to stay here and disgust her.
With the managers of the marketing, procurement, and production departments dealt with, as for finance, HR, and the design department, she had investigated - the managers of these departments were all fresh graduates from top universities with master's and doctoral degrees, newcomers to the workplace who got in through competitive selection. They had no personal connections with Hayden and Chase and were still blank slates, so there was no need to deal with them.
Besides, after today, she believed they wouldn't dare knowingly break the rules.
Isabella ordered a cup of coffee for everyone, then left the company.
——
"What?"
"She actually fired you?"
When Hayden heard this news, his expression immediately became somewhat gloomy.
How could this be?
Isabella had clearly promised him at the dinner table last night that she wouldn't fire people randomly!
Yet she turned around and fired two more department managers!
Hayden hung up the phone, feeling inexplicably panicked by Isabella's actions, because her behavior made him feel out of control.
Clearing out all his people completely - this obviously meant she didn't want him to have any connection with Celestial Jewels anymore. This was telling him that she was Celestial Jewels' new person in power!
Chase rushed in, clearly having also heard the news. His expression was even worse, "Dad, what exactly does Isabella mean by this? What is she trying to do?"
