The Silver Crescent Alpha Prince

Chapter 331 - Move You Near My Office!

Lily opened the door of the office—a huge room that occupied the corner was built on a large space of the floor with floor-to-ceiling windows that lent view to two directions: Seventh Avenue to the North, and City's Museum in the front, which was just a few blocks away. The two remaining walls were covered with several paintings, a door, bookshelves and photos of her mother and father. A large mahogany table was neat with just a computer, a pen stand, few files and photographs of two kids. The right corner was occupied by leather sofas and a center table, which was enough for eight people to sit comfortably.

Dawn walked to the office desk where her father used to sit. She traced the edge of the wooden desk with a soft smile on her face. This was such a wonderful moment. She traced the chair lightly and then looked at Daryn. He gestured to her to go on and sit on it. She stepped in front of it and sat down. She closed her eyes, said a small prayer and when she looked up, she said, "I would like to meet with all the Vice Presidents of the Company."

Suddenly the door of the office opened and Lily turned sharply to see who had the guts to come to it without informing. Her eyes bulged when she saw David McDow walking in. "Wh— what are you doing here?" she said with a twisted face. How dare this man entered the Sapphire building. "I will call the security to throw you out!" Lily was shaking with anger and hatred for the man in front of her. "How dare you come here? What do you want now?"

"I have called him," said Dawn.

Lily couldn't believe what she just heard. "Wh— what? B— but—" she stuttered.

"David McDow will be joining as Vice President of the Company. I haven't yet decided his department, but until then he will stay by my side." Dawn said this so clearly that Lily gulped. She couldn't even say no to Dawn's decision because she didn't want to risk her leaving the office. She took in a deep breath in order to calm down.

Daryn watched proudly as to how his wife was calling the shots. He sent her a mental kiss.

David McDow walked up to Dawn and shook his hands with her. "Thanks for giving me this opportunity. My hands are itching to start working."

Encouraged, she said, "You are welcome aboard." Then she looked at Lily and repeated, "And now I would like to call upon every Vice President of the Company for the first meeting. Who is my secretary?"

Lily pursed her lips. "I haven't assigned one for you, so you can share mine for the time being." She didn't assign a new one on purpose and wanted to keep a common one in order to keep a tab on Dawn's activities. "But what I am going to do is call upon all the VPs and schedule a meeting for you."

"Okay! I am waiting. I want them all to be here in half an hour."

Lily nodded and went out. She was determined to attend every meeting with Dawn.

"Okay wife, I am off to inspect this place. Most likely expect me to move you near my office!"

Dawn was about to deny it when Daryn marched out.

David McDow smiled at the two. Then he went to Dawn and said, "Here's the report that you had asked me to make for you. There's a lot to go through."

Dawn took the report and scanned the pages one after the other as David sat down. On his iPad he showed her more graphs of various departments. They didn't even know when thirty minutes passed and all the VPs started to trickle in. With nervous expressions on their face, they looked at Dawn, who would stand up and shake hands with them confidently. Some of them welcomed her eagerly, while two had pinched expressions. She walked to the couch in the corner of the office and the VPs followed her. Even though she was feeling awkward, she straightaway went to business. She didn't want to waste time. From the corner of her eye she watched Lily joining them. She scoffed internally. It was expected.

For the next two hours, Dawn covered only two departments: Marketing and IT. Marketing department wasn't doing much and IT was sitting on old projects. However, her main concern was Finance. The Vice President of that department presented his file to her, which she immediately opened.

A man in his late fifties, Doug Langston, watched her with narrowed eyes and a doubtful expression as she read the file, turning each page slowly. She was so young, almost half his age. Did she even have that kind of caliber? He sneered on the inside as he shifted on his sofa in a clear mock. Lily Wyatt made a huge mistake of getting her here. He should have been the Managing Director since he was the senior most in hierarchy at the moment. 'Count your days Dawn Silver. I will throw you out of this office in less than a week,' he thought.

He was suspicious that Dawn would definitely go in for massive overhauls but he was ready for it. He would fight tooth and nail.

Dawn looked up and asked him while pointing to a figure in a page, "What is this 'Go Green' project and why have we invested so much money in it?"

Doug squared his shoulders. "That is the project we had started for the Starfish Refineries."

Dawn crossed her hands across her chest. "Please tell me the details."

Doug coughed a little. The girl was such a douche. She didn't know anything about the business and was heading it? Lily Wyatt was surely out of her head. He opened the button of his coat. Confidently, he started, "Starfish was built on an ecologically sensitive land. We were asked by the government to cooperate with the environmentalists to preserve the nature that surrounded the refinery. Since preserving nature requires a lot of manpower, we have to spend that kind of money."

"But spending a million dollars in a year on them is a lot!" she said.

The kid was a moron—he judged it immediately. "No it isn't. There are a lot of radical environmentalists that we have to take care of. If it were up to them, then they would have got rid of the refinery very soon." His confidence oozed like he owned the place.

"Mr. Langston, stop financing them with effect from now," Dawn commanded.

Doug stared at her as his mind stuttered at her sudden decision. "No, we can't do that!" he retorted. "If we do that the environmentalists are going to come after us."

Lily leaned forward while David had a smile on his face. Earlier Starfish was handling this project and it was strange that now Doug was looking after it.

"Which environmentalist will come after us?" Dawn asked tilting her head to the left with a frown. She saw that the door opened and Daryn walked in.

Immediately the VPs rose to their feet. It was as if they had seen God himself. Daryn ignored them all and walked over to his wife. Once again the alpha showed that this was his possession, so he kissed her on the cheek and said, "I am leaving for now. Will come in the evening to collect you." Saying that he ambled out of the room leaving everyone stunned and speechless. The man carried so much weight in the business circle.
