"In my opinion, many of you are not up to par and should be dismissed," Seth began. "Moreover, our company's operations must remain entirely legal in the future. Now, those whose names I call out, step forward!"Seth started naming names. He selected 25 individuals out of the 200 or so present. Among them, five were men while the remaining were all women. Seth had handpicked these individuals after he analyzed their facial features and deemed them relatively suitable.The rest of the employees who had not been called out began feeling uneasy. Could it be that Seth was going to fire all of them? They all wondered anxiously what was going to happen next.Seth then continued, "I've reviewed your salary structure for the past six months. On average, you're earning around 8,000 dollars per month."This was a pretty good salary in Jonesville as the average person's monthly income was typically around 4,000 to 5,000 dollars.Just when they were feeling nervous, Seth said something that l
"You can go get formal training outside the company. Once you've obtained the relevant certificates, you can come back to work here."Seth was adept at mixing incentives with penalties. As expected, these people suddenly felt a glimmer of hope.After sending them away, Seth turned his attention to the 25 individuals, including Lambo.First, he said to Lambo, "You will maintain your position as general manager, but I'm giving you a three-month probation period. If you can't lead the company in a new direction by then, you should just resign on your own."Lambo quickly professed his loyalty, "Boss, rest assured; I'll do my best and dedicate myself to the company."Nodding, Seth then looked at the others. "As for the rest of you, you'll be responsible for providing security at my villa. If you perform well, I'll teach you all how to become true warriors apart from the raises and promotions.”Lambo was currently the only warrior in the security company while the others were ordinary
The second security company was relatively small. Handling it was a much simpler process. By around 9:00 pm, those who were meant to remain remained ,and everything had been handled. This ensured there were no more hidden concerns.With Wolf’s efficiency, the background checks for all 24 individuals were completed. They were confirmed to be free of trouble. This gave Seth peace of mind.That very night, Seth allowed them to enter the villa and appointed one of them as the team leader. With the two security companies merging, they would now be under Lambo’s management. Seth had instructed him to initiate a significant expansion which would require them recruiting at least 5,000 more personnel.After he secured land in the suburban area and developed it into a residential area, he would then establish a property management company as well. With that, he would transfer the staff from his companies to this new venture. Property management was another highly profitable business that
The villa was quite large, with over a dozen rooms on the second floor. While Seth was walking down the corridor, one of the rooms to his right opened. The beautiful woman stepped out, asking Seth if Fenton had left. To that, he nodded."Come in!" she ordered.Seth had not heard the voice of the man he was now disguised as earlier. so he could not mimic him. If he spoke, he would give himself away. So, he just followed her into the room.The beautiful woman immediately closed the door and locked it. Seth took in the room. He then looked back at the woman and thought his disguise had failed. The room was embellished with elegant and refined decor that carried with them a touch of sophistication. The curtains were drawn, casting a pinkish hue on everything, which created a sensual atmosphere. At first, Seth thought the beautiful woman had seen through his disguise and was planning to attack him. However, he very quickly realized that something was not right. She was actually d
Seth broke the silence in the quiet corridor. "Will you not see me either?”There was a moment of silence in the room when suddenly, he heard the sound of various objects falling to the ground. He could imagine that Alaska had accidentally knocked some things over as she was rushing to the door.The door opened, and when Alaska saw Seth, the smile faded from her face.Smiling, Seth peeled off the mask from his face.Like a rollercoaster, Alaska’s emotions plummeted one moment before soaring the next. "Is it really you, Seth?""Yes, it's me."Alaska took a deep breath. She was very familiar with the scent of the man she longed for. It was indeed him. She quickly pulled him into the room, locked the door, and then hugged him tightly."Seth, I can't believe I got to you again. I'm so happy. This feels like a dream."I realized that I had fallen for you completely a long time ago. I feel like I’m losing my mind every day I don’t get to see you. I thought we'd never get to see eac
That family, however, might run into trouble this time. It might even go into decline. They should never have set their sights on Alaska. He had spent time getting to know her, thus developing a great fondness for this kind, beautiful, gentle, and charming woman. Alaska was also his only hope of making a breakthrough past rank nine. Seth would never allow anyone to ruin that."So, you don't want to marry that man, right?" Seth asked.Alaska shook her head. "I don't want to, of course not. I like you, Seth, and I will never like another man in this lifetime."Seth smiled. "You don’t have to marry him as long as you don't want to. No one can force you to do something you don't want to do. I mean every word of it!"Alaska was still unable to fully grasp the power behind Seth's words at this moment and thought he was just trying to comfort her. She did not know that Seth was the only Peak Nine-ranked Warrior in Longford. The power contained within Seth was far more than any long-es
The beautiful woman gazed at Seth with a soft, alluring gaze as she said, "Why don't you come in?" Her voice was gentle and seductive.The woman had slept soundly since her light and dark energies were balanced after the 'treatment' Seth gave her earlier. When she woke up and saw he was not beside her, she felt a bit disappointed. She quickly got dressed, and when she opened the door, she happened to see Seth again.Seth had initially considered knocking her out but then changed his mind. The beautiful woman was Alaska’s mother, after all. If she were to go looking for the head of security after he left, it could spell trouble for both him and Alaska.With that in mind, Seth entered the room. Using the same method as he did before, he pressed her against the corner of the wall, and then...Half an hour later, the woman lay on the ground, completely spent. Seth spoke up then, saying, "This cannot happen again next time."The beautiful woman was startled, immediately realizing tha
"Which plot are you two interested in purchasing?"Seth answered, "The land on the north side of the city. I want all of it.”"Oh, alright." The man nodded, but then his eyes widened in the next moment. "What did you just say? I don’t think I heard you clearly."Fortunately, this was all happening within his office. Should it have occurred outside it, his authority would have taken a hit from his loss of composure.Smiling, Seth repeated what he said.The man did not look pleased, however. Instead, he looked at Seth somewhat suspiciously. “I think both of you are aware of the problem with that area. Buying it all would be a huge financial loss. Did you perhaps receive some inside information?"Sitting nearby, Mila lightly tapped her fingers on the table light and replied, "What do you think? Do you really think we’d know anything if even you, who's within the system, haven’t received any information?”The man considered what Mila said but still had his doubts. "Although the land
