After Rebirth I Married My EX- Husband's (Enemy Laurel)
Chapter 135

Chapter 135 Avril Is Envious

The sales conference room of the Lambert Group...

Laurel sat in the middle seat.

The central manager of the sales department sat on both sides, accompanied by supervisors and some key employees.

Laurel glanced with her eyes.

At that moment, she saw Avril.

Due to Gemma's passing, Kermit, Seth, and Avril all took bereavement leave and stayed at home.

Laurel was very surprised. She thought, "Didn't Avril take a bereavement leave? She should be at home now."

"How did she come to work early?"

Avril noticed Laurel's gaze and quickly said, "Gemma has been buried. I'm just sad at home, so I came to work early. Maybe work can distract me a bit and help me relax my mood.""" Laurel nodded slightly and didn't say much.

Seeing Laurel being so cold to her, Avril started to scrutinize Laurel.

Avril thought, "Yesterday, Laurel's actions of forcing Leon out and pushing Robert to step back shocked our family. We never expected Robert to be driven away from the company Mouchers

by Laurel. From now on, Robert can only enjoy pure dividends and will no longer be involved in the company's decision-making."

My dad was very uneasy when he found out about this news.

My dad worked hard to win over Robert, a senior leader, to support him. Now, Robert has been brought down by Laurel like this, leaving in ruins. It's truly unacceptable. But the fact remains.

My dad could only make me, my brother, and himself come to the company early.

We were really worried about the few days we were not there, Laurel made huge changes to the company.

We absolutely cannot let Laurel develop.

"If Laurel had succeeded, then our family would never have had a chance to control the Lambert Group."

So early this morning, Avril came to the company.

As soon as she arrived at the company gate, she saw Laurel. At that moment, she intended to approach her, but she saw Hayden getting out of the car.

Hayden looked very handsome.

Hayden had a bad reputation before, so the real upper-class young ladies didn't pay attention to him. But since marrying Laurel, it seems like Hayden's image has changed, and he has. been developing in a positive direction. He has even surpassed Bruno.

Chapter 1 35 AvedisTvis

Ever since Bruno embarrassed himself at the wedding, he has been feeling down.

It is said that the Scott family's finances were greatly affected due to Bruno's scandal.

Avril thought, "I don't know how others are currently evaluating Bruno."

Anyway, I now feel that compared to Hayden, Bruno had no shining points. Originally, I used to like Bruno...

Now...

Now...

Avril gritted her teeth.

Avril went crazy with jealousy when she thought about this morning's interaction between Hayden and Laurel. Hayden was looking at Laurel affectionately.

Avril thought, "I don't know why Laurel was so lucky."

Why was she so much better than me since she was born?

Why could she live such a glamorous and brilliant life now?

And yet I had nothing.

"We had a meeting today mainly to discuss some sales difficulties that the sales department is currently facing. We need to focus on two projects, one is the unfinished building in Marigold Estates, and the other is the customer attraction. problem at Daybreak Mall." Laurel exuded a strong presence.

Everyone in the meeting room was very quiet. 1788 Wouchers

"Let's talk about the abandoned building in the Marigold Estates. We had contracted this project to Glory Construction, with whom we had a close partnership. However, the owner of Glory Construction has absconded with the funds, and the police are currently unable to locate him. As a result, the construction site has been left deserted. I have reviewed the development plan for this property, and its location int Rosegrad City is currently the best available. Therefore, I believe that the residential community built here would be highly sought after. However, due to the departure of the contractor, we are unable to proceed with the planning and sales of the property. This clearly affects the sales department's revenue for this year. Therefore, I will personally apply to the board of directors for this project, in order to explore alternative ways to proceed with the construction. I won't go into further details at this time. Now that you are aware of this situation, please be prepared to initiate the marketing plan for the Marigold Estates at any time."

Everyone at the scene listened attentively.

Laurel spoke up again, "Today, let's focus on discussing the issue of attracting merchants to Daybreak Mall. Kaylin, what is the current situation at Daybreak Mall?" Kaylin respectfully walked forward.

Kaylin projected the PPT she worked on last night and introduced, "This is the current situation of Daybreak Mall. We have been building Daybreak Mall for a year, with a total of 12 floors and nearly 1,000 shops. Currently, less than 200 businesses are operating. As far as I know, only 130 of them are truly operating normally, while other businesses have Chapter 1 35 Avni in Envious

chosen to close down due to severe losses. Once the contract period is over, these businesses will terminate their agreements with us."

"The Lambert Group invested 320 million dollars to construct Daybreak Mall, and currently we have only recovered 3.2 million dollars. In other words, from the construction until now, we have incurred a total loss of 316.8 million dollars on this project: Daybreak Mall is considered one of the largest loss-making projects for the Lambert Group at present," Kaylin solemnly explained. "According to our previous plans for Daybreak Mall, we aimed to recoup the investment within three years and achieve a profit of 30% of the investment amount within five years. This means that within five years, the revenue from Daybreak Mall would reach 416 million dollars. However, based on the current leasing situation of Daybreak Mall, it is impossible for us to achieve our previous plans."

Kaylin finished her presentation and then respectfully came down from the podium.

Laurel shifted her gaze away from the screen. "Which

department was responsible for attracting investment for this project before?"

"It was us," said Henry Compton, the center manager of Group A in the sales department. "I was responsible for implementing this project at that time." "Why aren't there any merchants willing to open stores at Daybreak Mall?" Laurel asked.

"Daybreak Mall was constructed after careful consideration. Originally, it was expected to become a thriving commercial

district, but it encountered three situations. Firstly, due to large-scale demolitions, many local residents moved away, resulting in the cancellation of the local subway station and inconvenient transportation. As a result, the mall lacked foot. traffic, making it difficult to attract businesses. Secondly, Daybreak Mall was intended to be the largest high-end luxury brand mall in Rosegrad City, but currently, not a single first- tier luxury store is willing to settle in Daybreak Mall. Without the presence of major luxury brands, we are unable to attract other brand merchants. Thirdly, Daybreak Mall was built to the highest standards and incurred significant costs. Therefore, the cost of attracting businesses is higher than that of ordinary shops. Considering this, merchants are unlikely to choose us." Laurel nodded.

She said, "In the afternoon, you accompany me to go to Daybreak Mall and have a look."

"Okay," Henry nodded.

"Now, regarding this project, I will make a work schedule. Before assigning tasks to everyone, let's first establish our goals," Laurel said solemnly. Everyone respectfully waited for Laurel's orders.
