Sophie was definitely not joking about surpassing Whitley Group. Instead, she was seriously planning on doing so.

“Of course, I remember. I take everything you ask me to do to heart.” How could I possibly have forgotten about it?

“Has Jennifer been up to any tricks again recently?” She ended up on the losing end back during William’s birthday party, so she would undoubtedly sabotage me relentlessly.

“Not at the moment, but even if she does pull any tricks, it’s nothing for us to worry about.” Victor had great confidence in himself.

While the outside world waxes poetry about Jennifer’s capabilities, she’s actually not all that impressive. If it weren’t for her father, she couldn’t have managed the company so well.

He had some interactions with Jennifer in the past, so he was fully aware of her capabilities.

In truth, the rumors out there were overly exaggerated.

That daughter of the Whitley family wasn’t all that capable in reality.

“Keep your guard up in everything you do.”

Indeed, there isn’t much to fear about Jennifer. However, our rival is not the Whitley family alone, and surpassing the latter is merely our short-term goal, mused Sophie.

“Got it, Ms. Sophie! Don’t worry, for I’ve committed everything you said to memory,” Victor reassured deferentially.

There aren’t many whom I admire in my lifetime, but she’s one of the few.

Her speed in doing that was incredibly fast.

Even professional finance personnel would likely require quite some time to discern the problems in the reports, but she had already identified several issues in just an afternoon.

When the finance manager was summoned to her office, he broke into a cold sweat.
