Ex-wife, Please Come Back

Chapter 331 Work Hard If Not Perfectly

Jacob's mouth was shut. The meeting room was enveloped in silence, and not a single breath dared to give out any disturbance to the vibe.

In this world, many things could happen beyond one's control. If he didn't reduce the staff, he would have to pay the price soon enough when the company would inevitably fall into a difficult situation.

However, today he had to make that choice, and it was rather a hard choice for he knew it would offend a lot of people. He didn't have the luxury to talk with every single person who was concerned, and he passed the difficult responsibility to the hands of the directors.

To top it all off, these directors had no choice but to accept. It felt almost like they were playing a game in Jacob's palm. It didn't matter what he was feeling.

He knew it was a natural thing that was bound to happen, but as of this moment, he couldn't help but feel upset.

He quickly stood up and walked out of the room without a word after staying seated for quite some time. From now on, he vowed to himself that he would act as the captain willing to go down with his ship.

He was married to the company. The only way he could see that would drive it to greater heights, he must be willing to sacrifice even his reputation. This was the main reason that things ended up as complicated as this.

He had to sever the ties with the others as he explained the situation as clear as he could. No matter in what angle he tried to assess everything, he knew someone had to take the blame and act as the villain. Whatever the case, he had no regrets.

He took out the company's name list as soon as he returned to his office. Some names could be seen to have already been crossed out. He looked down with an enigmatic expression as he carefully examined the document.

He whipped out his pen, and began to cross out some more names. He leaned and supported his chin with his left hand, and held his pen tightly with his right. It didn't take long before he started to get lost in his own little world.

As he started reading the names of the people in his list, a surreal, almost eerie feeling came over him as he continued to browse. He was pretty sure he had some impressions on some of them in person. But now, he had already decided. He had to make the right choice and detach himself from sentimentality because it would only hold him back.

Somehow, he managed to keep his emotions at bay, and he didn't even sigh so much as to show his regret. However, he knew in his heart that what he was doing right now would sure change the fate of many people in his company.

He didn't bother discussing this matter with James. He found it not necessary to share the burden with someone else. Therefore, he could not afford to make a reckless mistake as he continued to cross out names. Now, everything was going according to his plan.
