Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 627

CHAPTER 627 COMBINATION

On the other hand, Elspeth did not expect the virus to be so widespread. Her company's business got affected, and the whole market seemed down. Monday came, and everyone in the meeting room looked absolutely miserable.

"You know what happened. Any suggestions?"

The girl across from Elspeth shook her head. "No. Many things are off-limits as the pace of the epidemic increases."

After that, everyone else chipped in.

"Yeah, I tried my best to come up with something, but no."

"It won't hurt the company, will it?"

"Bah, at most, we'll be forced to stop a lot of stuff."

"Then, how will we make money? Are we going to be fired?"

"Will the company fall at this rate?"

"What are you talking about? The company won't fall."

…

Suddenly, Elspeth cleared her throat and said, "I have a suggestion."

"What's that?"

"We've been preparing for a livestream platform since last year, and it's showing some success. The lockdown forced everyone to stay home, and I think we should use this chance to expand our online ventures."

Everyone's eyes shone at that brilliant suggestion.

"That's a good idea. The Internet business is super profitable, and we should sink our teeth into it."

"I see. We should focus on the Internet stuff for now."

"I disagree," someone said. It was from the corner of the table.

After hearing that, Elspeth turned her attention to that corner and realized the voice of dissent came from a girl she didn't recognize. The girl didn't talk loudly, but she was firm.

Since the girl wasn't objecting for objection's sake, Elspeth asked, "Why? Can you tell us your opinion?"

"Focusing on the Internet business is fine, but we should also consider how brick-and-mortar stores should be run from now on." The girl spoke softly the moment Elspeth looked at her. She sounded a little unsure, as no one supported her.

Elspeth nodded in response. "Continue."

With Elspeth's blessing, the girl said louder, "I don't think we should focus all our efforts on the net. If something happens, we will stand to lose a lot. We should spend a part of our efforts on our brick-and-mortar store. It's the root of our MO."

Elspeth nodded in agreement. "Well said. What's your name?"

"Minerva Henning."

Elspeth's eyes glinted when she heard. "Henning?"

"Yeah. With two Ns."

"I see."

The girl blushed and took some time to calm down.

After the meeting, Elspeth redistributed the company's resources according to Minerva's suggestion, and she promoted her to the manager for their offline business.

Things were getting really bad, and the city was under lockdown after a month. In the meantime, Frank was also locked in the city, and he bought a house beside Raquella's just to get closer to her. He used the excuse of "being her neighbor by accident," of course.

When he first moved in, she couldn't get used to him, and she kept hiding from him like he was a monster. As time passed, she realized that even though he could be shameless, he never did anything that she would see as harassment, so she just ignored him.

Until he showed up at her house, she almost had a heart attack when she woke up only to see him in her house. "Why are you here?" Raquella pointed at him with a trembling finger.
