My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 1065

"Mr. Calcraft, are you suggesting that someone else planted these things?" Robin's immediate concern was not about being promoted to manager but rather the shock of finding so many bugs and cameras in the president's office.

"Yes, and it happened in the last ten days."

Nash had not noticed the cameras during the last intimate moment he shared with Hera in the office, so it was obvious they were planted afterward.

"Alright, I'll investigate this right away."

When Robin reached the office door, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. "Mr. Calcraft, did you just say you'd promote me to manager?

"I'm rarely at the company, and I'm planning to vacate the manager position."

Nash could not help but feel amused by Robin's slow reaction to this. Robin prioritized the president’s safety above all else, which was why he had overlooked this other matter.

Robin exclaimed excitedly, "Mr. Calcraft, rest assured I’ll get an answer by today!”

Nash raised a brow. "Don't make promises you can't keep. If you manage to get results today, I'll treat you to a nice dinner!"

Chin held high, Robin boasted, "I used to be a reconnaissance soldier!"

Ten minutes after Robin left, Hera walked into the office. She was engrossed in conversation with her secretary about work matters. She was so focused on her secretary that she did not notice Nash's presence until she moved to pull out her chair and accidentally touched his hair.

She let out a shriek of surprise. When she realized it was Nash, she patted her chest in relief and exclaimed, "When did you arrive? You scared me!"

Nash stood up and courteously offered his seat. "President, I just arrived."

"Ms. Lewis, Mr. Calcraft, I'll leave you to your work!" The secretary tactfully left the office and closed the door behind her.

Hera stretched her arms out for a hug. Nash embraced her and whispered softly in her ear, "You were such a sight at the meeting."

Hera's body trembled slightly, and she playfully punched Nash's chest, saying, "Stop eavesdropping on my meetings!"

"I suggest applying pressure on the supplier through the legal department. If they don't deliver in three days, I can manipulate public opinion through Dallard's social media. If that fails, we can resort to diplomatic negotiations through the embassy.

"If none of these methods work, then we'll have to forfeit the three million deposit and purchase a lithography machine from Yonder Technology in Munford.

"Although the precision and complexity might not match the equipment from Dallard, at least we can quickly increase production capacity!"

Hera continued signing various documents as if she had not heard the assistant manager's words at all. On the other hand, Nash was quite interested in the assistant manager's suggestions.

When the secretary called the assistant manager, she did not mention Cal’s negligence. The assistant manager's suggestions were entirely impromptu but comprehensive.

If they could not retrieve the three million deposit, it would damage the credibility of the supplier. If it were a listed company, it might even affect their share price. Regardless, there was still a backup plan—replacing Dallard’s equipment with domestic lithography machines.

After signing the last document, Hera put down her pen and lifted her head. "You handle this matter. We'll be adding two more branches and seven production workshops within seven days, so I need to see results within that time frame.

"The workshops must be operational within ten days!"
