Semua Bab The New HR Called Me a Thief: Bab 1 - Bab 7

"You have nothing to say because you know you're a thief! Mr. Gotti, you should fire this janitor right now. You need to take inventory and make her pay for our losses!"Elena Bellini's shrill voice sliced through the room.Janitor?Five years ago, I stepped down as Donna of the Caruso family and retreated behind the scenes as its quiet backer, returning to my hometown.By chance, I discovered that the Gotti family had bought Madre's former residence for their arms business. The wisteria she planted before she died was still there, and so was the piano she used to play.My Underboss, Raffaele Messina, suggested that I take over the nearly bankrupt Gotti family.But when I saw how well they had kept the wisteria alive, I remembered something Madre once told me.She said that when facing those who were much weaker than oneself, one must remember to be merciful.So, instead of taking over the Gotti family, I chose to invest in them. The condition of the exchange was that I stay

A week later, Matteo still hadn't received the shipping permit, and his anxiety was starting to show. Worse, he couldn't figure out what had gone wrong.He sat in his office, completely at his wits' end."Don't worry. It's probably just some minor delay. The permit should come through any day now. You can place the order first—Damn it! They hung up again."The permit wasn't the only thing that had disappeared. All those newly secured orders were gone, too.With no other choice, Matteo spent a fortune trying to win over the Capos of several small crews. After that, he finally managed to invite their Bosses to the company for a meeting, hoping to close a deal and clear out the inventory.However, the two guests were infuriated and stormed out less than half an hour after arriving, jabbing Matteo in the chest and roaring as they walked, "What the hell is that? A pigeon coop? You expect me to sit in there and talk business?""Sandwiches? What do you take me for, some guy in a priso

Everyone was stunned.They could only stare, utterly shell-shocked, as the effortlessly suave and aristocratic Alessandro bowed before me, a woman dressed in nothing but a plain T-shirt and denim jeans.Matteo forced his way between us at once."Mr. Vitale, I had no idea you and Valentina were so close. In that case, why don't we all sit down and talk business?"Alessandro frowned in displeasure. "Who is this uncouth imbecile interrupting us?"Matteo stiffened, but he quickly recovered with a smile. "Mr. Vitale, I'm Matteo Gotti, the head of Gotti Group. You may not know this, but Valentina is my business partner.""Business partner?" Alessandro repeated, casting a frosty glance over him. "An hour ago, I found out Ms. Caruso wouldn't be receiving me today. Then, somebody told me she was a janitor."Matteo shot Elena a vicious look. She was already trembling, her face drained of color."Mr. Vitale, this new hire made a foolish mistake. She's been too eager for a promotion and wa

"Since your dreams of going public are dead and bankruptcy is knocking at your door, allow me to present you with one final gift."I smiled and had Raffaele forward me the lawyer's email.It was a formal complaint."Five years ago, I funneled one million dollars into Gotti Group in exchange for a 60% stake. Five years later, your recorded profits have hit ten million dollars, yet you dared to demand a buy-back of my majority shares for a mere 350,000 dollars."Furthermore, I haven't received a single cent in dividends during this entire five-year tenure. So, I'll be suing you for property infringement and falsifying company accounts."Matteo slowly lifted his head and stared at me blankly, unable to say a word.I turned to Elena, whose face was covered in blood."As for you, you accused someone of stealing 350,000 dollars in company funds without a shred of evidence. Unfortunately for you, the person you slandered was me. Not only am I the Donna of the Caruso family, but I also
