Chapter 1280 The Obedient Boss
Back inside Evans Group, a high–level meeting was held by Cecilia, where she planned the company’s future operations. Following that, she dismissed a portion of Ralph’s close associates.
She held eighty percent of the company shares, yet she wielded a hundred percent of the decision–making
power.
Moreover, Ralph’s associates aside, members of senior management who never reaped any benefits under him were happy with the idea of a change in bosses.
The meeting had concluded successfully, and it was already five in the afternoon.
“Let’s go. I have to prepare dinner at home,” Cecilia said to her subordinates, losing the sternness she displayed in the meeting.
“Okay.”
While the group prepared to leave, Madeline remained where she was. Turning to Cecilia, she asked, “Cecilia, I was thinking about staying back to work overtime, so that I can learn a bit more, would that be alright?”
Cecilia understood that she yearned for independence and freedom, so she didn’t stop the latter.
“Alright, if you’re tired, go home.”
“Mm–hmm.” Madeline nodded repeatedly, a hint of embarrassment in her tone. “In that case, please help me look after Amy.”
“Don’t worry,” Charlotte immediately responded.
Without any hesitation, Cecilia and Lucille agreed. They had a nanny and an early childhood teacher at home, so their role was merely to make sure the child was being taken care of properly. It wasn’t a task that required much effort.
Madeline was profoundly touched. If it wasn’t for Cecilia and the others, my life would never have changed to what it is now.
She shifted her gaze away and resumed her work.
After returning home, Cecilia began preparing dinner. She also sent a message to Nathaniel, letting him know she was making home–cooked food.
Meanwhile, Nathaniel was in the middle of a meeting.
During the meeting, the sound of a vibrating phone broke the silence.
As everyone had silenced their cell phones before the meeting began, they were all fearful to have made a mistake upon hearing the vibrating noise.
Only then did Nathaniel notice that it was a message sent by Cecilia.
He had forgotten that his phone was still casting to the screen. When he glanced at i read: I’m just going to whip up a few dishes. Don’t be picky. If you are, you’ll have to cook yourse

They had initially assumed that their seemingly cold–hearted CEO would be angry, yet surprisingly, the latter responded: Don’t worry, I love everything you make.
Nathaniel was worried that his response might come off as too unfeeling. Thus, he rummaged through the emojis that Mason had sent him and decided to send one with a cute cat back.
He didn’t notice the strange expressions on everyone’s faces during the meeting. All of them looked as if they had witnessed something they had never seen before.
When Mason came over to hand Nathaniel the documents, he noticed the message being cast to the screen. He immediately leaned forward and whispered a reminder into Nathaniel’s car.
“Boss, the phone is still casting.”
When Nathaniel glanced back, he saw his chat history with Cecilia plainly shown to everyone.
He slightly furrowed his brows, shutting off his phone, then addressed everyone, “The meeting for today is
now over.”
Cecelia had gone back to cook, so he needed to head home early, for he couldn’t keep her waiting for too long.
The staff, originally filled with unease, felt the tension within them ease upon hearing the meeting had come to an abrupt end.
They were just discussing how to snatch a project away from Jamieson Group.
Jamieson Group was well–established in Drocver, while their company, Imminence Corporation, was less than a year old. Trying to recklessly steal Jamieson Group’s projects from other regions was a risky
endeavor.
Hence, none of the top executives present at the scene had a viable solution.
They had initially thought that they wouldn’t be able to leave that day, certain that they would have to endure their boss‘ anger. Thankfully, the boss‘ wife came to their rescue.
When they stepped out, everyone couldn’t help but discuss among themselves.
“What exactly did Mrs. Rainsworth do to make the boss so obedient?”
