Chapter 901: Scolding
Before Dave could say anything, Grant was already out the door. He couldn’t sit still any longer. This was the limit. Her behavior was completely unprofessional, and he was done letting it slide. A manager from Frost Industries might have handled things better, and so Grant wasn’t going to let this go.
He stopped at her cubicle, scanning the space quickly. It was empty. She was already gone. Typical. She didn’t even bother to stick around. It was as if all their hard work meant nothing to her. Did she think this was a joke? No, she must think they were a joke. There were already rumors in the market that the Frosts had sent their person to keep an eye on them as they did not fully trust the company. And now, if this Frost’s person, Miss Innocensa Frost, was not in on the meeting with the distributors, what kind of an impression would that leave on them?
The thought only made him angrier. It wasn’t just this project. It was probably the same with every other one she had been involved in. She let others do the grunt work while she sat back and took the credit. The more he thought about it, the clearer it became. She wasn’t a team player—just a figurehead pretending to care.
He found her about to sit in the car, her back to him. He called out," Miss Frost." At least she stopped when she heard him.
"Miss Frost," he called out sharply.
She froze at the sound of his voice. Her hand lingered on the car door as she seemed to hesitate. At least she had the sense to stop when called.
Grant didn’t waste time. As soon as she slightly turned in acknowledgment of his voice, he was already closing the distance between them.
"What do you think you’re doing?" he demanded, his voice sharp and cutting. "Do you have any idea how unprofessional this is? The distributors are going to here at any minute, and you’re out here—what? Avoiding responsibility? Acting like this project doesn’t matter? Today’s meeting almost decides the future of the entire company! It is not going to matter to you, is it? Because you will have anoyher project thrown into your lap if this does not work out? But what about the others who have put their everything in it?"
She didn’t respond, and her silence only fueled his anger. He gestured back toward the building. "If you can’t even bother to make yourself available for a critical meeting like this, then I’ll have no choice but to escalate this. I’ll formally request Mr. Seb Frost to assign someone who actually understands the importance of professionalism and teamwork. Someone who takes this seriously and not like some vacation."
