    "Well, we''ll all be family soon anyway. No need for formalities," Carlisle reassured himself as he signed the contract.


    Once done, he inquired curiously, "I thought all the office space in Windex Building was leased on opening day. Why is the 15th floor avable now?"


    The sales manager awkwardly exined, "The client kept dying the contract and didn''t pay the deposit. Our boss got tired of waiting, so we released the 15th floor to you!"


    "Let''s head to the finance department to settle the payment then!"


    Carlisle handed a copy of the contract back to the sales manager.


    He mentally noted Shania''s favor and nned to return it when he ventured into the real estate business.


    Shortly after the manager left, Felicia entered the office with several documents.


    "Mr. Zahn, here''s your sry statement... I... identally left you out!"


    Her cheeks flushed with embarrassment, and she wished she could disappear into the floor.


    All the employees'' sries had been set except for the chairman''s. She had just taken over the office and had already made a mistake. She was afraid that Carlisle would be angry about her mistake.


    Carlisle nced at his sry details. As CEO of Aurora Holdings, his annual sry was 1.2 million dors.


    "That much?"


    He didn''t care about the amount. As the founder and legal representative of severalpanies, he held most of the shares. Most of the year-end dividends eventually ended up in his ount.


    Felicia exined, "Since we don''t have a board of directors, we couldn''t list you as chairman. We''ve made you the CEO of Aurora Holdings. This sry statement is based on the annual sries of the CEOs of several publicly tradedpanies in Yorksle."? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.


    "I don''t need a sry. Thepany''s running low on funds right now, so let''s save where we can," Carlisle decided, crumpling the sry sheet and tossing it into the trash.


    Gareth''s 200 million investment was originally meant for Dragonaire but had been transferred to Carlisle''s ount for his discretion. 100 million went to Xenos Factory, and the other 100 million was injected into Aurora Holdings.


    Dragonaire didn''t receive a single cent, but Aurora Holdings provided all the necessary funds.


    Shortly after Felicia left, Anthony arrived with a work badge.


    "Mr. Zahn, here''s your work badge. Windex Building''s management has announced that in three days, anyone without one won''t be allowed entry for security reasons."


    Carlisle examined his badge. It had Aurora Holdings in bold letters and his name. His employee number was 0001, and his position was as the CEO.


    The badge was an identification card with his details printed on it, and it had a purplenyard, which signified the highestpany position.


    Carlisle pocketed the badge and asked, "How many employees do we have now?"


    "Aurora Holdings has 35 employees. Alumni Network has 86. Dragonaire Game Company has 227. Xenos Factory has 398. Govan Technology Limited has 2050. Altogether, we have 2796 employees," Anthony replied without hesitation, having a thorough grasp of the employee numbers across all of Carlisle''spanies.


    Nearly 3000 employees worked at Govan Technology Limited, about 1600 of whom were production line workers. The rest were technical staff and management.


    "Let''s quickly finalize the department structures for allpanies and ensure we''re fully staffed," Carlisle directed.
