A staff mber suddenly recalled that no wonder, back then, when she wanted to call them for help, she couldn’t find them. Apparently, the two of them took an unusually long bathroom break.
The two female employees heard Jacobs ntion calling Ivy Linden, their faces were extrely unpleasant, like two holess dogs.
However, they did not leave imdiately, instead, they straightened their backs and stopped crying, with a nasty look on their faces, they said, "Firing us requires three months’ severance pay, this money, Manager Jacobs, you must settle today. Otherwise, we’ll go to labor arbitration to sue GK."
Another female employee added, "Exactly, now that GK is hot, I believe Manager Jacobs doesn’t want President Monroe burdened with negative news. Be straightforward and settle the salary! I think three months’ pay is too little, I want a year’s salary. Because we accompanied GK through the toughest tis, you can’t just kick us out just because GK is hot now and your salaries are about to rise."
Tsk tsk!
Shaless, aren’t they?
That comnt made not only Jacobs want to hit them, even the employees all wanted to raise their fists against them.
Jacobs was utterly disgusted by these two female employees!
He said, "People need face, just as trees need bark. I advise you two to show so dignity, even if you leave GK, you’ll need to work at other companies. I believe no company would want employees like you, right?"
The two female employees felt Jacobs was threatening them. Please, Ravenswood is so big, they don’t believe Jacobs can complain to their next boss?
The two female employees continued to act shalessly.
Jacobs, impatient, said, "GK will not indulge your extortion behavior, everything will follow the labor contract. Whatever salary GK owes you, it will be transferred to your account according to statutory ti. Not a cent more."
Jacobs paused, then added, "If any of you are full and idle, wanting to blackmail President Monroe, I will not hesitate to use legal ans to bring the imposters to justice."
Jacobs was too assertive.
The two female employees left dejectedly.

GK was on fire.
Completely on fire!
For three consecutive days, the stores were bustling, employees usually emptied the store’s stock by two in the afternoon, then joyously invited colleagues and friends for afternoon tea, watched movies, or went to the food street to satisfy their taste buds.
Employees of other stores could only watch eagerly. In so poorly performing won’s clothing stores, employees had to work from mall opening until it closed, selling less than a piece or two a day, rely scraping by for a dead salary.
Even in well-performing won’s clothing stores, they ran in two shifts, but the inco was low, base pay was small. Morning shift sales were poor, so there was no commission, relying on the little commission from the late shift. Compared to GK’s salespeople, it was vastly inferior.
Especially since GK ca, it brought the mall to life. Yet, won’s clothing was all cold, with only GK thriving.
The owners of won’s clothing stores refused to take it anymore, they went in groups to the mall leasing departnt to complain about this issue, accusing GK of stealing their business. At this rate, won’s clothing in the mall would be dead except for GK.
United efforts could make a big difference, the won’s clothing store owners believed in pressuring the mall leasing departnt as a group.
Who knew, the leasing departnt bluntly replied, "If you feel the business can’t go on, you can quit and let other brands do it! GK brought the mall to life. Costics, accessories, food, all were driven up. Even n’s clothing sales improved significantly. Especially, bubble tea shops, which had poor sales before, now have morning queues until the afternoon. You should learn more from GK instead of being jealous."
The owners of the won’s clothing stores were furious, seeing red.
How many benefits did Ivana Monroe give? The leasing departnt used to not speak to them with this attitude, now they seed disdainful.

When it rains, it pours, perfectly describing the situation Jean Shaw and Michelle Monroe found themselves in.
Jean Shaw never expected Caleb Monroe to be so ruthless. He directly listed their house on a real estate agency at a low price, and the next day, the buyer ca with enforcers to evict Jean Shaw and her daughter from their ho.
Jean Shaw was so stimulated, she had a furious outburst, then fainted, requiring an ambulance to take her to the hospital. The doctors inford Michelle Monroe that the situation was not optimistic. After a series of tests, it was confird that Jean Shaw had a stroke.
Michelle Monroe almost fainted on the spot, "Can...can it be treated?"
Michelle Monroe had heard of strokes, knowing they might cost a lot of money. Not only upfront, but even waking up, the recovery stage would also require a lot of money to hire a caregiver.
She was now penniless, unable to afford the dical or surgical fees. How could she find the money later to hire a caregiver?
Michelle Monroe suddenly had a bad thought, Mom, I’m sorry, people live and die, you’re like this, living and dying are the sa, stop dragging down.
Unfortunately.
The doctor told Michelle Monroe, "Relative, don’t worry, your mother was sent in ti, she can be saved. But after she wakes up, her condition won’t be the sa as normal, requiring a lot of care and attention from you!"
Michelle Monroe looked utterly disappointed, she couldn’t even take care of herself, how could she take care of her mother? Furthermore, she didn’t have money now!
Michelle Monroe suddenly burst into tears, which startled the doctor.
Why was she crying when there was hope?
The doctor comforted Michelle Monroe, asking if she had any difficulties.
Michelle Monroe told the doctor she had no money, then ntioned Caleb Monroe’s infidelity and abandonnt, leaving them with her mother. Finally, she said sothing very important, "Mom, it’s my fault for being useless, I don’t have the ability to save you, sob sob sob...don’t bla ."
The doctor was very sympathetic to Michelle Monroe and deeply pained by Caleb Monroe’s irresponsible behavior. He didn’t think much about Michelle Monroe’s last remark and righteously said, "Relative, calm down, money isn’t urgent, with a doctor’s benevolent heart, we’ll first help your mother with surgery and bring her back. After that, I’ll discuss with the director to organize a donation from doctors, and you can borrow so from friends and family. If it still isn’t enough, just give the hospital an IOU, and when you have money from work, pay the rest back."
After saying this, fearing Michelle Monroe’s refusal, the doctor handed her the surgery contract.
Michelle Monroe wanted to throw away the pen and tear up the contract, wondering if doctors nowadays really had such dical virtue? Could they focus on profits instead?
Under the doctor’s watchful gaze, Michelle Monroe, trembling, signed. She felt so incredibly frustrated that she almost coughed up blood, internally cursing, "Mom, you’re going to ruin . I’m like a clay Bodhisattva fording a river, unable to protect myself, and now, I have to go into debt for you."
