"It’s already done, but I haven’t had the chance to check it yet. Check it yourself." Sienna Gavin said as she was about to send the file to lody Harmony.
"Why don’t you check it? I didn’t write it, how would I know what’s wrong? Check it yourself and then show it to . Hurry up."
With that, lody Harmony glared at Sienna Gavin. She always handed her work over to others; soone as precious as her couldn’t be bothered with such tasks.
This exchange was heard clearly by Elliana Lyle, who was standing on the side. Not only did they gossip, but they also let others do their work.
Why does the company keep idle people like this?
Elliana walked straight up to lody Harmony, put her cup down on the desk with a loud clatter.
"Not doing your own work? Are you here to act all high and mighty?" Her voice was loud, drawing the attention of everyone in the departnt.
Everyone was shocked; they didn’t expect soone to stand up to lody Harmony, especially a newcor.
lody Harmony frowned and stood up, raising her chin and looking down her nose at Elliana. "What do you an? Looking for trouble?"
"Pack up your stuff and prepare to leave." Of course, Elliana couldn’t fire employees of Norman Bennett, but she could certainly talk to him.
People like her, with no contribution to the company, aren’t kept around just for fun, are they?
However, this didn’t make lody Harmony scared or regretful; instead, she laughed at Elliana, just like one would laugh at a puny ant.
"Oh wow! You, making pack up and leave? Do you know who my supervisor is? He’s my uncle! What can you do to , huh?"
The words were laid bare. Seeing lody Harmony’s arrogant deanor, Elliana could already predict how lody would end up crying.
Everything would be resolved in one fell swoop.
"I can’t do anything to you, but Norman Bennett can." She shrugged, looking completely at ease.
"Norman Bennett? The president? Wow, you ugly pumpkin think you can call the shots with the president?"
To be honest, Elliana didn’t understand why lody called her a pumpkin. She was at least 160 cm tall, not that short.
Just because soone is shorter, they deserve disrespect? What kind of absurd logic is this?
"Do you believe I can’t get my uncle to fire you right now?"
Faced with lody Harmony’s threat, Elliana found it amusing. She wasn’t an employee of lody Harmony’s company; she was the boss’s wife, for Pete’s sake.
At this mont, Sienna Gavin hurried to diate, "We’re all colleagues; there’s no need to be so antagonistic. There must be so misunderstanding."
"Just apologize to Sis Fin," Sienna said, giving Elliana a look, suggesting she should back down.
After all, in Sienna Gavin’s view, the supervisor was lody Harmony’s uncle, soone not to be offended.
Elliana turned to lody Harmony and said, "I don’t like doing things too harshly, so I’ll give you two choices: First, pack your things and prepare to leave. Second, bring your uncle here, and you both pack and leave together."
Previously, she had given Emily Lyle a choice as well, but Emily had chosen the worst possible option.
Clearly, she had given them a chance, but no one could seize it. Probably just stupidity.
Seeing this, Sienna Gavin said nothing further, knowing she couldn’t persuade them and simply went back to work.
Although everyone in the departnt was watching, not a single person spoke up, seemingly waiting for the final outco.
Of course, Elliana’s words made lody Harmony slightly alert. She didn’t think an ordinary newcor could say such things.
After looking Elliana up and down and confirming she had nothing of value on her—no branded clothes—lody regained her confidence.
"Alright, do you dare co to my uncle’s office with ?"
"No need to bother." Planning to privately have fired, huh?
The supervisor probably wouldn’t dare to fire soone in front of so many people; they’d need to put on a show first.
Turning to the departnt, Elliana said, "Would soone go get her uncle so I can properly et him?"
"I’ll go," a girl said and imdiately ran towards the supervisor’s office.
lody Harmony hesitated, wanting to stop the girl but deciding it might weaken her montum, so she just stood there arrogantly.
Within just a few minutes, the departnt supervisor, Will Harper, ca over.
Will Harper was visibly angry. His niece had gotten into a quarrel with a newcor and even used his na to threaten to fire soone!
But seeing the newcor’s clothes, he felt a jolt in his heart. They looked familiar! It’s... the president’s wife!
Matching entirely with her build and everything!
Seeing him co, Elliana took off her mask, smiled sweetly at lody Harmony, "You’re out of chances."
The smile was bright and sweet, but it sent a chill down the spine, at least for lody Harmony.
How could lody Harmony not recognize Elliana? She was the president’s wife known throughout the company! And just now she...
"Supervisor Harper? So it’s you? Is this your niece?" She greeted Will Harper with a smile.
Will Harper broke out in a cold sweat and was internally panicking while lody Harmony stood frozen, seemingly terrified.
Of course, she was soone who bullied the weak and feared the strong. Look, her arrogance crumbled quickly.
"Oh my, Mrs. President, what brings you here?" Will Harper said, glancing at lody, almost wishing to slice his niece up with his gaze.
He then looked at Elliana, with a face full of flattery and difficulty, "She’s... my niece, just joined the company not long ago, ignorant of the rules, and offended you."
"Not long, huh? Oh, that explains it. Handing her work to others, gossiping behind their backs, giving people nicknas at random."
She listed all of lody Harmony’s wrongdoings in one breath, though there were certainly others she hadn’t seen.
A bead of sweat dripped from Will Harper’s forehead as he bowed low and said, "I... I’ll have her dismissed imdiately, to set an example."
"Uncle!" lody Harmony looked at her uncle in disbelief. How could he claim ignorance? Clearly, he had tacitly approved of her behavior; otherwise, she wouldn’t have dared.
"Shut up!" Will Harper hissed, wishing he could strangle this niece of his. Originally, he thought she was rely a bit arrogant but hadn’t realized she didn’t even do her basic duties!
Even if she were his niece, he couldn’t tolerate such behavior.
Moreover, she had caused him imnse trouble! The lightest consequence would be a reprimand or demotion, the worst being the loss of his job! He had worked in this company for four years, barely achieving his current position.
"Mrs. President, it’s my poor managent, neglecting this position at fault."
Will Harper’s sincerity was evident, but of course, anyone in his position would appear sincere.
The departnt was abuzz with schadenfreude over these events, yet simultaneously, they felt concerned.
lody Harmony’s actions had caused public outrage within the entire departnt, but out of respect for Supervisor Harper, everyone had held back.
Supervisor Harper was known to be fairly upright, so everyone was genuinely worried for him.
"Alright, handle this yourself," Elliana said, before turning and walking away.
She figured she should check with Raymond Wood about Supervisor Harper’s capabilities before making any decisions. After all, abruptly firing a supervisor could impact the company too.
She had no intention of adding trouble for Norman Bennett.
