Chapter 638: Expelled
Kenneth was incensed. He had happened to be in the vicinity to inspect the operations of his family businesses. But he suddenly received a report that the staff of the Heavenly Pavilion, one of his businesses, had gotten into a conflict with a custor.
Kenneth didn’t take it seriously at first because it was just a trivial matter that didn’t require his attention. But when he heard that the custor involved in the conflict was Lucas, he was frightened out of his wits!
He imdiately dropped everything and hurried over, just a second before the Heavenly Pavilion’s security guards were about to get physical with Lucas. He managed to stop them from stupidly offending Lucas just in the nick of ti.
He, the esteed scion of the Parker family, had no choice but to bow down and apologize to Lucas. Yet this silly woman actually had the audacity to jump out and insult Lucas in front of him.?Isn’t she afraid of further incurring his wrath?
Kylie’s eyes widened in shock, and she spluttered in disbelief, “Mr… Mr. Parker, what did you say? You actually want to dismiss ? For a… wastrel like Lucas Gray? I’ve been a veteran employee of the Heavenly Pavilion for years!”
Seeing this, Frey hurriedly tried to speak up for Kylie. “Yeah, Mr. Parker. Kylie is a supervisor of the Heavenly Pavilion, and she has made a lot of contributions to the company over the years. She’s been the top sales achiever every single year. If you dismiss her just like that, it… it will really be inappropriate!
“Furthermore, we have a lot of regular custors. Kylie has top-notch managerial abilities and strong communication skills. If she’s dismissed rashly, not only will the other employees of the Heavenly Pavilion find it unjust, but I’m afraid that our regular custors will be affected and thus result in a great impact on our overall sales volu. Mr. Parker, please reconsider your decision carefully!”
As soon as Frey said this, many of the staff of the Heavenly Pavilion, including Jane, had indescribable expressions.
They had never seen any of Kylie’s so-called superb work competency, managerial abilities, and communication skills, but they were certain that she was the top sales achiever. Reason being, she would abuse her authority as a supervisor and leverage on the power of her backer, Frey, to snatch away all the big spenders, claiming credit for their hard work and snatching their sales. She would often let them handle the sales with low transaction amounts of about a few thousand to tens of thousands. So it, of course, made her seem very competent.
Moreover, Frey’s words made Kylie seem extrely important, as if the Heavenly Pavilion would collapse and slip into a major crisis without her, a re supervisor. It was absolutely ridiculous.
But the staff didn’t dare to reveal their emotions in front of Kylie and Frey.
Even Lucas didn’t say much and rely stood calmly on the spot with raised brows, waiting to see how Kenneth would handle this matter.
However, Kenneth was extrely annoyed after hearing what Frey said.
“Hah, so, this supervisor nad Kylie is an indispensable pillar in the Heavenly Pavilion, huh? Without her, the Heavenly Pavilion will fold and go bankrupt imdiately because you’re just an incompetent general manager. Is that what you an?” Kenneth questioned furiously with a gloomy expression on her face.
Frey imdiately broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly defended himself, “No, no, Mr. Parker, that’s not what I an…”
“Shut up!” Kenneth hollered, imdiately interrupting him. “Don’t think I don’t know what exactly you have in mind. When I ca in, this woman was nestled in your arms and calling you ‘Honey’. I know very well that you’re already almost fifty years old and a married man with children!
“I’m afraid this woman is about the sa age as your daughter, isn’t she? Trust you to be able to embrace each other and address each other with such endearing terms. How revolting!
“I don’t care how you fool around and how many mistresses you have out there, but since you’ve brought your filthy affairs to the Heavenly Pavilion and dirtied this place, I can’t spare you!
“I just took over the Heavenly Pavilion not long ago, and I’ve yet to find ti to deal with you scoundrels, but you’ve already offended Mr. Gray. In that case, you two get out now! There’s no room for people like you in the Heavenly Pavilion!”
With a look of disgust on his face, Kenneth ordered that both Frey and Kylie be expelled from the Heavenly Pavilion together.
Hearing this, Kylie and Frey felt as if they had suddenly been slapped twice. Their faces were stinging and burning, and they were full of disbelief.
Neither of them had expected that Kenneth, who had never personally managed the family’s affairs, to be so ruthless and unrciful to them for the sake of Lucas!
Kylie had only worked in the Heavenly Pavilion for a few years, while Mr. Frey had already been an employee for more than ten years. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call him a senior employee. Yet Kenneth actually dismissed him too for Lucas’s sake.
When Kylie saw Kenneth’s cold and solemn face, a sudden chill and wave of horror surged in her heart.
For the past year or two, she had been acting tyrannically at work by relying on her relationship with her backer, Frey. Not only did she get the position of a supervisor, which ca with a high annual salary, but she also managed to get tens of thousands of dollars in commission from the sales she snatched from others.
Besides, she also had a high status, and everyone, including her superiors, would be extrely respectful toward her, afraid of offending her. It was as if they were facing Frey in person.
Kylie had always been an overly ambitious person who felt that she was beautiful. In addition, she was treated like a queen in the Heavenly Pavilion, causing her to beco unbridled and capricious with her words and actions.
Kenneth’s words were like a bucket of water pouring over her, snapping her back to reality. Without Frey and the Heavenly Pavilion, she was nothing!
She had long gotten used to living an extrely privileged life with her annual salary of hundreds of thousands. And she barely had to do anything in exchange for this. All she had to do was serve Frey, an old man about the sa age as her father, and bully the people she disliked every single day. Life was really carefree and pleasant for her!
Once she really got fired, she wouldn’t be able to earn even $20,000 a year!
The expression on Frey’s fat face was also changing incessantly.
All of a sudden, Frey got on his knees in front of Kenneth, completely disregarding his pride. He cried loudly, “Mr. Parker, I was wrong! But this is all Kylie Reed’s fault. I-I was just deceived by her!
“She told that soone was deliberately causing trouble here. That’s why I brought security over to handle the issue! I… I had no intentions of targeting Mr. Gray! Please give another chance to make up for my mistakes! I will definitely take care of this matter properly!”
Frey knelt on the ground with horror written all over his face.
