Begging For A Reconciliation

Chapter 400 Weed Out

The wide hallway started to be packed with people, who could not stay away from getting firsthand gossip.

Most of them spoke out against Leah while only a handful shared opposing views.

“Just to put a point out there. I think Ms. White is not a bad boss. She has kept up with business networking from day one, and she has expressed concern about the employee salary.”

“That’s right. I heard from HR this morning that the company policies on base salary and perks have been revised. Apparently, Ms. White requested Mr. Hendrick for the change.”

“This is between Ms. White and the management team. As employees, we should just keep our mouths shut.”

Leah was surprised and moved that there were people standing up for her.

She exchanged glances with Ross before going ahead into the conference room.

The dozen of senior executives were laughing their asses off at the sight of Leah.

“Oh, guess who finally shows up? Did you nail the thing with West Street? I knew you were bullsh*tting.”

“Don’t say that about her. Give me some time. Mr. Thompson won’t fall for her slop since it’s harder to get into his bed than Mr. Hendrick’s.”

“You’re right. It’s hard for her since she has to act like she’s working during the day and tends to Mr. Hendrick at night. You guys should cut it out.”

The meeting room was filled with taunts and mockeries. In the past, Leah would have been thrown into a daze.

Yet now, she merely aloofly said, “You can start your apology now.”

Slamming the contract on the table, she curled her luscious lips cynically, “This is the contract with the Thompson Group. We got West Street.”

Silence befell the conference room.

The dozen of senior executives widened their eyes in disbelief as they inspected Mona and the contract.

“Impossible! We weren’t even close to getting the deal with the Thompsons after going back and forth with them for two years! How could you possibly close the deal?”

“Young lady, I know you’re vain and competitive, but it’s illegal to forge a contract. I would advise you to think twice.”

Leah smiled in contempt. “In other words, you’re incompetent. The contract is real. I have proof of my further collaboration with Mr. Thompson. Please don’t look for an excuse to pass the buck and apologize to me.”

These people had looked down upon her the whole time. Now that Leah had acquired the partnership, they were probably p*ssed off.

As expected, a few among the veteran executives made faces.

“How can you expect me to apologize when you obtain the contract through filthy means? Who do you think you are?”

“Even if the contract is real, it doesn’t change the fact that you go around seducing men. I will never yield under your power, wh*re.”

Having been embarrassed, they covered their humiliation with rage.

Even though Leah had come back stronger, the waves of criticism washed color off her face.

Only, she kept her cool on the surface. Leah worked the projector and put a video on a huge screen.

Leah then glanced at the management team and smirked. “I was going to let you keep your pride, but since promises don’t mean anything to you, don’t blame me for what’s to come.

“I have turned over evidence of your bribing, power abuse over employees, and misappropriation of company funds to the police.

“I will also let the nationwide media know…

As the proof was being played out in the video, the dozen of senior executives turned pale in the face and shook up.

Refusing to hear anymore, they cut Leah off in a fluster, “Enough! Didn’t you want an apology? Fine, I’ll apologize. Don’t joke about this sort of stuff.”

“…Hang on. Where did you acquire the proof?”

Seeing that the senior team showed no remorse, Leah disappointedly shook her head. “It’s too late. The police are on their way as we speak. Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time. You can explain yourselves to them.”

Leah put Donald on the investigating job. According to Donald, these people did not even bother to cover their tracks. They lived life on the edge, challenging the limits of the law.

The senior executives made a run for the door at the mention of police. However, Ross had put a team of security there.

Five minutes later, the management team was taken away.

It was quiet in the meeting room.

Leah approached the floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the scenery. The bleak late Autumn woe resonated in her eyes.

She could not believe the damage Jackson had done to the White Group.

The whole thing stank.

Leah was heartbroken to see her parents’ lifelong blood, sweat, and tears ruined.

Even though she was only managing the White Group temporarily, she wanted to weed out the bad and return the company to its former glory.

News that the arrest of the high management team stirred a sensation online.
