Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 321: Beware of Ghosts

Upon hearing the word "resign," Heather panicked immediately.

"Manager, this really wasn't my fault, please believe me!"

"I'm not interested in the details or the process, I only care about the results, and the results are that your work has deeply embarrassed the president. It nearly caused trouble for everyone in the company. A mistake is a mistake, no matter the reason behind it, and I don't want to hear your excuses."

Heather knew Aurora was a stickler for details, but only at this moment did she truly understand the chilling nature of her coldness.

Exhausted from a sleepless night, she now felt as though she had fallen into an ice cellar. She couldn't believe these words were coming from Aurora.

"Manager, are you asking me to resign?"

"According to company policy, there really is no need for you to stay. Everyone must pay for their actions," Aurora stated flatly, looking down at her from her position of authority.

Heather didn't cry or make a scene; she simply let go, saying indifferently, "Alright, I understand. I'll prepare my resignation letter now."

Aurora didn't respond and turned back to her work, leaving the office in shock at her coldness. Everyone had thought she valued Heather greatly, likely sharing a close relationship, but Aurora didn't speak a word in her defense or even listen to her explanations.

Was this woman too indifferent? The others began to doubt their previous impressions; Aurora clearly never cared much for Heather.

Regardless of what others thought, Ivy was quite pleased; Heather had slapped her once, and now she was getting her due punishment.

Watching Heather type her resignation letter, tears fell on the keyboard with each keystroke.

She couldn't understand it; Aurora had taught her to change, and now Aurora was the one driving her away.

After printing her resignation, she dried her tears and approached Mrs. Lyman, "Mrs. Lyman, be careful walking at night-you might encounter ghosts."

Mrs. Lyman had thought it would take more effort to drive Heather away, but Aurora had made it easy, showing that Heather was not as important to her as she thought.
