Chapter 99

After making sure that Nicole was safe from harm, Zachary went for his overseas trip once again. It seemed as though it would be difficult to save themselves from the messy situation.

When Nicole arrived at the company the next day, she couldn't help but notice how oddly quiet the office was. She could almost feel the weight of the silence.

The other employees who had noticed her arrival immediately lowered their heads. Still, nobody said a word.

She took a walk around, and her eyebrows soon crinkled when she noticed Joanna wasn't at her usual place. She couldn't help feeling weird about it— something must have happened.

By the time Nicole had arrived at the office, Scarlett was following right behind her with a worried expression.

After shutting the door behind her, she glumly said to Nicole, "President Gardner fired Shaun Geller from the Human Resource Department this morning."

Nicole raised her head to look at the other woman, and it took her a while to react. If her memory served her right, Shaun Geller was the man who pressured her into drinking alcohol last night.

Seeing that Nicole was staring at her in surprise, Scarlett continued, "I'm not sure who President Gardner had heard from this morning, but as soon as he found out that Shaun tried to get you in trouble last night, he fired Shaun without even giving him the time to explain himself. Everyone working here is now holding themselves back so that they don't offend you in some way."
