Chapter 1743

Chad didn’t dare to argue. He just hung his head and mumbled, “I just had a few too many beers and vented to Abbot. I didn’t think he’d go spreading rumors.”

Ron spoke up, “Mr. James sent Gavin to look into this. I can’t protect you even if I want to, Chad. Just write your resignation letter.”

If it was just the firm dealing with this, a warning or a fine would have sufficed. But with Gavin sitting right there in the office, mentioning that Charlie’s reputation was at stake, this couldn’t be shrugged off.

Chad’s eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at Ron, “Mr. Ron, that’s a bit harsh! I didn’t say all that. They’re just making things up!”

“But now Gavin wants an explanation. What can I do?” Ron frowned, “There’s no turning back now. This should serve as a lesson to you. I’ll try to negotiate a better severance package for you.”

Chad was devastated. After so many years at Paragon Pixel Design, he’d finally made it to senior designer, only to be fired over some idle gossip. How could he accept it?

Regardless of his pleas, Ron was unmoved. He even fired Chad’s assistant along with him.

After firing Chad, Ron called a meeting in the design department, “On Friday night, I am the one who asked Emily to look after Mr. James at a dinner. Cedric and I waited for her to leave the hotel after that. Cedric can vouch for me. The rumors are malicious lies and the culprits have paid the price. If I hear anyone discussing this behind my back, don’t blame me for being ruthless and kicking you out of the firm!”
