Chapter 1794

Bonnie and Gina both fell silent, staring dumbstruck at Elliott.

Elliott’s face was a mask of fury, his voice raspy with anger, “Mom, do you honestly not know how we treated Emily? Do we have any right to question Emily? And also,’ Elliott suppressed the grief welling up inside him, “Charlie’s threat to fire me from the branch office was just a warning, do you understand? If you dare to mess with Emily again, I might not have a place in J City anymore. No, our whole family might be driven out of J City!”

His face was ashen, “You better understand Charlie’s tactics. By then, it won’t just be our family who suffers. My in-laws will be implicated as well”

Bonnie’s previous confidence was gone, stuttering, “Why would Charlie go after our family?”

“He doesn’t need a reason to act if he’s displeased’ Elliott scoffed.

Gina was now caught in a dilemma. They had already signed the agreement and had a falling out with Emily. It was too late for reconciliation now, and besides, what if seeking peace now meant they had to share the penalty?

Bonnie was at a loss for what to do, “So what do we do now? Are we just going to let your dismissal slide?”

Elliott nodded, “Yes, we let it slide. No one is to contact Emily. If we anger Charlie, we’ll all suffer! { can find another job. We have some savings at home. We can manage for a while!”
