Susan sighed.

As Johnathan was the workers’ representative, naturally, his resignation would set off a chain of mass resignations among them.

Without any employees, the company would be reduced to nothing but an empty shell.

This time, the situation was beyond remedy.

However, despite all that, Zeke didn’t seem to be bothered at all. In fact, he looked carefree and still had the mood to smoke a cigarette.

His frosty demeanor only angered the workers further, who followed in Johnathan’s footsteps to quit.

Right at that moment, Zeke’s car door opened.

It was Laura who alighted.

She shouted, “Johnathan! Stay where you are.”

When Johnathan saw that it was Laura, he was utterly shocked.

He quickly ran up to her and asked, “Mom, what are you doing here instead of the hospital?”

“I have enough money for the surgery now. Let me send you to the hospital for the operation.”

Slap!

Laura unexpectedly gave Johnathan a slap without any hesitation. “You b*****d! Apologize to Mr. Williams now.”

Johnathan was puzzled as to why he was slapped. “Mom, why did you hit me?”

“Also, why should I apologize to him? He owed us our salary and beat us up...”

Laura interrupted, “Shut up, do you know that you are being ungrateful?”

Johnathan was utterly confused. “Mom, what are you talking about? How am I being ungrateful when we don’t owe anything to the new boss?”

Laura explained, “Have you forgotten that you owed the hospital a lot of money for the bills? Today, the hospital evicted me, and even hurt me.”

“At the crucial moment, I was saved by Mr. Williams.”

“Also, he treated my sickness for free and has healed me.”

Of course, Laura wasn’t just insisting Johnathan apologize out of gratitude.

The main reason was that since even the mayor needed Zeke’s help, she thought that it wasn’t a good idea to offend someone so influential.

What!

Johnathan stared at Laura in disbelief.

He could see that she looked a lot better than before, there were hardly any signs of sickness left.

In fact, she looked younger by ten years.

In addition, when Laura dragged Johnathan towards Zeke, he noticed that his mother’s steps were a lot sturdier now. In fact, she even seemed light on her feet.

The change was so drastic that he wondered if she was really his mother.

As between now and then, she felt like two different persons.

Bowing to Zeke, Laura apologized, “Mr. Williams, I’m very sorry for my son’s inability to distinguish fact from fiction. This whole incident is his responsibility.”

“Do whatever you want to him as long as you can vent your frustration.”

“Johnathan, apologize to Mr. Williams now!”
