Chapter 82

"What's going on? Why are we taking a break?"

I rushed over to Brandon, demanding answers.

"Two days off a week is mandated by the government. Given our tight schedule, taking one day off shouldn't be a problem, right?" Brandon's question. left me speechless.

I tried to keep my anger in check. "Mr. Howell, you're right, but we're on a tight. deadline. I've already said we have a final deadline. Can we postpone the break. and focus on meeting the deadline first? I can pay you extra for the overtime."

Brandon looked at me intently. "It's not about money. We aren't machines, we need regular rest. Besides, rest is essential for better work performance.

I knew he had a point, but our situation was special.

I took a deep breath and tried to adjust my tone. "Mr. Howell, is it absolutely necessary to take a break today?

"Yes," Brandon said firmly, and I turned to leave.

Then he added, "You all need to rest today too."

I was enraged. I turned to look at him. "Mr. Howell, it's enough that you rest. Don't worry about us."
