Cherise pondered momentarily and agreed, “That’s fair enough.”

It was Cherise who had initially requested Damien’s help to secure a job for lan at the research institute. He had gotten the position solely because of the connections related to his association with Damien. Losing a job essentially handed to him through those connections when those ties were cut wasn’t an unexpected outcome. But online netizens had a different perspective.
