Chapter 685

As Mrs. Sanders kept talking, not only did Sarah stay silent — she actually started laughing.

Mrs. Sanders frowned. "What are you laughing at?"

Sarah's gaze turned cold. Her voice was calm but sharp.

"Shouldn't matters between us younger people be handled by us directly? Wouldn't it sound bad if word got out that you're getting involved like this?"

She paused for a second, then added with a smile that didn't reach her eyes.

"Besides, no matter what, I'm still the biggest shareholder in Sanders Group. Firing an employee is well within my rights, don't you think?"

Right now, Sarah was actually glad Mrs. Sanders had finally dropped the act and shown her true colors. At least it saved Sarah the trouble of pretending to be polite.

Mrs. Sanders still wore the kind, gentle smile of an elder, but her voice turned colder underneath.

"So what, you're using your position to pressure me now?"

Sarah laughed softly.

"You're joking. How would I dare?"

Without bothering to continue the conversation, Sarah picked up her glass of water and went straight back to her room.
