Chapter 51 She Was Jailed on Your Behalf

Regardless of how painful the kick was, Steven remained silent and kneeled on the ground. Brendan showed him the medical report on his phone with an intimidating, apathetic expression. “Look at this. Explain yourself.”

This was expected, so Steven had long prepared an explanation. He stooped low as he said, “I’m sorry, sir. I wanted to tell you at the time, but I know you very well. If you had found out that Ms. McKinnon lost her sight in jail, you would have definitely done whatever you could to take her out of jail. However, because we were under the watchful eye of the public, your actions would have certainly led to an unintended negative impact on the Brighthall Group. Therefore, I couldn’t say it. I took the liberty not to tell you immediately. I am sorry!”

“You took a liberty indeed.” Brendan laughed instead when he got to the point of extreme anger. He looked down at Steven with his ice-cold gaze. “It seems that I’ve been too kind to you. So much so that you can’t tell who’s the boss anymore. From this day onward, you are fired. Get out of here! Don’t you ever come back without my permission!”

‘What?’ Charlene covered her mouth, feeling incredulous. She couldn’t believe that Brendan would fire Steven just for the sake of Deirdre.
