'Is it really because the higher-ups couldn't stand Chase anymore and wanted to dismiss him?' Rita could not shake the feeling that there was someone else behind this. "Hey, uh, Uncle, it's me, Chase!" Chase immediately put on a flattering smile as soon as the call connected, making everyone in the room cringe even more.

"I'm calling to ask about my job... Yeah, why am I suddenly being fired? Did something go wrong? Didn't you talk to them? What? Are you kidding me? Ah, I see..."
