They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System

Chapter 363: Fired Again

From their offices, a few workers from the second and third floors had already started to gather, some out of curiosity, others with barely hidden resentment.

They still remembered how Lilian, Kosi, and Nnenna had all been promoted above them, and the sting had not faded. Some were angry. Others had quietly waited for a moment like this, hoping the tide would finally turn in their favor.

For a few, especially those from the second floor, this was not just about resentment, it was about revenge. They had endured the sight of the three girls rising too quickly, and now that one of them had seemingly “fallen,” they were eager to take advantage. Someone had seen the opportunity and twisted it into a public humiliation.

Lilian could tell that Juliet wanted to find fault with Nnenna by all means. The people standing around were not stepping in either, and Lilian knew better than to start a scene in the hallway.

Without a word, she stepped forward and gently tugged Nnenna by the arm, then signaled for Kosi to follow. She intended to de escalate the situation.

But Juliet was not done.

“What do you think you’re doing?” she snapped. “I’ve seen the records. That slacker hasn’t even been showing up for work.”

She pointed directly at Nnenna, then turned to Lilian. “And you, who gave you permission to leave?”

She paused then questioned Kosi “I hope no one’s been paying this parasite while she’s been missing,” she said, her voice rising.

“Employees who abandon their duties don’t deserve a salary! If we start tolerating disobedience, what message are we sending to those of us who actually work hard?”

A good number of people muttered in agreement.
