When There Is Nothing Left But Love (Ashton And Scarlett)

The world honored wealth and power more than anything else. So for an insignificant secretary like her to disrespect a board member and pretended to be pitiful afterward was downright preposterous. I was interested to find out if she would be able to get away with this.

After all, she was not the only one who could put on a show.

Staring intently at Stella, I heaved a long sigh and plastered on a guilty face.

Anyone who had experience in the workplace knew it was full of hypocrisy. Normally, a subordinate was doomed when their superior put on such an expression. Unable to pinpoint any mistake that their superior had done, they could only accept their misfortune. I heard gasps of horror behind me. It seemed like the other colleagues could already foresee what was coming Stella’s way and started praying for her.

Joseph glanced at Stella and me. Then, he instructed curtly, “Ms. Collins, please head to the Finance Department and get three months’ worth of salary. You don’t need to come to work from tomorrow onward.”

His voice was firm and loud. Even I was amazed by his boldness. He actually had the guts to fire an employee whom Ashton hired just like that.
