Chapter 2036
Fuming with anger, Mr. Walker stormed into Nicole's office and exclaimed, "Although you are the CEO, you should
still act reasonably. How can you dismiss an employee without any solid reasons? Are you trying to eliminate
dissenters?"
In response to Mr. Walker's act of questioning her, a frosty glint flitted in Nicole's eyes as her voice became icy. "Are
you implying that he's the dissenter? Or are you the dissenter?"
"What?! I-" he asked, not expecting to face such an accusation.
In contrast, Nicole was not panicking; she had even turned the tables on him.
'Why is this happening? In such a situation, shouldn't she try to calm others down to elude any difficulties in the
future? Why did she shift the blame back to me? What am I even supposed to say now? Every reply I've got might
as well be the wrong answer,' he thought.
He could not admit that he had ulterior motives, and he could not say the same about the head of the Marketing
department either. But by doing so, it meant that he was tacitly acknowledging that all of his accusations were
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbaseless and false.
Then, he instantly realized that he had been trapped with no way out. And just like that, Mr. Walker’s face turned
from pale to purple.
"Mr. Walker, we've been very lenient with you, since you've been working in our company for a long time. But you
should know what my grandfather hates the most." Sean walked in, his tone chillingly cold.
They knew that Mr. Walker was not going to back down easily, but no one had expected that he would cause a
scene in Nicole's office.
"Mr. Riddle, is the company now firing employees without following even the most basic procedures?" Mr. Walker
replied, feeling somewhat intimidated when he saw Sean.
However, since the state of affairs had arrived to such a sorry state, he had no way out.
"The documents were acquired from the Human Resources department and were signed by the chairman. All
subsequent procedures will be followed in accordance with the law. What do you think is lacking in the process?"
Steve added, his voice equally icy, exposing Mr. Walker's baseless arguments in the process. 'Does he think he can
easily bully our sister?'
"Well, you fired the head of the Marketing department. Don't you need the board's unanimous decision for this?"
Mr.
Walker argued, refusing to give up.
This was his last and remaining leverage. If he was dismissed, he would be rendered powerless.
"The board?" Sean smirked with a hint of amusement. "The Chairman, CEO, and President are all present. Do you
think
there is a need for a board meeting of any sort?"
No one would dare to object if all three of them had agreed to a decision.
Mr. Walker was immediately silenced, his face turning pale once again. If the trio of Sean, Steve, and Nicole wanted
someone out of the company, the individual in question would not be able to hold onto their position anymore.
'Mr. Walker, you're free to leave the company as well. As for the shares you hold, the company will repurchase
them at market value." Nicole shot a glance at Mr. Walker as she spoke in a calm and unassailable tone.
"Nicole, you've gone too far!" Mr. Walker yelled, instantly pumped with rage, for he had never expected that his
plan would backfire.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRaising an eyebrow, Nicole said, "If you don't want to leave with your dignity intact, we can always find another
way."
Then, she threw a document at Mr. Walker, making a crisp, crumpling sound as it landed.
Mr. Walker's heart skipped a beat. He hesitated as he looked at the papers, unsure if he should open them.
"Take a look. I believe you'll make the right decision, Mr. Walker." Nicole finished, her smile oozing with a chilling
undertone that sent shivers down his spine.
Mr. Walker trembled slightly as he opened the documents with much reluctance. His face immediately blanched, as
if all of his strength had been drained from his body.
He had spent the last five years at the headquarters without causing any trouble. But as soon as Nicole had
returned, she had exposed all of his deeds and blocked every perceivable route through which he could escape,
completely catching him off guard.
Suddenly, he realized that Nicole might have desired to create a scene by dismissing the head of the Marketing
department. She had been waiting for him to fall into her trap, which he foolishly did.
Both the head of the Marketing department and Mr. Walker had been dismissed. Mr. Walker figured that Damien's
scheme had probably been discovered by the three siblings. It was just that the former still believed that they were
doing everything covertly, and with great hubris too.
