Chapter 118 You Are Fired

After Maria confirmed Hilda’s story, everyone believed it. Zayne suddenly remembered being overtaken

by a Bentley when he was on the way there.

“Jared, did you hire a private Bentley just to get ahead of me? You must’ve spent a fortune! Is that really

necessary?” Zayne asked Jared scornfully. Determined to not give in, he desperately tried to discredit

Jared.

“No, that’s not it! It was Jared’s friend.” Hilda once again defended Jared. She hated it whenever

someone looked down on Jared.

“Hmph! Do you really think he has a friend who could afford a Bentley? If so, you’re too naive! I bet

you’re the only one who believes him.” Zayne mocked then he turned and asked the others, “Do you

guys believe Jared?”

“No way! He’s so poor! There’s no way he could have a rich friend.”

“Yeah, he’s bluffing. I could bluff too and say that I have a friend who owns a private jet!”

“He can bluff all he wants, but he should know the limits! He’s too poor to make such a statement.”

Everyone took their turn to ridicule Jared.

Despite having seen it with her own eyes, Maria was adamant that the Bentley driver wasn’t Jared’s

friend. Out of all of them, Hilda was the only one who believed Jared.

Upon seeing that Jared had kept quiet the whole time, Zayne assumed that he had caught Jared with his

pants down. He then yelled out cheerily, “Let’s go in! Mr. Jennings is waiting for us. Before that, let me be

clear about one thing. Whoever dares to get under Mr. Jennings’ skin today, that person’s doomed.”

Everyone nodded. Obviously, no one would dare to defy Zayne, let alone Xavier.

Zayne led all of them to a private room Xavier had booked for them. Before going in, everyone was very

self-conscious about how they looked. They wanted to look their best for Xavier.

But when they were doing that, Jared went ahead and opened the door abruptly before going in. That

had definitely caught Zayne by surprise, and he was infuriated.

Fortunately for them, Xavier hadn’t arrived yet.

“Jared! Are you crazy? How could you just open the door as you wish? Lucky for you Mr. Jennings hasn’t

arrived yet. Or else he’d have been pissed off!” Zayne roared at Jared.

The others followed suit. They were worried that his actions might get them in trouble.

Unperturbed, Jared asked them sarcastically, “So? How else could I get in? Was I supposed to beg

beforehand? Were your ancestors all slaves or something?”

Jared’s degrading words got the others even more worked up. Especially Zayne, his face was flushed.

“Jared, what gives you the right to act like you’re above all of us? Slaves, you say? Fine! Don’t come

back to work anymore so you don’t have to be a slave as well! I could fire you right now!” Zayne was

fuming at the top of his lungs.

The others were equally pissed. They wanted Zayne to fire Jared right away.

Maria was also glaring at Jared with anger. How dare you bite the hand that feeds you? Did you forget

where you came from?

Hilda was the only person who tried to speak up for Jared. “Jared didn’t mean it, Mr. Carlson. Please

calm down.”

Hilda was worried that Jared might actually get fired from such a lucrative job.

“You’re not capable of firing me,” Jared said with an arrogant tone. Even Xavier wanted me to stay. Do

you think you can fire me as you wish?

“What did you say? I’m the manager of the sales department! I have the final say in every matter! You’re

an insignificant worker! Even if Mr. Jennings wishes to keep you around, I can definitely overrule him. I’m

the most powerful person in the sales department!” Zayne’s face was contorted with rage.a
