Furious, Josie slammed her water bottle onto the table. “That’s not true! Ms. Shenton isn’t that kind of
person.”
“What’s the point if you believe her?” The male employee continued indignantly. “Can you make money
with that? You, a secretary, can’t understand how much the sales department has suffered. They’ve
labeled us as Ms. Shenton’s lackeys, but we have to respond politely. What do you even know?”
Josie glared at and rebuked him loudly, “Can’t you endure it? Do you know how they slander and curse
Ms. Shenton every day?”
“I don’t know, I can’t take it anymore!” The male employee ran his hands through his hair. “Ms. Shenton
must be guilty. I think the company will go bankrupt sooner or later.”
“If you can’t handle it, leave!” Josie exploded. “You don’t deserve Ms. Shenton’s kindness. She’s been

“What did you say?”
“I said you’re ungrateful!” Unable to contain her emotions, Josie stepped forward and slapped the man.
“You bitch! How dare you slap me?” The male employee was furious and attempted to slap Josie.
The other employees were frightened and rushed to intervene.
Chaos erupted in the conference room.
Caroline and Kenny heard the commotion as they passed by the conference room. They exchanged
glances and hurriedly entered the room.
Kenny opened the door and was met with a chaotic scene that angered him. “It’s lunch break. Why
didn’t you rest and instead got into a fight?”
One of the employees approached Kenny and explained the situation.
Upon hearing the explanation, Kenny’s expression soured. He turned to Caroline with indignation. “You
decide what to do with this employee.”
Caroline nodded and entered the conference room. After studying her employees for a moment, she
spoke calmly. “I understand your concerns. You might think I’m avolding rumors and not addressing the
company’s situation. Some of you believe the company is going bankrupt. I won’t try to convince you
otherwise. If you want to leave, go ahead. I won’t stop you.

“I’m leaving!” The male employee angrily removed his work ID and tossed it on the floor, “I won’t stay in
a company with no future!”
“I’m leaving too.”
“I’m sorry, Ms. Shenton. I wish you success.”
Caroline watched her departing employees silently. She counted as they left, stopping at 17.
Turning to the remaining 50 or so employees, Caroline asked, “Is anyone else absent?”
Josie wiped her tears. “Yes, Ms. Shenton. There are about ten more.”
“Go check if they want to stay or leave.”

After Josie left, Caroline asked, “What about the rest of you?”
“We’ll stay with you, Ms. Shenton!” a female employee declared.
“Yes, you’ve always been good to us. We won’t abandon you in tough times.
“Don’t worry, Ms. Shenton. We’re committed, no matter what happens.”
With bitterness in her voice, Caroline replied, “Alright, I won’t betray your trust.”
After resolving the situation, Caroline and Kenny returned to Caroline’s office.
Kenny paced back and forth, still fuming. “I’m furious!”
Sipping on the coconut juice Kenny had brought, Caroline explained calmly, “It’s natural. That’s how
things
go.”
“Doesn’t matter! We should’ve never spent so much on their food!” Kenny barked.
Caroline corrected him, “Don’t generalize. You should refer to the ones who left.”
“You’re right.” Kenny settled on the sofa. “What a bunch of ungrateful jerks!” Caroline looked at him and
asked, “Do you share the same doubts as them?”
