“If you wait until they all leave, hiring people back won’t be easy and the company’s losses will only grow.”
Hearing Natalie’s threats, I didn’t even notice my hands had already clenched into fists.
Even though we were married, I couldn’t figure out why Natalie was treating me this way.
"Natalie, are you fucking crazy?"
“You’re really threatening me for some outsider?”
Anger shook through my whole body. I wouldn’t have been this mad if I didn’t love her.
It was clear to me how badly the company would be affected if they all quit at once.
"Huh? Who said he’s an outsider?”
“He’s my adopted brother. I watched him grow up. How could I let him be bullied and not stand up for him?”
“I just promoted him. Are you really going to fire him just to slap me in the face?”
When did I ever want to slap her in the face? She was really good at twisting things and blaming me for something she didn’t even understand.
“What achievements has Aiden brought to the company that he deserves such a quick promotion and raise?”
“But as I remember, not only has he achieved nothing, he’s also messed up several of my projects, causing losses to the company.”
