The Oracle They Fired A Billionaire's ObsessionChapter 1
After the New Year break, I went to the Temple of the Sea Goddess to pray for blessings. On a whim, I cast six Holy Cups in a row, and the entire temple fell silent.
My boss handed me an $88,000 bonus on the spot and told me to make corporate fortune-reading my full-time role from then on.
But his girlfriend, the newly appointed director fresh off her Ivy League degrees, sneered at the whole thing. She grabbed my Censer and smashed it on the ground in front of everyone.
"We live in a world of science. The fact that this company pays a charlatan like you is an absolute disgrace! As of today, you're fired!"
I looked at her forehead, where the faint dark lines of misfortune were already creeping in, and smiled. "Fine. As long as Mr. Delgado has no objections, I'll leave right now."
Bertram Delgado had his arm around her, his expression impatient. "Philippa Sullivan, superstition really isn't a good look. You should find opportunities elsewhere."
I turned and walked out without another word. The moment I stepped through the doors, I climbed into the Rolls-Royce belonging to Kevin Farley, head of the rival Farley Group.
