Chapter 712The HR director was taken aback, thinking that she had misheard.She was under Sadie's management. How dare Harriet openly kick her out of the company?"I said the person who should leave this company should be her," Harriet repeated.They locked eyes, and the atmosphere immediately became tense."Ms. Munoz, this is not fair!" The HR director gritted her teeth."Since you called me chairman, it means I have the final say in this company. Therefore, I have the right to dismiss someone who occupies a position without fulfilling their duties," Harriet declared. "Even if you complain to Felipe and Sadie, it won't make any difference. I hold more shares than the two of them combined, and besides..."Harriet paused and sneered, "My eldest brother is the leader of a top assassination organization, and my second brother is the business emperor of Imperium. You should know what will happen if you offend me."The HR director never expected that Harriet had such an extensive b
Chapter 713"If that's not good enough, then just deduct half a year's salary," Bruce tried again.It was a serious punishment for Mindy Buchanan.Even if Harriet wanted to make an example out of Mindy, she should still leave some room for negotiation. That was a rule in the workplace.However, Harriet still didn't agree. "Dismissal is the punishment. No room for negotiation."She was really pushing people to the edge.When Mindy first heard that her salary would be deducted, she was discontented, and when it was mentioned that half a year's salary would be deducted, she managed to suppress her anger. But now that Harriet still wouldn't budge, Mindy couldn't hold back any longer."Harriet, even though you are the chairman of the company, you only own fifty percent of the shares. The other fifty percent belongs to Mr. and Miss Bass. I am the HR director of the company, and if you want to dismiss me, you need their consent," Mindy said defiantly.Even if Harriet had powerful back
Chapter 714"Finally, we got rid of Mindy. Let's go celebrate it at a bar tonight.""Ha-ha, I want to set off firecrackers to celebrate. Our new chairman has done a fantastic job."...In the underground parking lot, Mindy berated Krista, "I asked you to come for an interview. No matter how your drawings turned out, I would have hired you. Did you really need to go and steal someone else's design draft? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have ended up like this. How could I have such a stupid cousin like you?""I didn't think that much at the time. I found her design draft beautiful and was worried about my own work, so I...""What do you have to worry about? I have the final say in the company's personnel. Your stupid actions have cost me my job," Mindy huffed, throwing her things into the trunk and getting in the car.Instead of leaving directly, she made a phone call. "Miss Bass, you must uphold justice for me."...Sadie was furious after hearing about what happened to Mind
Chapter 715The crowd erupted into a buzz of excitement.Delbert's eyes flickered, but he soon regained his cold demeanor.Under Sadie's deliberate display, she and Delbert behaved very intimately in public.Their interaction pattern seemed no different from when Delbert was with Harriet in the past.Yet to onlookers, it presented a completely different and intriguing scene.Delbert maintained a poker face, showing no signs of abnormality, but his mood was undeniably bad.He knew what Sadie was up to, but now he was powerless to stop it. He had to bite the bullet and play along.Back in the office, Sadie pretended to express concern. "Delbert, I took the liberty of making you my assistant. Are you mad at me for that? But if I didn't do so, the company wouldn't keep strangers around.""It's okay. I respect your decision," Delbert replied with a smile. "I just don't know what to do. Do you need my help?"Sadie blinked and spoke, "I will teach you anything you don't know. Are yo
Chapter 716Harriet ridiculed Sadie, and Sadie was annoyed."Be mindful of your boundaries in the company. Whatever you do privately, no one will interfere. But I advise you to focus more on your work. Stop presenting me with a bunch of messy papers and hiring useless people," Harriet added, hinting at the incident with Mindy.Then she left without looking at Delbert.Only she knew how painful it was to see Delbert and Sadie together.Sadie turned livid with anger and stomped her foot. "Harriet, since you mock me with Mindy's matter, I will not go soft on you."Sadie thought she could use Delbert to provoke Harriet, and the plan seemed to be going smoothly, but unexpectedly, there was a sudden reversal.She ended up being mocked by Harriet instead, which made her even more furious.In the past, when Harriet saw Delbert, she was so excited that she wanted to hug him directly, but now she seemed like a different person.Unwilling to be outdone, Sadie held Delbert's hand and pret
Chapter 717Sadie had no intention of going out and continued to argue with Harriet."I'll let it go this time, but I don't want it to happen again," Sadie warned.Harriet focused on her work, ignoring her."Did you hear me? Do you understand respect? I'm talking to you," Sadie said.Harriet felt that she was being unreasonable and looked up at her with a frustrated expression. "Are you asking your chairman to respect you?"Harriet's words caught Sadie off guard, leaving her momentarily speechless. After a while, she regained her composure and continued to pick faults with Harriet.Harriet picked up the phone and made a call. "Hello? Is this the HR department? Sadie is not disturbing me here instead of working in her office. Please make a note of this and deduct half a month's salary from her."Sadie was shocked. "Hey, what are you doing?"Harriet glared at Sadie, which made Sadie hesitate, fall silent, and quickly leave.In the afternoon, Sadie felt upset about having her sa
Chapter 718Getting no response from Delbert, Harriet felt disheartened and continued, "Since you have forgotten about me, then we have nothing to do with each other. Please don't come near me or provoke me anymore."Her words pricked Delbert's heart.Afraid that Harriet would ignore him, Delbert quickly explained, "Nothing is going on between Sadie and me."Harriet was unconvinced. After all, he was experiencing amnesia now, and she suspected that he was trying to deceive her."You are already engaged, yet you dare say nothing is going on between you two. It's funny! Do you think I'm easily fooled?" Harriet said, feeling that something was off.Delbert trapped her in her office, which meant that he hadn't lost his memory.He was someone with paranoia."Delbert, did you not lose your memory at all?" Harriet asked.But Delbert remained silent."Tell me the truth!" Harriet demanded, but Delbert remained unmoved.In his mind, it wasn't the right time to reveal his identity just
Chapter 719It turned out that Delbert didn't lose his memory.It was all his pretense.Instead of getting overjoyed, Harriet cried even more bitterly.Delbert couldn't bear it and went up to hug her. "I'm sorry, Harriet. It's all my fault. I thought I was sharing the burden with you, but I didn't expect you to suffer so much."Harriet silently held onto his sleeve.After a while, she stopped crying, but her voice was choked up. "I knew you didn't forget me. Our love was beautiful, so how could you forget?"Delbert touched her head. "Yes, I will never forget."Harriet wiped away her tears and asked, "What happened that night? Why did you go to Sadie?"Delbert sank into contemplation. "It's a long story."Harriet pulled him to the sofa. "Sit here and tell me the whole story."Delbert nodded and began to recall that night's events. "That night, I suddenly received a call from Sadie. She said she had news about my brother. I didn't believe her at first, but later she made the s
