Chapter 43 You Are Fired
Jenny took out the recorder and pressed the switch. There was a conversation between the two.
“Jenny, I have transferred 40 thousand dollars to your account. I will give you the other 40 thousand dollars after the matter is done. With this money, you will be able to treat your son. Isn’t your son’s health your wish?” The young woman’s voice on the recorder was Susie’s.
Jenny sounded nervous and excited. “So much money… Ms. Hodgson, I wonder what you want me to do?”
“It’s very simple. All you need to do is to replace Melissa’s design,” Susie said.
“But … if someone finds out…” Jenny hesitated.
“Don’t worry, just pretend to clean up when no one is around. No one will find out.”
Susie seemed to chuckle. “Besides, you earn that much a month as a cleaner. How many years would you have to work for 80 thousand dollars? Wouldn’t it be better for both of us if you just quit your job and went to the countryside to hide out until the storm blows over and looked for another job?” This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Jenny was convinced and said, “Okay, I agree!”
Susie was very satisfied. “That’s right. When the time comes, I will inform you. Remember, this is only between us!”
“Don’t worry, Ms. Hodgson. I won’t tell anyone,” Jenny promised.
The recording came to a sudden halt.
“Susie, what else do you have to say?” Melissa sneered and looked at Susie.
“No, it was not me!” Susie’s face was pale and her forehead was covered in sweat. She subconsciously refused to admit it.
She absolutely could not admit it!
“We all heard it. This is your voice.” Melissa unhurriedly turned on the computer and opened an email. “I have proof if you must say it wasn’t you.”
Melissa opened the email and enlarged it so that everyone could see the contents.
“This is the money transfer from Jenny’s bank account. I asked a friend to check it. The money
transfer to Jenny was from an overseas account and the account was opened by…”
Melissa paused for a moment and looked at Susie with a cold gaze. “Susie, it’s your father, Cesar Hodgson.”
Susie widened her eyes in disbelief. She wondered, Why could Melissa find out her father’s account?
She had done it very carefully!
“Susie, with all the evidence, do you still think I wronged you?” Melissa snapped.
“No … This is impossible…” Susie’s voice trembled, and she wanted to defend herself, but all her words were stuck in her throat.
The truth was here. Whatever she said was in vain.
Susie knew she screwed up.
“Melissa, it is you. It is you!” Susie’s eyes turned red because of anger. She glared at Melissa and raised her hand to hit her. “Melissa, you bitch, all of this is your trap!”
“Trap?” Melissa grabbed Susie’s hand and pushed her away. She revealed a mocking smile. “Susie, if you hadn’t plotted against me first, how could I have caught something against you? You asked for it!”
“Susie, why did you do this?” Murray, who had been sitting quietly, suddenly spoke, his handsome eyes covered with ice, and even the temperature in the conference hall seemed to drop several degrees.
“Mr. Gibson, I…” Seeing Murray’s cold gaze, Susie felt as if she had fallen into an icehouse.
“Susie, you are fired. From now on, you are no longer an employee of the Gibson Corporation,” Murray said coldly.
I’m fired? Susie thought.
Hearing this, her face turned pale.
“No, Mr. Gibson, you can’t fire me!” Susie was completely overwhelmed emotionally. She threw herself at Murray and shouted, “Murray, I did this all because of you! I love you! I love you. Do you know? Ever since I entered the company and saw you for the first time, I fell in love with you!”
“Get out!” Murray pushed Susie away in disgust, and Susie fell to the ground.
Susie’s forehead hit the corner of the table, and blood flowed out. She looked like a mess now.
She looked up, obsessed with looking at the indifferent man in front of her. “But, you never look at me, no matter how hard I work, no matter how much I do for you, you never look at me.
“I always thought it was in your nature to be so cold to all women, and I believed that faith would make a difference and that if I tried, you would see me someday, and love me.
“However, since Melissa came, everything had changed!
“You only have eyes for her! Why should a country bumpkin be your fiancée? Why should she deserve your love? She doesn’t deserve it. That bitch doesn’t!”
Melissa was speechless. She was so wrong.
She was just a nominal fiancée.
The girl Murray liked was Lily…
Melissa didn’t expect Susie to love Murray so much. Unfortunately, Susie fell in love with the wrong person and in the wrong way.
Blinded by jealousy, she sacrificed the interests of the company and ruined her future for Murray by framing Melissa.
“Susie, you have ten minutes to leave the Gibson Corporation. I never want to see you again!” Murray suddenly stood up and narrowed her eyes slightly, looking down at Susie on the ground, with disgust and coldness in his eyes.
“No, Murray, listen to me. I love you… Please don’t drive me away… Please…”
Susie wanted to say something, but Alex quickly pulled her away. “Susie, Mr. Gibson doesn’t want to see you. You should leave now!”
Melissa’s eyes flickered slightly as she watched Susie cry.
She was just fighting fire with fire, and if she had made a mistake, she might have been the one being sent away now.
“That’s enough for today. I don’t want to see it happen again.” Murray scanned the room with his piercing eyes.
His aura was too strong, and in front of him, everyone could not help but lower their heads, except for Melissa.
Murray walked steadily out of the conference room and paused in the doorway. He turned his head and looked at Melissa with significant eyes. “Melissa, come to my office.”
