Chapter 325 One of the executives remarked, "It's not necessary to make a fuss over firing Damian. It's just a small matter." Someone else added, "Exactly. Overreacting over a small mistake would seem outdated and harsh. How would that reflect on our company?" Angela sat silently, fidgeting with a pen between her fingers, a somber expression etched on her face. It was as though she hadn't heard the group's opinions.
Her ambiguous attitude made others exchange glances, thinking she wanted to downplay the situation.
"It's a minor issue. We can just teach him a lesson. But if it gets out, will it damage our company's reputation?" "Reputation? Is reputation built on tolerating crime?" Angela finally asked.
Her quiet voice carried weight, changing everyone's expressions. The person who had been overly confident was now stunned and nervous, at a complete loss for what to do.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"A female employee was secretly photographed today, and you men are quick to forgive him. But what right do you have to do that?" Angela leaned back on the couch, her gaze cold and calm.
The spacious office was completely silent, with everyone still and quiet.
"You probably don't care because the ones being secretly photographed are just women. But when one of you men encounters a pervert like Damian, your attitude will surely change. By then, I fear there won't be any need for this meeting-you'll simply arrest him and deal with it harshly." Angela surveyed the dozen men surrounding her. They were all company executives, including the COO, various managers, department heads, and the lowest rank being an executive assistant.
Among this group, only a handful were women, and none occupied senior roles, leaving even fewer with a voice in the discussions. As a result, women's issues were often overlooked and generalized.
Her words were particularly harsh. Despite the varied reactions, no one spoke up.
Angela had solidified her position as CEO, wielding authority that surpassed all others in the room. They were powerless to do anything but comply.
"So, Ms. Graham, what do you plan to do?" an executive, John Quinton, asked.
John had once been Bill's supporter, but he had maintained a relatively low profile after Angela had cinto power. His steady conduct was likely the reason he had been overlooked by her during that transition.
"Call the police and arrest him. Let this serve as a warning to others." Angela's voice was icy, devoid of any emotion.
The room fell silent as everyone turned to her in disbelief. "Ms.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGraham, this is just a small issue. Is it really necessary to involve the police? This could damage the company's reputation!" Once more, the discussion centered around the company's reputation.
"Ms. Graham, I believe we can
manage this matter internally. If it comes down to it, we can simply let that employee go. There's really no ΕΠ need to involve the police, is there?"
"Our company has recently captured considerable attention and sparked curiosity among numerous netizens. If this issue becomes public, won't everyone just laugh at us?" They began to respond defensively, afraid that Angela might make a reckless decision.
They were clearly just a bunch of old-fashioned thinkers. Anger bubbled up inside Angela as she considered the idea of firing all of them.
Angela sneered. "Enough. He committed a crime. Terminating his employment is too lenient and won't deter others. There's no need to convincefurther." After that, she turned away and ignored them.
