Chapter 422 Dinner Party

James furrowed his brow slightly as he inquired, "Who?"

Vicky darted a glance at Chloe, feeling certain that James would fire Chloe.

"It's her, the one who hardly ever shows up for work. Today, she finally deigns to grace us with her presence, only to indulge in games. What purpose does such a person serve in the company?"

James followed Vicky's accusing finger, which was pointed directly at Chloe's chest.

"Chloe?"

"Yes. Who else could it be?"

James gently but firmly pulled Vicky away from him. "She can play as she pleases. I permit her to not come to work."

Not only Vicky but the entire Security Department was left stunned.

"James, why?"

Vicky was unconvinced. She couldn't fathom what was so exceptional about Chloe.

"You're not from the Security Department. What business do you have here during working hours?"

Vicky had accused others of slacking, yet she was also neglecting her duties.

Vicky was silenced by these words and fixed her gaze on James.

"No use looking at me. If you're discontent with your current role, I'll inform your father tomorrow that it might be best for you to return to your home."

James was relieved, thinking he might finally have a reason to remove Vicky from Bright Moon International.

"You want to expel me for the sake of such a woman?"

Vicky pointed at herself in disbelief and questioned James loudly.

James was a man who spoke few words and had straightforward actions.

Experiencing the disciplined environment in the army, he found Vicky's shrill tone grating.

"Stop yelling. What do you mean that I expel you for her? You're uncommitted to your work and deliberately ostracize your colleagues. How have I wronged you? Vicky, you'd best reassess your position."

He warned Vicky not to abuse the relationship between their families to become an accomplice to wrongdoers within the company.

Vicky's eyes welled up with tears.

She had never been publicly rebuked before.

"James, I hate you!"

With that, she turned and fled as swiftly as the wind.

James made no move to pursue her, instead breathing a sigh of relief.
