Back to the Past Breaking the Love Spell (Carlisle Zahn) novel Chapter 135

Chapter 135 

“I’m not sure about the details. I’ll call you once I’ve confirmed them.” 

After ending the call, Carlisle walked toward the group of labor department staff that was busy calming the employees in the middle of the road. 

A woman was sitting on the ground and sobbing. “That jerk hasn’t paid us for three months, and now he’s run away. I can’t even put food on the table for my family. What am I supposed to do now?” 

“Ma’am, please calm down. You’ll get your money back!” 

Bella Hopkins, a staff from the Labor Department squatted in front of the woman, trying to comfort her. 

“Then you should pay us now! What good is it just talking about it?” the woman shouted at Bella. 

“We can only assist you in applying for labor arbitration, which requires going through a process!” Bella explained gently. 

“How long will the process take? A month? A year?” 

The woman was skeptical of the staff’s words and continued to cry. 

“My relative had a similar situation a few years ago with a factory closure. The boss ran away, and he still hasn’t received his wages!” 

The woman seemed doubtful and continued to cry. 

Bella sighed helplessly. She walked to a nearby carton of bottled water. She took a bottle from it and 

handed it to the woman. 

“Ma’am, crying isn’t the solution. Have some water!” 

The woman took the bottled water. She took a few sips and continued to wail. 

Bella returned to the group and looked for the team leader, Kane Wright. 

“Kane, there are too many of them here. We can’t handle them all.” 

Kane sighed helplessly. “Caleb’s phone is no longer reachable. He even fled abroad. It would be difficult for us to manage these employees…” 

After speaking, he asked the company’s human resources manager, Mila Jenkins. 

“How many staff are there in your company?” 

“About 16 hundred staff,” Mila replied. She seemed to be relatively calm. 

“The employees haven’t received their wages for three months?” Kane continued to ask. 

“Yes, all employees haven’t been paid for three months. Mr. Davis‘ aunt is the finance manager. She has been helping him deceive us by saying they haven’t received payment for the goods!” 

“Does the company still have any stock?”

“We ran out of stock last month. The employees had nothing to do and had been cleaning the workshop or assembling subcontracted game consoles. 

“Mr. Davis must have planned his escape a long time ago!” Mila lowered her head and sighed. 

“Have the employees file for labor arbitration. We’ll expedite the process and then let the court handle it.” 

Kane felt heavy–hearted. Now that Caleb had fled abroad, it would be difficult to catch him. 

He could only wait for the court to liquidate the company’s assets and try to compensate the employees‘ 

losses. 

Just then, a male staff member from the labor department walked over and said, “Kane, there are two guests who want to see you.” 

Kane turned. When he saw Carlisle and Hank, he thought they were also the company’s employees. 

He said helplessly, “Talking to me won’t help you. You have to go through the labor arbitration process!”
