Cosset You Forever novel Chapter 1166

According to company rules, all employees must possess a bachelor's degree or above.

Of course, Sophia wasn't a college graduate either. His mother had found a way to bend the rules for her.

He hadn't looked any further into Jamie's background for Sophia. Jamie now found herself standing on the edge of cliff.

"... It was Mr. Qu, HR Manager." So that was it. She had taken advantage of Mr. Qu's weakness for young, pretty girls.

"Jamie, you're fired! Pack your stuff and leave immediately!" Colin's order took the air out of the room. Jamie felt weak in the knees.

In spite of the other people in the room, Jamie began to beg with Colin right away. "Please Mr. Li, just give me another chance!"

Personal secretary to the CEO of SL group was in fact a desirable job, one with a degree of prestige and a high salary.

If she lost this job, what would she do? It would be near impossible to find something this good.

Colin was disgusted with Jamie grabbing his hand and begging. He pulled away from her quickly. "You want to stay here?"

"Yes, Mr. Li, I will work harder in the future, I promise!"

Jamie threw her hands up and swore. She used to believe that Colin felt different about her than other women. Now, she was beginning to doubt it.

"OK. Miss Lo, come with me."

Confused, Sophia walked over to Jamie and Colin. What did he want now?

"Mr. Li."

"Miss Lo, I need you to teach Miss Chiao a lesson. I need you to teach her how to deal with other people."

"Ummm…" Sophia was stunned. What was he getting at?

Jamie was likewise dumbfounded. Neither woman understood what Colin was getting at.

"Did or didn't Jamie said you seduced me? Well? It is true?" Colin looked directly into Sophia's eye. He nearly winked.

Sophia clinched her jaw and firmly denied it. "Of course not!"

Colin was unhappy with what he heard. Still, he continued speaking, "Sophia, I need you to return Jamie the slap she gave you some days ago. As a secretary of SL Group, you need to learn how to stand up for yourself."

...

The office was dead silent. This was the culmination of Colin's plan!

Herring couldn't help but smirk to himself. So this was his plan all along! He helped Sophia take her revenge on Jamie.

Sophia looked at Colin's steely eyes. She was taken aback.

Did he just say? That she should return the slap on Jamie?

"Well, come on. What are you waiting for?" Colin prompted her impatiently.

Jamie's eye's were wide. She was terrified at what was coming. She begged, "Mr. Li… Mr. Li, I know what I did was wrong. I'm very, very sorry. I promise never to do it again."

"Sophia, stop wasting my time. Punish her." Colin looked at the hesitated woman in care and disappointment.

Sophia set her jaw and raised her hand high. SMACK! Sophia slapped Jamie's cheek hard with meaty part of her palm.

"Ah!" Jamie winched with pain and covered her face with hands. She dared not speak.

Colin looked at Sophia, who was rubbing her hands together, a satisfied look on her face. "Miss Lo, what are you doing? Did you slap her?"

"Huh?" Perplexed, Sophia looked back at Colin. Hadn't Colin seen her do it?

"I didn't hear anything. It doesn't count."

...

Jamie nearly threw herself at Colin's feet. "Mr. Li, I know it's my fault. I'm so sorry. Mr. Li, please.."

"It's your choice, the job or this punishment?" Colin spoke in a mild, matter-of-fact manner.

Jamie stopped whining immediately. She bit her lower lip and stopped talking. She closed her eyes, and braced herself for the next blow.

"Miss Chiao, if you promise never to…
