“We no longer want the job, Leroy! Also, we'll be leaving first!”
“We no longer want the job, Leroy! Also, we'll be leaving first!”
At the turn of events, the other two classmates who came from Norham to Dellmoor with Monkey to obtain a job through Leroy knew that things had gone awry and quickly left.
“How could you!”
Monkey pointed at their backs in fury, but he didn't know what to say, for he himself wanted to take off then.
Even the wealthiest man in Dellmoor, with assets amounting to over a hundred billion, is terrified of Harold like a slave. Not only did we mock him just now, but we even made things difficult for him during the class reunion back then. Wouldn't I just be staying to head to my death if I don't make a run for it?
At that thought, he steeled his resolve and whirled around to make himself scarce.
As for the promised high pay of tens of thousands a month, I've got no choice but to give it up.
“Stop right there!”
Harold was completely unconcerned when the other two classmates beat a hasty retreat earlier.
But when Monkey wanted to do the same, he stopped the man from doing so.
At his bark, Monkey stiffened and froze on the spot. Mustering his courage, he slowly turned around.
“How may I be of assistance, Mr. Campbell?” Monkey inquired flatteringly, forcing a smile as he pivoted.
“Pick up the documents on the floor and hand them to Mr. Kowalski to check whether the proposal passes muster.”
Harold didn't make things difficult for him, merely asking him to pick up the documents on the floor.
“Huh?”
Sheer surprise flooded Monkey at being asked to do such a simple task that he went motionless.
“You were the one who threw those documents on the floor. Shouldn't I be asking you to pick them up?” Harold questioned, his eyes fixated on the man.
“No... I mean, yes! I'll pick them up right away!”
Hearing him loud and clear this time, Monkey hurriedly crouched and picked up the documents scattered on the ground before handing them to Leroy.
At that very moment, Leroy wore a dark and gloomy expression.
He felt so aggravated that he was on the verge of blowing up.
Initially, I thought I could show off in front of Harold after having climbed to the position of supervisor at such a massive company as Larson Corporation. Unexpectedly, even my boss has to act all servile like a servant before him. Therefore, I'm no more than a joke in his eyes!
Although he knew he probably wouldn't be able to keep his job, he didn't want to give up before the final moment.
Thus, he had no choice but to take the documents from Monkey with his face flushed bright red.
“Pick up the documents on the floor and hand them to Mr. Kowalski to check whether the proposal passes muster.”
Inhaling deeply, he slowly flipped through them.
In truth, he had some capabilities. Otherwise, he wouldn't have possibly been able to hold such a high position of supervisor at a big company like Larson Corporation.
Undeniably, he was pretty satisfied with Galaxy Media's proposal.
But when he reached the last page, he found it ripped, and he couldn't read the contents at all.
“Are you done going through it, Mr. Kowalski? Does this proposal pass muster?”
Despite noticing the frown marring Leroy's countenance, Harold kept his voice mild when he vocalized that question.
“Well...”
That query had Leroy caught between a rock and a difficult place.
This advertising proposal is pretty good, but the contents at the back aren't decipherable. If I were to say yes, Mr. Larson and Mr. Daniel are both here, so they'd definitely feel that I'm perfunctory without considering the company's interests. But if I were to say no, he'd undoubtedly hold a grudge against me. That aside, there's a possibility that Mr. Larson would fire me right away. Larson Corporation is the biggest company in Dellmoor. If I'm fired, no company will dare hire me in the whole of Dellmoor.
