Seeing that Wrenna was not taking her colleagues' advice, Eren made her an offer.
If he managed to poach her, Matthew would be all alone.
Moreover, Wrenna had a cold personality. If Eren managed to bring her into Freya Group, he could make her do whatever he wanted, including having sex with him.
Alas, Wrenna paid no heed to Eren's words. Instead, she looked at Matthew, only to find the latter's hopeful expression replaced with a scowl again.
His hand holding the phone was trembling.
Matthew had dialed Harold's number twice, but the latter's phone had been switched off.
Phones nowadays had long battery lives. It was practically impossible for a person's phone to be switched off unless he or she went out without a power bank.
Usually, it would be switched off manually by the owner.
And now, something like that was happening, not to mention Harold had applied for leave and switched off his phone.
All those instances made Matthew feel more uneasy.
Having failed to get through Harold's phone after consecutive tries, Matthew had no choice but to turn to Wrenna for help. “Wrenna, give Mr. Campbell a call!”
Wrenna took out her phone and tried dialing Harold's number, but the outcome was the same—the call did not go through.
Wrenna could only look at Matthew and shake her head.
Upon seeing Wrenna's response, Matthew slumped into his chair again.
“He must've fled. Galaxy Media is done for,” Matthew murmured.
Hearing his words, Wrenna said unhappily, “Nonsense. It's just the Sinclair family. Why would he flee from them? I'll go look for him now.”
She pushed her way through the crowd and ran out to look for Harold.
“What do you think, Mr. White? I did warn you that things wouldn't end well if you went against the Sinclair family, didn't I? And now, your last employee has fled. Do you have anything else to say?” said Eren with a smug look on his face.
Everyone else at the scene shared Eren's sentiment. They believed Wrenna did not want to switch to Freya Group. At the same time, she knew Galaxy Media was done for. That was why she came up with an excuse to go out looking for Harold. She was just using the opportunity to leave Galaxy Media.
Even Matthew thought the same.
After all, even the person who could make Dellmoor's Big Three surrender—Harold—had secretly fled. It was only normal for Wrenna to leave as well.
She's already sparing my dignity by not siding with Eren right away.
Matthew did not answer Eren. The former merely sat there in a daze.
All his ex-employees cast him looks of pity.
“Mr. White, you never expected something like this to happen when you fired my wife, didn't you? Well, if you and Harold kneel before Brittany and beg her for forgiveness, I might consider letting you off. Anyway, that's all I have to say. My wife's asking me to go home for a meal. Mr. Tanner, bring them back to our office to complete their onboarding procedure. At the same time, ask the other ordinary employees if they'd like to tag along. Bring them along if they want to. Hahaha...”
Eren laughed gleefully.
A special, breezy feeling flooded his heart.
After all, employees were only salary workers. It was only right for them to work for anyone who gave them higher pay.
As soon as the higher-ups returned to their departments and announced someone was poaching them with three times their current salary, many accepted the offer and left without hesitation.
Just like that, another chain reaction was triggered.
