Filthy rich werewolves by Taylor Caine novel Chapter 37

MIA

“What do you mean I’m fired?”

My supervisor stares at me and prattles on about one week of severance and how I need to clear out my desk by the end of the day.

“Why is this happening?” I ask her.

"It's an order from the superiors. You'll be given compensation for the dismissal, but you'll never be employed here again."

I’m in shock.

Several people who attended the reunion party at the club lost their jobs this week too. Maria told me something about Greg Anders business filing for bankruptcy.

Right now… I can only worry about myself.

My family called in every favor and spent thousands on my education to get me the job in the Urban Management Bureau. It’s a government position with exceptional benefits and retirement.

What’s worse, I’ve been on a series of dates and blind dates, and my job is an advantage. I’ve been elevated by the political position that the Bureau afforded me. If one of those guys catches wind that I’ve been fired… I can kiss my chances with them goodbye.

Oh my god, how am I going to tell my family? They’ll be devastated.

I call Maria. She’s my best friend and she knows so many influential people. Surely she can help me. But she won’t take my calls.

I hear from another friend that her family’s house is now in foreclosure.

It’s another three days before more evidence comes to light.

The bank loan that had originally been agreed upon for Maria’s family was suddenly rejected, and the family's capital flow is gone.

One of my coworkers from the Management Bureau finally hears some gossip and secretly tells me I was let go because of a ‘misuse of power.’

The only thing I can think of was asking Grace to send the document. However, on this matter, Maria was the true mastermind!

I try to confront Maria again, and she finally takes my call. But when I bring up the situation with Grace, she blames me.

”I didn't force you to do it, Mia. You wanted to see Grace get humiliated, that's why you were willing to agree. At most, I just gave you an idea. It's your own doing. It has nothing to do with me.

That bitch!

I don’t bother to argue. I just hang up.
