Her Life Starts to Spin out of Control novel Chapter 36

In the conference room, all executives were whispering to each other. Such emergency meetings were not a common phenomenon. What was even more surprising was that this was the second such meeting since the company's launch.

Silence engulfed the conference room when Colin walked in.

At the sight of his bruised lips, whispers soared again. Colin glared at the executives till everyone was quiet again.

Without further ado, Colin said, "Dear colleagues, a scandal has happened in our company recently."

The whispers began again. "The company is so young. Why there is another scandal?"

"Who knows? Let's listen to Colin and talk about it later!"

Glancing around, Colin asked, "Where is Quincy?"

When Quincy heard his name, his heart missed a beat. He slowly stood up from his seat. "Mr. Li!"

"Someone has anonymously complained that Mr. Qu abused his power to molest several female employees at our company, causing physical and mental harm to them! These accusations have been proven during an investigation. And it has caused adverse effects. We are here to deliberate over Mr. Qu's behavior! Whether he will leave or not depends on your vote!"

Just then, the conference room bubbled with more whispers. Quincy noticed that everyone was looking at him strangely.

Quincy was nervous. His face pale turned pale, and he broke out in a cold sweat, "Mr. Li... I've been wrongly accused... How could it be?"

He looked around, and his eyes met Sophia's. Quincy understood who had complained. He stopped trembling and became confident. "Mr. Li, it was Sophia, wasn't it? When Sophia asked me for leave, I didn't approve. Then, she tried to seduce me and threatened me with dire consequences. I still didn't give in! But I did not expect that she would make a false countercharge!"

Sophia was not perturbed by Quincy's ridiculous claims.

"Mr. Qu, lightning will strike you, if you tell lies!" When Sophia spoke, Quincy became afraid. She continued, "Mr. Qu, I remember clearly what you said to me in the office. You took my hand and said that you would approve of my leave application only if I agreed to have an affair with you! God sees everything. Mr. Qu, did you think about that before speaking?"

Compared to Quincy's dodge, Sophia seemed more open and confident. The executives felt Sophia's claims to be more sincere than Quincy's.

Quincy continued to argue, "Mr. Li, don't believe Sophia! Miss Lien, the Lien's Deputy General Manager also knew that Sophia is promiscuous, seducing men all the time..."

"Enough!" Colin roared suddenly, interrupting Quincy's nonsense!

Sophia clenched her fists! Dorothy! Again! Damn! That woman knew how to spread rumors!

Colin took out an item from his pocket. It was a recording pen. He turned it on, and a woman's voice blared over its tiny speaker. "I am reporting that Mr. Qu from the Personnel department leveraged my leave application to assault me earlier this month indecently!" The voice belonged to Miss Chiao.

There was a pause, and then another woman's voice pervaded through the conference room. "I am Lucia Lau from the Financial Management department. I report that Mr. Qu from the Personnel department responded to my leave application e-mail with a proposal to have an affair with him!"

……

Several women's claims followed in succession. Altogether thirteen female employees, four of whom had used their real names, had voiced their concern over Quincy's behavior.

Only when all executives burst into an uproar did it dawn on Mr. Qu that he was just disgracing himself.

As President, Colin wouldn't have accused him without evidence.

Quincy's legs felt weak, and he fell into his chair, pale as death. He looked like a prisoner, waiting for his sentencing.

After everyone had voted, the unanimous decision was in favor of Quincy's employment being terminated.

The female employees who had been humiliated but dared not to speak out were all anxious to thank Colin after hearing that he had personally sent someone to conduct an investigation and fired Quincy!

Back at his office, Colin sent an e-mail to all employees, and it read. 'It is our duty and obligation to protect every employee at our company. When confronted with challenges that you cannot speak about, please send an e-mail to Mr. Ji. You can choose to share your identity or send in your concern anonymously. We will respect your choice...

At noon the next day, Sophia heard someone talking about Quincy. She already knew what had happened. She wasn't paying attention until she heard something that surprised her.
