His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 394

Marissa stormed back into her office, pulled out her chair, and sat down hard. She slammed the flash drive onto the desk and glared across the room.

"What kind of garbage did you people put together? If you can't do your jobs properly, then pack up your things and get out."

The deputy manager of the project team stood at her desk with his head lowered, stammering, "Ms. Scott, please calm down."

"You're the new deputy project manager?" Marissa leaned back in her chair and narrowed her eyes at the man standing in front of her.

"Yes…" The deputy project manager, Simon Shaw, was drenched in sweat, his voice shaking with fear.

As the CEO, Marissa normally didn't review project proposals herself. That was something delegated to department managers.

The project manager, Paul Yarrow, lowered his head and tried to step in.

"Ms. Scott, Simon just joined the company. He might not be familiar with your standards yet, so—"

Before he could finish, Marissa snapped, her tone sharp.

"Is it that he doesn't understand my standards, or was he just never qualified in the first place—only getting in through connections? You both know the answer to that."

Both men stiffened at her words.

She pointed directly at Simon. "You're fired. Get out. I don't want to see your face again."

"Ms. Scott, please give me another chance!" Simon dropped to his knees.

"Get out!" Marissa barked.

Tears streamed down Simon's face as he begged, "Ms. Scott, I have a family to feed. Please, I need this job. Just give me one more chance. I'll do better. I'll revise the proposal. Please don't fire me…"

Marissa's gaze was cold. She didn't waste another word. She picked up the landline phone on her desk and made a call.

"Send a few security guards to my office. Have Simon removed."

"Yes, Ms. Scott," her assistant responded.
