Love and Devotion No Longer His to Claim (Angela and Dexter) novel Chapter 219

Sean stood in the doorway of the hospital room. His large frame was almost too big to fit through.

Before he even stepped inside, he pointed at Angela's nose and started yelling, "You vicious woman! My dad worked tirelessly for your family his entire life, and this is how he ends up? How can you be so heartless?

"I've seen people bite the hand that feeds them, but I've never seen someone as stupid as you—striking before you've even secured your place. Aren't you afraid people will curse you behind your back?"

He looked like he had the moral high ground with his show of aggression.

Angela crossed her arms before smiling. "Mr. Sean, don't get so worked up. When did I ever bite the hand that feeds me? I merely got rid of a parasite—you. At most, Mr. Andrew's reputation being affected is just collateral damage. That's hardly what I'd call biting the hand that feeds me. Wouldn't you agree?"

It was true. Andrew was still too valuable to remove him from the company. He held control over numerous clients and projects, and if she acted against him now, she'd only be putting herself at a disadvantage.

"What?" Sean was even more furious. "You fired me? On what grounds? What did I do wrong?"

"Shut it!" Andrew snapped, his face dark with anger.

This idiot! Was he trying to walk straight into a trap?

Sean, however, looked completely clueless. "Dad, this woman is firing me, and you're just going to sit there and let it happen? I'm your son!"

Andrew wished he could slap some sense into his foolish son. Sean's blunder had already become public knowledge.

If he openly defended Sean now, people would only gossip more behind his back. How would he have any credibility left to challenge Angela by then?

"Mr. Andrew, what do you say?" Angela's tone was slow and deliberate.

Andrew clenched his jaw before forcing out the words. "Sean has indeed been negligent in his duties this time. He should step away for a while to reflect and improve himself. Once he's matured, he can return. I'm sure no one will have any objections then."

Angela was almost at a loss for words.
