Chapter 231
Sophia was momentarily taken aback. Then, however, she followed along with the crowd, eager to see what was happening.
As soon as she stepped out of the lift, she heard someone crying in the lobby. “Why are you firing me? I’ve been dedicated to serving the Kane family for almost twenty years. And now you’re letting me go without any compensation. This is going to ruin my life! I’m going to take legal action against you!”
The HR manager downstairs explained, “Ms. Lane, we tried to reach you multiple times. yesterday and explained the situation. But you refused to listen and hung up on us. You didn’t come to handle the procedures, nor did you come to work. So we had to mark it as an unexcused absence. If you’re not satisfied, you can apply for labor arbitration. It won’t help to create a disturbance here.”
“You’re the ones who didn’t want me to come here, so how can this be considered an
unexcused absence? You’re bullying me! I demand to speak with Mr. Kane! I want to see Keegan Kane!”
“Mr. Kane is busy at the moment. He asked me to handle your case. If you’re unsatisfied with the result, you can file a lawsuit. But if you make a scene here, I’m sorry, I may have to ask security to escort you out.”
The HR manager gestured to the security officers. As the security officers were about to move forward, Maya broke through the crowd and ran up to the second floor. She climbed over the railing and threatened the guards, “Don’t come near me! If you do, I’ll jump!”
The lobby on the first floor was about five to six meters high. If Maya jumped, she would not die but would definitely get injured.
Therefore, as soon as she made this threat, the security officers hesitated to approach her. They were worried that any accidents could harm the company, and no one wanted to bear that responsibility.
Maya seized on this and insisted on seeing Keegan. “I’ve served the Kane family with all my heart and done nothing wrong. So why does Mr. Kane want to fire me? I refuse to accept it! I’ll jump from here if Mr. Kane doesn’t explain today!”
The HR manager frowned, “Ms. Lane, your behavior is meaningless. We’re following the contract and acting under the law.”
“Is forcing someone into a corner the only way to follow a contract? Don’t come any closer, or I’ll jump if you do!”
