Chapter 1811
“Ellen, if you want to continue working here, you’d better do as we say. Or else, we’ll cause a huge commotion and make you lose your job!” Ajax Andino also took his stand.
“You can’t do that. This is a workplace. You can’t cause a scene here,” Ellen anxiously told them.
“Sir, this is not the place for that, so please leave,” the receptionist warned them sternly.
“What does this have to do with you? If you interfere with our matters again, I’ll mess with you too!” Garrett roared.
By then, Selena had arrived and was watching the scene with her arms crossed. She came forward and greeted, “Uncle Garrett, you came.”
“Lena, come. Be the judge of this situation. Ellen agreed to share the money but then changed her mind. How could she do that?” Nicole grabbed Selena and pulled her over to their side.
The receptionist noticed that things were worsening, so she immediately called security. “Is this security? Some are causing a scene in the lobby.”
Just as she spoke those words, Garrett dashed over and snatched the phone away from her. His actions were so savage that they startled Ellen, and she came out from behind the reception table and pleaded, “Uncle Garrett, please stop causing a scene here! I beg you. Please leave!”
“If you don’t give us our share of the money, you’ll never know peace here!” Garrett threatened.
Instantly, Ellen broke down as tears pooled in her eyes. She felt so weak and helpless at that moment.
Meanwhile, Selena watched happily without uttering anything, wanting to see how Ellen would end this commotion.
Suddenly, Nicole grabbed Ellen and ordered, “Ellen, come with us!”
“I’m not going anywhere.” Ellen struggled to break free. Following that, she felt a large palm delivering a slap on her snowy-white cheeks, leaving a vivid palm print.
She went deaf for a few seconds, and everyone else on the scene was rendered shocked. Yet, the culprit remained unfazed. “If you disobey us again, I’ll punish you!” ordered Garrett.
