A Mix-up Made Me His Enemy's Woman novel Chapter 77

Chapter 77

“Let’s take wedding photos on that cruise ship,” Silas said.

Bethany said nothing in response for a while.

“Cruise ship?”

Silas smiled faintly. “The voucher you gave me last time. We might as well put them to use. We can travel and get the wedding photos done.”

“Alright.”

Bethany couldn’t tell which of Silas‘ words were true and which were false. But they needed to take wedding photos eventually.

Diana stormed into Elysian the next day. She couldn’t just let things slide when Bethany refused to see her.

Antonio looked at his sister as if she were his savior. “Diana, your daughter’s been way too aggressive lately.”

Diana frowned. “What has she done now?”

“She’s replaced a bunch of veteran employees since joining the company. Now, a lot of staff members are upset. Who knows who her next target will be!”

Diana pressed her lips together. “Call her. Tell her to come here immediately.”

Antonio’s face lit up, knowing his sister was about to put his niece in her place. He coughed and pretended to mediate the two. “Don’t be too hard on Beth. She’s still young-”

Diana took a deep breath. “If she’s so young, why didn’t you stop her from causing chaos around here?”

Antonio choked on his words and said nothing more. He simply called Bethany on the internal line and told her to come over.

When Bethany pushed the door open, she paused. “Did you need something?”

The polite but distant tone seemed aimed at both of them, but Diana felt like her daughter was mocking her alone.

Diana furrowed her brow, her face stern. “Beth, I didn’t put you in charge of this company for you to run wild. Are you playing house by firing employees at will?”

Bethany glanced at Diana coolly. “In what capacity are you lecturing me, Ms. Reeves?”

Diana bristled. “What? I’m your mother. Can’t I say a few words to you?”

Bethany smiled faintly. “It seems Uncle Antonio didn’t tell you why I fired those employees.

“The head of security was negligent and allowed the media to barge into a guest’s hotel room to ambush them. Should he not have been replaced?”

“The procurement supervisor was caught substituting substandard products. Should he not have been fired?

“And most recently, the operations supervisor, Yvonne.” Bethany’s lips curved upward.

“She was suspected of trying to seduce a client, which led to the client’s wife making a scene at our office. That created extremely negative publicity for the company. Yet we still offered her the standard severance required by labor law. Wasn’t that generous enough?

“If Elysian hires people from top to bottom based on connections and favors, it will destroy this company!”

She fixed her gaze on Diana. “So, I’m asking you, Ms. Reeves, who exactly is playing house here?”

Being confronted like this by her daughter in front of her own brother humiliated Diana. Her chest tightened painfully, and she raised her hand and slapped Bethany across the face.

Both Antonio and Bethany froze. Antonio hadn’t expected his sister to get so worked up.
