Chapter 301
julian Cole was silent for a few seconds before blurting out, “Ms. Carter, why do you want to see the HR nanager?”
Why? Afraid I’ll fire you?”
Mia Carter saw right through him.
ulian immediately forced a laugh. “Of course not. You’re so young, beautiful, smart, and fair, Ms. Carter. You lefinitely wouldn’t fire someone without a good reason.”
Get out.”
His flattery didn’t move her in the slightest.
ulian took three steps back for every one forward, looking for an excuse to stay, but eventually, he had no choice >ut to leave.
Near, noon, the Human Resources manager finally arrived.
I’m sorry, Ms. Carter. I didn’t know you were coming in today. The campus recruitment schedule was set a week
go.”
Nora Gonzalez was in her forties, slightly plump, and a typical corporate woman. She wore thick, black-rimmed lasses, and behind the lenses, her small eyes sparkled with shrewdness.
It’s fine. Work comes first.”
Mia studied her for a moment. “How did recruitment go?”
Nora shook her head. “College students these days have high expectations but little skill. They think because they ave a degree, they’re worth a monthly salary of $100,000. There were no good fits.”
I need a secretary,” Mia said, getting straight to the point.
I haven’t hired one yet.” Nora’s tone sounded helpless, but her attitude was unapologetic.
Mia replied, “Call headquarters. Tell them to transfer Stella Lewis from the secretarial office to work with me.”
Nora was stunned. “This… would she even be willing to come all this way?”
Just do it.” Mia’s eyes were clear and penetrating.
Her face was too beautiful-so beautiful it was almost aggressive. When she turned serious and solemn, she adiated an undeniable authority that demanded obedience.
Nora lowered her head. “I’ll try to find someone here as soon as-”
You work for Bayview. Bayview belongs to the Hales. The person who pays your salary and holds your employment contract is Ethan Hale. If you can’t figure out who your boss is, your time as HR manager is over.”
Mia cut her off with cold, sharp words.
Nora’s face turned pale and then flushed with anger. “Ms. Carter, I don’t know what you’re talking about. You just transferred here and you’re already demanding people from headquarters? It makes it look like I’m incompetent.

If
you want a secretary, I’ll hire you one…”

Mia opened her right-hand drawer, pulled out a termination agreement, and placed it in front of Nora.
I signed a long-term contract with the company. You can’t fire me.”
Nora’s expression shifted, and her attitude became defiant. “You’re just trying to make a statement because you’re new. You can’t just fire people for no reason! I haven’t made any mistakes, and I haven’t provoked you!”
Mia stood up, leaning over the desk with her hands supporting her weight.
‘Since joining the company, you’ve abused your power to hire dozens of employees, from logistics staff to high-level executives, in direct violation of company policy. Not only am I firing you, but I’m also demanding you return two months’ worth of salary. If you have any objections, I’ll add a claim for breach of contract penalties.”
As Mia spoke each word deliberately, Nora’s face grew increasingly pale. She was visibly panicked.
When Mia finished, the office fell into a deathly silence.
Nora studied Mia, trying to find any sign that she was bluffing.
But there was none. Mia wasn’t joking.
Ms. Carter, I… I was just in a tough spot! I’m begging you, give me a chance. Don’t fire me, okay? I’ll listen to you
‘rom now on!”
Nora’s tone shifted instantly, her face turning from pale to a deep red.
Even though she was older than Mia, she had struggled for years in the business world to reach the position of HR nanager. If she lost this job, the last few decades of her hard work would become a joke.
“Zoe, I’ve placed your Beta necklace on Alpha Ethan’s desk. He has approved your resignation, but he didn’t realize it was you leaving. Should I remind him?”…
