Regret Came Too Late (Grace and Ethan) novel Chapter 205

The executive was feeling pleased with his proposal when Ethan put down the document in his hand and asked indifferently, "Are you done?"

"Yes, I'm done. I know you're very busy, so I'll take care of her," replied the executive.

Ethan then called Tim in.

Tim pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose and announced with a smile, "You're fired."

The executive thought he had misheard it. He straightened his back and looked at Tim, then at Ethan.

Ethan never looked up at the executive; he was as cold as ever.

The executive's face reddened, and his lips trembled. "Mr. Henderson, my recent performance has been quite good, and several projects have made a profit. I would like to know why I'm fired."

Ethan put down the pen in his hand, took out several reports from the side, and answered indifferently, "You're involved in corrupt activities."

The executive's face instantly flushed red. He had done this very discreetly, and it was like an unwritten rule. He took the money from the partner company, so it couldn't be considered as taking advantage of Henderson Group.

He had done this before, but he never expected to get caught this time. "Mr. Henderson, everyone does this. Why am I the one getting fired?"

Ethan leaned back, and his good mood had completely disappeared. "They're not as tactless as you."

The executive's face went from flushed to pale, but he still had no idea how he was being tactless. Wasn't he just trying to help the company?

Tim gestured for the executive to leave. The executive hung his head and slowly walked out, resigned to the outcome.

Upon hearing that one executive had been laid off, the employees on the executive's floor were whispering among themselves.

Normally, there would be prior notice as changes in the executive management of Henderson Group were a significant matter. Yet, there was no news this time. It was an abrupt change.
