Fooling the newbie was like taking candy from a baby.
“Call George now and let him know we've changed the blueprints. Tell him that whether he moves out or not doesn't matter anymore.” Dorothy glanced at her phone, commanding her to make the call right there in front of her.
She had the situation mostly under control, but she needed to tie up all loose ends to prevent any unexpected surprises.
Natalie hesitated. Her face mirrored her inner turmoil.
“But he's very intimidating. He'll definitely yell at me…”
“Would you rather be sued by the company for damages or be yelled at by him? Your pick.” Dorothy shrugged with her hands spread outward.
This was not a negotiation.
“Is there any other way? If I tell him that, he'll think I'm jerking him around. He'll get back at me for sure.”
“You're an adult; you need to take responsibility for your actions, right?” Dorothy calmly said. She then got up and opened the hotel room door. “Since you're not willing to do it and are still trying to bargain with me, let's just drop it. I'll let the company handle it. The legal team should be in touch with you soon.”
As a final note, she added, “Take care. I won’t see you out.”
Natalie didn't dare utter another word and quickly waved her hands, saying, "I’ll do it! I’ll call him now; just please don’t sue me!"
She hurriedly pulled out her phone, and once the call was connected, Dorothy signaled for her to put it on speaker.
Dorothy needed to hear every word of their conversation.
The call was quickly answered, and an annoyed male voice came through.
“What on earth is going on? You told me the blueprints were fine; was that true? Then why did some lady show up, saying you changed the blueprints and it doesn’t matter whether I move out or not?”
With that, Natalie hung up the phone.
She was clearly scared.
“Ms. Sanchez, I did as you asked, so can you let me off the hook now? Does…does Austin know about this?”
“What do you think?” Dorothy countered. “At your age, you should be focusing on improving yourself, not resorting to cheap tricks. I’ll put in a good word for you. After all, if the tenant agrees to move, you will have made amends. However, I can’t interfere with how the higher-ups decide to deal with you.”
“Will I have to pay any money?” Natalie asked cautiously.
“I don’t know.” Dorothy's words had barely left her lips when Austin’s call came through.
She answered the call and heard a cheerful voice. “George suddenly agreed! You really did solve this issue. Are you free now? Let’s head over to the site again. The investors are also on their way.”

Why didn't Jeffrey call Everett from the office? Lock his door instruct security to not let anyone in and speak to Everett on the phone? Or send him a text giving him a quick summary of what's up and that he's on his way over. That way when he runs into Heather on his way out he informs her Everett already knows....
