TimeNovelChapter 282 Chapter 282: "Later," a female employee said, nervously eyeing Brian before rushing on. "Juliet Mendez's sister arrived, who happens to be Holden Ellsworth's partner. Holden didn't just make Rachel Marsh kneel; he also..." Brian interrupted, his voice cold, "What else?" The employee trembled and added, "He had his men handle her forcibly, all while Holden, struck by Rachel's allure, wished to keep her close." At that moment, the cup in Brian's grip crumbled to pieces. The room's occupants flinched, their gazes fixed on the floor, silence hanging heavily in the air. Ronald was quick to approach and began tidying the mess on the desk. He alone understood the depth of Brian's fury.

The employees, recognizing the severity of the situation, confirmed the harassment by nodding collectively. With the questioning concluded, Ronald dismissed them. "You may return to your duties now." "Understood." As soon as they exited, Brian's anger erupted. "Compile all relevant details on Holden Ellsworth and schedule a board meeting for his dismissal. He has no place in my company." Ronald affirmed with a nod. "Certainly." "Also, arrange for Juliet Mendez's immediate resignation. Instruct HR to terminate her contract on grounds of breach and demand compensation." "Compensation?" The White Group's contracts were meticulous about stipulations and penalties. As long as it didn't harm the company's interests or cross a line beyond forgiveness, they rarely enforced the contract for compensation. Per the standard agreement, the starting penalty was $200,000. Considering Juliet's position, her penalty might exceed $500,000.
Ronald believed the penalty was harsh, yet it wasn't the end of it.
"Furthermore, file a police report for assault.” Juliet found herself without any tears left, overwhelmed by the consequences. Her arrogance had indeed backed her into a corner. She had often exploited her sister's connection with Holden to intimidate her subordinates, engaging in both verbal and physical assaults. Her retribution was now unfolding, leaving her no ground to claim unfair treatment. She was entirely the architect of her own misfortune. Escape from her actions was impossible. Ronald inquired, "Mr. White, what should we do about the others?" He meant those who had exacerbated the situation by their presence and inaction.

"Understood."
"Also, I need a meeting with all heads of departments and branch om ments and b managers. "I'll set it up right away."
In the elevator, the female employees each took a deep breath, their m complexions ghostly. Brian's authority had been clearly daunting. Yet, they retained their positions.
Being let go from the White Group would make it highly unlikely for them to secure comparable employment elsewhere in the city.
