Chapter 28 A Big Blow

Chapter 28 A Big Blow

As soon as Christian appeared, Florence knew her fate.

It was quite unexpected to her that she could still work in the company for so long since she offended Giselle last time.

During this period, Florence worked in the company with fears, feeling as if she was walking on eggshells.

Should she be fired for no reason? It was not so easy.

Hearing Christian's dismissal of Florence, Emmett and Giselle smiled complacently, and other employees who watched the show were talking about the matter.

Some people felt sorry for Florence, and someone thought that Florence bit off more than she could chew.

When Christian stopped saying and was about to leave, Florence said, "Mr. Sawyer, I have signed a five-year labor contract with the company. The contract has not expired. You dismissed me for no reason. According to the contract, you shall pay me three times of my monthly salary and also compensate me for at least six months of salary."

Once she finished the words, the onlookers were all silent that they could even hear it even if a needle fell at this time.

Was Florence crazy?

Was she barking against the big boss?

Claiming compensation?

She must be crazy. She had simply overreached herself.

Giselle was also very surprised and said shrilly, "Florence, you are crazily poor. Why are you asking for three times your salary? My dad runs the company. He can fire whoever he wants. You count as nothing."

Emmett took the chance to chill in, "Florence, if you still want to work in this field, you’d better get out of here quickly."

Florence curled her lips, ignoring Emmett and Giselle, and looked at Christian, "Mr. Sawyer, what do you think?"

Christian grinned back and said, "This is my company. Why? I can't fire a person?"

"Of course, Mr. Sawyer, if you’re unwilling to pay my girlfriend the compensation, you can use something else to compensate. "

This voice?

Florence suddenly turned her head and looked at Alexander with a surprised expression that seemed to say "Why are you here?".

Standing behind the crowd, Courtney was relieved when she saw her son coming. Since he dared to bully her future daughter-in-law, she would let her son teach him a lesson.

Everyone looked back. The tailored suit made Alexander look taller than others and his deep facial features were full of coldness. He walked with a manner of overlooking the crowd.

Many female colleagues blushed because he was too handsome and cool.

Even Giselle was infatuated with him.

Alexander went over to her, only looking at Florence with tenderness, "Go to rest aside. I'll do the rest."

At that moment, Florence did not know why Alexander's words had magic power. She subconsciously nodded, "Okay."

She trusted and relied on Alexander unconditionally.

Countless female colleagues felt envious after seeing the scene.

Florence was so fortunate that she could have such a handsome boyfriend.

Giselle was jealous with green eyes. She looked at Florence's boyfriend, and then at Emmett. The comparison instantly showed that Emmett was nothing and her previous judgement was too poor.

Emmett also noticed Giselle's changes, and he was a little bit flustered. The appearance of Alexander made men feel embarrassed and captivated women.

Christian was also stunned by Alexander's strong aura. He had been engaged in business for decades and had seen countless people, but very few of them had such a powerful aura.

Alexander glanced at Christian coldly, with his thin lips curling lightly, "Mr. Sawyer, pay triple compensation or something else?"

Christian returned to realize that he was shocked by a young man. This was his company and so many employees were watching them. So he, the big boss, couldn't be frightened.

Christian burst with anger, "Florence's absent from work for no reason has caused heavy losses to the company. She has to bear the company's losses. Not to mention compensation, She would

receive no money and then my lawyer will send you a lawyer's letter."

His words were full of complacency.

Alexander curled his lips and said something meaningful, "Mr. Sawyer. You indeed have suffered a heavy loss."

The dismissal of Florence would be the company's biggest loss.

But Christian did not realize it this now.

Alexander walked closer to Christian, and suddenly he reached out and grabbed Christian by the collar.

Everyone in the room took a deep breath.

Was he going to get physical?

Alexander had beaten Nicholas before, so Florence hurriedly said, "Alexander."

Florence didn't know that this name was a big blow for Christian.

Alexander?

The leader of the Logan family?

Christian forgot to react because of astonishment.

Wasn't there rumor that Alexander was disfigured and disabled?

Alexander didn't get physical, but just said a word in Christian's ear. No one knew what he said, but they only saw Christian's face instantly turned pale.

As soon as Alexander let go, Christian's legs were so weak that he plonked himself down on the ground.

"Dad, what's the matter with you? Dad." Giselle panicked.

Alexander had a condescending squint at Christian, then walked to Florence and held her hand, "You must be hungry. Let's go to eat."

The two left as if nobody was present.

Christian drew a long face and muttered, "It's over, over."

"Dad, what's over?" Giselle helped Christian up, "Just Florence. She made the company suffer heavy losses. Let's sue her to compensate for the loss."

Giselle had already wondered to make trouble for Florence, so Florence's boyfriend would definitely abandon Florence. Then she would have a chance.

"What do you know?" Christian suddenly yelled, "You prodigal daughter, the Sawyer family will be ruined because of you."

These words made Giselle feel puzzled, and Emmett plucked up himself to ask, "Mr. Sawyer, does Florence's boyfriend have a strong background?"

If Emmett didn't ask, it was okay. But with this question, he directly made himself a target.

Christian looked at Emmett and became angrier, "Throw this person out."

"Mr.Sawyer." Emmett panicked after he saw security guards arriving. So he quickly interceded, "Giselle, quickly say a few words to your dad. Giselle, Mr. Sawyer..."

Emmett was dragged to be thrown out, which was extremely embarrassed and awkward.

Giselle was so frightened that she did not dare to speak, and the rest people in the company did not even dare to breathe.

...

Florence, who had left the company, was having lunch with Alexander at a restaurant.

Courtney was also here, and she kept putting food in Florence's bowl and asking her what she liked.

Florence was very embarrassed. Did she, an incapable daughter-in-law, meet her mother-in-law in the end?

Florence stared at Alexander secretly. Alexander even didn't inform her in advance.

Alexander's eyebrows and eyes showed smiles, "My mom had just gone back from a trip. She heard that I had a girlfriend, so she couldn't wait to see you. Did my mom scare you?"

Florence was not scared, but she was very surprised and was at a loss.

Travelling?

Courtney glanced at her son. When did she go travelling?

After receiving the warning in her son's eyes, Courtney immediately understood and smiled, "Yes, I just got back from a trip. If I’ve known my son had a girlfriend, I would not have went out for travelling. I should have come to see you earlier."

"Madame, I should visit you first." Florence was flattered, "I didn't know in advance that you were back. I wish you won't blame me for being impolite."

Holding Florence's hand, she was very enthusiastic, "Florrie, drink this soup. It is good for your health. You are too thin and need to build up."

Alexander looked at Florence up and down and nodded, "Actually a little bit thin."

Florence rolled her eyes at Alexander and asked, "Why are you here? And why are you attired so formally?"

Naturally, Alexander would not tell Florence that he had left the senior leaders of the Logan Group and hurried to her company.

Courtney smiled and said, "I asked him to come. I saw Christian was fond of bullying people. I quickly called my son and asked him to come to rescue you. This are the new clothes I brought him from my trip and I forced him to wear it. Florrie, how does he look now? Handsome?"

"Very handsome." Florence was not suspicious. Alexander was very fascinating normally. When wearing formal clothes, he was more handsome and had an aura of abstinence. It made her want to take off his clothes and do something to him.

When she realized that she had thought about other things, Florence quickly returned to her senses and looked away.

Alexander caught a glimpse of Florence's red ears. A big smile touched the corners of his mouth. He whispered in her ear in a voice which can only be heard by them, "You can do whatever you want to me after going back home at night."

Florence blushed and her eyes widened.

Did Alexander know how to read people's minds? Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Why did he know what she was thinking?

Florence shyly slapped Alexander, "What nonsense are you talking?"

Alexander easily held Florence's hand with their fingers clasped tightly.

Florence thought that Courtney was here, so she pulled her hand back shyly, and her face flushed even more.

Seeing Florence and Alexander flirting with each other, Courtney felt so happy.

When was the last time she saw her son smiling?

Not to mention showing so many emotions naturally.

Courtney believed firmly that Florence would be her future daughter-in-law.

Whoever dared to bully her daughter-in-law must be her enemy.

Thinking of what happened just now, Florence asked, "What did you say to Mr. Sawyer just now?"

How could he scare him like that?

In fact, if Alexander didn't come, Florence could also solve the matter.

She had been in the company for many years, and if she didn't have the ability to protect herself, she wouldn't have stayed for so long.

Florence was not a person who liked to cause trouble, but she was not a weak person to be bullied at will.

Alexander said with a half truth, "I said that his biggest loss is losing you, such a good employee."

"So simple?" Florence didn't believe it.

"Uh, I also threatened him. If he troubles you again, I will punch him."

Florence smiled, "This is your style, but you can't beat people in the future. We are in a constitutional society now, not fighting."

Florence was very worried abut Alexander's character.

Alexander smiled softly, "Well, I’ll listen to you."

Courtney found that her son was as obedient as a sheep in front of Florence. He was not angry at all, but he was very happy.

There was always one thing to conquer another.

She finally found someone to whom her son would make compromises.

After eating, Alexander handed Florence to Courtney, "Mom, please take Florrie to go shopping."

"Okay, no problem." Courtney was very pleasant, "Florrie, can you accompany me to go shopping in the mall?"

"Okay."

Florence felt the warmth of motherly love from Courtney, and was willing to accompany her.

Everyone said that the contradiction between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was a eternal problem. But they got along very well with each other. She did not have to worry about this problem.

After Alexander watched the two go away, he turned to get in a Maybach next to him.

Easton had been waiting for him here, with William sitting in the back seat.

"Boss, you were a bit reckless today, the Logans must have doubted you." William reminded.

"The Logan family has been too peaceful recently. It's time to make the condition complex." Alexander frowned slightly, "Tomorrow morning, I want to see the news that the Sawyer Group disappears in Croycor."

William asked, "Does this have anything to do with Logan family?"

"No." Alexander said calmly, "But Florrie was bullied."

He did this only to vent his anger and help his girlfriend.

William was rendered speechless, he could only pitied the bad luck of the Sawyer family. Why did they provoke Alexander' girlfriend?

Did he want to die?

Florence didn't know that a sentence said by Alexander made all the senior leaders of the Logan Group worked overtime to acquire the Sawyer Group overnight. Anyway, this was happening.
