According to company rules, all employees must possess a bachelor's degree or above.
Of course, Sophia wasn't a college graduate either. His mother had found a way to bend the rules for her.
He hadn't looked any further into Jamie's background for Sophia. Jamie now found herself standing on the edge of cliff.
"... It was Mr. Qu, HR Manager." So that was it. She had taken advantage of Mr. Qu's weakness for young, pretty girls.
"Jamie, you're fired! Pack your stuff and leave immediately!" Colin's order took the air out of the room. Jamie felt weak in the knees.
In spite of the other people in the room, Jamie began to beg with Colin right away. "Please Mr. Li, just give me another chance!"
Personal secretary to the CEO of SL group was in fact a desirable job, one with a degree of prestige and a high salary.
If she lost this job, what would she do? It would be near impossible to find something this good.
Colin was disgusted with Jamie grabbing his hand and begging. He pulled away from her quickly. "You want to stay here?"
"Yes, Mr. Li, I will work harder in the future, I promise!"
Jamie threw her hands up and swore. She used to believe that Colin felt different about her than other women. Now, she was beginning to doubt it.
"OK. Miss Lo, come with me."
Confused, Sophia walked over to Jamie and Colin. What did he want now?
"Mr. Li."
"Miss Lo, I need you to teach Miss Chiao a lesson. I need you to teach her how to deal with other people."
"Ummm…" Sophia was stunned. What was he getting at?
Jamie was likewise dumbfounded. Neither woman understood what Colin was getting at.
"Did or didn't Jamie said you seduced me? Well? It is true?" Colin looked directly into Sophia's eye. He nearly winked.
Sophia clinched her jaw and firmly denied it. "Of course not!"
Colin was unhappy with what he heard. Still, he continued speaking, "Sophia, I need you to return Jamie the slap she gave you some days ago. As a secretary of SL Group, you need to learn how to stand up for yourself."
...
The office was dead silent. This was the culmination of Colin's plan!
Herring couldn't help but smirk to himself. So this was his plan all along! He helped Sophia take her revenge on Jamie.
Sophia looked at Colin's steely eyes. She was taken aback.
Did he just say? That she should return the slap on Jamie?
"
Jean Wen sacrificed herself for family interests. Before her husband divorced her, she made every effort to please him.
"You are inexperienced in bed," he said coldly.
"You! Give that land to my family, or I won't agree to divorce," Jean replied furiously.
"Fine. It is exactly what I am thinking about," he sneered.
?"
Leaves of absence had originally been approved by the secretarial department. However, since the company had just been established, the secretarial department had been swamped. They had ceded the duty to HR for the time being.
"It seems that Mr. Qu has been using the leave of absence process to coerce the female staff. If they refused to do what he said, he would refuse to give them leave."
Colin smacked his desk with a heavy pen.
"Why didn't anyone say anything about this? Why didn't anyone come to me about it?" Sophia included. Did she submit to Quincy?
Wade went on, "A female employee in the design department did try to lodge a complaint. However, it seems that Quincy found out before she could. Apparently, he threatened her in private. The employee was so afraid that she took a multi-day leave before returning to work.
If it weren't for the salary and benefits here at SL Group, we think she probably would have quit."
Colin was furious. "Is there any evidence?"
"Oh yes. We have had over a dozen female employees record their testimony." Wade took out a digital recorder and gave it to Colin.
Colin's eyes were heavy and gloomy. "Call the top management in for an emergency meeting. I want them here in 20 minutes."
Yes, Mr. Li."
"You can go now. Call Sophia Lo into my office."
Wade left the office at once.
Sophia, rubbing her sore wrist, knocked on the door to Colin's office.
"Come in!"
Sophia pushed the door open and stepped in. Inside, Colin stood at the end of the room, gazing out the window at the city below.
