I was already being generous for not firing this loser on the spot, yet he still had the nerve to expect a promotion and a raise? Just because they lacked sense didn’t mean I did too.
When I confronted him, Aiden’s smile slowly disappeared and he quickly turned to Natalie with a serious look.
"Natalie, did you see that?"
“He’s blaming me for a project he couldn’t even close and now he’s harassing me by making me handle another one he can’t finish, just to stop me from achieving anything.”
“This isn’t right. He's bullying."
The moment those words left his mouth, the employees started defending Aiden.
“As a boss, you always make things hard for your employees and block their promotions and raises!”
“That’s right! Instead of following a boss like you, we should go on strike and help Director Aiden get justice!”
“Yes, that’s right. Let’s all stand together and fight back!”
In an instant, the conference room filled with voices accusing me of being a heartless boss, everyone defending Aiden.
With a cold stare, I looked at everyone; all of them were unfamiliar to me.
It was during my absence that Natalie took the chance to replace my old team and bring in new people to work on her.
