Chapter 7: It Hits Back Fast
She remained domineering despite all the years that passed.
Kaiden smiled sinisterly internally. She was accusing that he was blocking her way despite the fact that the appropriate-sized walkway could fit the two of them well. She was clearly making things difficult for him on purpose!
“What? It’s been too long, have you gone deaf, too? Can’t you hear me? Do you know my position in the company? I can ask my team leader to fire you!”
Noticing him not moving, Jade continued mocking him in an indifferent manner.
She did not have any feelings toward her first boyfriend in university except loathing!
The conflict between the two attracted the attention of a supervisor who had been drooling over Jade’s curvaceous body earlier. Now that he finally stumbled across an opportunity to do her a favor, how could he miss it?
Straightening his heavy body, he approached them shakily and stopped beside Jade before placing his thick pig’s leg-like arm on her shoulder smoothly.
“Jade, what’s wrong?”
“Oh, Mr. Smith, is he new here? Look at him! He’s blocking my way but he wouldn’t let me pass!”
Jade stomped her feet and pouted in anger. Those who did not know better would assume that she was wronged by someone.
“Kid, what the hell is wrong with you? Don’t you know that Jade Zane is the new hotshot in the company? Also, why didn’t I see you around before? Newbies are indeed not clear of the rules here. Who hired you here? Tell his name and the two of you shall leave together!”
Mr. Smith did not put much thought into Jade’s words because the company had been hiring new staff on a frequent basis. He roared at Kaiden fiercely before turning to the woman beside him with a grin, “No one will make you angry again after this!”
“What makes you think that you can fire me?”
Kaiden was amused with the rambling couple in front of him and a hint of ridicule emerged within him.
“You don’t have the right to do that, but I can consider whether I should make you leave the company!” The smile on his lips became wider.
The established companies in the city would never be willing to hire someone who got fired from Tweet Streaming. Therefore, Mr. Smith’s life and future would reach its end if he got fired that day.
However, none of them believed Kaiden’s words.
Those spectating nearby burst into laughter after a short moment of silence at the fact that an outsider came here to fire their supervisor!
Mr. Smith froze with disbelief because of what he just heard! How could this strange kid claim to fire him?
“Jade, did you hear that? Did he say that he’s going to fire me?” Mr. Smith pointed at himself with disbelief as if he heard the funniest joke.
“Where did this idiot come from? Know your position! How dare you say that you’re going to fire me, do you know who I am?” Mr. Smith stood with arms akimbo as he stared at the man in front of him in an arrogant manner. “This is my territory, the general manager is my uncle!”
Nobody dared to oppose him in the company before!
‘Walter Smith?’
Kaiden ignored what he said and fixed his gaze on the name tag in front of his chest instead.
“I don’t care who your uncle is. You can’t ignore the company rules even if he’s the GM!”
Even a company owner had to comply with the rules and laws, not to mention a mere general manager.
Those who were working in the office area watched as the three argued. Although they did not know anything about the new employee, they were certain that the man named Kaiden would definitely get fired for what he said.
It was a well-known fact that the GM admired his nephew very much and that was the first time they saw someone opposing Mr. Smith.
“Hey, newbie! Be smart and apologize to him!”
A man in a suit could no longer keep quiet when he thought that Kaiden would be doomed if he continued acting that way.
“Be more self-aware, just pack and leave! There’s still a chance that the GM might be generous and give you some compensation.”
“He’s right…”
The others stood up immediately and attacked Kaiden with criticisms right after the man in a suit spoke up. Although all of them witnessed the whole incident, they rather flatter Mr. Smith instead of helping the righteous party.
Kaiden shook his head with disappointment. It seemed like he should correct the company’s work ethic for Alexandra!
Lazy to continue the fruitless conversation with them, he took out his phone and called the GM in front of the crowd.
“You have five minutes to appear in front of me or the consequences will be bad!”
He hung up the phone and kept it into his pocket in one go under the crowd’s shocking gaze.
He did not intend to trouble the GM like that but he had to because he was the annoying prick’s uncle. Kaiden figured that to have such a problematic nephew would mean that the GM usually helped him to do bad, too.
His series of acts shocked the spectators but not Mr. Smith.
Mr. Smith walked to a seat nearby in a casual manner before sitting down cross-legged. He stared at Kaiden as if he was an idiot. “I’ll wait!”
Time went second by second. It was five seconds to five minutes and the employees were assuming that the GM would not appear when a man ran over from the door clumsily.
He ran, seeming to be in a rush. His chest rose and fell heavily, his hair drenched with sweat was sticking to his forehead as he held two takeout bags from a high-end restaurant with him. Everyone would think that he was a takeout deliveryman if not for his face.
The GM had always been an observant, sly person. Observing the scene in front of him and linking it to his arrogant nephew, he understood what happened instantly.
His insensitive nephew must have offended his boss!
The GM fell onto his knees in front of Kaiden without uttering a word under the crowd’s gaze with a plop. He even forgot to place the takeout boxes first because he was too anxious.
