Countdown to My Divorce (Rachel and William) novel Chapter 497

“We admit we were wrong! Didn’t we already say we’d write a self–reflection? We’ll finish it and read it out loud in front of everyone tomorrow, is that okay?”

“Wasn’t that already the plan? What else is there to discuss?” Rachel replied blandly.

“N–No objections, that’s good enough.”

“Yes, yes, we have no objections at all.”

Everyone knew the stakes. Compared to getting fired or blacklisted across the entire industry, writing a self -reflection was a minor punishment,

Just then, the shareholders walked out.

“They can’t just write self–reflections anymore. They must be fired immediately!”

“That’s right. They knowingly broke the rules and made such serious mistakes at work. They need to be dismissed! Have a formal announcement issued. From now on, people like them will never be employed by

our company.”

The employees went weak in the knees from fear.

“Please, Mr. Summers, we admit we were wrong. We’re begging you, please don’t take our jobs away!”

“We’re willing to accept anything, even a salary deduction!”

Gary Summers made his stance clear. “There’s no room for negotiation. For something like this to happen within the company, we’d face utter humiliation if word got out. And as for Ms. Yvette, the shareholders will convene to discuss how to deal with her for her involvement and covering up the situation.”

Yvette had just walked out and overheard that sentence. Her legs nearly gave out, and she instinctively reached for the wall for support.

Seeing Yvette, Gary stepped forward.

“Ms. Yvette Lloyd. After much discussion, the shareholders have decided to suspend you until the investigations are complete. We ask for your cooperation.”

Yvette quickly defended herself.

“It’s not like that. I was framed! Those people made me do it. They said they needed the money and asked me to give them special treatment out of friendship. I only agreed because we’re coworkers, Mr. Summers. Please investigate this thoroughly!”

Rachel stood off to the side with her arms crossed.

“Whether you were framed or not, the first thing you should be doing is cooperating with the investigation, not dodging responsibility. You’re the deputy CEO. If you act like this, what kind of example are you setting for others? If something happens, should everyone just shirk their duties?”

Gary fully agreed with Rachel.

“Ms. Rachel is absolutely right. Ms. Yvette, you’re Mr. J’s daughter. Even royalty must face consequences for their crimes, let alone you. You’ve been with this company for years, and you should know better.”

Yvette panicked. She was completely at a loss. She approached Rachel, her voice shaking and tinged with

bitterness.

“Rachel, do you really have to go this far? Are you really going to push me over the edge like this?”
