"I was mocked because of you, I do not wish to leave employees who have no discipline to work for me." I tried to avoid staring at her. I could feel her eyes probing at me and sincerely I wonder why she was staring at me so voraciously.
"We are sorry." Diane went on her knees which infuriated me even more. Why did she had to do that. I waved at Jonas and he came closer.
"Fire them all except Eloise, I won't be needing them afterall." I whispered in Jonas ears and he nodded.
I grabbed my phone on my desk and jerked from the chair instantly. Before I got to the door Jonas had announced their punishment. Suddenly I felt a tiny hand wrapped around my ankle hindering me from walking out of the office.
I thought it'd be Diane, but when I looked down it was no other than Eloise. "Why was she kneeling that way?" I feigned ignorance for a moment but then-
"I was the cause of it all. Please punish just me."
Was this woman crazy? After everything that was done to her by the bastard she was still pleading? Does she want him to have a good life with his mistress?
I don't know if it was because she is kind-hearted or just foolish, but the rage I was feeling inside was enormous. I tried to control it all but like impulse, I forced my legs out of her gripped and she fell to the ground. I was shocked for a moment and wanted to go down and helped her out, but then her husband came running to her and helped her up.
What was he pretending to be?
"Get your hands off her this instant Peter." Emily shrieked at him and then nudge him to the ground. She helped her friend up and Diane stood still with eyes fuming with anger that could rip Peter apart.
"This is exactly why I don't want you all in this place. You will ruin my business." My eyes narrowed deeper and I wobbled my head disgusted by their petty arguments.
"It wouldn't end with just getting us fired, I believe a strict rule should be placed in this company, no one is allowed to have an affair with a staff if they are already married to another staff or in a public relationship. That way such embarrassing things won't happen again." Emily protested.
It made me scoffed but she was right, if such a rule existed then what had happened earlier would never have happened.
"I think we should announce this, it's a good idea." Jonas whispered in my ears.
"If such a rule would take effect from now, then it means Diane and Peter will have to get fired?" I asked Emily.
"Yes CEO."
My gaze drifted towards Eloise and she was glaring at Emily. I wonder why she didn't wanted peter and Diane gone. What was she thinking. I won't spare them, if she keeps getting involved in such a disaster, she might end up losing my child. Wait, did I just accepted the child as mine? This woman is getting deeper into my head.
