    Chapter 500 Who’s Going to Fire Her?


    Caroline removed her sunsses and red at Neil. I’m doing this so I don’t cause trouble for you, you


    know.”


    “Ah? Why do you say that? Neil asked, smiling.


    Caroline continued. “You’re going to hold a press conference, right? It will affect you if we don’t align in


    our statements, won’t it?”


    Neil gently touched Caroline’s still–swollen cheek, his eyes filled with sympathy. “Don’t worry about me.


    I


    will stick to the facts when I exin everything


    Caroline asked, “Aren’t you concerned that your grandfather will me you?”


    “I’ll stand by what I’ve said. Everyone must take responsibility for their actions.” Nell pulled back his


    arm,


    and his expression gradually turned cold..


    Caroline was about to speak when Nell’s phone rang.


    He nced at Caroline when he noticed Grayson was calling. “Speak of the devil.”


    Caroline leaned against the chair. “Answer the call.”


    Neil nodded and epted it.


    “Nell, have you checked the Inte? You should know what to say in the press conference this


    afternoon, right?” Grayson’s stern voice came through the phone.


    Neil replied nonchntly, “I know what to say.”


    Grayson sensed something was amiss in Neil’s tone. “How do you n to exin it?”


    “The surveince footage is clear. If we lie, it will only worsen ourpany’s situation,” Neil stated.


    Grayson’s anger grew. “There is no sound in the footage. How can you be sure of the truth?”


    “What do you believe is the truth, Grandpa?” Neil responded.


    Grayson argued, “That woman spoke harshly to Danielial What’s wrong with teaching her a lesson?”


    “I feel that Danie was intimidating despite being in the wrong. Grandpa, there should be limits to


    protecting someone.”


    “Do you understand the consequences of telling the truth to those journalists?”

    “Yes, but one must admit wrongdoing when it urs.”


    “If you do that, believe me, I’ll remove you from your position! You don’t get to decide for the Xander


    Group yet!”


    “Do as you wish.”


    Neil hung up and looked at Caroline. “I’ll help you get justice in this matter, Carol.”


    Carol handed her phone to Neil. “There’s a voice recording of the incident.”


    Neil was stunned before he chuckled and said, “So, you’ve had a hidden agenda all along. No wonder


    your


    attitude toward this incident is lukewarm.”


    Caroline smirked. “One can only silence Danie with real evidence.”


    Meanwhile, Alex and MK’s employees were in a project meeting they had partnered on.


    After the meeting concluded, Alex took the printed meeting minutes prepared by the secretary as he


    prepared to meet Evan at the hospital.

    He entered the elevator, and it opened partially during its descent.


    A sarcastic female voice could be heard.


    “Hey, Paige. Don’t bothering to work if you don’t have the right attitude. Why hold the position of


    head of the fashion design department if you’re not going to do anything?”


    “Do you have anyints about being the deputy head? Paige retorted.


    La Crum replied, “It’s still better than you dozing off at work every day. You’re lucky Mr. Jordan isn’t


    here, or he would definitely fire you.”


    Alex frowned and stepped out into the elevator lobby after overhearing the conversation. He was


    infuriated when he saw a woman berating Paige arrogantly.


    “Why are you scolding her? And who’s going to fire her?” Alex asked La.


    When Paige heard his voice, she turned to look at him, her expression turning unpleasant upon seeing


    him.


    La’s expression changed when she saw Alex. Soon after, she smiled and said, “Mr. Price…”


    Alex looked at her sharply. ‘Instead ofining here, you should sketch some designs to fill your


    empty brain.”
