    Furious, Josie mmed her water bottle onto the table. “That’s not true! Ms. Shenton isn’t that kind of


    person.”


    “What’s the point if you believe her?” The male employee continued indignantly. “Can you make money


    with that? You, a secretary, can’t understand how much the sales department has suffered. They’ve


    labeled us as Ms. Shenton’sckeys, but we have to respond politely. What do you even know?”


    Josie red at and rebuked him loudly, “Can’t you endure it? Do you know how they nder and curse


    Ms. Shenton every day?”


    “I don’t know, I can’t take it anymore!” The male employee ran his hands through his hair. “Ms. Shenton


    must be guilty. I think thepany will go bankrupt sooner orter.”


    “If you can’t handle it, leave!” Josie exploded. “You don’t deserve Ms. Shenton’s kindness. She’s been


    buying you nice foodtely, and you’re ungrateful!”


    “What did you say?”


    “I said you’re ungrateful!” Unable to contain her emotions, Josie stepped forward and pped the man.


    “You bitch! How dare you p me?” The male employee was furious and attempted to p Josie.


    The other employees were frightened and rushed to intervene.


    Chaos erupted in the conference room.


    Caroline and Kenny heard themotion as they passed by the conference room. They exchanged


    nces and hurriedly entered the room.


    Kenny opened the door and was met with a chaotic scene that angered him. “It’s lunch break. Why


    didn’t you rest and instead got into a fight?”


    One of the employees approached Kenny and exined the situation.


    Upon hearing the exnation, Kenny’s expression soured. He turned to Caroline with indignation. “You


    decide what to do with this employee.”


    Caroline nodded and entered the conference room. After studying her employees for a moment, she


    spoke calmly. “I understand your concerns. You might think I’m avolding rumors and not addressing the


    company’s situation. Some of you believe thepany is going bankrupt. I won’t try to convince you


    otherwise. If you want to leave, go ahead. I won’t stop you.

    “I’m leaving!” The male employee angrily removed his work ID and tossed it on the floor, “I won’t stay in


    apany with no future!”


    “I’m leaving too.”


    “I’m sorry, Ms. Shenton. I wish you sess.”


    Caroline watched her departing employees silently. She counted as they left, stopping at 17.


    Turning to the remaining 50 or so employees, Caroline asked, “Is anyone else absent?”


    Josie wiped her tears. “Yes, Ms. Shenton. There are about ten more.”


    “Go check if they want to stay or leave.”


    Sobbing, Josie nodded. “Alright.”


    After Josie left, Caroline asked, “What about the rest of you?”


    “We’ll stay with you, Ms. Shenton!” a female employee dered.


    “Yes, you’ve always been good to us. We won’t abandon you in tough times.


    “Don’t worry, Ms. Shenton. We’remitted, no matter what happens.”


    With bitterness in her voice, Caroline replied, “Alright, I won’t betray your trust.”


    After resolving the situation, Caroline and Kenny returned to Caroline’s office.


    Kenny paced back and forth, still fuming. “I’m furious!”


    Sipping on the coconut juice Kenny had brought, Caroline exined calmly, “It’s natural. That’s how


    things


    go.”


    “Doesn’t matter! We should’ve never spent so much on their food!” Kenny barked.


    Caroline corrected him, “Don’t generalize. You should refer to the ones who left.”


    “You’re right.” Kenny settled on the sofa. “What a bunch of ungrateful jerks!” Caroline looked at him and


    asked, “Do you share the same doubts as them?”
