Chapter 1372
Jade’s expression was serious. “Ms. Thompson, let’s leave aside the fact that the Thompson Group
isn’t a dictatorship. Your authority doesn’t extend to the point of dismissing an employee arbitrarily!”
Renee stared at Jade, her fists clenched and trembling. She felt nervous about this visit, but Jacquelin
had been adamant that she, as a shareholder of the Thompson Group and the boss’ niece, had
limitless power.
What’s more, Renee was eager to kick out Lena. Plus, the fact that Lina wasn’t at thepany today
presented a rare chance.
However, she hadn’t anticipated the typically quiet Jade would be her greatest obstacle.
Jacquelin scoffed. “Ms. Neale, you’ve been with thepany for a long time. Must you really feign
oblivion? Ms. Renee is Mr. Thompson’s niece. Are you not heeding her words?”
“The Thompson Group is a modernpany, not a family workshop. No matter the situation, no
individual can make decisions on their own.” Jade nced at Jacquelin. “Besides, is this your ce to
interfere?”
Jacquelin rolled her eyes and looked at Renee for help.
“No individual can make decisions on their own?” Renee sneered. “Ms. Neale, how did Lena join the
company? Was there a proper recruitment process? Did the board of directors approve it?
“If these procedures were not followed, and she can’t achieve any results, why should the Thompson
Group keep her?”
Jade looked rmed.
“Ask her to leave,” Renee said softly. “Let HR handle the rest. Follow the proper procedures.”Books

“Follow the proper procedures?” Jade asked. “Then, ording to procedures, you’re apany
shareholder, Ms. Thompson. You participate only in profit sharing. You have no right to interfere in
terms of management!”
“What did you say?”
“I respect your status as Mr. Thompson’s niece and Ms. Pam’s cousin, and I’ve always spoken to
you politely. But if you insist on following proper procedures, then I’ll speak to you strictly ording to
the rules!”
“Jade! You…”
“Ms. Neale, have you lost your mind?” Jacquelin chimed in. “How can you speak to Ms. Renee this
way, given her status?!”
Jade smiled faintly, her gaze sharp. “Ms. Thompson, when I show respect for your status, you want to
talk about rules. Now that I’m talking about the rules, you want to oppress me with your status? The
world doesn’t work this way!”
Renee turned pale as she stared at Jade, unable to retort.

Jacquelin was all bark and no bite, turning into a mute at that critical moment.
Lena stood outside the door, hearing everything clearly. She knew exactly what Renee wanted—not
just to make her leave the Thompsons but also to kick her out of the Thompson Group.
She was just about to open the door when she felt a hand on her shoulder. Startled, she quickly turned
around and met a pair of bright eyes. Those eyes were gentle, like a cozy winter sun, instantly warming
her heart.
“You’re… Ms. Bayer?” Lena widened her eyes.
Arya made a shushing gesture, patted her shoulder, and nodded.
“Ms. Bayer, you…”
Arya smiled and coughed loudly, raising her voice. “I’m here to look at the properties!”
The VIP room instantly quieted down. In a matter of seconds, Jacquelin was the first to rush out and
immediately recognized her as the Bayer heiress!
Renee also followed her out. However, Jacquelin had already forgotten all about her, bustling around
Arya.
Jade was ustomed to Jacquelin’s behavior and sneered lightly, stepping forward to respectfully
greet Arya.
“You’re Ms. Neale of the sales department, right?” Arya was frank. “I’d like to have a look at the
properties. If there’s a suitable one for a studio, I’ll take it. Would that be alright with you?”
“Of course.” Jade nodded.
“Which salesperson can show me around?”
