Chapter 316


    Sarah said, “Yeah, I know, you’re Mrs. nagan”


    She sounded cool and polite, no buttering up, it was like she didn’t give a hoot about the fancydy in


    front of her. At the Red Jack Club, she’d seen plenty of high and mighty women. Some did demand


    respect, but this woman, who casually ordered her to fire people, was not one of them.


    Leah stared at Sarah, studying her face. Then she got up, looking a tad miffed, as if her dignity had


    been bruised. Leah hadn’t expected a manager to defy her after knowing her identity.


    “Ms. Sarah.” she said, ‘my daughter is the future Mrs. Lindberg. Are you sure you want to cross me?”


    Sarah shrugged inwardly, even feeling a tad disdainful. So her daughter wasn’t Mrs. Lindberg yet. She


    dared to use that as a threat? Quick as a sh, she replied. “Mrs. nagan, what are you talking


    about? Is not firing Allison the same as crossing you? That’s a bit of a stretch, don’t


    you think?”


    Sarah had been working at Red Jack Club for a decade; this wasn’t her first rodeo with threats. If she


    caved every time someone tried to bully her, she wouldn’t have kept her job as manager.


    Usually smooth as silk, Sarah raised an eyebrow slightly, “Mrs. nagan, I have a meeting shortly. If


    you’ve got nothing else, I’ll be on my way.”


    Felt free to take a seat in her office.


    Sarah turned around, picked up a file from her desk, and was ready to head out when Leah stormed


    out first, looking rather peeved.


    Sarah stood still, crossing her arms and raising an eyebrow slightly. What on earth had Allison done to


    tick off Mrs. nagan?


    What a pain.


    Leah was seething. She stormed out and saw a woman in a red suit, roughly 30, standing at the door:


    The woman smiled, “Mrs. nagan, nice to meet you. I’m Serena, the deputy manager here.”


    Leah eyed Serena, “So you’re a manager too.”


    Serena stepped closer to Leah. In her high heels, she towered half a head taller than Leah. She bent


    down slightly, ‘Mrs. nagan, if there’s anything that Sarah didn’t help you with, may I assist? Sarah


    can be high-handed sometimes. She’s got backers and doesn’t respect anyone’s dignity at the Red


    Jack Club.”


    Leah had just been snubbed in Sarahis office. Serena, however, was offering her the respect she


    wanted and she smiled. This woman knew the score.


    In Serena’s office.


    Leah put it straight, ‘Find a reason, fire Allison.”


    She was determined to make it impossible for Allison to get a job in Northfield, not even as a waitress.


    She couldn’t go back to school, which meant no degree.


    She loathed Allison and Grace. Ever since that incident, her rtionship with Christopher had be


    more distant. Her daughter was no match for Allison in every aspect. Her husband missed that


    annoying Grace every day. Well, she would make Grace’s daughter unable to find a decent job!


    Serena didn’t bother asking for details, she just said, “Mrs. nagan, it’ll take some time. I need to n


    it out. After all, we can’t just fire staff for no reason. People will think we’re bullying them at Red Jack


    Club.”


    “But.” Serena continued, “I will make sure you’re satisfied.”


    “Good, I care about the oue, not the process.” Leah took out some money from her bag and put it


    on the table. Serenaughed and said, “There’s no need for that, Mrs. nagan. I just want to be


    friends. Money isn’t the point. I don’t really get along with Sarah, so it’s kind of fate that I can help you

    today.”


    “Thank you, Ms. Serena, I’m d to have a friend like you. As long as you solve this problem for me, I’ll


    Serena smiled as she saw Leah off, then sat on the sofa, sipping her coffee. She needed to find a


    reason. A reason to fire this woman named Allison.
