Chapter 504

After Sharon finished speaking, she cautiously watched Tyler’s reaction. Everyone in the industry said he had a strange temper. He might be perfectly fine with someone one second, and the next, he’d flip without warning. No one could ever guess what he was really thinking.

Tyler’s expression remained cold. His unreadable eyes locked onto Sharon.

“Are you done?”

Sharon froze before numbly nodding. “Yes, I’m done.”

“Then go upstairs and prepare your resignation letter. I’ll speak to Mr. Summers about it later.”

With a blank expression, Tyler turned to leave.

Sharon froze in disbelief, panic flashing in her eyes. She only snapped out of it when she heard the sound of his leather shoes clacking away.

“Mr. Hunt, why? I was just thinking about your best interests! I didn’t want to see you get fooled by some manipulative woman!”

Tyler rubbed his brows, his patience clearly wearing thin. His jaws were clenched when he spoke, and his voice made Sharon’s scalp tingle.

“It’s simple. I won’t allow anyone to speak ill of her in front of me. You just happened to cross the line.”

With that, he walked out of Lloyd Enterprise, leaving Sharon standing there in stunned silence. She had a blank look on her face.

‘How did this happen?’

She had thought long and hard about every word she said. Why would Tyler react like this? Even if he didn’t thank her, firing her seemed excessive.

Very soon, Gary called her on the phone. Her heart sank, and she broke out in a cold sweat. With trembling hands, she picked up the call.

“H–Hello, Mr. Summers.”

“Sharon, are you out of your mind?! You’ve been with the company for years, and this is the kind of low-IQ mistake you make? Do you even realize who you messed with? Mr. Hunt didn’t show up today for no reason. He was clearly there to support Rachel, and you had the guts to pull that stunt in front of him!”

Sharon tried to defend herself. “Mr. Summers, I didn’t-”

“Save it! Do you think you’re smarter than everyone else? That you saw through Rachel while the rest of us are blind? Do you think Mr. Hunt can’t tell if she has an agenda? And you, of all people, figured it all out?”

“I…” Sharon was completely speechless after that.

Gary had no interest in wasting any more time on an ordinary employee like her.

“That’s enough. Just keep that mouth of yours in check from now on. You’ve worked here for a few years, so here’s what we’ll do. You’ll write the resignation letter yourself, and we’ll give you one extra month’s pay.”

The call ended with a cold beep.

News of Sharon’s resignation spread quickly throughout the company.

“Did you hear? Rachel asked Sharon to escort Mr. Hunt out, and she ended up coming back with a resignation notice. What the heck happened?”

“I heard from the front desk downstairs that Sharon tried to act smart and told Mr. Hunt that Rachel was manipulative and trying to scam him for money.”

“Pfft! Is Sharon stupid? Saying something like that basically implies Mr. Hunt is a clueless sugar daddy, rich and dumb, just here to get swindled by Rachel.”

“Exactly! She’s worked under Ms. Yvette for years. I thought she’d learned something, but her IQ just took a nosedive.”

“Okay, okay, enough gossip. Ms. Rachel’s coming out!”
