?Chapter 1214:


    “I’m still a major shareholder of Wall Group,” she said, her voice quiet but unyielding.


    The color drained from every face.


    What little boldness they’d clung to vanished without a trace.


    “Sadie!” Tina’s voice rang out,ced with both surprise and relief. She hurried to Sadie’s side, her tone brimming with frustration. “You wouldn’t believe what they’ve been saying. It’s appalling.”


    Sadie didn’t respond right away. She let her gaze drift across the room. Not a single person dared to move.


    “Everyone is expected to take responsibility for their work,” she said atst. Her voice was low, each word clear and deliberate. “If your current role is too much for you, submit your resignation to HR. Wall Group doesn’t run short on people willing to work.”


    No one spoke. No one even breathed.


    The defiance the employees had worn so easily just moments ago had crumbled.


    And their empty words now felt like a bad joke—one none of them dared to repeat.


    None of the employees dared to utter another word of defiance.


    Their positions came with generous sries and the prestige of working on Wall Group’s executive floor.


    Losing that? Finding something equal—or even close—would be nearly impossible.


    The mere thought of unemployment made their knees weak.


    “Ms. Hudson, we were wrong. We’re truly sorry.”


    “We were out of line—please forgive us.”


    “Please, give us another chance!”


    Their apologies trembled in the air, voices shaking with panic.

    Sadie didn’t even nce at them.


    She turned and opened her office door.


    Tina shot the group a re and waved them off.


    “Alright, enough. Get back to work. And listen—if I catch any of you cking off again, it won’t be a warning next time.”


    The group bowed repeatedly, murmuring thank-yous as they scattered.


    As the door creaked open, a wave of dust hit Sadie in the face. She doubled over, coughing hard.


    “Ahem… ahem… ahem…” Her brows drew tightly together.


    “Are you okay, Sadie?” Tina rushed over and gently patted her back. She looked around and felt her blood boil again.


    The desk hadn’t been wiped. The floor hadn’t been swept. Everything was nketed in neglect.
