    George let out a triumphantugh. “Just wait and see. Once I be a member of the board of directors, everyone will look up to me and worship the ground I walk on!”


    Jerry, taken aback, asked, “George, are you really going to be one of the directors?”


    “Almost,” George replied with a self-satisfied grin. “It’s in the works. If everything goes ording to n, I’ll be promoted in just a few months!”<fnd080> Read full story at f?ndnovel</fnd080>


    “That’s amazing!” Jerry eximed, giving him a thumbs-up. “Just remember your buddy when you’re a director!”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    George nodded confidently. “Absolutely! Don’t worry, I’ll have your back.”


    Just then, a loud bang interrupted their conversation as the door to George’s office was kicked open with force.


    “Who the hell dares to kick my door…”


    George was taken aback by the sudden noise. He was about to shout when he noticed the board of directors standing in the doorway, bowing respectfully to a middle-aged man in a suit. He blinked in disbelief, swallowing his words.


    Zeke red at George with intensity and demanded, “Are you George Harris?”


    In a daze, George nodded slowly. “Yes, that’s me.”


    Without any warning, Zeke advanced and pped him hard across the face!


    “How dare you reject Miss Wilson’s application, you fool!”


    Holding his throbbing face, George was stunned. “Who the hell are you? How dare you hit me!”


    “How dare I hit you?! I’ll finish you right now!” Zeke growled, kicking George to the ground and stomping on his head. “Do you even realize that Master Wade instructed me to ensure Miss Wilson passes her interview? And yet, you ruined it, you absolute fool! If I don’t make you pay for this today, I’ll write my name, Zeke White, backward!”


    At the mention of ‘Zeke White’, George trembled in shock and fear. He knew he had gotten himself into serious trouble.


    He was Zeke White, the owner of Spikeworth and the head of the White family!


    The entire Spikeworth was under the White family’s control, and he had just offended the ultimate boss! What was happening?!


    “Mr… Mr. White, I had no idea there was such an arrangement! If I had known, I wouldn’t have dared to disobey you, not even if someone threatened me with a gun. Please, I beg you to forgive me!”


    George pleaded desperately as Zeke continued to stand over him like a defeated dog.


    Meanwhile, Jerry and Joanne were paralyzed with fear, not daring to make a sound.


    Wade, as in Charlie Wade? Him again?!


    How on earth did Charlie know Zeke, a sessful businessman?! He was just a deadbeat freeloader!


    What they didn’t realize was that the powerful man before them was Charlie’s loyal ally, who had worked tirelessly to gain Charlie’s favor.


    “George Harris, from this moment on, you’re fired! ording to your contract, you’vemitted a major liability mistake, and you mustpensate thepany with 5 million dors!”


    George was utterly shocked, as if struck by lightning!


    5 million dors! He wouldn’t be worth that much even if he sold himself!


    He fell to his knees and pleaded desperately, “Please, Mr. White, give me another chance! I’ll apologize to ire Wilson immediately! Please! Don’t fire me!”


    Zeke scoffed. “An apology? Who do you think you are?”


    Zeke kicked George aside and dered, “Spread the word. George Harris has offended Master Wade, and as a result, the White family is cklisting him across all industries. This worthless waste will end up on the streets and live a miserable life!”<h3 ss="has-text-align-center" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
