Chapter 228 The team manager was confused, but she quickly went to grab a form after noticing that Jonathan was still silent about the matter. “Here.” Michelle was shocked! What was going on? Was Uncle Yates not going to say something? “Didn’t you want to resign?” Cynthia was always direct. Michelle pursed her lips and reluctantly took the form, feeling extremely resentful. Her gaze could almost burn a hole through Cynthia. With everyone watching, she could not back out, especially with Jonathan present. Then, Michelle took the pen from the side and wrote slowly. Deep inside, she desperately hoped Jonathan would speak up, reprimand this investment advisor, and keep her here. She wanted him to tell everyone that she was his daughter, but Jonathan did not say a word even after she finished filling out the form. “Being foolish isn’t the problem. The problem is being foolish, yet not giving any effort and not wanting to learn,” Cynthia said harshly while she looked at the resignation form. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
Michelle was on the verge of tears. She had never felt so humiliated before! Who did this woman think she was? Cynthia did not give her a moment of regret. Instead, she took Michelle’s resignation form and went to have Kendrick sign it, providing Michelle with a termination letter. “Your salary will be deposited into your account later,” Cynthia handed her the termination letter. “You can leave now.” Michelle was furious and felt deeply humiliated. She knew that everyone watching her was probably mocking her. With these thoughts in mind, her nails unconsciously dug into the palm of her hand, Jonathan watched it all, cleared his throat, saying he had something to attend to and left. He did not
want Michelle to embarrass him later by calling him ‘dad’ in front of everyone. He did not want others to misunderstand, nor did he want Cynthia to misunderstand Once he left, the surroundings immediately became lively. “I was so scared. I really thought Chairman Yates was her father.” ‘Exactly.” “Michelle, even after leaving the Yates Group, you should strive on your own. In every company, it’s your abilities that matter. No company operates on charity.” “Do I need you to lecture me on how I should be?” Michelle’s temper flared up again. As long as Jonathan was not around, she would always be pretentious. “Even if I don’t work, my dad will still give me an allowance.” “Is Chairman Yates really your dad?” Char2 “No way. If he were her dad, why would he let her leave the company like that? Her dad must be busy, and the Chairman is acting on his behalf.” “The Chairman’s last name is Yates, not Shayne.” “But what if she takes her mother’s last name?” “I remember Michelle’s mom’s last name is Quinn, right?” Amidst all the gossip, Michelle became even more unhappy, and she now detested Cynthia That woman was truly annoying! She looked at the crowd of people discussing and said, “Chairman Yates isn’t my biological father, but he’s my stepfather. As long as I want to work at the Yates Group, he can arrange a job for me anytime. “Even if I don’t do anything and just clock in every day, I can still get a higher salary than all of you!” Michelle blurted out. She wanted these people to know that her status was different from theirs. Cynthia had planned to leave. With the matter resolved, she had no reason to stay. However, Michelle’s words made her stop in her
tracks. Neither she nor Shirley had ever flaunted their status as part of the Yates family as this person did, Some people just never learn. “If I’m not mistaken, your mom and Chairman Yates aren’t married yet, right? Without a marriage certificate, how can you say you’re his stepdaughter? Cynthia turned around and walked over, maintaining her cold demeanor.
