Hiraya returned to the company only to be greeted with infuriating news—Julio had neither resumed his reassigned role nor accepted the company's generous offer.
Worse still, he had blatantly ignored the instruction to vacate his former office.
"Has any action been taken to address this gross misconduct?"
Hiraya asked coolly, seated behind the executive desk of her newly renovated and fortified chairman's office. Her fingers moved with mechanical precision over a stack of files, her expression unreadable.
"Yes, ma'am," Nathaniel responded crisply, standing attentively at her side. "I've ordered his office to be cleared out and all his belongings confiscated, pending further directives."
"Destroy them."
"Yes ma'am."
"What's next?" she prompted, her voice sharp and expectant.
"I've instructed HR to retract his reassignment letter and prepare a termination notice. He'll receive it the moment he sets foot on company property."
