Trash (2)
I growled, my face full of anger as i stood up and continued.
"And you certainly have no right to address my bro like that too."
I was walking closer to her as I spoke. The pressure kept getting stronger as I got closer.
"You deem us unimportant to inform the reception about our arrival?"
"You regard us as trash to be left waiting without any word for half an hour?"
"You gossip about us loudly amongst your colleague and give degrading comments as you lead us to this office?"
"You disdain us so much that you can't even serve us proper tea and snacks?"
"You sure are brave, to belittle the person who is your boss's boss"
I said, as I reached right in front of her.
"Did you really think I would let all that you did, slide? I was merely seeing how far you'd actually go."
By now, Jean was truly afraid and was on the floor, her legs having lost all its strength long ago. Her blouse was stuck to her body as it was drenched in sweat, her eyes wide open in absolute fear as she looked up at me unable to look away.
"When was the last time you actually performed your duties and responsibilities properly? How many times has the CEO been affected by your incompetence and lack of professionalism?"
I continue.
I reached out my hand towards Ethan not breaking eye contact with Jean. He placed the termination letter in my hand and I squatted down, to look at her in the eye. Without a word, I stuck it on her face. Her sweat allowed the paper to stick for a while before her shaking hands took it off to read it.
She looked at the content in shock, her mouth open. Before she could say anything, I got up and pointed towards the door.
"You have 10 minutes to pack up and leave before I call security. If you're not done by then, I'll have them drag you out.
She didn't dare say anything else. All she wanted to do now was run. Run as fast as she can away from this guy She cursed herself mentally. She had such an easy job. And she fuck off.
If she had known this boy had the capabilities to actually fire her, she would have not acted the way that she did. No matter how angry and frustrated she was right now, she couldn't do anything. There is no medicine for regret. She had dug the hole herself and jumped straight in it.
The termination letter was effective immediately. Normally, she would get some months notice before her services were terminated. However, the letter had clearly shown her misdemeanor, which gave Company SI the right to terminate her without notice and without having to pay.
So now, she was without a job, no reference and no money. Just like that, her prospects to work at another company as a secretary was sealed shut. Which sane company would hire her when her record showed clearly her incompetence?
What was she going to do?
She sniffed, tears spilling out of her eyes.
"You have one minute left".
Said the emotionless Xander not pitying her at all".
She didn't want to talk to anyone at that point and so, ignored her colleagues who is now former colleagues as she ran to the lift.
Everyone stared at the quickly retreating back of Jean and the room suddenly broke out in big talk.
"What-what just happened?"
Shouted one worker in shock.
"Didn't you see Jean got fired?"
"What did she do? I mean, she was useless but the CEO always forgave her no matter what she did"
Another said.
"Serves her right,"
Another scoffed
"Getting rid of bad rubbish!"
As the door was slightly open, all of these words were clearly heard by Ethan and us. His face got flushed as he thought about it. Even his people out there knew about Jean yet said nothing to him? He was beginning to feel more and more useless.
"Don't get drag in self pity. The company still need you to keep going. Lest us brother clear the trash for you"
Said Alex and pat Ethan on the back.
"Hey bro how was I"?
"Hum not bad. Seem like you are not so useless."
"Hehe. I don't know why but I like to take down this kind of people. Why did you never take me with you"
"..."
"You seem to forget that you want to be "free".
"You know what Xander I don't want to talk to you anymore".
I was there watching my brother's antic. And without knowing a small smile appear on my face. But nobody is paying attention to me so they didn't see the change in my usually expressionless face.
Alex cricked his neck, smoothed his suit down and brushed off some imaginary lint on both of his sleeves. He look towards me and we saw a slow smile that was forming on his face and noted the fact that he had not retracted that chilling aura yet. It wasn't as lethal as before, but it was certainly still there.
"Let's continue the cleansing"
He said as he walked towards the door.
Ethan saw the smile and said to me.
"Why does it seem like he is enjoying this?"
I turned to look at him, an eyebrow raised as I answered:
"That's because HE IS enjoying this."
