Sierra Sinclair’s face turned ashen; she couldn’t understand any of it.
Why would that boss protect both Sharon Lancaster and Nina Sinclair? Could it be that Nina had secretly gotten involved with Vincent Lancaster and he was helping her behind the scenes?
Aside from this, Sierra couldn’t think of any other reason.
She took out her phone and immediately dialed Vincent Lancaster’s number, only to discover the line was busy—she didn’t know who he was speaking with.
Sierra grew even more agitated. After dialing several times, she finally got through to Vincent.
"Hello, Vincent, I was just at Jenna’s..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Vincent cut her off, saying, "Sierra, starting tomorrow, you don’t need to go to work at Zenith anymore. From now on, you can stay home and be a full-time wife."
Sierra stood there, stiff, utterly disbelieving what she had just heard.
Vincent was also a bit irritable. Just earlier, Julian Lancaster’s assistant, Felix Ford, had suddenly called him, saying the company couldn’t have unqualified personnel onboard.
He had even specifically mentioned Sierra as an example.
Being the most renowned company in Veridia, Zenith Group had high hiring standards, and someone like Sierra really wasn’t qualified to be there; she was only allowed to be his assistant because of his special approval.
He never expected such a minor issue would alarm Julian Lancaster, and in the end, he had no choice but to call Sierra and tell her about it.
He even gently consoled Sierra, telling her not to work so hard in the future.
But these words sounded different in Sierra’s ears.
Once the seed of doubt is planted, it begins to grow. Just a moment ago, she suspected Vincent was helping Nina Sinclair, and now his actions confirmed her suspicions.
Nina Sinclair was indeed involved with Vincent in private; otherwise, why would he be helping her !
"The company is very busy, I’m hanging up now."
Without waiting for Sierra to question him, Vincent hung up out of fear of her losing her temper, leaving her no chance to pursue the matter further.
Sierra’s face twisted with resentment.
At this moment, Phoebe Linden and Lillian Tupper also received calls from their supervisor.
"You’ve seriously violated the company’s discipline, and now you’ve been fired. As for the penalty for breaking the contract, HR will discuss it with you."
The two of them were stunned in place. They had been fired?
"Supervisor, what exactly did we violate?"
They desperately pleaded, even willing to have their bonuses deducted, but the supervisor at Zenith was unrelenting, showing no favor, and told them to handle their resignation procedures immediately the next day. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ NovᴇlFɪre.ɴet
Phoebe and Lillian’s legs went weak, their hearts withering, feeling as if the sky had fallen.
They had just racked up a large bill on their credit cards, and now, after being fired, how would they ever pay it off?
"Assistant Sinclair, please speak on our behalf with Manager Lancaster. We have no idea what we did wrong, and now the company wants to fire us."
Phoebe and Lillian immediately rushed to Sierra, hoping to hold onto her for help.
Sierra herself had been dismissed under the guise of becoming a full-time wife, courtesy of Vincent. She was struggling to protect herself, let alone help the two of them.
Her face whitened, rigid, growing more and more suspicious that the person assisting Nina was indeed Vincent.
Why would he help Nina?
The more Sierra thought about it, the more pained she felt, her fingers digging tightly into her palm. Unfortunately, she still hadn’t obtained that video of Nina; otherwise, she would definitely show Vincent how Nina was a fallen woman!
Luckily, she was about to get engaged to Vincent soon.
Everything would be settled then, and she wouldn’t have to worry about Nina taking Vincent away.
