“Are you done talking?”
“Ulric! For Rosalind, are you really going to abandon your own mother?! I think you are truly bewitched by her!”
He didn’t respond, just stood up and opened the office door. “Please.”
“…”
Sirena’s expression at this moment was as colorful as it could be! A mix of embarrassment, awkwardness, and anger all at once.
But Ulric remained indifferent, not even willing to spare her another glance.
After Sirena left in her high heels, Ulric glanced at the resignation letter on the desk, then walked back and called the HR department.
“Process Lawyer Reynolds’ resignation. Yes, she resigned voluntarily.”
…
The arrival of his father was something Ulric had anticipated, so when he returned to his office after a meeting and saw Caesar, he wasn’t surprised.
On his phone, he was halfway through typing a message to Rosalind on WeChat.
[Don’t argue with your mother. I’ll go see her once things are settled here.]
Ulric knew that his mother must have said some unpleasant things when she went to see Rosalind’s mother, and Rosalind wouldn’t be able to handle it alone.
“What now, you don’t even see me as your father?” Caesar was a bit annoyed at being ignored by his son.
“If you’re here because of Sirena, I have nothing to say. She submitted her resignation herself.” It wasn’t like he forced her to resign.
“Do you really not understand why she resigned?!”
This time back in the country, Caesar realized that his son had changed dramatically! He was no longer the person who was solely focused on work, now everything revolved around that Rosalind.
The departure of Sirena from W Group would have some impact, and he didn’t believe his son was unaware of this!
“I told you, I didn’t force her.”
“But you announced in the company that you were suspending her work because of that Rosalind. How is that different from forcing her to leave?” Caesar raised his hand to rub his temples, not wanting to argue with his son at this moment because his health wasn’t great and he still had to worry about his wife. “Ulric, haven’t I told you? I don’t want to force you to completely cut ties with Rosalind right now, but you need to know what your priorities are! It’s foolish to let a woman affect your career.”
Ulric knew that Sirena’s move was a strategic retreat to make Rosalind look bad in front of the Walters family.
But unfortunately… both his parents fell for it.
“You say that because you don’t understand Rosalind. She will definitely be a talent in the investment industry in the future.”
“That’s because you support her strongly. Otherwise, with her qualifications, she wouldn’t even be eligible to work at W Group.” Caesar waved his hand and sighed deeply. “You can’t agree to Sirena’s resignation. Your mother doesn’t know yet, but if she finds out, she’ll definitely get emotional again! Ulric, I don’t want to bypass you and go directly to Rosalind about this matter, do you understand?”
The threat in this sentence was quite clear.
Ulric knew his father wasn’t joking. If he intervened against Rosalind, things would get more complicated.
“I’ll handle it appropriately.”
“It better be that way! Also, you must promise me that Rosalind will never enter the core operations of W Group! You can give her money, give her property, but don’t gamble the entire W Group for some emotional attachment.”
