Chapter 76 You’ve Been Fired
“I think you’re asking for trouble!” Lucas frowned and threw a punch at Billy.
Bang!
Before his fist could even extend halfway, he was sent flying and lay on the ground for a while before getting up.
“Lucas!” Rita exclaimed, rushing over to help him up.
“Well done! You dare to hit me. You’re really something! I promise you, If I won’t let you kneel down, I’ll name after you!” Lucas’s eyes were blazing with anger. After speaking, he took out his phone and dialed a number.
“Billy, why don’t we leave?” Harleen looked at Billy with concern.
“Let’s go somewhere else to see if there are any suitable clothes,” she suggested.
“Harleen, it’s okay. If we don’t teach these people a lesson now, they’ll continue to bully innocent people in the future.” Billy gave her an assuring look.
“Just wait a moment. I’m going to call my friend!” After hanging up, he dialed Derek’s number on his phone.
“Mr Gardner!” Derek answered after one ring.
“There are three things you need to do right away,” Billy said sternly,
“First, there is a Chanel boutique in Metropolis Commercial Building. Tell their company that the store manager surnamed Perry doesn’t need to come into work starting tomorrow.”
“Second, there’s a so-called B-list celebrity named Rita Richardson who will be blacklisted starting tomorrow!”
“Third, notify the head of the Ozinthe Meyer family that I’ll give him half an hour to come to the Chanel counter at Metropolis Commercial Building to pick up his son. If he doesn’t show up in time, he’ll bear all consequences.”
After speaking, Billy hung up the phone.
“You’re crazy!” Rita sneered when she heard Billy on the phone. “You want to blacklist me?”
“I’m warning you. If you don’t kneel down and apologize today, you won’t be able to stay in Ozin anymore!”
“That’s right!” The manager also snorted coldly. “You’re just pretending on the phone. I bet your call didn’t even go through!”
“It’s laughable that you think I won’t have to come into work tomorrow.”Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
“You’ll soon find out whether my call went through or not.” Billy gave her a glance.
“Just wait and see what happens if you dare mess with me!” Lucas gnashed after finishing the call.
A few days ago, the top three families in Ozin were overthrown overnight, and the Meyer family had now been listed among the new four families in this city. Therefore, Lucas looked downed upon Billy, a nobody in his eyes. Then, Lucas looked at Harleen.
“Are you Harleen Knight? Who’s he?” asked Lucas. He felt a bit familiar with Harleen at first glance before, and now he remembered it.
Harleen was known as the most stunning and beautiful woman.
Harleen glanced at Lucas but did not answer his words.
“Harleen, why don’t you take a look at some of the other styles and see if there’s anything else you like?” Billy suggested.
“It’s too expensive, let’s go.” Harleen shook her head.
“Don’t worry about the cost, money is not an issue as long as you like it.” Billy smiled and turned to Sophia, the waitress. “Can you recommend a few more styles for us?”
“Sure… sure thing…” Sophia was still recovering from shock.
“What ‘sure thing’?” The manager shouted angrily. “I’m officially telling you now that you’re fired! Get out of here!”
Sophia was slightly stunned. She then took a deep breath, took off her work badge and placed it on the counter before turning to face him.
“If I’m fired then I’m fired. With a store manager like you, I was planning on quitting in a few days anyway!”
“Sucking up to those above while bullying those below, flattering others while being arrogant towards weaker ones. I really don’t know how our company chose someone like you as store manager!” After speaking she turned towards Billy and Harleen and bowed slightly. “I am very sorry, but unfortunately I cannot serve you anymore due to my situation.”
“It should be us apologizing to you for causing trouble.” Said Harleen with some guilt in her voice.
“No worries, this job wasn’t meant for me anyways.” Replied Sophia with a faint smile before turning around and walking towards the door.
“Wait! Don’t be in a hurry to leave. Wait a little longer, I promise you won’t lose your job!” said Billy.
“Thank you, sir, I…” Sophia responded.
Just then, two sets of footsteps sounded and a middle-aged man in a suit hurriedly ran over followed by an employee.
“Mr Olson?” Seeing the middle-aged man, all the waiters were surprised at once. This man was the leader of Chanel in the East District who rarely showed up on normal days.
“Mr Olson, why are you here?” The manager hurriedly went up to greet him.
But as soon as she arrived in front of him, the middle-aged man slapped her down on the ground.
“You’re fired! Get out of here right now!”
“Mr Olson… why? Is there some kind of misunderstanding?” The manager got up from the ground and asked fearfully.
“Get lost!” The middle-aged man kicked her out with one foot directly afterward
He had just been upstairs talking to the manager of the Metropolis Commercial Building when he received a call from his immediate superior, who proceeded to chew him out without any explanation. He was warned that if he couldn’t get Billy’s forgiveness for whatever had happened, his position as head of the East District would be replaced. He later asked his superior about Billy’s identity but was not given a direct answer. Instead, he was told that if this matter wasn’t handled properly, not only would he lose his job but also possibly even his life. So he rushed down in a panic.
“Is this how your Chanel store managers behave?” Billy spoke coldly.
“I… I didn’t manage my subordinates well enough. Please… please forgive me, sir.” Fred Olson responded with another bow.
“Enough!” Billy waved him off and turned to Sophia instead.
“This server has performed well, I believe making her store manager will cause your store’s performance to skyrocket.”
“Hmm?” Fred paused for a moment before quickly responding, “Thank you for your kindly suggestion!”
Then he turned to Sophia and announced, “From today on, you are the manager of this store”
“What?!” Sophia exclaimed in shock.
