Chapter 125
Hymes hung up the phone, looking at Leo with a cold gaze, and asked, “What happened?”
“Mr. Giles, you were in a meeting just now, so I didn’t have time to tell you. Domino Media was in trouble.”
“What does that have to do with Gigi?” Hymes asked.
Leo shook his head.
Leo didn’t know what was happening inside Domino Media yet.
Hymes‘ expression turned solemn as he realized that Giselle’s unusual behavior today must be related to her company.
“Cancel the remaining schedule,” Hymes ordered.
Hymes quickly handed all the documents and data to Leo and went downstairs.
The driver had been playing games in the driver’s seat. He suddenly heard the back door open, and Kevin got in with a fierce look.
“Send me home.”
“Oh, alright! Mr. Giles, it’s rare for you to go home at the time of this,” The driver quickly said.
Hymes‘ expression was gloomy, and he didn’t speak.
Anyone could tell that Hymes was in a bad mood, and it was best not to upset him further.
Everyone at the company had a complex expression when Giselle left, but no one dared to speak up for her at this time.
They didn’t know the specifics of the situation and could only watch Giselle leave with a sense of reluctance and worry.
Back home, Giselle lay on the bed and didn’t want to think about anything.
After working for so long, it was rare for her not to have to think about work. She just pretended she was on vacation.
She thought Hymes would only return after work and suddenly heard the sound of the lock downstairs..
Giselle thought she had heard wrong, but then she heard the familiar and steady footsteps coming toward the second floor.
Giselle sat up when she saw Hymes walking up the stairs.
Hymes was still wearing his suit and had an elegant Windsor knot tie around his neck, looking calm and understated.
He had a cold and serious expression, which softened when he saw Giselle.
Hymes kneeled on one knee on the bed and leaned towards Giselle. “What happened?”
When Giselle was alone, she could tolerate all her emotions, but when she saw Hymes, all the grievances rushed to her heart, and tears filled her eyes.
Giselle pursed her lips, threw herself into Hymes‘ arms, tightly wrapped her arms around his neck, and said with a pitiful tone, “I have been suspended.”
Hymes hugged her tightly and asked in a cold tone, “Who did this? What’s going on?”
Giselle told Hymes about everything that had happened at the company today and felt more and more aggrieved. “Mr. Rogers must know that I didn’t do this, and I have no reason to do it, but he still chooses to let me take the blame….
“I’ve been working hard for the company for so long, and this is what I get in the end!” Giselle said with a bitter smile.
Giselle knew that Kevin had always favored Jenny because of Jenny’s wealthy family and the benefits she could bring him.
If Pino Capital hadn’t agreed to cooperate with Domino Media through Giselle, Kevin might have fired her because of Jenny’s dissatisfaction long ago.
This feeling of being used and abandoned was extremely unpleasant. Giselle felt a surge of resentment in her chest, causing her eyes
to turn red.
“Is it because I didn’t do well enough?” Giselle asked with a hint of doubt.
“It’s not because you didn’t do well. It’s because of your boss…” Hymes paused for a moment and gave a comment, “He is an idiot.”
Chapter 175
Giselle couldn’t help but laugh through her tears. “If he heard you say that, he would be furious.”
Hymes held Giselle’s cheeks in his hand and wiped away the tears. He kissed her gently and sighed, “You’ve been wronged.”
“It’s not a big deal. But with your comfort, I…”
Giselle hadn’t cried for a long time, and she didn’t know that her tears almost broke Hymes‘ heart.
At the same time, an almost uncontrollable rage erupted within him.
He thought to himself, “It seems that Domino Media doesn’t need to exist anymore…”
But just as he had this thought, he heard Giselle say, “Actually, I have feelings for the company after working there for so long. I hope Mr. Rogers can really investigate it seriously and know that this matter has nothing to do with me.”
“Do you still want to work there?”
“Yeah, I don’t want to give up like this. It’s not my fault. Why should I just quit?”
Hymes nodded. “Then don’t give up. I’ll help you find a way to solve this problem.”
“Great! It’s not me who did it anyway. Jenny’s accusations have no substantial evidence…”
With Hymes‘ comfort, Giselle had calmed down.
She leaned against him and fell asleep.
When she woke up, Hymes had already prepared dinner for her.
Giselle smiled and tiptoed to kiss him on the cheek. “It’s great to have you here. Thank you, my honey.”
“Babe, you’re already calling me so affectionately, how can I not be better to you?”
Hymes murmured in her ear, but then remembered they hadn’t eaten dinner yet….
With Hymes‘ company, the impact of being suspended from work was not as great as Giselle had imagined. Giselle even ignored the comforting text message sent by her colleagues and was too lazy to reply.
The next day.
Without Giselle, Jenny was especially happy. She took the initiative to take over Giselle’s work, wanting to solve the company’s
troubles.
Jenny quickly made a statement in the name of the company and put all the blame on the vice director of the management department, Giselle. Jenny claimed that Giselle had made this decision without the company’s knowledge.
She also claimed that the company had suspended Giselle after investigating the situation thoroughly.
Because they had promised to pay the rest of the salary to Internet celebrities on time, the matter gradually subsided.
Jenny was satisfied with her achievement and became even more proud. She was delighted that she had successfully forced Giselle out of the company.
She didn’t believe that Giselle would have the ability to come back. From now on, Mickey would only belong to her.
As for the issue of investing in the company, when Kevin asked her about it, she pretended to be vague, “I have already talked to my parents. We can negotiate cooperation after they return from their business trip.”
As for when they would return, Jenny would just play it by ear. She also held high hopes that the company would get better.
As long as the Clarks family’s business returned to normal, they wouldn’t lack the money to invest in the company.
Jenny held onto this hopeful expectation and became even prouder, thinking that she had vented her anger and gotten rid of
Giselle!
But at this moment, Kevin received a call and then, an employee from Pino Capital came to Domino Media.
“We are here on our boss‘ orders to discuss the acquisition of Domino Media.”
