Chapter 363 You Can Leave Now

He said he doesn’t want to see me anymore.

Elspeth felt her heart twisting, as though someone was grabbing it.

Despite that, she still lifted her chin defiantly and solemnly said, “I don’t care what you think of me, but I hope you’ll

consider saving my company. If my company fails, yours will be next. I’m sure you understand that, Mr. Winthrop.”

She was right. The Winthrop Group and the Azure Corporation were the most powerful companies in Damoria. It

could even be said that the Azure Corporation had greater potential than the others.

Once the Azure Corporation was gone for good, the other one would be targeted by their opponents as well.

“I know.” Callum stared fixedly at Elspeth, his emotions undulating in his heart. She knows she can’t persuade me to

save her company by using our relationship, and now she starts talking business. That’s typical of her.

“Since you’ve said so, I’ll stop bothering you.” A hint of disappointment flashed across Elspeth’s eyes.

She didn’t have a way to persuade Callum, for the man was obstinate. Regardless of what she said, he just wouldn’t

give her a hand.

It seemed that he was determined to let the Azure Corporation fail.

Having nothing else to say, Elspeth turned around and left, looking desolate.

Unbeknownst to her, Callum was watching her leave with a gaze that was as dark as ink.

Now that Callum had turned her down, Elspeth decided to return to her company. Harper had been waiting for her.

When he saw her dejected expression, he knew what happened.

“He’s not willing to help me, Harper.”

Elspeth seemed to have used up all her energy to utter those words, as though she would pass away the next

moment.

Harper was heartbroken to see her like this, but he had no idea what he could say to console her.

“It’s fine. We’ll get through this.”

He emphasized the word we.

Elspeth knew he was only trying to console her, so she forced a smile. “I’m alright. Don’t worry. I’ll try to come up

with a solution.”

Since then, Elspeth spent most of the time at the company, but the situation was only getting worse by the day.

Around 30 percent of the employees had quit their jobs, and 30 percent of the remaining ones were still

complaining.

Most of them were no longer in the mood to work. The company’s prospects were bleak.

A managers’ meeting was held on this day. Elspeth was seated at the front, looking exhausted.

When the others saw her like this, they didn’t dare say anything.

Only one man named Denton Page, who was one of the managers, stared at Elspeth and barked, “Miss Lynwood,

you told us you had a way to save the company the other day. How’s the progress so far?”

Elspeth wanted to explain something, but she realized she couldn’t come up with an excuse at all.

Given her situation, it was practically impossible for her to save the company.

“I’m sorry. The solution I’d mentioned didn’t work.”

When they heard that, those who had remained silent earlier started complaining.

“Huh? Didn’t you say you could solve the crisis?”

“Yeah. Why did you keep hiding it from us? You should’ve told us earlier!”

“If Mr. Page never asked you, we wouldn’t have found out that the company is going bankrupt soon.”

“Miss Lynwood, please tell us the truth. Are we going out of business? If that’s the case, we have to get prepared

sooner.”

Their words hurt Elspeth deeply.

She secretly balled up her fists, but she still pretended to be calm and collected.

“We’re not running out of business. I’ll come up with another solution.”

“Tell us about your plan, then!”

Elspeth lowered her gaze. “I don’t have a good plan for now.”

An enraged Denton landed his palm on the table and stood up straight.

“What the f*ck are you talking about if you don’t have a plan?”

It was inappropriate that he used foul language during such a meeting.

Harper glowered at him. “Mind your language, Denton.”

“I can say whatever I like. What the f*ck does it have anything to do with you?” Denton sneered.

“What are you trying to do, Denton?”

When Harper saw how provocative the man was, he felt uneasy.

“That has nothing to do with you either. I just want to know if this company is going to survive. If not, I’ll pack up

and leave this sh*thole.”

Harper snapped, “Don’t forget we’re at work now. Will you please show some respect?”

“Let him speak, Harper.”

Elspeth stopped Harper from blowing his top.

“I have nothing else to say. I just want to know if the company is closing down soon.”

Denton wanted nothing but the truth, for he could no longer stand the fear of losing his job at any moment.

Elspeth didn’t want to hide it from him, so she nodded gently. “Yes, the company is closing down soon. If there’s

nothing else, you can leave now.”

Although her voice was soft, she sounded composed and authoritative.

Some of them intended to leave, but when they saw Elspeth’s reaction, they had no idea what to do.

Denton was the first to resign. “Alright. Thank you for being straightforward, Miss Lynwood. All of us have mouths to

feed, so we can’t waste any more time here. Since you’ve said so, I’ll take my leave. Farewell.”

With that, he turned around and left.

Elspeth swept a glance over the rest. “If any one of you wants to leave, you can do so now.”

A person asked hesitantly, “What about this month’s salary?”

They were still trying to get the last bit out of the company.

They had been working for over 20 days this month. If they left without getting their salaries, they would suffer a

loss.

“Go to the finance department and get your salaries,” Elspeth replied frankly. She wouldn’t allow herself to owe

anyone.

When some of them heard that, they set their minds at ease and apologized.

“Miss Lynwood, we really want to stay, but you understand that we have bills to pay. If we stay here any longer, we

might—”

The person didn’t finish his words, for he realized that Harper seemed tempted to flare up.

“It’s fine. I respect your decision.”

Just then, a person in the corner stood up.

“I’m not leaving, Elspeth.”

Elspeth remembered her. Whenever she arrived at the company in the past, this woman named Angela Erickson

would have some small talk with her.

She hadn’t seen Angela for quite a while, so she didn’t know the latter had become a manager.

“I’ll never leave the company. I’ve been working here for three years. If I leave now, I’ll be no different from a jerk,”

Angela said determinedly.

Although she was showing her loyalty to the company, she was also implying that the others were terrible people.

Those who wanted to leave turned gloomy in an instant.

Nevertheless, since they were indeed deserting the company when it was in a crisis, they were not in any place to

refute her.

“It’s fine.” When Elspeth saw that Angela was red with rage, she felt a sense of warmth rising within her. She was

relieved to know someone was on her side.

After a pause, she uttered coldly, “However, we won’t welcome those people back to the company ever again!”
