NovelEnglishChapter 216
As Logan's nwas suddenly called, he immediately turned pale.
There was no way Sean had reported his absence. He barely showed up ten days a month.
Not only was Logan unable to hold anyone accountable, but he also had to help cover things up. After all,
Andrew was the boss.
"Mr. Chapman, it seems that despite being the head of the HR department, you aren't too familiar with the
company's leave policies. If that's the case, perhaps we should find someone more competent for the job?"
Angela arched a brow at Logan, her eyes carrying a sharp warning.
Logan was immediately shocked and becanxious. With Angela raging at the moment, he certainly couldn't
risk being the scapegoat and losing his job.
"Ms. Graham, as far as | know, Mr. Sean didn't submit a leave request." Logan lowered his head, avoiding
Andrew's gaze as he spoke cautiously.
Unbelievable. Just this morning, he had been so sure of himself, confident that Angela was no threat, and taken
her lightly. Yet, within less than an hour, he was already bowing his head and humbling himself.
"Maybe he forgot." Andrew was still trying to cover for Sean. "Since it was a sudden illness, it's understandable if
he forgot to—"

playing on her lips. Her clear, piercing gaze locked onto the older man before her.
Andrew's face stiffened once again.
How did Angela even know about that?
Angela turned and asked the crowd coldly, "Who is Sean's second-in-command?"
A hand shot up, almost like a young student was seeking permission to speak in class. "Ms. Graham, that would
be me."
"What's your name, and how many years have you worked at the company?" Angela asked.
The man answered honestly, "My nis Wilbert Compton. I've been with the company for four years and have
always been in the operations and logistics department. Ms. Graham, we already tried to dispatch workers to fix
the elevators, but..."
"Go on!" Angela urged. "Tell the truth."
Wilbert hesitated for a moment
before finally speaking up, his years of frustration spilling out in an instant. The elevators broke down last night. |
had already arranged for repairs, but Mr. Sean stopped them. He said there was no rush and that he'd handle it
himself once he was back."
"He won't be coming back," Angela declared instantly, her voice steady and unwavering. "Starting today, you are
the new head of the operations and logistics department."
Wilbert looked at Angela in shock, unable to believe his ears. As their eyes met, he could almost see the flames
of determination burning in hers.
"Do you have the confidence to do the job?" Angela questioned in a deep voice.
Wilbert's heart pounded in his chest. Four years. Four years of being overlooked, overworked, and pushed to the
edge. He had been on the verge of quitting, ready to walk away from it all. And now, finally, someone saw and
understood him.
"Yes, | can do it!" Wilbert's voice trembled with emotion.
No more putting up with Sean. No more taking the fall for someone else's mistakes.
"Angela, don't you think you're being a bit too hasty?" Andrew said, his tone laced with displeasure.
Angela turned to look at him, her expression cold and indifferent. She spoke slowly, emphasizing every word. "In
a professional setting, addressas Ms. Graham."
Andrew nearly choked in rage. This damned woman!
Had she already forgotten how, back when she was just a nobody trailing behind
her useless father, she used to greet him with such enthusiasm?
"Mr. Graham, please return to your seat." After putting him back in his place again; Angela spoke with a smile
that didn't quite reach

the company, so there's no need for
you to worry too much."
Andrew was utterly speechless.
His face turned an ugly shade of green. He glared at Angela, seething with fury,
and then he suddenly collapsed backward, falling straight to the ground.
"Mr. Graham!"
"Call an ambulance!"
Panic erupted in the room.
