“I’m not interested in your petty squabbles with your colleagues, but you did deliberately tamper with company documents. Do you realize the consequences of your actions?”
“It’s just a file, what’s the big deal?” Johanna retorted.
“Why are you making so much fuss?”
“You know, I really envy your ignorance sometimes.”
Johanna bristled at Hannah’s sarcasm. She walked over and slammed her palm against the latter’s desk.
“I’ve been tolerating you all this time, you bitch! This is my grandfather’s company! I have every right to sit in a higher position, but I listened to you when you assigned me to that pathetic and insignificant department! So I fought with an employee and deleted her files, so what? You’re blowing this way out of proportion!”
Johanna leaned over the desk and sneered, “I know that you want to fire me, you just need a good reason to do so. I’m telling you right now, that will never happen! If you fire me over such a trivial matter, I will tell Grandpa!”
“Go ahead, then,” Hannah said without batting an eye.
“I’ve reviewed the plan that you so carelessly got rid of. If we secure that contract, the project will be valued at 300 million in total.”
Hannah leaned back in her chair and smiled, “Now, if you think that your tantrum is worth 300 million dollars, then by all means, run to Grandpa and tell him everything you did.”
“You… There’s no point in trying to intimidate me!” Johanna said, but she did turn a shade paler.
“300 million? Please! Stop making things up!”
Hannah raised her eyebrows and tossed a folder at Johanna.
“That’s the contract attached to the project plan. I doubt you’d understand the details, but surely, you can recognize the pricing stipulated in those papers.”
Johanna grabbed the folder and scanned the documents. Sure enough, it said 300 million dollars. She fell into a panic.
“I… How was I supposed to know… How was I supposed to know that the project was worth 300 million? I just wanted to teach that wench a lesson! I didn’t.
“If I remember correctly, Grandpa said that if you cause any trouble in the company, you should just roll back home.” Hannah took the papers back and smiled at Johanna.

“Well? Are you going to take the initiative to tender your resignation, or will I have the honor of firing you?”
If Johanna were truly kicked out of the White family home, she would no longer hold any value to her mother.
Biting her lip, she stared at Hannah with wide, pleading eyes.
“I…
It’s all my fault. Give me another chance. Put me in another department!”
Hannah drummed her fingertips on her desk.
“How can I trust you again? You caused such a huge mess, and for what? If I let you stay, how do you expect me to justify it to the rest of the company staff?”
