“A-Allysa?” Abigail mouthed as she almost couldn’t hear her own voice.

Allysa is the female employee who accompanied Gabriel to the infirmary earlier. She usually had an innocent face, given that she was the youngest in the group.

But now, her expression was different. Anger was evident in her eyes, and her aura screamed viciousness.

“What are they talking about, Allysa? You reported us for what?”

“For laziness and for showing violence so you can get whatever you want,” answered Allysa in a cold tone, her gaze unwavering. “I’m also the one who reported the plan you had in this town hall meeting. You planned to throw eggs at Damian so all of you can show how violent and rebellious you are.”

Abigail blinked twice, looking at Abigail in disbelief. “You know why I’m doing this. I’m here to protect all of you from the injustice Julian was giving us. Sure, it may not be the right way, but I thought that all people, you will be the one to understand—”

“Understand?” Allysa asked sarcasticall

    DAMIAN HAD so many questions in mind, but he didn’t know the answers to it, not even one. Feeling hopeless, he gave back the phone to Lily and returned to his seat.As he did that, his four members were just looking at him, imitating the same feeling Damian had.“Given that this happened, I’m doubtful that we can still talk to Abigail and her group about this system implementation. They were likely to face sanctions and be fired from the company, but I will ask someone to look at it later,” Damian told them.Everyone sighed in disbelief and disappointment upon hearing those words. They couldn’t believe that their hard work had gone down the drain like this.Damian went silent for a while as he pondered. Minutes later, his gaze went to Alex. “How was your collaboration with the human resources department?”“It is going smoothly, Sir,” answered Alex in a confident tone. “I already created a rough plan about the training lessons, and the human resources department approved it as we share

    MEANWHILE, after the town hall meeting, Allysa went to Julian’s office to report what happened, but before that, she needed to do something else with him.“Ah…” Allysa groaned as Julian groped one of her breasts while licking her neck. The other hand was caressing her butt, and it felt so heavenly while her back was leaning to the wall. “You are so good at this, Julian. I want more…”“Then tell me what happened earlier, hmm?” Julian muttered as he licked her ear and lightly bit her earlobe. “I already heard from Clark that you succeeded in doing the plan, but I wanted to know about Damian’s reaction.”“He is…caught off-guard—Ah!” Allysa moaned loudly when Julian’s hand went inside her skirt, traveling onto her core and playing with her c.lit. “They will hear you outside if you continue moaning like that. Do you want them to hear you?” Julian asked, and Allysa shook her head repeatedly. “Tell me everything while I’m pleasuring you in my office, knowing that someone could notice us fro

    EVERYONE WAS confused after hearing Damian’s sentence. They tried asking Damian what he could mean by that, but Damian didn’t answer their inquiries.“I want all of you to attend the town hall meeting, too,” commanded Damian in an authoritative tone. “That is all for today’s meeting. Dismissed.”Lily, Gabriel, and Alex nodded as they went outside the meeting room, leaving Mia and Damian alone. Damian was checking on some of the documents, which is why he isn’t going out yet, but it wasn’t the case for Mia.“Sir Damian, can I talk to you for a minute?” asked Mia in a low tone.“Sure.” Damian closed the folder he was reading earlier and gave all his attention to Mia. “Is there a problem?”“It is about one of the employee’s concerns…” Mia said, having a hard time internalizing her thoughts. “They were asking about the town hall meeting incident. Some were asking what actions you could take to help Abigail’s group against injustice, while others were asking if something like that happened

    “AND WHY would we listen to you?” Kayla asked, raising an eyebrow, and looking at Damian with contempt. “Who knows what kind of bullshit you were going to say?”“You will never know unless you listen,” Damian told them in an authoritative tone. “Listening to my proposal won’t hurt. You can have something to gain, yet nothing to lose.”Kayla and the other employees went silent after hearing those words. They realized that Damian was right, but their pride and gratitude toward Julian were blocking their way.However, after seconds of pondering, someone behind Kayla replied. “Sir Damian is right. Listening to his proposal won’t hurt, so I want to know what it is all about.”“Me too!”“Count me in!”In a snap, everyone wanted to listen to Damian's proposal now except for Kayla and Allysa, who remained silent while observing everything. She wasn’t even here to listen to the meeting but to take anything suspicious and report it to Julian.“What the hell, guys! Did you already forget the kin

    “I-IS IT a certificate of transfer?” Allysa, who wasn’t even included in the conversation, asked with her eyes widened. “And it also has Ma’am Gemma’s signature?”“Don’t be deceived by that signature, Allysa. Damian might have just made it by himself!” Kayla retorted in a frustrated tone. “There is no way the Director of Communications will approve of something such as employee transfers? And to think that it wasn’t just you? No way.”“Ma’am Gemma is here!” someone suddenly exclaimed, making everyone stand up as they bowed at Gemma, who just went inside the manufacturing department. “Good afternoon, Ma’am Gemma!”Gemma smiled in response. “Is Julian here?”“She is outside for a business meeting, M-Ma’am,” Kayla replied, slightly stuttering because of the intimidating presence Gemma has right now.“Alright. Can you tell him that I went here once he came back? I need to talk to him about the employee transfers to different subsidiaries,” Gemma instructed. “Tell him to go to my office im

    UPON HEARING those words, Julian immediately leaned back on the chair, crossing his arms, and his brows furrowing. “What the fuck are you talking about, man? I have been working in the Ferremento Corporation for years. Why would I commit bribery?”“Who knows? Loyalty isn’t measured by how long you are staying in the company.” Damian shrugged.Julian was annoyed at Damian. It was evident on his reddened cheeks, but he remained calm although it was challenging.“Don’t get me wrong. I’m just asking you that question because this isn’t the first time people asked my employees for a department or subsidiary transfer. No one agreed with them, not even once.” Julian smirked and placed one leg to the other this time. “What possible options do you have other than bribing them?”“News flash, I didn’t bribe your employees. I just made sure that our proposal about the transfer will cater to their needs and preferences,” answered Damian in a straightforward manner.“Cater to the employees’ needs?

    JULIAN’S EYES widened in shock after hearing Damian’s confession. However, before he could even ask Damian about it, Damian pulled Julian near him and gave him a hard punch, making Julian stumble on the floor, losing consciousness.“My hand hurts. Maybe because this bastard had a thick face,” said Damian as he massaged his hands, followed by the door opening.“Where is Julian—” Lizzy, the human resources manager, was about to ask, but stopped when she saw Julian lying on the floor. “What happened here?”“Well, he tried to attack me,” Damian lied.“Is that true? Because we have a CCTV camera there.” Lizzy pointed at the camera on the right side, which Damian was aware of. “I will look at it to see if you are lying to me.”“It was a half-truth, half-lie,” Damian honestly said, remembering how Julian gripped the collar of his shirt earlier. “But trust me, if you hear our conversation that I recorded on my phone, you will not just punch him. You will kill him.”“I don’t need to listen to

    BACK TO the Ferremento Corporation, after providing regular updates on the progress and communicating the timeline for the change, the manufacturing department successfully implemented the new system.The corporate communication’s internal department communicated about the implementation well to the employees, and Abigail’s group was now back to work. This time, the manufacturing department isn’t as toxic because Julian was fired alongside Kayla and Allysa.Now, they are in the function hall, having a ceremony because of the successful implementation. Damian was also called to give a speech, given that his team played a crucial role, not only in the operational change but in unveiling Julian’s cruelty to his employees as well.“Let us all welcome the main star of this event, Damian Giovanni Smith!” the host called, and Damian stood up before going to the stage. Everyone was clapping for him, so he felt slightly embarrassed.“Hello, everyone. Thank you, everyone, for having me here,” D

    Epilogue: The Last Retaliation

    THE hostage-taking Carter did in the warehouse spread in various news channels like wildfire. Everyone was shocked because of his sudden escape from prison, making the residents afraid for their safety, knowing that the management wasn’t doing their job properly to monitor the prisoners.With that, the warden and his apprentices, who were also under Carter’s authority, were fired from their jobs. They were replaced by a management who cared about their citizens, removing the patronage system in the prison, and bringing back justice at the same time.Due to Carter’s crimes being in high intensity, he was transferred to a high-security prison. Carter could only laugh as his mind was still in the past, thinking how rich and powerful he was, even though that wasn’t the case now.Carter had already gone insane, but it was only the beginning of his suffering.“At last, you finally arrived,” Catelyn, who was waiting in Carter’s cell, greeted. “Did you miss me?”“What are you doing here?” Cart

    Chapter 336: Let's End This Now

    THE lights were flickering, adding tension in the air, as Damian entered the warehouse alone. He doesn’t have any guns or other weapons with him, nor he didn’t call anyone like Carter instructed.Damian was on high alert as he continued walking when suddenly, two men wearing full black clothes started to approach him with their guns.‘Fuck,’ cursed Damian at the back of his mind, seeing how helpless he was right now.Especially after seeing Ava tied to the chair, his mouth gagged, while Catela is sleeping in the crib beside her.Despite the situation, he couldn’t give up. Damian needed to save himself along with Ava and Catela and end this fight with Carter so it wouldn’t repeat.The two men tied Damian’s hands and feet to the chair, but unlike Ava, they didn’t gag him.“It is so unusual to see how obedient you are. I never thought you could do it,” Carter, who appeared from the shadows, smirked upon seeing Damian being helpless. “That’s right. They will always be safe as long as you

    “That was not enough for all the bullshit you did to me before. But for now, let’s call it even," Damian said.Carson only shook his head as he wiped the blood on his lips before leaving the house. And the only thing that was running through his mind was how strong Damian’s punch was… before until now.THE NEXT morning, Carson didn’t just confess what he did to the board members, but he conducted a press conference to publicly apologize to Damian. He knew that Damian deserved to clear his name and regain his reputation, and although his public apology wasn’t enough, he still did it to show his sincerity.“Starting today, Carson Ferremento is now terminated as the CEO, and will face two years of suspension because of him ruining the Ferremento Corporation’s reputation,” Piper announced, her tone colder than usual. “The position will go back to Damian Giovanni Ferremento.”Carson smiled sadly, but he knew he needed to accept the consequences of his actions.However, since Damian had a

    “That bastard. He told you that even though you have a husband?” Carson asked, his teeth gritting.“Well, this is just an arranged marriage, and he knows it.” Ava shrugged. “To be honest, I would marry a man like him although he isn’t the richest, than stay with a puppet like you, who only knows how to follow someone else—”“Here,” Carson interjected, giving Ava the signed papers. “I will let you take Catela because I need to deal with something, but I will take her away from you once I'm done.”“Hah. As if I will let you do that.” Ava scoffed and rolled her eyes. “Thank you for this, Carson. Catela will benefit so much from this.”And as if Ava was waiting for this to happen, when she went again to their bedroom to take Catela, she already had her luggage with her and was talking to someone.“Yes, he already signed the divorce paper, and I’m all set…” Ava said, smiling from ear to ear. “Oh, your bodyguard is outside the house already? Alright. I will let him in.”Ignoring Carson, Ava

    After Carter went out of the house unnoticed, that was the only time Carson could breathe properly. He didn’t even realize he was suppressing his breath because of fear.‘Is that really the brother I used to be with ever since I was a child?’ Carson thought, his heart racing, as he leaned into a tree. ‘We are family. Why would he threaten me like that? Is the company and the organization more important to him than me?’And upon asking himself that question, Carson got his answer. Carter wouldn’t mind killing everyone who would be a hindrance to his plans, and he is not an exemption.His gaze went to the house—Something he had because of Carter. Everything he had was him, not giving Carson any chance to carve out his own identity. He was only known for his surname, and for all his careless actions when he was in teenager days.The only thing he had that wasn’t connected with Carter was Dollie, whom he took for granted, and now his family; Ava, his wife, and Catela, their child.“Ava,”

    Realizing that Damian needs him right now, Veron took his phone and called a number. It was someone he thought he would never talk with again.“Veron,” Charlie Wiles, the CEO of the Legion Mercenaries, called. “It has been a long time, huh? What do you need this time?”“I have to ask you for a favor,” Veron replied.“A favor?” Charlie raised an eyebrow. “If it is about our operations, I’m sorry, but I need to decline. You know that we can’t take clients in other countries other than Colossia, right?”“I know that. You are not taking me as a dumb person, aren’t you?” Veron shot back, his voice laced with irritation now. “I need someone I trust to do this task for me, and I’m willing to pay any amount you want for it.”“Any amount, huh? Talking to rich people is different.” Charlie chuckled on the other line, yet he became serious afterward. “But alright, deal. What is it that you want me to do?”“I want you to find Correl Ferremento’s location and kill him,” Veron commanded, his tone s

    “Carson,” Damian called as his eyes darkened in anger. “It is you, isn’t it?”“If you are asking about the new CEO of this company, yes. It’s me,” Carson answered, smirking, as he placed the documents he brought to the table. “Why? Are you surprised that a person who was once a happy-go-lucky like me would be chosen to replace you?”“Why would I be surprised if you planned everything for this to happen?” Damian shot back, the annoyance evident in his tone. “Seeing you in front of me now just strengthens my hunch. It was you who messed up with the data. How could you?”Carson’s smirk widened. He didn’t answer. Instead, he stood proudly in the middle with his arms folded.“I’m not here because of the shitty things you accuse me of, but because I have given the board of directors a proposal strategy that you can’t provide.” Carson slid the document in front of Damian. “Here. Look at this.”Damian didn’t move at first, but a few seconds later, he took the folder and looked at its contents

    “Young master,” James, whom Damian called, answered on the other line. “Young master Carson is still doing his old routine; working in his office the whole day and going home afterward.”“How certain are you?” Damian asked.James’ brows furrowed, but he still answered in a polite tone, “I’m always monitoring him, young master. I didn’t even let him out of my sight.”“I know, but something might have happened that slipped your notice,” Damian said, his tone low and serious. “The Ferremento Corporation is in chaos right now, and I’m sure Carson is involved with it. I need you to think carefully.”James obliged. The tip of his brows pressed harder on each other upon recalling the surveillance, and his lips widened as he remembered something.“There was one incident. A few days ago, Miss Ava Medivien bumped into me and caused a commotion. For a moment, I lost sight of young master Carson’s office,” confessed James. “But it was only for a few seconds.”“And that is the only amount of time t
