NovelOnlineChapter 1312:
The third claimed she had accepted bribes from Waldo—two properties, one in Plomond and another in Lorham,
which she needed to return to Dorsey.
“This is humiliating!” Gracie’s voice rang out, raw with fury. She didn’t bother to finish reading the rest. In one
swift motion, she ripped the document to pieces and flung the scraps straight at Dorsey's face. “You wantto
apologize? No way! It's not my fault you can’t keep your husband in check. Why blme?” Gracie was
hysterical, and her eyes were blazing as she stared at Dorsey.
“If you don’t apologize and admit your faults, then hand over your resignation.”
Dorsey's lips curled into a sneer. She had expected such a reaction from Gracie. “If the Mitchell Group doesn’t
givea satisfactory result today, the partnership ends here.”
Gracie’s cheeks burned. Every gaze in the room was fixed on her, heavy with reproach.
“Miss Wilson, you're in the wrong here,” Henley said. “If you don’t want to resign, then just apologize. Don't let
the matter jeopardize the company’s business.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe room simmered with outrage, every pair of eyes fixed on Gracie, their glares heavy with accusation, as if she
had committed an unforgivable offense.
Milton spoke up, his voice sharp with reproach. “Your actions have stained the company’s reputation. Even the
drone project is suffering. A partner calledyesterday to askabout what had happened, and | was at a
loss for words to explain things to him. A public apology from you would smooth things over for my project.”
Fury surged through Gracie, and she shot back, “This is my personal matter, not something to be dragged into a
company meeting. If | owe anyone an apology, it's Dorsey, and | should do it in private.”
In her anger, she caught sight of the meeting room camera trained on her, its red light blinking, capturing
everything.

She turned toward Ethan. “Are you recording this?”
Ethan hadn't planned to speak, but her question demanded an answer.
“Yes,” he replied. “Your public apology video will be shared internally in the company.” Though it felt severe, it
was the only way to salvage the company’s image and curb the damage.
After a pause, he continued, “You may not know this, but your actions have tanked our stock, costing us millions
daily. Business partners are calling with questions, and I'm under immense pressure. | suggest you apologize and
take stoff. You don’t need to worry about company matters for now.”
Gracie let out a bitter scoff. “How is that any different from firing me? | can’t believe even you would wantto
apologize publicly. I won't do it. This is my private life, and | refuse to let it be aired publicly.” She sat with her
arms crossed, her stance unyielding.
Henley voiced his frustration, saying, “Miss Wilson, your reckless behavior is unacceptable. Do you even grasp
the severity of this? Apologize publicly, or the company will have no choice but to let you go. It’s up to you.”
Dorsey jumped in. “Exactly. | expect you to deal with this properly. If you don’t, I'm prepared to pay the penalty
and end our partnership. | have no respect for a company that tolerates such a shameless person!”
“Just apologize already, Miss Wilson!”
“How can you be so selfish?”
“You did something shameful and still won't own up to it? You're dragging us all down. People like you should be
fired!”
“Why even bother negotiating with her? Just fire her!”
