Chapter 1776
Burning Passion: Love Never Die
Blair was at a loss for words. âWesley doesnât want me to work here?
Why?*
Suddenly, a light bulb went off in her head. âDid he talk to Joslyn?
Did she tell him what I told her?â
That had to be it. There was no other explanation.
âHi, Blair. Chief brought us here to back you up. What a caring boyfriend, huh? We can help you pack,â
Talbot said in a cheerful voice.
âBoyfriend?â Blair shook her head.
âNo, no. Thank you.â Yes, she wanted to quit. But not like this. This was way too ostentatious. She
wanted her resignation to be a quiet affair.
Wesley cast a warning glance at Talbot. He looked around the company then fished out his phone and
called someone. Apparently, the call went through, because Wesley said, âThe Jameson Groupâs
building needs a fire safety check. The emergency escape route is blocked. Thereâs not an extinguisher
to be found in the translation department. And I heard that the department manager squeezed the
employees and deducted their bonuses illegallyâ¦â
Blair was shocked to hear what he was saying. She wanted to stop him but it was already too Late.
Before she could say a thing, he hung up.
Talbot and Bowman were monstrously efficient-her desk was all packed up.
By the time Filberta got there, Talbot and Bowman were carrying Blairâs belongings, about to leave. It
was a wonder to behold, seeing her rush over in heels.
When Filberta saw them, especially Wesley, her eyes Lit up. She put on a sweet smile and asked in the
softest voice, âMay I ask what youâre doing?â
Wesley cast a cold glance at her.

âBlairâs quitting. Iâm here to pick her up. Weâll need a proper severance package including back pay. If
you have a problem, ask Percy to call me. Iâm Wesley, and Iâll be waiting for him.â
âSo thatâs Wesley! The crime-buster!â The workers were all shocked.
Filbertaâs smile froze on her face. âHow does a man like him know
Blair?â she thought.
âBlair, Iâm afraid thatâs against the rules. We need to do this through proper channels. First, the
resignation process takes a month, so she can train her replacementâ¦â
Fury lived in Wesleyâs eyes. He tried to suppress his anger and said in a firm voice, âThe execs
withhold bonuses and make their employees do things outside their job descriptions. Now youâre
talking about rules?
Looks to me like the Jameson Group only cares about rules when the higher-ups benefit.â
Filberta was so embarrassed the rest of her face now matched the red of her lipstick. But then, panic
took over, and she went sheet white. This looked bad, and the fallout could be unimaginable. She
stared at
Wesleyâs rank insignia, and didnât say another word.
The office was once again deathly silent. Before long, a group of execs came over quickly, led by
Percy.
Percy flashed a broad smile when he saw Wesley.
