Chapter 511 Hazel Shows up at the Johnson Group

When those words were spoken, Hazel’s crying intensified, her innocent and youthful appearance

tugging at people’s heartstrings

Meanwhile, Chloe crossed her arms, her red lips slightly curved as she watched Hazel with a twinkle in

her eye. She truly admired women like Hazel and Ava and wondered how they could shed tears on

command. Could they have been faucets in their past lives?

Looking at Hazel, Joseph became somewhat annoyed and said, “Leslie, compensate her three months’

salary worth.”

Hazel was stunned and she said in a hushed voice, “Mr. Joseph, it’s not about the money…”

“Then why are you crying?”

They had met twice, and twice she had cried. Crying once could evoke sympathy, but crying repeatedly

would only make people annoyed. Moreover, he disliked women who wept incessantly in the

workplace.

“I…I want to stay with Fairlight, and I promise to perform well. Please don’t fire me, Mr. Joseph…”

Hazel pleaded pitifully.

“Your brother is helping Preston sue us. We have every reason to suspect that he sent you as a spy.

Other than that, your father is working with Preston to take advantage of us. From any perspective,

we’re on opposing sides. Why can’t we fire you?” Chloe stepped out from behind Joseph, her articulate

reasoning leaving no room for discussion.

Each reason she presented seemed irrefutable. Haze’s face turned white and red in turns.

‘So this scheming woman was here all along? Did she deliberately hide herself so that she could enjoy

my humiliation?!’

“Ms. Chloe, I promise that my brother and my father’s affairs won’t affect me. I won’t be influenced by

them.”

“Let correct you. It’s Mrs. Chloe, not ‘miss.”” Chloe smiled faintly, staring at Hazel as she continued,

“And about the dismissal, we’ve already provided the reasons and the compensation is adequate. We

have other matters to attend to, so let’s leave it at that for now. If you have any issues, feel free to

follow legal procedures.”

She did not want to waste any more time on this matter. The way Fairlight had handled it was

appropriate, even paying compensation before employment. It could be deemed benevolent and

generous, and Hazel could not possibly resort to legal action.

But the crux of the matter was that Hazel did not want money. She wanted an opportunity!

“Is this how you feel too, Mr. Joseph?” Hazel asked.

Joseph met her expectant gaze, but his voice remained cold as ice as he said, “I think my wife is right.”

Hazel was left speechless.

“Mrs.Chloe, this job means the world to me. If this is because of what happened yesterday, I can

apologize to you now.”

Chloe blinked and looked at Hazel innocently. “Did we meet yesterday? I’m sorry, I must have

forgotten.”

Hazel was stumped, never expecting such an answer from Chloe. She could only watch

helplessly as Chloe linked her arm with Joseph’s-the two of them looking like a perfect couple

-and stepped into the exclusive elevator, vanishing from her sight.

She stomped her foot in frustration.

‘No, I can’t just give up!’

After having breakfast at Fairlight, Chloe promptly went to her office. About an hour after she immersed

herself in her work, the front desk called and said, “Ms. Chloe, someone named Hazel Cottrell is

downstairs to see you. Shall I let her up?”

Chloe froze for a moment. “Sure, let her come up.” She was curious to see what Hazel wanted.

Hazel followed the receptionist into the office, her eyes scanning the space. When she noticed that the

office was no more than twenty square meters, a hint of disdain crossed her face.

‘Of course, she’s relying on Joseph. What’s she so proud of?’

Chloe noticed the shift in Hazel’s expression and elegantly took a sip of tea. “What can I do for you?”

Hazel said in a commanding tone as she flicked her ponytail, “Give me 100 thousand dollars and I

won’t join Fairlight.
