Chapter 381

Over at the gate, Jeremy had just lifted the lift lever for a car and was looking up into the sky.

He could have sat in the office, enjoying the air conditioning, drinking coffee, and doing some easy tasks.

Now, he had to do what any old man could do.

The contrast upset him.

A ringing phone interrupted Jeremy’s deep thought.

“Hello, Jeremy. Have the higher–ups… reinstated your position?”

The call got through, and Lucy’s hurried voice spoke.

Not yet.”

Jeremy shook his head slightly.

“What? No?

“Didn’t Sean mean to forgive you yesterday?

“Why haven’t you been reinstated yet?

“Could we be wrong? Sean doesn’t have that kind of power, does he?”

Lucy frowned suddenly and grumbled angrily.

“I’m not sure…”

Jeremy shook his head slightly, feeling helpless.

“Hmph! We must be wrong.

“You didn’t guard the gates because of him. Did you offend “I had such high hopes for Sean.

“But come to think of it. How could a cripple like Sean be close to people in the government?”

The more Lucy talked, the angrier she became.

“Jeremy Holden!”

Just then, there was suddenly a cry from nearby.

“Uh, I’m here…”

anyone else?

Jeremy quickly put down his phone. As the guard guarding the gate, he was not allowed to talk on his phone during office hours.

“Mr. Luke has said that you’d be reinstated with immediate effect.

“You have done a good job at the grass–roots level these days. I will consider your promotion according to your performance.

“You can go back to your old job now. I’ll put someone else on duty over here.”

With that said, the middle–aged man left with his hands behind his back.

“Thank you. Thank you…”

Jeremy’s head buzzed. Then his arm stiffened a little as he picked up the phone again.

No one knew how shocked he was.

He could demote Jeremy to the lowest with only one word!

However, he could reinstate Jeremy to his original position with another word too.

Who was to say Sean did not have strong connections in the government?

“Mom, I… I got my old job back!

“Sean… No… Brother Sean’s a big shot!”

Jeremy was so excited that he started babbling.
