Chapter 44 You're Fired

• "H-How'd you know?" Alexis froze, and murder welled in his eyes. He didn't do anything to Natalie because he needed the passcode from her. Now that she was useless and a threat, he needed to get rid of her. She knows too much, and she has to die.
• "Think about it long and hard in prison. Alexis, you're fired. I've given all the evidence to the police, and we'll hold a press conference in half an hour to tell the public about your termination." Natalie looked ahead coldly. "I'll personally make the announcement and sue you for all the damage you've done to the company. You have half an hour. I'd start to run if I were you." She hung up and called another top manager, asking him to announce the press conference.
• Indeed, Hartwell Corporation held a press conference half an hour later. Natalie announced Alexis' termination and claimed that he sold the company's core technology. She had given the documents to the police as well, and the whole industry was shaken to hear the news. JC Technology immediately announced that they had developed their core technology themselves, denying that they bought it from Alexis.
