Chapter 1001:

After all, no one wanted to risk losing such a lucrative job.

Each person hoped they wouldn’t fall under Harlee’s scrutiny, especially those aware they had been hired through networking.

Harlee allowed skilled workers to stay on, regardless of how they were recruited, as long as they avoided major mistakes. This gave them job security until retirement.

However, those who lacked expertise and often went unnoticed were particularly nervous, dreading the prospect of losing their position.

When updates came in from each division, everyone flocked to the official website, only to discover Harlee was targeting high-ranking individuals in each department, leaving the lower-level employees unaffected.

A collective sigh of relief followed.

As the list of names circulated, employees in each department watched eagerly as events unfolded. These were individuals with connections who often mistreated their subordinates or took credit for others’ work. They were the source of much frustration.

Consequently, most employees felt no sympathy for them.

While some celebrated, others were anxious.

Dina, one of the board members, had been pacing the entire morning. The list included everyone she had brought into the company. Some were skilled, while others were merely filling space.

Dina knew Harlee was after her. Once the dust settled with her subordinates, Dina feared she would be the next target. With that thought, she gritted her teeth and decided to confront Harlee head-on.

Dina picked up the phone, dialed an unfamiliar number, and waited for a response.

After a few rings, the phone was picked up lazily.

Before Dina could speak, a woman’s voice came through.

“Ms. Stones, have you made your decision?”

Dina glanced at the list on her screen, narrowing her eyes, and said, “Miss Norris, I’m ready to collaborate with you. I can provide any intel on Harlee and help you deal with her.”

“What do you want in return?” As long as it didn’t involve Rhys, Anika was clear-headed.

Dina replied, “I don’t need anything specific. Miss Norris, we both want to take down Harlee. She’s our common enemy.”

Anika exchanged a look with Eugenia before asking, “Ms. Stones, are you in trouble?”

Suppressing her frustration, Dina answered, “Truthfully, Harlee plans to cut staff, and all of my people are on that list.”

Dina understood that honesty was key to making the partnership work smoothly.

Anika raised an eyebrow, surprised by Harlee’s ruthless approach.

“Don’t worry, Ms. Stones. Since we are allies now, I’ll assist you.”

Dina’s primary concern was dealing with Harlee.

Anika’s unexpected offer made her smile.

“Thank you, Miss Norris.”

After hanging up, Dina’s long-standing frustration eased.

Her office had been crowded with people before the list was even made public. She had to put in considerable effort to convince them to leave one by one.
