Chapter 151
Love Is Fair
Chapter 151 Beaten up by a Boxing Champion When Hailey finished the meeting and came out of the office, she saw them struggling together. Instead of walking up, she just watched, afraid of getting hurt.
Chris and the others tried to step in, but Hailey glanced at them to stop them. How could a weak old man beat strong young people? Anyway, it would be Morgan who would suller, not her people. In fact, Morgan had really suffered! He had always been arrogant as the chairman. He had never expected that these people would beat him up. âArenât they afraid of being fired?â he thought, speechless. He was already on the floor, but those people were still beating him. It hurt so much that he almost had a blackout Suddenly, he heard footsteps. A pair of black high heels appeared in front of him. He slowly looked up and saw Hailey in a black business suit with a metal belt looking down at him with indifference. In spite of her indifference, he took her as a lifeline and crawled toward her. âHailey!â He screamed, thrilled. Chris and Ryker were standing behind Hailey. They couldnât help but frown in disgust at Morgan. As soon as Hailey appeared, her assistants stopped and bowed. âMs. Newman,â
Before they could explain, Hailey caught a glimpse of the five red finger marks on the executive assistantâs face and realized what was going on. Suddenly, she felt a grip on her ankle. She looked down with a frown and saw Morgan grabbing her ankle and shouting in tears, âHailey, theyâre going to kill me!â Hailey didnât move and asked coldly, âUncle Morgan, what do you mean?â âIâ¦â Morgan was tired of holding his head up to talk to Hailey. He shouted to Chris and Ryker, âCome here and help me up, you two brats!â âOh.â Chris and Ryker tried hard not to laugh and each took one of his arms and helped him up. The moment they let go, Morgan almost collapsed again. It hurt so much that he felt like he was going to fall apart. Hands on his hips, he gritted his teeth and glared at Ryker. âGet my glasses back!â As soon as he stood up, he was arrogant again. Ryker looked around and found Morganâs glasses in a corner. One of the lenses was broken into pieces. Morgan took the glasses and put them on, but one of the ear supports was cracked and the glasses were crooked. It was so funny that everyone laughed out loud. âWhat are you laughing at? Do you all want to be fired?â Morgan felt humiliated. He angrily pointed to the assistants from the presidentâs office and told his female secretary, âTake their names and take them to the personnel department to fire them now!â The secretary responded in a whisper, but the assistants didnât move. Hailey asked flatly, âUncle Morgan, why do you want to fire them?â
Morgan stared and pointed at his face, âDidnât you see? They beat me up!â Then he pointed at the assistants and yelled, âHow dare the employees beat the chairman? Shouldnât I fire them?â Hailey said, âThatâs not necessary. My assistants all make over a million dollars a year. Uncle Morgan, itâs hard for you to support yourself. You donât have to worry about my wallet. Iâm not short of money.â Morgan said in disbelief, âYou pay them over a million dollars a year? Are you out of your mind?â The assistants didnât say anything. They seemed just as indifferent as Hailey. Hailey formally introduced them to Morgan, âThe two on the left are my executive assistants, Chloe Thomas and Patrick Shaw. Chloe is a Laolunt University graduate with a Ph.D. The one you slapped is Patrick, who is in charge of the groupâs overseas affairs and has a dual masterâs degree in MPA and MBA from Stanward University. By the way, his hobby is boxing and he is a semi-pro league champion.â Morgan gulped and averted his gaze.
He decided to go to the hospital later for a full examination. He was actually beaten up by a boxing champion! He had just thought Patrick was an easy target! Then Hailey introduced her two life assistants on his right. They were both graduates of prestigious universities in this country and abroad and their resumes were quite impressive. Morgan rolled his eyes uneasily, but at this point, Hailey looked over at him and asked, âWhat about you, Uncle Morgan?â They deserved over a million dollars a year but he was just a freeloader. Why did he deserve to be chairman? Morgan felt guilty, but he suddenly realized they were getting off the point. Morgan was arrogant again. âHailey, youâre getting off the point. I donât care about their resumes. Theyâre employees of Crystaldale anyway. How could they beat me? They must be fired!â Hailey glanced at him coldly. She was going to let him off the hook, but he was relentless. âYou slapped him first, didnât you?â Morgan glared, âYes, but he shouldnât have beat me!â How shameless he was! Hailey snorted and rolled her eyes. âUncle Morgan, youâre being unreasonable. Why couldnât he fight back? He was just protecting himself.â Morgan was speechless and could only emphasize his identity, âIâm the chairnan!â âOhâ Hailey finally seemed to know what he meant, She shook her head and said, âIâm sorry to inform you that youâre no longer the chairman.â Morgan froze. âWhat does that mean?â Hailey replied flatly, âIâve been back for a while. I was afraid youâd be embarrassed so I didnât fire you when I first came back. Now that Iâve had arrangements made, you can retire and go home to rest. You must be very tired of sowing the wind for so long. Now you can go home to rest and recuperate. Youâll be attending your daughterâs wedding soon.â Then she said to Patrick, âPatrick, youâre in charge of this. Take Mr. Morgan to the personnel department later. Make sure you donât leave a trace.â âYes, Ms. Newman.â Patrick stepped forward and stood beside Morgan. âMr. Newman, please.â Morgan was stunned. âWhat do you mean?â He was going to fire the assistants, but why was he being fired now? He stared at Hailey in shock. âYouâre going to let me retire?â Hailey shook her head. âNo, only those who have contributed to Crystaldale can retire. Youâve worked for Crystaldale for so long. Have you ever contributed to it?â
Morgan was both embarrassed and angry. âYou mean I donât deserve it?â Hailey replied with a smile, âYes.â Morgan felt he was being humiliated by Hailey in front of all the executives. He roared, âHow dare you!â He even raised his arm and tried to slap Hailey, but Patrick quickly grabbed his wrist and tossed him. This time his waist was really broken.
