Perhaps it was due to a sleepless night. maybe because more than nine hours had passed and Ellis should have woken up by now, but he still hadn’t receive
In the past, he never had to wait for a response. Ellis would bombard him with a slew of WhatsApp messages and texts. If he ignored her, she’d find other ways to get
Easton’s words hit like tons of bricks, leaving Jackson stunned and trembling, “Mr. Hudson, the things were cleared out last week, they’re probably at the landhill by now”
“My office stuff might be lost, but if Ellis’s things can’t be recovered, write your resignation. You’ll get your severance”
Having Jackson as his assistant for years, Easton valued his competence and careful nature; he hadn’t made any major mistakes until now. Although this wasn’t a major error, considering Easton’s best long bout of insomnia, it felt monumental.
Faced with unexpected unemployment, Jackson felt his legs weaken, and swear bearded on his forehead. He wiped his brow frantically, near tears, “Mr. Hudson, please wait, I’ll get the cleaning supervisor and we’ll go look for it right away”

At noon, Lois sent her several documents via the company’s internal communication software, all concerning Nexus Group.
Thinking of what Morty had said last night, her temples began to throb. Couldn’t annoying and petty people just vanish!
Reluctant to liaise with Morty, she went straight into Lois’s office and said. “Madam Lois, not to keep it from you, but Morty told me last night that his company and ours are collaborating, and he has specifically requested that I liaise with him. However, I must tell you something.
Before she could continue, Morty had already spoken up first. Lois motioned for Ellis to go on.
“I have a bad relationship with him, he’s intentionally making things difficult for me. Ellis paused thoughtfully for a few seconds. “I’m afraid that because of me, the collaboration might not go smoothly, potentially causing losses for the company
“Isn’t he Mr. Hudson’s childhood friend? Lois asked, puzzled.
Normally, even if one didn’t get along with a partner’s friends or relatives, they would maintain a facade of civility. It was rare for such conflicts to escalate to one party actively causing difficulties for the other, making Ellis’s candid admission quite unexpected.
