My Four Miraculous Treasures novel Chapter 227

Willow wasn’t in her office. Upon her desk lay an envelope. Tyson brought this back to Jasper.

It was a letter of resignation. Frowning, Jasper read the reason she’d given:

‘Sorry, I’ve found someplace better, so I’m leaving the Hughes Corporation.’

These words had been typed out and printed… but they were undersigned by Willow herself!

That was her own signature, no mistake!

Jasper’s expression became grim.

Willow actually had the gall to quit?! How did she plan to pay the two-hundred-dollar penalty?

He called HR. The Director of Human Resources informed him, “Willow resigned of her own volition, and paid her penalty on the spot—the full total of two hundred thousand dollars. According to her, her new employer provided the necessary funds to secure her services immediately.”

As per Frank’s instructions, Jasper was absolutely not to know that Willow had actually been fired. In case he asked, the HR Director was to come up with a convincing story about Willow resigning voluntarily.

After wracking her brain the whole morning, she’d settled on this as the most plausible story.

Having heard this report straight from the mouth of the HR Director herself, Jasper had now become the epicenter of a brewing thunderstorm.

Without another word, he hung up.

Willow returned to her apartment, with Rachel alongside her.

Lara told her about how earlier, she’d only stepped out for a minute, when little Hailey came chasing after her for some milk, and nearly got hit by a car when she stepped out onto the road.
