Chapter 188 “Try again! If you still can‘t get through, go to her house and drag her here! How dare she
skip coming to work?!” Nathaniel rebuked, but he felt he had not fully expressed his anger. After
pondering for a moment, he said, “Forget it. I‘ll do it myself!” Then he drove back to the company and
headed straight to the HR Department as soon as he arrived. “Get me Olivia Hart‘s information. She
left her position without getting prior approval from higher management. Tell the Legal Department to
devise the appropriate punishment and compensation for this case.”
One of the executives from the HR Department looked at Nathaniel and said, “Mr. Hall, Olivia submitted
her resignation letter more than a month ago. According to the Labor Law, she can leave her job
position 30 days after submitting her resignation letter regardless of your approval.”
“What kind of stupid law is that? Why haven‘t I heard of it before?” Nathaniel was astonished as this
was not something he had expected. He was under the impression that Olivia would remain an
employee of the company if he did not sign her resignation letter. Upon hearing what the HR executive
said, Nathaniel felt fury burning within him. “That is what the Labor Law states.” The executive‘s voice
diminished. No matter how furious Nathaniel was, that was the law set by the government. “Then... she
can just leave as she wishes? Is there nothing the company can do?” Nathaniel could not believe that
there was nothing his company could do to a mere employee. “She hasn‘t taken her pay and bonus
from last month,” the executive browsed through the documents and said.
“Deduct it!” Nathaniel ordered without any hesitation.
“Due to the unique nature of her work before this, we can require her to sign a non–compete clause.” This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Nathaniel‘s eyes lit up at the sound of that. “That sounds good! Get that done and stop her from
working in other companies in this industry. If she disobeys, file a lawsuit against her to claim for the
company‘s losses!”
He could guess Olivia insisted on leaving because she wanted to join Lily‘s team. He could not let
Olivia have her way. Fine, Nathaniel would let her go if she wanted to leave, but she should not hope to
get a job at another company in this industry within a year.
He would sue her for breaching the contract if she dared to. Lily could pay the compensation for Olivia
by then. Nathaniel felt much better at thinking he still had something to threaten them.
It was never good to flirt with a man who had just tasted the forbidden fruit. Lily took a shower, changed
into a blouse with a high neck, and wrapped a scarf around her neck. Finally, she managed to cover all
the love bites.
In a hurry, she rushed to the lab. She told Olivia to report there today and get familiar with the work
environment first. Unfortunately, she was still late to meet Olivia. When she arrived at
the door breathlessly, Olivia was already there, chatting away with Jenny.
Lily was unsure how long Olivia had been here, but looking at the two chatting happily, it seemed they
had known each other for years. Jenny turned around upon hearing some movements. Smiling, she
said, “Wow! Our workaholic is actually late today.”
