Chapter 45 - Got rid of pest

Immediately the door to the meeting room was closed, the staff who are still finding it hard to believe their ears, began bombarding Mike with questions like, 

"What is going on?"

"Why are we fired?"

"Is this some kind of a joke?" 

"We demand an explanation right now!" the same sharp tongue lady from the last time yelled.

Mike look relaxed and nonchalant, he allow them the chance to speak their mind freely, of course, none of them will dare to question Leo directly. 

"Excuse me for a moment please," Mike said in a calm tone and straightened his gray suit, as if it's wrinkled.

He went to a laptop which was on the table, and after some tapping on the keyboard, the white screen in the office wall displayed some information. 

Everyone of them open their eyes wide, as the company information and Leo's, that they shared with Jerry was displaying in a slideshow on the screen.

'How could this be?  how can the content of their email and mobile phone end up on this screen,' they were all shocked and felt scared. The CEO knew of their scheme, what if he decided to take legal actions.

But at the same time, they were all looking at each other with a questioning gaze, like  'you know jerry? you are also Jerry's person?' and all.

After the end of the slide show, Mike cleared his throat to gain their attention. 

"Everyone of you here has been disclosing the company information, as well as boss day in and day out activities to a certain person, which is against the company policies as well as bring harm to the CEO and the company." He paused and shook his head in a dramatic manner, since he has gotten to the point where Leo has shown kindness again.

"The boss wishes to overlook this and spare you, but if you feel like he is being too nice, you can drop the money before you leave." He added.

"I will report you for hacking into my personal email and my mobile phone." the sharp tongue lady growl in anger and stood up facing Mike who look calm and collected. She still refused to let this slide, even though she's at fault. 

"Ok then," Mike said and walked closer to where she is. Before the lady realized what is going on, he picked up the envelope in front of her. 

"What are you doing?" she asked as her eyes were glued to the envelope in Mike's hand. 

Mike was putting the envelope in his pocket and speaking at the same time. "since you wish to have it the hard way, then I won't stop you."

"You! give it back right now!" she growled, moving closer to Mike and glaring, but also felt scared inside. 'Is she going to lose that money?'

The others knew there was nothing they could do, as there is a clear evidence to their crime and none of them is as courageous as the lady, so they quickly pick up their envelope to avoid any accident happening to it. 

Without minding the closeness, "you can leave now or stay if you need the help of the security to walk." he said to her and moved back to avoid getting choked with the strong scent of her Cologne.

The lady is regretting her actions and made an attempt to snatch the money, by reaching her hand towards Mike's suit, as she pushed her body forward, but Mike was quick and stepped aside, which lead to her tripping, all thanks to her 6 inches high heels. 

"Ah!" she screeched as her body collided with the marble floor, but none of them step forward to help. They started leaving one after another, to avoid the embarrassment of being thrown out by the security.

Mike rolled his eyes and sneered as he also made his way out and helped her informed the security that she needed help leaving the premises.

At the end, the lady was carried out, since she couldn't walk properly, while she cursed out loud and get the confused stares from the other staff, as she has bragged to them before leaving to have the meeting. 

What they got weren't expected at all. The had no idea Leo has decided to rid his company of pest.
