Chapter 507
“H–how could that be? I–impossible!” Terrence’s eyes were bulging with disbelief. Although he did not put much effort into the job, at least he didn’t make any mistakes. On top of that, he was carefree during his time
with the company because he had the backing of the higher–ups. Given his social connections, it wouldn’t
make sense for him to get fired. He couldn’t wrap his head around the situation.
“Terrence, you’re fired?” Julie was bug–eyed when she noticed the change in Terrence’s expression. He had promised her the business contract, but how did he end up losing his job instead?
“It looks like there’s trouble.” Dahlia furrowed her brows and appeared pensive. She had pinned her hopes on Terrence, but he wouldn’t be of any help anymore.
“Cole Suzman, be honest–were you playing dirty behind my back?” Terrence fixed his gaze on Cole.
“Why would I do so when there’s nothing between us? Plus, even if I wanted, I wouldn’t have the power to do that. You should look at yourself for the reason,” Cole said impassionately. He had long been frustrated by employees who were coasting at work, and he was more than pleased to see Terrence fired.
“Bullshit! No one else could have done that except for you! You must have ratted on me!” Terrence glowered at him. He had embezzled money when he was on the job, and Cole must have found the evidence.
“Well, if you insist on thinking so, I can’t do anything about it.” Cole could not be bothered to explain himself. After all, he couldn’t care less since Terrence was no longer an employee.
“You’re wicked, Cole Suzman!” Terrence’s features contorted into a threatening scowl. “If you think you’ve won, you’re wrong! I’ll let you know–I have backing within the company. Even if I’m fired today, I will get rehired
tomorrow!”
“Oh, really? And who’s that person backing you?” Cole questioned him.
“You might want to sit down for this. My uncle is the CEO of the company!” Terrence announced proudly.
“That explains why a guy like you would work your way into a managerial role. It’s all thanks to your connection!” Cole’s expression fell He heard about Terrence’s jaw–dropping social connections, but he never thought that Terrence was a relative of the CEO. He worried that he might be in trouble.
“Are you afraid now?” Terrence sneered.
“Suzman, if you were the one who ratted me out, you made the dumbest mistake in your life. Apologize to me now, or you’ll be the one who’s kicked out tomorrow!” Given his uncle’s authority in the company, getting rid of a manager was an easy task.
“Terrence Stone, don’t be smug. Do you think you can do as you wish just because you have connections?” Cole frowned disapprovingly.
“That’s right! I can do anything I wish with the backing of my uncle. Why? Are you unhappy about it? What are you going to do?” Terrence threw his head back and laughed, knowing that he’d be fine in any crisis as long as his uncle was in the company.
“Terrence, I didn’t know your uncle was the CEO! That’s amazing!” Julle gave him a look of adoration. A department manager was nothing compared to the CEO.

“Hmph, I’m doing well in the company, it’s all thanks to my connections!” Terrence held his head high.
“See that. Dahlia? That’s how amazing Terrence’s connections are! He can easily take care of a business
contract for us!” Looking conceited, Julie turned her attention to Dustin. “Dustin, do you have anything else to
say? Are you convinced now?”
Dustin just smiled back at her. At first, Terrence was the only one who got into trouble. After this commotion,
Terrence unknowingly dragged his uncle down. He bet Terrence’s uncle would cry at the thought of having
Terrence as his nephew.
“Suzman, what are you standing there for? I said to apologize to me now! I can take everything from you by making just one call!” Terrence grew aggressive.
“You’d better not go too far!” Cole shot him a stern look.
“So what if I do? I can afford to do that anyway!” Terrence snickered.
Cole stammered at his audacity. “Y–you-”
Terrence wasn’t wrong–he was able to do what he liked with the CEO’s backing.
“You ran into a wall didn’t you? It’s all your fault for being cocky, and it’s too late to regret your actions now!” Julie smirked gleefully.
