Celestial Queen: Revenge Is Sweet When You’re A Zillionaire Heiress

Chapter 1004



Chapter 1004:

“Miss Sanderson, what is the meaning of this?”

Harlee, disregarding the question, asked calmly, “Are you here for my brother? What do you need from him?” Before Dina had arrived, Harlee had already signaled for Brenton to conceal himself.

Through clenched teeth, Dina asked, “Miss Sanderson, are you aware that you nearly harmed me just now?” Harlee dismissed her concern with ease, replying flatly, “That’s not possible. The knife wasn’t aimed near you.” Her gaze sharpened.

“Now, tell me—why are you looking for my brother?”

Dina had intended to corner Harlee into apologizing, but Harlee’s commanding presence wiped her thoughts clean, prompting her to blurt out her prepared inquiry.

“Is the recent layoff list personally approved by Mr. Sanderson, or did you decide on it?”

Harlee smirked.

“I made the decisions. What about it?”

Frustration mounting, Dina retorted, “Miss Sanderson, your impulsive actions have resulted in a fatality within the company! Do you realize that?”

Harlee raised an eyebrow. Was it the body that had just been brought back from the morgue? Or the one who hallucinated under the influence before taking his life? With a slight tilt of her head and a barely-there smirk, Harlee responded calmly, “No, I wasn’t aware.”

Dina was taken aback by Harlee’s blunt dismissal and lack of engagement with her concerns. She was momentarily thrown off balance but quickly regained her composure.

Pulling out her smartphone, Dina accessed the anonymous chat forum on the company’s internal network, her tone filled with indignation.

“Your rash layoffs have led Jeff Reed to end his life by leaping from the building. The entire company is in turmoil! And when this news hits the public in the next ten minutes, our stock will plummet!”noveldrama

“Jeff Reed?” Harlee raised her eyebrows in feigned surprise.

Ah, Jeff had overdosed and hallucinated before his fatal fall. Not the sharpest tactic—a thorough autopsy would reveal the truth of his demise.

Anika wouldn’t normally slip up this way.

Harlee suspected that Anika might have convinced Jeff’s family to reject an autopsy and turn down any company compensation, which could complicate matters.

Yet, Harlee remained calm as she took Dina’s phone to look over the messages on the anonymous chat forum.

“Jeff didn’t secure his role through connections but with his competence.

Always ready to lend a hand, he was truly indispensable. Why would you dismiss someone like him, Miss Sanderson?”

“It seems Miss Sanderson acts entirely on her whims. She has no regard for us as employees! She claims she’s purging the company of incapable employees, but it looks more like she’s eliminating those she dislikes.

Did you notice how many from Ms. Stones’ team are on that list? It’s clear she’s targeting Ms. Stones!”

“Really, some of you just switch sides too fast. Just ten minutes ago, you were all singing Miss Sanderson’s praises.”

“Praising her for what? That’s only because naive people like you fall for her narratives.

At heart, she’s just another spoiled daughter from a wealthy family.
