You're Fired !

06

Unfortunately, Lisa did not expect that after eating so much meat and restoring so much energy, she would eventually have to use it for work.
Halfway through the meal, Hyunjae’s phone call came again.

“Come to the office, there is a temporary case, you can help to handle it.”
Lisa was holding her breath, but she could only say goodbye to Mina and Roserushed all the way back to the law firm in a blaze of glory.

At this hour, the rest of the colleagues in the firm had gone home, leaving only Hyunjae’s office with the lights on.
Lisa returned to her workstation and opened her computer to read the emails, but it would have been okay if she didn’t look at them. This time, there was only Lisa’s anger.

The emotions that she had been suppressing since she returned to A City from B City finally exploded at this moment, and Lisa rushed into Hyunjae’s office with the print out of emails and case files.

“Teacher Hyunjae, what’s going on? Explain to me?” Lisa looked at an animal sculpture on Hyunjae’s desk and felt that this thing was really ugly which made her even more angry.
Hyunjae rubbed his eyebrows and looked at the case files thrown on his desk by Lisa “Didn’t I write clearly? This case, you are responsible for closing it.”

“Closing it? You call this closing?” Lisa couldn’t stand it any longer, “   Kang Dami got into trouble and you want me to wipe her ass? The last labour dispute in Dongguan was also a case in which I intervened independently in the early stages, and all the settlement negotiations and agreements were all done, but at the last moment you said you wanted her to work it out and gave my case to her, so she could pick the fruits of my victory? You said to me to promote the younger generation, I put up with it, but then she screwed up a case that only required her to sign it, and then without saying a word, I was the one responsible for it again, and I was the one who wiped her shit. I have told you many times that I don’t want to be on the same team with her!”

“Lisa! Watch your words!”
Hyunjae’s face was still handsome, but his face was completely sunken. He took off his glasses, “I’ve been so indulgent, so indulgent that you’ve forgotten who the boss is, and you’ve been pushing back on all the orders you’ve been given!”

Even when she had made a particularly serious mistake when she first started working on a case and lost the case, Hyunjae had never lectured her like this, and when she thought of those rumors, Lisa had a feeling that things were no more same and her eyes redden at the thought, “Mr. Kim, when did I push away any obstacle your way? You asked me to come back from B City and did not even ask my opinion. I actually did not want to, but I came back. Inexplicably you let her join my independent case, I put up with it. At the end when the case was already settled, because she finally inserted a foot and did not do anything, you still gave her a surprising half of my share. I also put up with it, but you should know, my patience also has a limit!”

After Lisa’s venting, Hyunjae’s expression finally eased up, but his tone was still impatient, “Okay, I know, she’s not as experienced as you are, she’s timid, you should be more tolerant, when you were a newcomer, weren’t you like that too?” After he finished, he looked at Lisa, “There’s a non-compete dispute with a bid of twenty million dollars afterwards, you can have this case.”

Lisa was deflated. Hyunjae was like that, he always thought that after giving you a blow, he would appease you and give you candy and that would be the end of it. But what Lisa wanted was not appeasement at all, but an attitude, a fair and unbiased attitude.

When she was at the B City branch, there were already many rumours about Kim Hyunaje, saying that he had recruited a female lawyer with a poor resume, who was not qualified to join the firm, and that he usually took care of her personally, giving her all the good cases, and if she was not competent enough, he would “rob the rich to help the poor” and put her into the rest of the firm’s mature lawyer’s team. The firm’s head office has a lot of information about the company.

The A City firm’s head office was full of complaints about this female lawyer named Kang Dami, and several of the junior partners had a fight with Hyunjae over this matter. However,  Hyunjae responded well, but he still went his own way. Therefore, the team became eccentric. Not long ago, several partners left the firm and changed jobs, taking away a group of stalwarts and lots of valuable clients and ZhaoHui was badly hit.

It was precisely because of this reason that Hyunjae transferred Lisa from the branch office back to the main office.

Originally, Lisa did not care about those true and false rumours, because she heard that Dami was not pretty, and even the colleagues in the head office did not think that because Hyunjae had taken a fancy to her, so he looked favourably on her. Looking at Hyunjae’s professional ability and company’s income, what kind of beautiful woman he can’t have.

It was not until Lisa  returned to A City and met Dami that she understood everything.

It was true that she was not beautiful, but she was too much like Hyunjae’s dead fiancée, Sowoon.

When she thought of Sowoon, the fire in Lisa’s heart was finally suppressed a little. She didn’t want to argue any more, so she just bowed her head, pursed her lips, took the information and prepared to leave.

But she didn’t expect that while she didn’t want to argue, other people didn’t think so.

Lisa pulled open the door and saw Dami standing outside the door, with a face similar to Sowoon’s, but her eyes were full of malice that Sowoon would not have. She had obviously been listening outside the door without saying a word for a long time.
She just looked straight and provocatively at Lisa with a malicious smile, and then she opened her mouth.

“Hyunajae, I’m sorry, it’s all my fault, I’m too clumsy, I’m always unable to handle the case perfectly, always dragging down lawyer Manoban, that’s why lawyer Manoban is not willing to take me, not willing to teach me, it’s all my fault, I’m too stupid, I’m sorry, lawyer Manoban, I’m sorry, I’ll definitely follow you and learn properly, don’t be mean to me and dislike me in the future, I’ll listen to whatever you say ……”

“Hyunjae, I know you take care of me, I know you care about all newcomers like me, but in the future you really do not need to care about me, I am afraid that this way, whether it’s lawyer Manoban or other colleagues, they will have unnecessary misunderstandings about me……”
Dami said in a low soft voice with an ever changing sad expression on her face. She lowered her eyelashes and looked up again. Her eyes were red and full of sadness as tears fell straight. Although she didn’t look good, she really looked sad with an appearance of crying.

Hyunjae really could not resist her crying with this face, he threw down the case file, hurriedly walked over and began to comfort Dami, and then looked at Lisa.
Just this one glance ignited all of Lisa’s anger again.

It was clearly a look of condemnation.
When had she been avoiding her and not teaching her? It was clearly because she liked idling around, refused to learn, and was always thinking of evil ways to engage in office fights.

A newcomer? She has four years of experience in other law firms. This old cucumber painted herself green and said she was a newbie!

Damn it, I want to kill this white lotus!

On the way home, Lisa was angry, but she thought it would be better to think of the handsome straight man to lighten her mood!

Yes! It’s time to arrange a relationship for myself!
