Ex-wife, Please Come Back

Cindy had always stayed by Jacob's side. The company's business was not only his business but also hers. Because of this, she paid as much attention as Jacob did.

It was futile to care in silence. Unfortunately, she had no other means to change it.

Jacob threw a pile of documents on the table and ordered in a stern manner, "Speak!"

"There are employees who don't even bother showing up at all. Even if we've already informed them, they just pretend that they did not hear it, and they still come to work. They reason out that if the company is unable to give a reasonable explanation, this matter will not be over."

Cindy glanced at Jacob nervously, afraid that he would be angry and would start thrashing the table.

Unexpectedly, Jacob looked calm. He just nodded and replied, "The financial department will take the matter into their own hands. They'll remove the people on the list and won't give them a salary for next month. They can come to work, but since the company has already fired them, their work, even if there's any, will no longer be recognized."

Cindy looked at him in disbelief. She had never expected that he could solve such a dilemma in just a few sentences.

"Yes, yes. I'll notify them right away. By the way, Mr. Jacob, is there anything else I can do to help?" She glanced at him, apprehension could be seen on her face. She was really worried about the matter at hand.

Jacob shot her a glum look and pondered for a moment before he said, "Call Mr. James and ask him to come here. I have something to discuss with him."

Cindy nodded in response and then turned to leave. Meanwhile, Jacob rested his head on his hand. He was obviously exhausted due to what was happening recently. As she reached the door, she glanced at him from the corner of her eyes. Then, with a sigh, she walked out of the office.

James arrived not long after. He came to the office as soon as he could and waited for Jacob to compose himself.

"What's wrong, Jacob? Why did you ask me to come here? What happened? Haven't you finished dealing with the matter concerning Sara's mother?" James's worried tone calmed Jacob's anxious heart.
