Your Turn to Chase Me, Reborn For Revenge-Chapter 110 - Fired

"You shut up!" Aarna couldn't take it anymore, could not just stand there and listen to Sophie slander April like that.

April glanced at Aarna and held her arm in reassurance, "It's okay let her finish what she has to say."

Aarna looked at April and then Micheal even though she was worried about her friend.

April could feel the love from her friends and she couldn't help but smile. Micheal and Aarna were true friends and she was happy to have met them both.

Having everyone quieted down Sophie smirked, sitting back in her seat she felt April was backed into a corner now and not even Aarna could help her.

"So you are saying April went against company policy and on her own accord met up a client?" Micheal asked Sophie. He had wanted her to dig herself into a hole that she couldn't get out of.

"Yes, Mich… I mean Mr Palmer. She must have gotten greedy, not only has she got Mr Stewarts and Mr Davis as clients she wanted Director Compton too." Sophie replied.

"So what you are implying is that she may have used illicit means to get all these contracts or just Director Compton's contract as a client," Micheal asked.

Sophie paused for a moment to think, she couldn't possibly damage Dean Davis or James Stewart's reputation with this lie, after all, she wanted to take them as clients after April was fired. Director Compton on the other hand had disappeared and he didn't have a good reputation anyway.

So she simply replied, "No it was only Director Compton that April met alone… what they may or may not have done in that private room… only the two of them will know. I have no doubt she will deny it after all who would."

April could only laugh.

"I don't think this is funny," Sophie then snarked back at April.

"You're right, it isn't funny. So what you're saying is my portfolio of work is good enough for one elite businessman like Dean to hire me and I suppose what I could only say is a small businessman like Mr Stewart to hire me based on my work alone. But to attain a client like Director Compton who is leagues apart from Dean's calibre I have to meet him in private and lose my dignity in order to attain him as a client." April laid it all out for Sophie. ƒ𝔯𝗲𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oѵℯl.𝒄𝑜m

"Well, I don't know… I mean maybe you liked Director Compton and you wanted to… I don't know." Sophie tried a new angle. She didn't know April's portfolio or what her work was like.

Micheal had had enough of this, it was dragging on and he wanted to end it now, "Sophie do you think I am a smart man?"

Sophie didn't know why he had asked this but her response could only be, "Yes of course you are Mr Palmer."

"Good because as a smart man I investigate everything before taking any action and of course after last week's event I had all communication between everyone in the office investigated." Micheal thought the show was ending but with Emma here he wondered if he could end up firing them both or separating a catfight.

"You did? When? But you can't do that. Our emails are private for our clients." Sophie stood up she was shocked that the company could do that, she had never thought of this as a possible outcome, she thought she was careful.

Micheal smirked and added "I did and I can. The computers are owned by the company, the emails you use are all sent through the company's intranet. So therefore I can request a full forensic diagnostic of any computers."

"Well, what did you find?" Sophie had hoped for the best but was now fearing the worst was coming.

"Before I say it, do you have anything to say?" Micheal gave her one last chance to own up on her own.

"N… no." Sophie stuttered out.

Bing, the lift door opened and Emma finally came into the office she noticed Micheal over at Sophie's desk and of course she knew why. Sophie had filled her in on her plan to trap April, she had spoken to her about it and gave her a location to trap her with Director Compton but she wasn't stupid enough to put anything in writing. She smiled and stood beside Micheal, she wanted to get on his good side.

"Good morning Michael." Emma smiled and greeted him but ignored the rest of the employees.

"Morning, I am just about to terminate Sophie's contract. Do you have any issues with that?" Micheal had thought Emma was probably aware or part of what had gone down with April but with no evidence, he couldn't fire her.

"None sir, I'm sure you have your own reasons for that." Emma nodded and agreed with Micheal, she honestly didn't care what happened to Sophie.

"Wait… I am getting fired? Why?" Sophie shrieked, why did this conversation go so wrong it had started with her explaining what April did wrong not her.

"Like I was saying earlier, after we did the forensics on the emails within the team we have evidence that you and an outsider of the company set up the meeting between April and Director Compton and then you requested that April attend that meeting. Knowing full well it is against company policy and also that she would be in danger" Micheal put his arm back around April and continued, "Luckily not only is April savvy but she is also a badass and she protected herself from that predator."

"Sophie, you did all that. I am shocked." Emma added, she acted genuinely shocked.

"What? Wait, you knew about it too Emma. Micheal Emma was part of it too that's why I sent those emails to April they were on Emma's behalf.." Sophie walked around her desk and came in front of Micheal, her eyes pleading and she grabbed his suit.
