Hao Ren was holding Edgar Hamil by his throat, as if he was not a man but a chicken. The young man suddenly let go, and the latter fell on the ground panting and gasping for air. His eyes were stuck to Hao Ren, however, they were brimming with fear. He could sense that just now, Hao Ren really had the intention to kill him.
This was true as well, Hao Ren did have the intention to kill him, but Han Lingshi was not the reason for his anger. Edgar Hamil was hindering his progress with the relationship. A good relationship meant better rewards from the system. Hao Ren wanted the rewards to have a better future to become somebody.
It was his life's motive, otherwise he had already experienced a pitiful death, what was there to care about.
Han Lingshi may be beautiful, or successful, but that was not enough, because some people searched their own worth and not their partner's.
Hao Ren squatted beside Edgar Hamil and said, "You are the second son in your family, the reason you are trying to court Miss Han is so that your family thinks you got them more profit than your elder brother, right?"
Edgar Hamil gulped as he nodded, this was a public secret. Hao Ren was an average person but that did not mean he was estranged. He heard all sorts of gossips in the market when he rolled with his friend Jin.
Hao Ren said, "You gave this assistant a few benefits and manipulated her to get you closer to Miss Han, right?"
Edgar Hamil nodded again while his hand was rubbing his neck. Hao Ren sighed and said, "Your family supports you in this stupidity of yours not because they want you to move over, but the fact is they just want you to stay away from the family so that you do not get a chance to make trouble for your brother."
Edgar Hamil opened his eyes wide and Hao Ren asked, "Do you want me to tell you how?"
Mei was shocked, and so was Han Lingshi. The former was pissed and asked, "What crime have I committed?"
Hao Ren shrugged and said, "Accepting gifts from people in return of arranging meetings, breach of employer's trust, and sabotaging company interest. I am sure if we dug up some of the lower level employees would file a harassment complaints too."
Mei opened her eyes wide, as she shivered, Hao Ren appeared to be a demon from the hell in her eyes. She knew that all these charges were possible and she could go to jail. Looking at her, Hao Ren asked, "Miss Han, do you have any overseas office where Mei could work?"
Han Lingshi raised her brow and asked, "Why do you ask? Is it not better to throw her in the prison?"
Hao Ren shook his head and replied, "Even men do not feel safe in prison, how would a woman live there? Humans are beings of desires. Miss Mei made a mistake, but she is not beyond redemption just yet."
Han Lingshi thought and looking at Hao Ren she understood his motive. He wanted to make sure that Mei was far away from her but still under her watch. She thought about it and said, "She can take the office for assistant director, sales in the perfume company we have in Venetia."
Hao Ren nodded and looked at Mei, who still could not understand what was going on. Hao Ren said, "If you did not reply to this proposal in one hour, we will call the police. Think about your family and your reputation."
This sentence was the last straw that broke the camels back. Mei bowed ninety degrees and said, "President, I accept, I accept."
Han Lingshi nodded and said, "You will get your things ready and I will arrange for your documentation. After two days, I do not wish to see your face in the country."
Mei nodded and thanked her before leaving the place. Han Lingshi turned her gaze to look at Hao Ren who was focused on her office and a faint smile appeared on her face. Meanwhile, the voice of happiness echoed in Hao Ren's mind, *Ding, task completed, issuing rewards...*
