Chapter 5 of 6
A Snobbish Employee Slapped The Secret Owner Of The Store
Justice Served Cold
The phone line went quiet as Arthur ended the call to prepare the legal termination papers immediately. Chloe stood behind the glass counter with tears streaming down her face, ruining her expensive mascara as she realized her career in luxury retail was completely over. She would not only lose her job today, but she would also be blacklisted from every high-end shop in the city once word got out about what she had done to the owner's wife.
Maya: You can pack your personal things and leave the keys on the counter right now.
Chloe: Can't you please give me one more chance? I promise I will change!
Marcus: If you don't leave in two minutes, I am calling the police to file formal assault charges against you for hitting my wife.
Chloe: Fine... fine! I am going!
Chloe quickly grabbed her leather purse from under the counter, her hands shaking so hard she dropped her keys onto the floor twice before picking them up. She ran toward the back employee room to gather her belongings, sobbing loudly as the remaining shoppers clapped quietly for the justice that had just been delivered. Maya turned to her husband and smiled warmly, feeling the heavy weight of the humiliation lifted entirely from her shoulders.
Maya: Thank you for having my back, sweetheart.
Marcus: Always, my love. Nobody treats my wife with disrespect in our own house.
Ten minutes later, Chloe walked out the front door with a small cardboard box containing her personal items, her head hung low in complete shame as passersby stared at her. Meanwhile, Marcus walked over to the display rack, carefully removed the fine silk gown that Maya had been admiring earlier, and brought it over to his wife with a gentle smile on his handsome face.
