Chapter 11
“What, has the company’s Legal Department completely disappeared?”
The assistant glanced cautiously at Theodore and said, “Mr. Bensen, Ms. Gearey recently laid off all the people in the Legal Department.”
Upon hearing this, Theodore was somewhat incredulous at what he had just heard.
“She fired everyone, why didn’t anyone notify me.
“No one informed me, but it’s fine.”
“Did the administration agree to it like that?”
་་
The assistant dared not speak anymore, lowered his head and silently
cursed.
The people in the company were willing to let Samantha do as she pleased. It was all because of Theodore’s favoritism towards her. Even Evelyn, who had been married to Mr. Bensen for many years, was overshadowed by Samantha. No one dared to say a word against her in
front of her.

Theodore rubbed the throbbing veins on his forehead and said, “Call Samantha.”
As soon as the words fell, a knock on the door was heard. Following closely behind was Samantha’s artificially sweet voice.
“Theodore, you must be tired from work. I want to come and accompany you to rest for a while.”

The assistant glanced awkwardly at Theodore, seeing his face turn even more pale, he didn’t dare to breathe.
During this period, Theodore and Samantha were getting along very well. Every time Samantha said something like that, the two of them would definitely show their affection for each other.
But now, it seems that it is not the right time to talk about love.
Theodore tightened the pen in his hand, his voice hard and cold, “Come in.”
Samantha walked in and saw Theodore’s expression, she paused for a moment. Then she realized.
“I knew you were angry with Ms. Finchum.”
“However, she also realized that even if she wanted to protect her sister, she couldn’t ignore the law.”
“Theodore, wait for me to go and persuade her properly later. I believe she will definitely come to her senses.
Samantha’s generous remarks did not soften Theodore’s expression. Instead, he seemed even angrier.
Finally, unable to control himself, he slammed the file in his hand onto Samantha’s face.
Samantha didn’t stand firm and fell down directly, hitting her head on the corner of the table. Immediately, a red swelling appeared.
She subconsciously looked at Theodore with tearful eyes full of
W
grievances. But when she met the emotionless black eyes of the man, she couldn’t help but shiver.

“Theodore, what’s wrong with you? Samantha asked in a weak voice.”
Theodore burst out laughing immediately.
“What’s wrong with me? How dare you ask me what’s wrong?”
“Who gave you the authority to dismiss all the employees in the company’s Legal Department?”
“Okay, now that there is a legal dispute in the project, who should I go
to?”

Upon hearing this, Samantha actually breathed a sigh of relief. She slowly stood up, lifted her chin, and returned to her usual aloof and resolute demeanor.
“Originally, you were angry with me because of this matter.”
“But Theodore, there are so many women in the Legal Department, I’m just worried that you might be led astray by them.”
“What’s more, having me is enough, don’t you believe in my professional ability?”
Theodore angrily smashed the ashtray beside him to the ground.
“Professional ability?” Theodore gritted his teeth, “You don’t really think you have any strength, do you?”
“I couldn’t remember any of the professional knowledge, and I have never won a case in court.”
“It was me who supported you, did you really think you had the ability?”
