Tracy had been quite the headache lately. First, she was tracking him, then feigning illness, and then causing a scene at the seminar, which left him mentally exhausted.
Since Tracy’s heart was clearly not in her work, and she had caused the company to lose so much money this time, she was no longer fit to work at the corporation.
Chandler felt that by not making Tracy compensate the company for its losses, he was already showing her the greatest possible mercy
Quinton paused, then acknowledged, “Understood.”
He also felt the CEO’s wife had been too much trouble lately, with her resignations and feigned illnesses.
She really went to great lengths to gain Mr. Gaunt’s attention. It was normal for Mr. Gaunt to be angry since she had cost the company so much.
She wanted to resign anyway; this was just giving her what she wanted. Quinton noted that Tracy’s resignation period was almost up and left with the documents.
Quinton quickly found Tracy and expressed Chandler’s meaning tactfully, “Mr. Gaunt said that your mistake this time resulted in significant losses for the company, but Mr. Gaunt, mindful of his relationship with you, decided not to make you compensate for the damages. He feels you are no longer focused on work, so he has decided to dismiss you, asking you to return home as a full-time wife. Your resignation period is almost over anyway, and your handover should be nearly complete, right? Please organize your belongings now. You don’t need to come into the office tomorrow.”
He thought he had phrased it very delicately, hoping the madam would accept it. If she wanted to keep the CEO, she really needed to stop creating trouble.
To attract the CEO’s attention, the madam actually joked around with the company’s profits. She was too much.
If things continued this way, their relationship would only grow tenser, which was no good
g to Quinton, Tracy sneered inwardly. Hus Chandler become this disgusted with me?
condemned her without even asking, and now wanted her to be a full-time wife at home.
Wanting a harem, huh? That’s quite a pipe dream!
She would not be content to be his gilded cage canary, closing her eyes to his actions and

settling for a compromise.
She wasn’t heartbroken, just a little indignant, but she had to endure it for now. After all, one was on her side.
“I understand,” Tracy replied, and returned to organize her things.
With the countdown now at seven days, she had been fired by Chandler. Her heart was numb, as if she had lost all feeling.
After bidding her colleagues farewell, Tracy quickly knocked on Felix’s office door.
no
When she entered, Felix stood up and sighed, “Mr. Gaunt is letting you go without properly investigating. I feel very helpless. Although your resignation was nearly up, there’s a big difference between being fired and resigning voluntarily. Your capabilities are obvious to all of us. I hope you recover quickly and have a bright future.”
Tracy smiled and shook Felix’s hand, “Thank you for taking care of me over the years.”
In recent years, Chandler’s coldness and his reckless false accusations had been much worse than this.
The old her would have caused a scene, rushing to confront Chandler immediately.
But now, nothing mattered. She was leaving any way; it was just a matter of timing, wasn’t it?
Felix nodded slightly, “You’ve worked hard yourself, or you wouldn’t have achieved what you have today.”
He was a man who valued talent and appreciated Tracy’s abilities, but given the company’s decision and Tracy’s health situation.
Even if he was reluctant, he knew he couldn’t keep her this time.
Leaving the company, Tracy returned home and immediately tore off the page dated the twenty-third.
Her packing was mostly finished. Only one suitcase remained in the room.
The moment the time arrived, she could grab the suitcase and walk away.
When Chandler, who had been missing for several days, returned, Tracy was having dinner. Jennie quickly greeted him.
“Sir, you didn’t call to say you were coming back. I haven’t prepared your dinner. Should I make a fresh meal?”

Chandler handed his briefcase to Jennie, “No need. I’ve already eaten.”

Hearing the commotion, Tracy continued eating without lifting her head. Since Chandler had gone this far, she had nothing left to cherish.
Chandler’s return instantly made her appetite, which was already poor, completely vanish.
Chandler ignored Tracy and went straight upstairs. Jennie watched the two, who seemed like strangers, feeling anxious but powerless.
When the madam used to cause trouble, Jennie thought she was a bit dramatic, but now that the madam was quiet, the couple seemed like strangers.
Something was clearly wrong between them. It seemed that the moment the madam let go, their relationship would completely end.
Tracy put down her fork and went upstairs. After showering, she received a call from Sam, “Tracy, one of our core technical personnel was poached by a rival company. He’s being very demanding and says he’s leaving in a few days. I heard the rival company is offering him much higher pay than us. Your resignation is effective in a few days; you could take over his job right after.”
Tracy glanced at the hair drying towel in her hand, “That’s quite the coincidence. I was just dismissed by the company. I can start working next Monday.”
Sam paused, then comforted Tracy, “The company welcomes you back anytime. Your resignation is almost up anyway, so a few days doesn’t matter.”
Tracy felt the same way, but being wrongly accused still didn’t feel good. She was inevitably upset, but even if she found out who was responsible for the sabotage, no one would believe her, so the outcome would be the same.
Forget it. I’ll let that person be arrogant for a while. Il find a chance later to settle all the old and new
scores.
Thinking this, Tracy nodded in agreement, “Hnim, you’re right.”
“So when do you plan to start working?”
“I want to rest for a few days. How about next Monday?”
Sam nodded understandingly, “Okay, see you Monday then!”
After hanging up, Tracy set her phone aside, put the hair drying cap on her head, and applied a face mask.
At ten o’clock, Tracy went to bed precisely on time, completely ignoring what Chandler was

Tracy was woken up by her phone ringing. She squinted her eyes and saw it was Trevor calling. Without hesitation, she hung up.
Soon, Trevor sent a message. She didn’t intend to read it, but she saw the word Grandma.
