The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 225

George collapsed to the floor, his eyes filled with despair and agony. 1

The reason why he was promoted to a senior executive position at such a young age had a lot to do with the strict employment contract that he had signed on his own will. 1

To strengthen the control of their employees, the Spikeworth Corps had issued a very demanding and biased employment contract which guaranteed a promotion after signing, but they would be fully bound by the company. The promotion was guaranteed, but they had to prove that they were worthwhile and work hard to be loyal to the company. If they failed their performance indicator or had disagreements, the company would file a huge claim against them. 5

Many people were afraid to sign such a contract due t o its harsh and stern terms and condition, but at that moment, George was a fresh graduate who was full of ego and strived to succeed. Hence, he had signed the contract decisively despite the somewhat unfair consequences. 1

Indeed, he had been promoted immediately and the company appreciated him very much, but now, the bitter consequences awaited! 1

Kneeling on the floor, George trembled in disbelief and despair.

He had invested all his life and dedication in Spikeworth Corps, but now, not only did the company want to sue him for 5 million, but Zeke White had announced that he had shunned him...

How could he ever find a job again?! If he had no job, h e would have no income, and his life would be in big trouble in addition to the 5 million dollars compensation. There would be no other possibility apart from going to jail...

He grabbed Zeke’s foot and wailed desperately, "Mr. White, please, please forgive me! Please give me another chance! Please! If you blacklist me, where would I find the money to pay the compensation? Please give me one more chance to prove myself! I’ll d o anything for you! I'll be the slave of the company, I’ll behave and be an honest man, contributing my entire effort to the company! Please!" 3

Zeke kicked him away in annoyance and growled," What's the use of apologizing now? It's too late! Do you think the world revolves around you? Do you think that after all this trouble, you can just get away with a simple 'I’m sorry'? It's too late, id*ot. If Master Wade ignores me because of you, I'll kill you with my own hands!" 4

George was shaking with fright, his face as pale and ghastly as a ghost. He had never expected that Charlie, a deadbeat loser in his eyes, had such enormous influence and power in his hands to the point that Zeke would kill him for him! 2
