The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Boss Chapter 1239

Soft-Hearted

The worker froze. His hands clenched in anxiousness. “Of course not. Can I continue working here?”
Jacob’s mouth twitched. He wanted to fire this person long ago.

If not for the fact that things were not clear yet and he was worried that firing the worker would only turn
him against them, causing a more serious impact on the project, he would not have kept this worker
until now.
However, the worker actually said that he wanted to stay and work here?
Did he not bring them enough bad luck already?

His resume was brilliant enough and Nicole gave him such a big cake, but he repeatedly encountered
various difficulties.
He was almost too ashamed to meet others.

However, Nicole only smiled faintly and nodded in assurance.

“Of course. If it’s found that what you did wasn’t on purpose, of course, you can continue to work here.”
The worker stiffened for a moment before immediately standing up in excitement. He was just about to
step forward, but Luca came up from behind Nicole and stopped him in time. Luca looked at the worker
coldIy and sternly.
The worker realized his gaffe and quickly took a step back.

“I’m sorry, I was too worked up today. I’ve been in fear these days, worrying that I’d have to pay if I lose
a lawsuit. I

really didn’t mean to. I’m willing to do anything. I just can’t lose my job…”



His voice gradually choked. He was probably under too much pressure these days, which made him
feel suffocated until he could not breathe.
Nicole pursed her lips and smiled at him.

“We won’t file a lawsuit against you. You weren’t behind this anyway. You were also used by someone
else. But the project may be delayed in the near future, so you have to talk to your workers and tell
everyone to be patient. After the matter passes, work can restart again.” The worker immediately
nodded with red eyes, looking solemn. “Yes, I’ll definitely tell them. This is a great company. We won’t
go anywhere but here!” Nicole smiled and looked at Logan.

Logan immediately stepped forward politely to send him off. “Ms. Stanton knows that you’ve suffered
for this. When this matter is over, she won’t treat you all badly.” The worker was so touched that he did
not know what to say. He nodded excitedly and followed Logan out the door.

When Logan returned to the conference room, Jacob finally sighed in relief.

Jacob was still a little confused why Nicole told the worker so bluntly that he would not be fired.
However, at the final moment, he realized Nicole’s intentions.
Seeing Jacob standing there silently without speaking, Nicole glanced at him faintly.

“Mr. Cook, if you have something to say, then say it straight.” Nicole had been watching Jacob from her
peripheral vision. He wanted to say something but did not dare to. Jacob pursed his lips. His
expression grew solemn.

“I’m sorry, Ms. Stanton. This matter was caused by my lack of vigilance, which allowed others to take
advantage of the situation.”

Nicole paused. She did not expect him to be able to self- reflect.
After all, Jacob was already quite old. He was considered an old employee in the company.



Her lips twitched.
“Save the self-reflection for later. Tell me about your thoughts on this.”

Jacob looked up with an unchanging expression. “Ms. Stanton, you didn’t fire him because you wanted
him to stabilize the morale of the other workers, right?” Nicole pursed her lips and nodded with a soft
laugh. “I thought that you already knew that.” Jacob’s face reddened.

He did not think of that at first.

It was the worker’s last few words that woke him up. In a fit of anger, Jacob had almost screwed things
up and gotten rid of this group of workers. Anyone could drink too much and say a few drunken words.
The workers did not care about the long-term development of a business. What they cared about were
their immediate vested interests.
