The Boss’s Daughter was Laid Off Chapter 1

I was suddenly laid off.

The company dismissed me.

At that time, I had just finished signing a contract worth 30 million dollars, but I was the one being laid off.

However, the company's general manager, Jeremy Lawson, who was also my boyfriend, said in front of the entire company that I lacked the ability and only relied on old clients to reap the benefits without putting in any effort.

But little did he know this company was just a small branch of my family's business.

And that woman he was sucking up to, claiming to be the heiress of the Spencer Group, was nothing more than a fake.

***

"I regret to inform you that, due to the company's personnel structure adjustment, we will be terminating your employment with us."

I received a sudden notification from the HR department, and I was completely bewildered.

In our sales department, my abilities were clearly evident. It could be said that I brought in more than half of the company's contracts.

But even so, I ended up being the one laid off.

I came to this company three years ago, starting from a junior position. In order to secure contracts, I worked countless late nights, going above and beyond by accompanying clients to various events and shouldering their concerns. I made an effort to understand their needs deeply, and beyond the regular tasks, I would go the extra mile for anything they needed.

Every assignment given by clients was completed, with prompt updates provided.

Thanks to my strong client relationships, I directly contributed to doubling the size of the company. And yet, they still decided to dismiss me.

I called the company's general manager, Jeremy Lawson, who was also my boyfriend, wanting to find out what was going on. However, he didn't answer my phone call and ignored my messages on WhatsApp.

I had been with the company for three years, and I had been in a relationship with Jeremy for two and a half years.

We were in the same department, but Jeremy was a smooth talker and good at socializing. In addition to wining and dining clients, he enjoyed activities such as golfing, afternoon tea, and singing with them.

I, on the other hand, preferred immersing myself entirely in my work, using my skills to retain clients. Initially, we were not on the same path.

Once, during a company outing, we went to a farmhouse where a mudslide unexpectedly occurred. Despite the danger, Jeremy chose to turn back and save me.

Since that incident, our relationship gradually became more ambiguous, and eventually, we ended up together officially.

In the subsequent promotions, we became competitors. He told me that he wanted to strive for a promotion to save enough money to marry me, promising to treat me well for a lifetime.

For the sake of our future, I withdrew from the competition.

He successfully got promoted and continued to rise through the ranks, eventually reaching the position of general manager.

During the period of economic downturn, many companies had been affected, including ours, and we needed to reduce some costs.

I wasn't surprised that there would be layoffs in our company. There were indeed some employees who simply collected paychecks without putting in the effort. However, I never even dreamt that I would be the first one to be laid off.

When I returned to the company, someone else was already sitting at my desk, and my personal belongings were packed into a shabby cardboard box and thrown into a corner.

Taking a deep breath, I decided to go to Jeremy's office to find him.

At that moment, another colleague from my department, Lola Spencer, who had always been at odds with me, approached.

In an unusual turn of events, she greeted me with a smile and said, "Good afternoon, Ms. Spencer."

I looked at her suspiciously, wondering what she was up to.

"Oh? Why are you packing your things?" She walked over to me with an astonished expression on her face.

Several people in the office started looking in our direction.

Suddenly, Lola seemed to think of something and exclaimed loudly, "Ms. Spencer, you weren't laid off, were you?"

Her words caused the whole office to pause their work and look at me.

I knew she had some ulterior motive behind all this.

"Does it have anything to do with you whether I get laid off or not?"
