The Person Fired by the Company Was the CEO’s Wife! Chapter 1

I, the top live streamer of the company, had an audience of ten million fans.

I could sell 17 million dollars a day.

One day, when I was preparing for the live stream, I was suddenly called to the office by HR James Sullivan.

He said that the manager requested random layoffs and I was chosen.

He asked me to hand over and leave before Friday to avoid social security payments starting the following Monday.

The funny thing was that he later came to apologize with lots of gifts.

"Ms. Roberts, how about you come back?"

————

There was a new manager in the company.

He was a friend of the boss of the branch.

A new broom sweeps clean.

Firstly, he rectified the no-overtime culture, expecting all employees to work overtime with him.

He implemented a performance-based elimination system at the end of each month.

Secondly, he cut company expenses by directly deducting overtime taxi fares and snack costs.

None of this had anything to do with me.

After all, I was the company's top live streamer, with a daily turnover of 17 million dollars.

However, I didn't expect the third change to affect me directly.

While discussing live stream selections with my colleagues, James suddenly asked me to the office.

He said, "Ms. Roberts, as the year comes to a close, the company has decided to cut costs and enhance efficiency through random layoffs. Unfortunately, you've been chosen."

My eyes widened in disbelief as I found myself on the layoff list.

I sought confirmation from senior management, questioning their awareness of the decision.

"Mr. Wallace has already signed it."

Silas Wallace was the new manager.

"What about compensation?"

I tried to stay calm and discuss the compensation first.

James presented a timesheet indicating my frequent absences.

I scoffed at it.

The company's working hours were from 8 am to 6 pm, but our livestream started at 8 pm.

So, was my livestream not considered work at all?

"According to the time sheet, you've been absent from work for three consecutive days. The company has the right to withhold compensation."

"Isn't live streaming considered work? There are millions of viewers watching me work every day."

James rubbed his forehead and took out a document signed by Silas.

"Last month, Mr. Wallace issued a document stating that failure to sign in or out will be considered as absenteeism."

"You replied, received."

I had been catching up on sleep and absentmindedly responded to the group message before going back to sleep.

Little did I know it was such a disgusting document.

"I don't think the labor law stipulates this."

James frowned, feeling quite embarrassed.

He was also a worker.

"Let me be frank, causing a scene might not be in your best interest."

"Our company is quite influential. If Mr. Wallace speaks ill of you, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to find another job."

I I chuckled coldly.

The company had grown from a little branch to a giant in the industry with a daily turnover of tens of millions. Even the headquarters held it in high regard.

Wasn't I the one primarily responsible for this success?

"Did Silas inform you of this?"

James nodded and continued, "He also said that you must hand over your work and leave by Friday, or else social security deductions will commence next Monday."

"You don't have to stream today. Assist the new streamer behind the scenes."

I was so angry and amused by Silas's actions.

I had worked in the company for five years.

There wasn't even a proper farewell.

But I wouldn't let this go easily.

I would make Silas see if the company could survive without me.
