Chapter: 5160
Leaf Chen raised an eyebrow: "Just now I was called a scoundrel, and now it's an honor? Mr. Peterson seems to be quite adaptable."
Matthew Peterson's scalp began to tingle with shock, hastily waving his hand and saying, "No, no, I have no suspicion about you at all!"
He quickly pointed to Amy Lee on the side, who was in a state of panic, and blurted out, "It's Amy Lee who has poor eyesight, always questioning your identity, and I'm also being misled by her..."
Amy Lee suddenly felt her heart racing rapidly, not expecting the boss to shift the responsibility onto herself.
She was about to explain when she saw Matthew Peterson making frantic eye contact with her, so she could only nervously say, "I apologize, Mr. Ye, it's all my fault, I have poor eyesight, please don't judge me like that..."
Leaf Chen saw Matthew Peterson trying to deflect responsibility onto Amy Lee and didn't seem surprised at all, so he began speaking, saying, "As for me, I generally dislike arguing with others."
Upon hearing this, Matthew Peterson and Amy Lee both thought Leaf Chen was not judging them similarly, and their expressions instantly lightened up.
However, Leaf Chen's tone suddenly changed, and he said coldly: "But today is an exception!"
The two of them heard this and were instantly startled.
Leaf Chen looked at Matthew Peterson and said calmly: "Mr. Peterson, let's discuss our matters later."
After saying that, he also looked at Amy Lee and smiled slightly: "Miss Wang, even if you question me, it's fine. But what I don't tolerate is when you mock and insult my wife, or say she has a wicked heart and a snake-like nature. I'm Leaf Chen, and even if my temper is good, I won't be able to bear your insults towards my wife."
Amy Lee's face turned pale white, and she hastily explained: "Leaf Mr. ... I... I just said something wrong in the heat of the moment... Don't judge me the same way..."
After finishing speaking, she quickly looked at Shuo Ru, begging: "Ru, please forgive me this one time for my mistake..."
Shuo Ru hadn't spoken yet when Fei Ke Xin suddenly cut in and spoke up: "Shuo Ru is a good friend of mine, and Mr. Ye owes me another favor. You dare to speak disrespectfully to them! Even if Mr. Ye and Ru forgive you today, I won't forgive you."
After saying that, Fei Ke Xin looked at Amy Lee and said coldly: "In my opinion, people like you shouldn't continue working in the design industry! I'll propose a recommendation to the International Designers' Association to thoroughly eliminate your type of flawed designers from the industry!"
Fei Ke Xin was really going to banish her.
Amy Lee heard this and almost fainted on the spot.
She had just been promoted to a high-level partner in the company today, and her future was originally bright. If Fei Ke Xin really wants to banish her, no renowned design company in the world would dare to hire her again, let alone those powerful clients who wouldn't risk offending Fei Ke Xin.
The design industry is inherently a service industry. To achieve a certain level of success, one must serve high-end clients. Once you've lost them, you'll immediately become the bottom layer of the design industry.
Privately, if you have high-end clients, even a simple mansion design could be worth hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars. But once you've lost those clients, it's hard to get projects, let alone a large-scale commercial building or iconic architectural project.
Publicly, with high-end clients, the design projects you undertake are often massive events like sports stadiums or major festivals. If you lose those clients, even trying to take on a small residential development project would be a long shot.
Moreover, Amy Lee understands her own situation all too well. She doesn't have any exceptional design talent and has only managed to climb to where she is today by compromising her body. If she's really banished from high-end clients, it's hard for her to earn money at small design companies or even start her own studio.
Originally, Amy Lee could earn an annual salary of several hundred thousand dollars. But if she's really banished and can't survive in the design industry, there won't be any other high-paying industries where she can find a foothold. It'll be hard for her to earn tens of thousands of dollars a year!
The huge gap makes her regret it deeply, so she kneels down in front of Fei Ke Xin and Amy Lee, choking back tears: "Mr. Ye, Ms. Fei, please consider my past mistakes and spare me this one... I've worked so hard to get where I am today, and if you banish me, I'll have nothing left..."
Fei Ke Xin looked at her and then turned to Matthew Peterson, who was amused by the question: "Mr. Peterson, can you really let an employee like this become a high-level partner in your company? As the chairman of the board, shouldn't you also take responsibility?" JrNovels.com
