Chapter 7 - The Corrupt Manager Tries To Silence Young Annie

As security hauled Samuel toward the glass exit doors, the disgraced manager twisted around with a venomous glare.
“You think you’re so smart, you little brat!” Samuel screamed directly at Annie, spittle flying from his lips.
“I made sure your replacement requests were denied because you kept questioning my inventory reports!”
“And now you’ve ruined my career over a broken piece of scrap metal!”
Jonathan stepped smoothly in front of Annie, blocking Samuel’s view and cutting off his furious tirade with a cold wave of his hand.
“Get him out of my sight before I add federal felony charges for workplace harassment,” Jonathan commanded the guards.
The heavy glass doors swung shut behind Samuel, cutting off his frantic shouting as he was removed from the property.
Annie stood frozen beside her desk, her chest rising and falling as the adrenaline rush of the confrontation settled into her bones.
