Keegan descended the stairs and found a sizable crowd gathered downstairs. Maya sat outside the railing on the second floor,crying and pleading to the onlookers. Some snapped pictures while others chattered away.
Sophia first spotted Keegan, and she promptly called out, “Mr. Kane!” Instantly, the crowd hushed and parted to make way forhim.
Jackson, who had someone bring him a chair to the second floor for a better view, was sitting there, sipping his coffee. When hesaw Keegan, he paused and smirked. “Keegan, you finally showed up.”
Keegan glanced at Jackson and looked around. He said in a cold and authoritative voice, Everyone, get back to your work!”
Those few words exuded an overwhelming sense of intimidation. Then, seeing the crowd begin to disperse, Jackson spoke up,“Keegan, Maya has served our family for a long time. If you don’t handle this matter fairly and transparently, even if it’s resolved,people will think our company is using its power to suppress others.”novelbin
Maya seized the moment to speak up, “Don’t leave, everyone! I’m not only the housemaid for the Kane family but also anemployee of the Vinci Rivera Group. I’ve dedicated over a decade of my life to the Kane family. Though | may not haveaccomplished much, I’ve worked hard. But now that I’m middle age, they want me to leave. If they can do this to me, you couldbe next!” The uproar downstairs intensified.
The Vinci Rivera Group had a significant number of long-time employees. In addition, the company had recently brought intalented individuals. Unfortunately, some of the older staff members were laid off with limited positions available. Many fearedthey could be next. Even if they had a wealth of experience, as they aged, they could not compete physically with youngerpeople. Therefore, they did not have an advantage in the competition for positions. Maya’s speech struck a chord with those whohad devoted most of their lives to the company. When they felt they were at risk of being kicked out by their employer, they couldnot help but empathize with her plight.
As a result, those who had intended to leave hesitated and paused in their tracks.
