Chapter 723
James said, ’When Finn Cook first started to work at Hotmesh Research, it's Tobey Kitsch who mentored him."
Isaac understood right then.
Since things ended badly for Tobey, he must be aiming for revenge against Irene.
So that was the reason for that phone call?
Isaac sprang to his feet at the thought-lrene was in danger at Hotmesh.
"Get my car..." Isaac began as he put on his jacket, but changed his mind. ’ Forget it. I'm driving there myself."
James wanted to say something, but Isaac already left his office.
He simply shrugged and smiled, and mused to himself that people do change.
He used to think that Isaac would never get worried. But these days...
Meanwhile, Irene ran into yet another disgruntled colleague who wanted to mess with her soon after leaving Dennis's office.
Yolanda King was in her forties, and also unhappy that Irene was airdropped as the next director. Still, she was pompous, and always pulled rank and threw her weight around just because she had seniority, and she certainly loved to be the center of the attention!
Irene was still pondering what to do with Finn and accidentally stepped on Yolanda's toes, so she began to hound Irene relentlessly, not stopping even after she apologized.
"Are you blind? I'm right here, and you're saying you didn't see me? You obviously did it on purpose!"
Irene listened quietly as Yolanda rambled on.
She had already apologized, but there was nothing she could do since
Even so, Dennis tried to reason. "She has what it takes. She used to work at Mead Clinic, and she was the one who got the research data we published earlier-'
"That's not her work. It was just theft in the end." Yolanda certainly did not consider the research data a contribution, and she found Irene simply unsavory.
She was also convinced that everyone in Hotmesh could have done it too!
"You really don't know what's good for you... stay on that high horse all you want," Dennis snorted and turned toward Irene. "You can go now. Just ignore her, or fire her if she keeps this up when you take my place."
Yolanda became flustered right then and grabbed Irene as she blurted,' You only slept your way to the top! You're not making me leave, whoever your backer is! Not everyone can work here, and if you dare fire me, I'll make it so that you won't get to stay either! Test me if you dare!"
"And how do we test you?"
An utterly intimidating deep voice boomed from the walkway.
