Game Over No Second Chances novel Chapter 171

The entire lobby fell silent. Shania's smile froze on her face. Before she could speak, Serena had already turned to Alicia.

"Come with me to HR and get the records of all employees in the company. Then, go to the finance department and lock down all financial records.

"In half an hour, my assistant, Natalie, will bring in a team to audit the accounts and start the layoffs."

"Got it." Alicia nodded, grabbed a visitor pass from the front desk, and followed Serena upstairs.

Despite being a newcomer to the workforce, she executed her tasks swiftly and decisively.

Before the HR and finance departments even realized what was happening, they were already restricted from moving in and out freely, waiting for the handover process.

Half an hour later, Natalie arrived with an external HR and finance team to take full inventory of the company.

During this time, Shania repeatedly tried to approach Serena for a discussion. But Serena avoided her every time.

Instead, she had several senior executives' desks and office belongings sealed off. Then, alongside Natalie and Alicia, she went through every document, handing them over to a trusted external audit team for thorough investigation.

For two whole days, Amber Group underwent a complete purge.

When Shania finally saw her cousin's daughter again—the office was already packed with disgruntled employees crowding at the door, shouting in protest.

"You want us to leave? Fine! But compensate us!"

"We've been working here for years! You think you can just fire us without paying? It's not that simple!"

"We'll file for labor arbitration!"

Serena sat calmly at her desk, her gaze steady as she faced the angry crowd.

"Alicia, record the names of all employees eligible for compensation and process their severance packages according to company policy."

No one expected her to agree so readily.

The crowd went silent for a moment before erupting again—some still dissatisfied, some accepting the payout, stirring up another round of noise.

After some back-and-forth, most people eventually accepted a fair severance payment.

The corporate overhaul of Amber Group was a success. But Shania was anything but happy.

The moment those words left her mouth—Alicia couldn't hold back. "You didn't contribute much, but you sure have a big appetite."

She exchanged a look with Serena before flipping through some documents and handing them over.

Before Shania could react, Serena threw the files onto the desk beside her and started reading aloud.

"Two years ago, Amber Group bid on a land development project, expecting to generate tens of millions in profit. But due to your involvement with nepotistic hires, the bidding process was flawed.

"Not only did we lose the contract, but we were also blacklisted for a year—resulting in an estimated loss of 40 million dollars.

"One year ago, you embezzled corporate funds to buy a limited-edition sports car, causing a cash flow crisis in Amber Group.

"Jansen Group had to cover the shortfall—paying 8 million out of pocket to keep the company afloat. And that's not all—"

"Enough!" Shania was humiliated.

With so many scandals exposed, how could she still demand compensation?

All she could do was glare at Serena with hatred. "You ungrateful brat! How dare you treat me like this—wait till your father finds out!"
