Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla and Damon) novel Chapter 1099

The once-bustling top floor of Nyce Tech was eerily quiet. Only a few secretaries remained at their desks.

Gabriel approached one of them with a scowl. "Where is everyone?"

The secretaries froze at the sound of Gabriel's voice.

After a brief moment, one of them looked up, confirming it was him, and quickly stood. "Good afternoon, Mr. Hackett."

"I asked you a question," Gabriel repeated, his tone sharp. "Where is everyone else? Why is it so empty here?"

The secretary stammered, "T-They've all resigned..."

She didn't dare mention that she and the others still present were planning to quit as soon as their work was handed off.

Gabriel's expression darkened. "Notify all shareholders to meet me in the conference room in 30 minutes."

"Y-Yes, sir..." The secretary hurried off.

Back in his office, Gabriel stared at the pile of untouched documents on his desk, his frustration mounting.

A bunch of useless slackers! They hadn't even tried to delegate tasks to other shareholders in his absence.

…

Half an hour later, the conference room was only half-full, a stark contrast to the usual crowded meetings.

Sitting at the head of the table, Gabriel scanned the room with a glower. "Where is everyone else? Are they all dead?"

One shareholder hesitantly replied, "Mr. Hackett, some haven't come to the office, and others have already sold their shares and are no longer part of Nyce Tech. The ones still here are present."
