?Chapter 443:
Cathy’s patience snapped, and she shouted, “Get moving, or do I have to do it myself?”
The security guards immediately stepped forward, gazing at Elena. “Please leave now!”
They were ready to enforce the order.
Elena flexed her wrist. It had been a while since she had to throw down. But just as she prepared to act, a deep, cold voice echoed from the entrance.
“Who dares to kick her out?”
All eyes turned to the door.
Wesley strode in, his expression as stern as a winter storm. Trailing behind him was another tall, striking man.
Cathy’s heart leaped at the sight of Wesley, but her expression froze when she recognized the man behind him.
There was one person who made Cathy tremble—her elder brother, Kason.
As they approached, Cathy dutifully greeted him, “Kason.”
Kason stood tall, his gaze briefly grazing over Elena beforending on Cathy.
His demeanor was calm, and he responded with a soft, “Hmm.”
Then, Kason positioned himself behind Wesley,psing into silence.
Wesley’s eyes, as cold as ice, scanned the scene. “What’s happening here?”
Now that Wesley had arrived, Charlette quickly filled him in on the unfolding drama. “Mr. Spencer, Miss Garrett is trying to fire Elena.”
Wesley’s piercing gaze swept over the crowd,pelling everyone to lower their heads and avoid his eyes. Kaya, in particr, kept her head down, silenced by his presence.
“Since when can outsiders fire Edgewing employees?” Wesley questioned.
Despite the air conditioning, the guards felt beads of sweat form on their brows.
“Mr. Spencer, it was Miss Garrett’s orders…” The guards hesitated, knowing better than to cross the daughter of the Garrett family since rumor had it that Cathy was Wesley’s future wife.
Wesley wasted no breath. “Collect your paycheck from finance. You’re no longer needed here.”

The guards’ faces drained of color.
Cathy pouted, her tone dripping with dissatisfaction. “Wesley, Elena is just an employee. Why are you so hesitant to let her go?”
Wesley’s deep-set eyes glinted as he cast a sidelong nce at Cathy, causing her to freeze, as if a predator had locked onto its prey.
Kason, who had been silent until now, finally spoke up. “Cathy, apologize.”
Cathy protested, “Kason, I’m not in the wrong. She’s just a nobody. Why should I say sorry for firing her—”
“Enough.” Kason’s voice was low yet carried an iron weight, making Cathy stiffen.
Kason nodded toward Elena. “I apologize, Miss Harper. Cathy has overstepped. We’lle by another day to make amends properly.”
“Kason!” Cathy stomped her foot in frustration. Why was her brother apologizing to someone she deemed insignificant? Did Elena even warrant such treatment?
