Chapter 62 Life and Death Situation 

Jessica greeted them with a warm smile, jokingly, “What’s up, you two?” 

“If we really had something going on, would you still be smiling so cheerfully? Daniel responded, somewhat puzzled. It seemed Jessica suddenly thought of something, and her jealousy inexplicably flared up. 

“What business could you possibly have together?” demanded Jessica, her face darkening as she chastised Brittany, “Daniel just joined the company, so he might be unaware of our rules, but you’ve been here longer. Don’t you know? TMO forbids dating between colleagues, unless one of you resigns!” 

Brittany was stunned. After fully grasping Jessica’s insinuation, she felt deeply insulted. 

“Jessica! Where did your mind go? How could I possibly have anything to do with this loser? A country bumpkin like him–if even the women from the countryside who’ve never seen the world might not fancy him–how could I be interested? 

He’s a waste of space–the idea of me falling for him? Only if I’ve turned into an idiot myself! No woman in her right mind could fall for him–he doesn’t even deserve a glance from me!” 

In her rush to insult Daniel, Brittany failed to notice Jessica’s already thunderous expression becoming 

ever more severe.. 

“Shut your mouth! Insulting a colleague breaches our code of conduct! I’m docking your entire bonus for this month as a minor punishment!” 

“Jessica, I…” 

“What? You’re questioning my decision?” 

“No… I’m not!” 

Brittany dare not refute; no one at TMO would dare to disrespect Jessica. 

She felt Daniel had wronged her yet again, her inner turmoil boiling with fury; she had to get rid of him, immediately, right now! As long as Daniel remained, she’d keep facing Jessica’s punitive measures–all because of him. 

Brittany swiftly put on a placating smile and addressed Jessica, “Jessica, it’s Daniel who asked me to come to your office; he says he needs to speak with you.” 

Jessica turned to Daniel, speaking curtly, “What is it?” 

“I’m resigning.” Daniel handed over his resignation letter. 

“Resign? Who allowed you to resign?” Jessica slammed the resignation letter on the desk, shouting, “Get out! Both of you, get out of my sight and don’t bother me!” 

Jessica hadn’t even glanced at the resignation? This shocked Brittany, intensifying her jealousy about Jessica’s attitude towards Daniel. Today, she must make him leave TMO. 

Chapter 62 Life and Death Situation 

2/2 

“Jessica, I think you should read this idiot’s resignation letter before making any decisions. It’s not just about him; it concerns the very life and death of TMO!” 

“The life and death of TMO? What are you two up to?” 

Curiously, Jessica picked up the resignation letter and began to read. After flipping through a few pages. and casting a cursory glance, she quickly understood. 

This resignation letter was definitely not written by Daniel; It had to be Brittany’s handiwork. The style and format were all Brittany’s signature approaches. 

According to the letter’s content, Daniel was portrayed as the scum of the earth, responsible for all manner of evil deeds–certainly not someone suitable for employment at TMO.
