Chapter: 213
There was a dedicated chat group for the Blakely Group employees, normally utilized for important announcements.
Joshua, one of Blakely's assistants, was in command of this group.
Tyrone was also a moderator of the chat, but he remained a silent observer.
Despite its numerous members and the presence of higher-ups, the chat group was typically silent, the employees too apprehensive to engage in banter.
Today, however, an unusual message arrived for all the employees.
Assuming Joshua had an important announcement, they opened it only to be taken aback.
The message was from Tyrone himself!
"The fifty-third guideline of the Blakely Group employee handbook. The establishment of a stringent work ethic and the maintenance of a positive attitude are expected. Casual chat, jest, and gossip about superiors are strictly prohibited during work hours. Any violation will result in a fine of ten percent of the offender's monthly salary for the first warning, and twenty percent for the second. Exceptional work performance could result in the cancellation of penalties, but a third violation will lead to dismissal."
It wasn't long before everyone had read the message.
Rumors had been circulating in the company for a while. Ever since Galilea visited Tyrone at the office, the gossip mill hadn't stopped.
Later, there were photos of Tyrone with Galilea, and then the focus shifted to Tyrone and Sabrina.
However, these rumors never reached Tyrone's ears.
Consequently, Tyrone had never concerned himself with such pettiness.
But today, he, who had always maintained silence in the group chat, chose to speak.
While he had merely reiterated the fifty-third rule of the company, no one dared ignore it.
The employees knew that Sabrina had just returned to work that day.
Tyrone's words seemed to dispel the rumors about her.
Sabrina too saw this message in the group chat.
Staring at her phone screen, Sabrina felt a wave of bewilderment.
She was reminded of a time shortly after her hiring, when she had gone to report to the CEO's office. Kylan was there, and she had addressed Tyrone by his first name.
