Chapter 34 The receptionist; whose name was Maureen looked at Darius again with a pleading gaze. S
he figured out that Darius was way higher than the manager herself in the social hierarchy therefore if
Darius forgave her rude behavior then the Manager would naturally drop it.
Unfortunately for her, Darius didn‘t give her the time of the day.
“I asked if what Mr. Reid here says is true Maureen?” the manager repeated loudly, narrowing her eyes
at Maureen.
“It was a misunderstanding Manager Elle. I didn‘t know that you were expecting a visitor. Please pardo
n my impudence!” Elle begged. She saw that Darius wasn‘t going to forgive her and neither was he goi
ng to plead her case to the Manager. The only option left for her was to plead for mercy herself.
“So it is true then.” Manager Elle said in a sad tone. It was no wonder Mr. Bruce was very angry at her.
The attitude that Maureen showed to Darius was not just unacceptable but also very unprofessional.
She sighed. It seemed that she had been very busy with other aspects of the residence that she had fo
rgotten to keep the attitudes of her employees in check.
“Maureen, I told you personally that as
a receptionist here that first impressions matters a lot didn‘t I?” Manager Elle asked in a lucid tone.
“Yes you did Manager Elle.” The receptionist as answered remorsefully as she could. She figured out th
at maybe if she showed how remorseful she was, the Manager was going to let her off the hook this tim
e.
“I see. I‘m glad that you admitted that I informed you of that particular detail.” The manager said.
“Because you have disobeyed that rule by being rude and disrespectful to Mr. Darius here, Miss Maure
en, you have just been fired.” The manager said in a cold tone.
Maureen felt
her whole world crashing down at that moment. She was unable to save herself from the consequence
s of her action.
It should be noted that any job in the Dragon Estate was a
job with very high pay compared to other places. The benefits that came with the job were also very luc
rative when compared to other places.
In Maureen‘s case, she wasn‘t just working in the Dragon Estate, but working in the Dragon Lord‘s Imp
erial Residence itself, the most expensive housing complex in the whole of Dragon Estate.
It was the dream job for her with an extremely high pay, feeding allowances and most importantly free
accommodation. The free accommodation was definitely the best part to Maureen as she was able to li
ve in the Dragon Lord‘s Imperial Residence, and although it was the staff quarters, it was still a very lux
urious place for someone of her social status to live.
That wasn‘t the only benefits she had. She had constantly bragged to her friends about her
working in the Dragon Lord‘s Imperial Residence, enjoying the looks of envy and admiration on their fa
ces whenever she mentioned it to them. It gave a false sense of superiority that she was better than he
r friends.
However that wasn‘t the case now. She was no longer an employee at the Dragon Lord‘s Imperial Resi
dence, meaning that she was stripped of all the benefits that came with being one,
A huge wave of regret washed over her as she stood motionless. If only she had been
polite to Darius, all this
wouldn‘t have happened. Perhaps she might have even gotten rewarded by the manager for treating h
er guest well. It was over for her now. She had nobody to blame for her predicament. She was the one
who brought this upon herself.
“I expect you to leave this place in the next 2 hours. That should be more than enough time for you to g
et your properties from the staff quarters and leave.” The manager continued in a cold tone.
“If you haven‘t left the premises after 2 hours then the consequences will be very severe.” The manage
r threatened.
Satisfied with the punishment she had meted out to Maureen, she turned to face Darius, and now no tr
aces of her cold attitude could be found.
“I‘m sorry you had to see that Mr. Reid, and I‘m sorry for her uncouth behavior towards you. It was defin
itely my fault. I assure you that I will take full responsibility for my employee‘s unprofessional behavior.”
Manager Elle said to Darius in a pleading tone.
Her heart was beating rapidly as she awaited a response from Darius. She had never met Darius befor
e so she didn‘t know if he would be satisfied with the dismissal of the rude receptionist or if her dismiss
al was not enough to quench his anger.
She had met several important people due to the nature of her job and she knew what kind of havoc th
ey could wreak when they were offended. She sincerely hoped that Darius wasn‘t one of them, otherwi
se there wouldn‘t be able to tell how far they had to go to pacify him.
Darius on the other hand didn‘t care about the dismissal of the receptionist. He was already used to bein
looked down upon by various people.
However, this did not mean that he was going to be merciful to Maureen. Frankly speaking, she deserve
own downfall. Everything she got was as a result of her own doing.
Darius sighed when he saw Manager Elle still bowing her head and waiting for a response from him.
“It‘s alright, Manager Elle. I just hope that you keep a closer watch on your employees so that such a thi
Manager Elle felt a huge sense of relief wash over her when she heard Darius‘ statement.
“Certainly Mr. Reid. I assure you that such a thing would never happen again!” Manager Elle declared w
Residence!
(That‘s good to hear Manager Elle.” Darius said. “Now that we‘ve got that out of the way, I think it‘s time
“Most definitely Mr. Reid.” The manager answered cheerily. “This way Mr. Reid.”
And with that statement, the manager led Darius out of the lobby and into a gold plated elevator.
