Chapter 1114: He Fired Everybody
At the Mo Mansion, Mo Yixuan fired all the employees who worked for the Mo family, including the driver, security guards, and all the other employees. He generously gave them $150,000 to compensate them for losing their roles and this was equivalent to their annual salary.
His parents have pa.s.sed away and he lost custody of his son, so he was the only person left in the huge Mo mansion. He didn’t know what was the point in employing so many people and besides, he didn’t intend to stay here much longer.
The employees were all very reluctant to leave, especially Wu Xiaomin who had worked for the Mo family for nine years. This was practically her second home and this was home was now being taken from her.
Mo Yixuan stuck both hands in his pockets and stood in front of the gates with a grim expression. His eyes were cold and devoid of any expression, so no one knew what he was thinking about.
He stared as everyone he knew walked out of the house with their luggage in tow and stared intently at them.
“Mr. Mo, I’ll be leaving now,” a chef who had worked for the Mo family for more than four years, Aunty Chen, bid farewell to Mo Yixuan.
Mo Yixuan merely acknowledged her gesture with a nod but he didn’t say anything else.
The last people out of the door were Wu Xiaomin and Lin Yanyan. They had been hired by He Xiyan in the past and now, they were leaving together.
They each carried a huge backpack and a large piece of luggage. The two girls weren’t very strong, so they walked slowly because of their heavy burdens.
They both stopped when they reached the gate and looked at Mo Yixuan.
“Sir, please take care,’ Wu Xiaomin said. She couldn’t control her emotions and burst into tears.
Mo Yixuan took a deep breath but he merely nodded without saying anything else.
Then, he reached out to take their luggage and placed their luggage in the boot of his car.
“I’ll give you a ride to the airport,” he said gravely.
It was natural for humans to grow attached to others after spending some time in each other’s company and this applied to bosses and subordinates, employers and employees. Mo Yixuan was grateful for how meticulously they cared for his mother when his mother was hospitalized.
He didn’t have anything else to say to them but he hoped that they would live well in the future.
“Sir, please remember not to drink so much alcohol. It isn’t good for your liver,” Lin Yanyan reminded him.
The Mo family had treated them kindly and other than the time when Xia Yuwei lived in the house and ordered them around, they led relatively comfortable lives at the Mo mansion. They had a high salary and they could rest on public holidays or have time off in lieu. They knew that this was not the practice in other families.
Mo Yixuan nodded and said, “Thanks.”
A trace of warmth crept into his cold and hardened heart because at least there was someone out there in the world who was concerned about his health.
“We’ll get going now. Sir… goodbye,”
The two girls waved at Mo Yixuan and bade him farewell after they arrived at the airport. They were also bidding farewell to the nine years they spent at the Mo mansion.
They had given their precious youth to the Mo family over the past nine years.
Mo Yixuan’s lips curved into a small smile. He waved at the two girls and said goodbye.
Then, he turned around and drove towards his two-bedroom apartment located at 27 Yangguang Road which was near his office.
The Mo mansion would be completely vacant from this day on. There wouldn’t be any raised voices nor children laughter any longer. All that was left was infinite silence.
