Chapter 513 - Meeting (1/2)
This incident made Anya even more unwilling to have a relationship with the Atmajaya Family.
If Aiden was this bad, Anya wanted to escape even more.
She would try to be free from the work contract without breaking it. Where could she get the money to pay the penalty?
Early in the morning, Anya finally fell asleep exhausted.
Meanwhile, Aiden's car stopped not far from Diana's villa. He remained there until Anya's room lights were finally turned off.
…
Three days later, Anya got a call from Harris, asking her to return to Iris on Monday.
Anya gritted her teeth in fury. She was really annoyed with the Atmajaya family and also Harris. She just came back to Indonesia and felt jet lagged, but these people had sent her back to work.
”Harris, I want to rest for a bit. I have personal matters to take care of. I don't think I can go back to work for a while,” Anya said as patiently as possible.
”Madam, if you wish to ask for leave, you must have Mr. Aiden's approval. If not, your salary will be reduced,” Harris replied.
”Harris, I don't want to go back to Iris. Can I terminate my previous work contract?” Anya asked.
”If you want to terminate the contract, I will ask the company lawyer to contact you and go through the procedure. Because if it's Madame who wants to end the contract unilaterally, you have to pay a penalty fee,” Harris spoke in his business manner.
”Why do I have to pay a penalty fee when I file a contract termination?” Anya was worried hearing that.
”We have the right to refuse your application for termination of the contract. So, if you don't want to come back, you have to pay a penalty according to the contract stated. In order to develop Madame's talent, Master has bought a Rose Scent from Iris and turned it into yours, Iris. The mall owned by Atmajaya Group always provides free advertising and promotions for Iris and the investment that Mr. Aiden has given you is incalculable. The contract clearly states that you have to pay three times the money that Atmajaya Group spends to train you,” Harris said from the telephone.
Anya took a deep breath. She couldn't deny what Harris said.
”Harris, Aiden and I are not strangers. We used to be husband and wife. Can you ask him to reduce the penalty fee?” Anya tried to soften her voice.
”Madame, you already know you don't want to go back to work at Iris. If you insist on terminating your employment contract, you have to pay the triple fee stated in the contract. You only need to pay the training fee that Atmajaya Group has invested in you in the amount of 10 billion,” Harris said seriously.
Anya stared at her cellphone in surprise. Was her phone's speaker damaged? Or did she hear wrong?
Harris was talking about 10 billion like he was talking about 100 thousand.
”What did you say just now? Sorry I didn't hear it clearly.” Anya asked him again, hoping she had heard wrongly. This time she would listen carefully.
”Madame, you have to pay 10 billion,” Harris repeated once again.
”10 billion? Why don't you just take all my money? You really like to cheat like this, right?” Anya felt so angry when she heard this.
10 billion. They really wanted to strangle her.
The work contract would expire in one year. They didn't give her a salary, but asked her to compensate for 10 billion. Why?
”Our lawyers calculate the estimated numbers, not me. If you have any objection, you can come to the office and I will arrange for you to meet with our lawyers and discuss it in person,” Harris said.
”I want to meet Aiden,” was all Anya could think of.
She didn't want to talk to a lawyer. How could she possibly win when she talked to a lawyer?
”When do you wish to meet with him? I need to make an appointment for it,” Harris' lips slightly showed a faint smile. Only halfway left to achieve his goal.
”The sooner the better. Look at Aiden's schedule, when can he see me?” Anya really wanted to slap herself. How many times had she been fooled by a contract like this?
How could she be so stupid!
What made her even more angry was Harris did it all!
First of all, Harris tricked her about her garden guarantee contract.
Now, Harris tricked her with a work contract.
