Who the hell is Alex exactly, anyway?
Isn't he just a live-in son-in-law in the Jennings family?
Why would Mr. Jones call him 'Mr. Jefferson'?
Scratching their heads, Landon and Whitney had not the faintest idea how Alex knew a big shot like Stefan Jones or how the latter was looking out for him.
"I'm officially notifying you now. Warren Scrolls, you're fired!"
It felt like the sky had fallen on Warren.
He sold his "soul" to the Joneses to rise quickly through the ranks.
However, his entire career crumbled just because he abused his authority to get his revenge on Alex.

"According to the contract you've signed with the company, you have jeopardized the company's interests. We will sue you and you'll compensate for our loss of five million. You can be damn sure that you'll be getting court summons!" continued Stefan in a stern tone.
Warren's mind went blank. He had no idea how he could manage a compensation of that amount.
He quickly knelt in front of Stefan as he begged in snot and tears, "I know it's my fault and I'm truly sorry! Please forgive me, Mr. Jones! I promise you I'll never make another stupid mistake like this again!" Stefan was unmoved. "I'll apologize to Alex and his cousin right away and ask for their forgiveness. Please give me another chance, Mr. Jones!"
"Apologize?"
Stefan scoffed, "Have you looked into the mirror lately? Do you have any idea who Mr. Jefferson is? What makes you think you're worthy to make an apology to him?"
Stefan gave Warren another kick before ordering his assistant, "Send the message. Warren Scrolls have offended Mr. Jefferson and humiliated the Jones family. From now on, he's banned from our family. I want him to be jobless and homeless. He'll be a beggar in Nebula City!"
"Yes, Sir!" responded the assistant solemnly.
Warren was utterly crushed.
He's driving me to the corner and giving me no way out!
The Jones family asked their employees to sign unreasonable contracts so that it would be easier to control them and breed loyalty. The contracts were pretty similar to those found in the entertainment industry, which required the signers to sell their "soul" to the company.
After signing the contracts, with decent performance, the employees would gain the Jones family's trust and promote to management.
However, they were bound to the contract and they would have to follow the Jones family's orders for the

rest of their life.
The Joneses could easily ban any of them any time.

On the other hand, as long as they remained loyal to the Joneses, they would receive benefits that others could only hope to receive.
As in Warren's case, he had been working hard ever since he signed the contract. He performed well and was promoted to manage a branch office in a short time. The Jones family obviously trusted and valued him.
But now that he had offended Alex, who Stefan had worked so hard to please, Stefan could easily ruin him with a single command. Warren could never start over again.
He continued to kneel in front of Stefan and beg for mercy. "I'm really sorry, Mr. Jones! Please consider all the hard work I've done for the company over the years and forgive me! I'll ask for Alex's and his cousin's forgiveness. I'll do whatever they ask of me as long as they're willing to forgive me. Even if they ask me to eat crap, I'll it!"
"Get lost! Don't you disgust Mr. Jefferson with your pitiful apology! Someone as god-like as Mr. Jefferson is not to be tainted with your foul presence." Stefan gave Warren another good kick. Suddenly, his focus shifted to Landon and Whitney, who looked stunned with fear. "Who are you? Are you Warren's accomplices?"
"No, no, no. We don't even know him!" Landon and Whitney were quick to distance themselves after witnessing his misery.
"They're the ones who suggested that I reject Rose Grayson! It was them, Mr. Jones!" Warren suddenly pointed at Landon and Whitney.
