Chapter 2 Jaxon was MIA all morning . Wren must've gotten bored gaming in the executive suite . She wandered back out like she owned the place . First she'd mess with someone's design mockups they'd been working on all morning . Then she'd randomly hit keys on people's computers , screwing up their spreadsheets . Everyone was pissed but couldn't say shit - they'd just freeze when she got close , then frantically fix whatever she broke after she moved on . Then she drifted over to the water cooler . Probably thirsty again , she grabbed a paper cup to fill up . Whether she's just clumsy AF or doing it on purpose , I couldn't tell . Her hand jerked . A full cup of water went flying in a perfect arc , splashing all over the wall next to the cooler . Right where the main electrical panel was . There was this loud " POP ! " with sparks shooting everywhere . Every light in the office died . All the computer monitors went black at once . A few seconds later , the whole place erupted with screams and " WHAT THE FUCK ! " " My code ! I've been coding all morning ! It's not saved ! " " My Photoshop files ! The client's been blowing up my phone and I was almost done ! " " My quarterly reports ! They're due at 2 ! I'm so screwed ! " The IT manager came flying out of his office . He saw Wren standing there looking all innocent after causing this disaster , and his face went dark . His mouth opened and closed , fists clenched , but he swallowed whatever he was about to say . 10:25 Who Needs a Divorce Lawyer When You OWN the Company ? Honey , You Are FIRED ! 0.7 % Chapter 2 Wren actually spoke first , voice all whiny and victimized . " Ugh , what's happening ? " " This electrical stuff is like , total garbage . A tiny bit of water and it breaks ? Why does our company buy such cheap crap ? " The nerve of this chick blaming everyone else was honestly next level . The facilities manager came rushing over . He looked at the smoking , fried electrical panel , then at Wren . Immediately switched to this pathetic ass - kissing mode . " Wren , you're not hurt , are you ? Did the sparks scare you ? " " This totally isn't your fault - the wiring's probably old . We'll get it fixed ASAP , install a new waterproof system ! " " You go chill in the office , we'll handle all this . " Wren pouted , looking unsatisfied , but didn't push it . She headed back to Jaxon's corner office . The facilities guy finally wiped the sweat off his forehead and started barking orders at IT . When he walked past my temporary desk , I stopped him . " Does this kind of thing happen a lot ? " The manager looked at me , recognized I was from corporate , and his expression went bitter . He pulled me into the stairwell and lowered his voice . " You're the auditor , right ? I probably shouldn't be running my mouth , but after today ... " He sighed heavily . " Real talk , she's Jaxon's princess . We can't touch her . " " Today Jaxon's in Chicago for client meetings , so nobody can babysit her . " " When Jaxon's around , at least he keeps her locked in his office playing mobile games ... " His face showed pure defeat . " Last month , she had another ' oopsie ' - knocked over her Frappuccino . " " It went straight into our main server . " 10:26 Who Needs a Divorce Lawyer When You OWN the Company ?

" " What happened then ? " I asked . " Jaxon blamed IT for ' inadequate safety protocols ' and docked everyone's quarterly bonuses . " " Said it would ' teach us responsibility . " " My stomach kept dropping . So , this is Jaxon's leadership style ? Let some airhead wreck the company while hardworking people pay for her stupidity . Jaxon , you're really something special . Just then , the executive office door opened . Wren poked her head out and called to the dark office . " Ugh , I'm so bored ! When's the WiFi coming back ? ... Oh no ! My phone's at like 10 % ! ... Are there any snacks in the break room ? " Nobody answered . The entire office was dead silent , thick with frustration . Chapter 3 :
