Chapter 1697 Suspension from Duty

Chapter 1697 Suspension from Duty

Huntington came to his senses, "Thank you..."

He stammered, "Thank you, Ms. Teeger."

Inside the office, Natalie sat in the executive chair, looking at Kensington. The atmosphere in the office was silent and somewhat oppressive. Kensington seemed unable to bear it any longer and quickly said, "Ms. Teeger, what happened tonight was indeed my fault, and I'm willing to accept any punishment. However, I've been completely loyal to Elysian Fields Nightclub and have put in a lot of work over these two years. Ms. Nicholson must have told you about it. I did make a mistake this time, but it's only natural - Ellington is my son..."

"I know Mr. Grimaldi is protective of his son. I'm giving you plenty of time to rest. Starting today, Mr. Grimaldi can take a good rest and have more time to educate his own son."

Kensington's face turned pale. This was a suspension.

He looked at Melody, hoping she could plead on his behalf, but Melody shook her head. Only then did Kensington realize the seriousness of the situation. "Ms. Teeger, I've been completely loyal to Elysian Fields Nightclub..."

"I can see your loyalty to Elysian Fields Nightclub and your management abilities. But you indulged Ellington, let him publicly slander Huntington and threaten Cordelia. If you can do it once, you can do it a second time. Ellington is your son, and relying on his father being the deputy manager here, he acts arrogantly and recklessly. He dared to assault someone and threaten a female employee here - how terrible is that! Don't you realize how serious this is!"

Kensington was left speechless.

After handling the matters at Elysian Fields Nightclub, Natalie had dinner with Melody. They ate the staff meal there. Melody apologized for what happened in the morning. Natalie knew it wasn't Melody's fault, though Melody felt there were problems with her management.

Natalie was very grateful to Melody. Without Melody's help back then, there wouldn't be the Elysian Fields Nightclub of today.

Time passed quickly, and Natalie's belly gradually grew larger.

When the weather got warmer, Adrian took her along with Rachel, Elmer, and a few others to Pearl Island.

It was now June.

Pearl Island had more tourists.

In the early morning, the beach had pleasant waves and a refreshing breeze. Rachel and Elmer were walking along the beach. "Compared to Redwood Isle, what do you think of this place?"

Both Pearl Island and Redwood Isle were known for producing pearls. The difference was that Pearl Island focused more on tourism development.

Elmer had grown up by the sea. Breathing in the sea breeze, he felt increasingly familiar with it. He held Rachel's hand. "This place is nice, the scenery is beautiful."

"Is it just the scenery that's beautiful?" Rachel knew that Elmer had been away from Redwood Isle for a while now. This was probably the longest time he'd spent on land, so he must miss home. Feeling the sea breeze, he must be feeling emotional.

"If you think this place is okay, we can stay here for a few more days."

"As long as I'm with you, I'm fine living anywhere." Elmer looked at Rachel very seriously and raised his hand to fix her hair that had been blown by the sea breeze.

"Elmer, I have something to tell you." Rachel seemed to have made a decision and took a deep breath.

"Hmm?"

"I'm pregnant." Rachel pressed her lips together and looked up at Elmer with bright eyes. She caught a glimpse of joy in his eyes, but soon that joy disappeared. Rachel felt a bit sad - wasn't he happy?

They were going to have their own child. Wasn't he looking forward to it?
