With her salary and position in the Thompson Group, firing her would result in a considerable compensation payout.
But leaving the Thompson Group, the most important thing wasn't the money, but that she would no longer have the opportunity to interact with Daniel Thompson.
Daniel Thompson had a driver for all his trips, and it was difficult to see him unless you were collaborating with him or held a senior position within the company.
Thinking of her efforts being wasted, she sent a distressed message to Phoebe: Mr. Thompson, it's not that I don't want to come out, but I can't open the door.
The excuse was far-fetched, it just depended on whether or not Daniel Thompson would believe it.
Just after Phoebe left, Daniel Thompson didn't dare to raise his head, fearing Amanda Leaford would be angry.
