The Reimbursement Chapter 10
After saying his piece, Lincoln turned on his heel, ignoring Jessica's desperate attempts to stop him.The entire company fell into dead silence.Jessica stood there trembling with rage, her face flushed a furious red."Damn it! Where's Alex?! I told you to transfer that money! Where the hell did it go?"I calmly opened the office automation system and pulled up the page showing my correspondence with Finance."Ms. Harrington, the morning after signing the contract, I submitted the transfer request to Finance, but Mr. Landon said it needed to be thoroughly reviewed before any payment could be made."For the next three days, I sent ten reminders a day. I clearly informed him of the deadline and the urgency. I didn't expect the money still wouldn't go through."Jessica was practically overheating with anger.Her chest heaved violently."Seymour! Where is that idiot? What the hell has he been doing?"Her roar shook the entire office.Seymour stumbled in, pale as a sheet."N-No

"I swear, you really have no self-awareness. To think you'd actually dare to come file a claim!" Seymour chided.I forced a look of urgency onto my face, my voice soft and pleading."Mr. Landon, this payment is really urgent. It has to be transferred within three days. This is my first order of the month. If it falls through, I won't even have money for food."Seymour looked amused.He did not even glance at the paperwork. Instead, he stared at me with open interest, as if enjoying a show."The sales champion is worried about such a tiny deal falling apart? I thought you were supposed to be quite impressive. What's wrong? Still ended up begging me, didn't you?"He toyed with the documents in his hand, tone dripping with mockery."How about this: I'll give you a chance to apologize. As long as you kneel in front of the entire company and beg me, I'll let it go. What do you say?"For a moment, I thought I misheard him.Who did he think he was? An emperor?Was he even worthy of

After hearing me out, Lincoln finally reined in his temper.As for the favor I asked, he agreed on the spot without hesitation.After hanging up, I let out a long, heavy breath.Just wait.I would make sure Seymour learned exactly what happened when he crossed the top salesperson.I held my patience for an entire month.During that time, I endured endless cold looks from coworkers. Most days, I practically tried to make myself invisible.Even when Seymour barged into the Sales Department several times, looking to pick a fight, I swallowed it all.It continued until Thursday, when Jessica stormed into Sales in a fury."What the hell are you people doing as sales reps? Have you even been maintaining your clients properly? That was a 30-million order! The factory has already finished production, and now the client's gone! The company fronted every cent of that 30 million! Can you take responsibility for this?"The entire room was silent, heads bowed.After venting, Jessica had

Whispers spread through the room.Countless unreadable glances landed on me, sharp and heavy, leaving me nowhere to hide. I wished the ground would open up and swallow me whole.Just then, Jessica suddenly shifted tone and announced loudly."Additionally, Mr. Landon has demonstrated responsibility and meticulous professionalism. He has acted in the company's best interest at every turn, even working overnight to prevent potential losses. "He is the well-deserved Star Employee of this month! On behalf of the company, I am awarding him a 3000-dollar bonus! Mr. Landon, please come up and share a few words. Everyone, let's give him a round of applause!"The room erupted.Thunderous applause filled the air.When I looked up, my eyes met Seymour's as he rose to his feet.He was smiling. But beneath that smile, the malice in his gaze made my skin crawl.I did not hear a word of his self-congratulatory speech. My mind was elsewhere.Maybe it was just paranoia, but throughout the e

Harold's furious voice exploded through the office like a thunderclap.Seymour stood frozen in place."You're a damn accountant! Instead of doing your job properly, you use that tiny bit of authority in your hands to make things difficult for colleagues? Look at what you've done. Do you even deserve this position? If you can do this job, then do it properly! If you can't, get the hell out!"Seymour shrank under the tirade, neck tucked in, not daring to utter a single word.That very afternoon, he returned to the Sales Department.His eyes were bloodshot.He stood in front of me, head lowered, voice barely louder than a mosquito."A-Alex, holding your reimbursement was my fault. I'm here to apologize. I'm sorry, but please at the end of the month, our Finance Department has to submit the financial statements. Could you show some mercy and hand over the order files?"I looked at him with a faint smile, finding the entire scene almost absurd."Oh? Don't worry, Mr. Landon. From no

"Alex! What exactly are you playing at? Every other sales team has already submitted their files. Yours is the only one missing! You said you needed to follow the process, and I agreed to all of it."But we're running out of time! I need a definite timeline from you today! If tax filing gets delayed because of your team, it won't just be me in trouble. You won't walk away unscathed either!"I wore an expression of helplessness but said nothing.At that moment, a colleague from the next cubicle could not hold back anymore and spoke up quietly."Alex isn't wrong, though. Isn't this exactly what Seymour from Finance has been doing? It's been over a month now. Alex still has a pile of reimbursements stuck in limbo. What now? Finance gets to 'be professional', but Sales can't follow our own rules?"Harold heard that and immediately understood what was going on.Without another word, he turned and walked out.Less than two minutes later, he came back, dragging Seymour by the arm and s
