Demanding Colleagues Had Themselves Served by a New Employee – and Were Shocked When They Discovered Her True Identity

“I don’t know what you’re talking about, ma’am,” she said.

But Jessica continued.

“You’ve used the money to finance your extravagant lifestyle. While you mocked and belittled me, I uncovered your fraud.”

The murmuring in the crowd grew louder as the significance of Jessica’s words became clear. Her husband took the microphone again, his voice firm.

“Melissa, I’m sorry, but you’re fired. And we will take legal action against you, because this is unacceptable.”

Melissa’s eyes filled with tears, and she fled the ballroom, humiliated.

“So please, folks,” Michael said. “Enjoy the rest of the evening!”

Jessica continued through the crowd, greeting people and watching as they suddenly respected her.

“I’m so sorry I had to play this role,” Linda approached Jessica. “We had no idea who you really are.”

Jessica smiled, and a sense of satisfaction came over her.

“It’s not about who I am. It’s about how you treat people. Don’t forget that.”

Later in the evening, as the ball continued and the food and alcohol flowed freely, Jessica and Michael found a quiet corner to talk.

“Are you okay?” Michael asked with concerned eyes.

“Yes, I’m fine. It was difficult, but it was necessary. We have to protect this company, it’s our legacy, honey,” she said.

“I’m so proud of you,” Michael told her.

Jessica looked around the ballroom and felt fulfilled. She had not only protected her company but also exposed the true nature of those who had wronged her.
