Chapter 214
Dwayne didn’t take Alice back to the city.
Alice knew this was one of his punishments-she had done much worse to him at that time.
Dwayne really held a grudge, but now that everything was out in the open, Alice felt much more at ease.
If she had a boss who hated her yet never showed it on the surface, her days would definitely be tough.
But she had no choice back then. She was about to leave the Johnson Group, and she didn’t want to just let the last contract go.
However, she hadn’t received the bonus of it and just thinking about it made her a bit frustrated.
She needed money now, but it seemed like the Johnson Group hadn’t given her several batches of bonuses
Looking at the way back, Alice gritted her teeth and called a ride hailing service
She should have driven here herself.
Dwayne probably feared she would escape, so he had her come to the company early in the morning, likely planning for her to go
back alone or be taken back by Michael.
Sitting in the ride-hailing car, Alice thought for a moment and sent a WhatsApp message to Ava. (Has this quarter’s bonus been
calculated p>
The secretarial department had many types of bonuses, and Alice used to handle them all by herself.
Now that she was gone, Winter was probably too busy, so Ava had to take over.
And today happened to be the day for bonuses to be distributed.
The Johnson Group’s bonuses and basic salaries were not issued together; the secretarial department usually got theirs in the last
two days of the month.
Ava didn’t reply but quickly sent her a screenshot, showing Alice’s bonus for the last quarter.
Seeing that several bonuses were missing, Alice got a bit angry.
Her fingers quickly typed on the screen, but she ended up deleting the message.
She just replied, [Thank you p>
She knew Ava was bending the rules a bit by doing this since she was no longer with the Johnson Group and shouldn’t know the
details of the salary sheet.

But she was still a bit annoyed; tens of thousands of dollars in bonuses were no small amount.
Thinking about Michael’s gritted teeth today, she gave up.
Going to argue with Michael now would be like walking into a trap. She touched her bitten collarbone; she didn’t want to have any
more entanglements with him.
Alice went straight to the hospital but didn’t visit Ivy first; she went to the surgery department.
Her skin was a bit sunburned from jet skiing today, and there were a few bruises on her legs that looked a bit scary.
The doctor prescribed her some medication, and Alice started applying it in the hospital corridor.
A text message notification sounded, and Alice instinctively picked up her phone, feeling a bit dazed.
Her bonus had increased by $300,000. What was going on?
She double-checked the sheet Ava had sent and found something was indeed off.
If the company was short such a large amount, they would definitely come after her.
Alice thought for a moment and walked to the end of the corridor to call the finance department. “Dahlia, this is Alice. I just saw the company’s transfer. Did my bonus get overpaid p>
“How much is it?” Dahila replied.
Alice took a deep breath. $300,000 p>
“What?” Dahila was startled. “Ms. Baker, don’t hang up. Let me check p>
Alice heard the sound of keyboard typing and a calculator on the other end.
Dahila must have double-checked several times. A few minutes later, she spoke, ‘Ms. Baker, I checked. It’s correct. The bonus for the last collaboration with Luminary Holdings Ltd was also given to you p>
