Boss Accused Me of Faking That I Have a Son & Got Me Arrested after I Asked For a Week off to Care For My Sick Kid

When Annie’s son had an illness, she decided to take a week off from her job. At the time of her return to the workplace, however, her supervisor has a law enforcement officer and a pair of handcuffs waiting for her.
You are aware of the fact that there are occasions when you believe that you would be beneficial to the organisation just because you have worked there for ten years?

It’s true. No.

It did not occur to me in any way.

Permit me to explain everything to you.

After ten years of service, I am currently employed by a corporation. Immediately after graduating from college, I began my career by working as an intern in marketing. I eventually worked my way up the corporate ladder, but the rate at which my compensation increased was extremely slow.

My kid, Kenny, who was five years old at the time, became really ill one day. His temperature was through the roof, and he was throwing up all the time. Any mother would be irritated by it, right?

I was unable to leave him at home with a babysitter since there was no way I could do that. In the event that it was necessary, I had to be present, keeping a close eye on him, and prepared to take him to the doctor.
Therefore, I made the decision to call my boss and relay the facts to him. Moreover, I had not utilised any of my leave for the year, so I was confident that it would not be a problem.

I walked away from my son as he was sleeping in his bed.

After the first ring, I greeted him with “Hi, Mr. Williams,” and he answered the phone. Because my son is ill, it is imperative that I be with him. In order to provide care for him, I am going to take the week off. I have not yet used upon any of my vacation time.”

Prior to his explosive outburst, there was a brief period of silence.

Suddenly, he yelled out, “Are you serious, Annie?” “You are abandoning me now, when we have our annual general meeting in two days? When is this going to happen? Yes, you are aware that I require the marketing reports.

My response was, “I’m sorry, Sir.” “However, I won’t be able to come in. As well as the reports are finished. I sent them to you by email the morning before yesterday.

Rather of making an effort to respond, he simply hung up the phone.

I didn’t give it too much thought because my supervisor was a brash individual who had a tendency to act in an impetuous and impolite manner.

After that, I focused all of my concentration on my child by preparing some soup for him at the same time.
After a week had passed, when Kenny had fully healed and was also back at school, I made my way into my office.

When I looked up, my boss was sitting in my chair, and he started slowly clapping his hands while wearing a creepy smile on his face.

“Annie,” he referred to her. “Welcome here again. I have something unexpected in store for you.

Handcuffs were already prepared when a uniformed cop entered the room long before I had even had a chance to react.

It was “Annie Mills,” he yelled out. “You have the right to remain silent…”

Despite the fact that my heart was racing and my body was feeling limp, he continued to read my rights.

“What is going on?” After a moment, I was suddenly unable to breathe.

The fact that you do not have a son is something that I have learned about you, Annie. Now, you are going to be punished for your actions. You did a good job, Annie, but you wound up getting caught in your lies.

While I was attempting to make sense of the situation, my mind was racing. My employer was talking about something that I had no understanding about. I couldn’t help but have a son. Due to the fact that my son’s father had left the moment he found out that we were expecting, I made the decision to raise him by myself.
I couldn’t help but wonder when things had gone so wrong as I was being led out of the office. I was being brought out of the building.

Sitting in the police car, I anxiously pinched my wrist to make sure that I was awake. I was a police officer.

Upon our arrival at the station, I was denied the opportunity to make a phone call, and the officer continued to give me a really unpleasant look.

After throwing me into a holding cell that smelled musty, the officer noticed that the walls were covered in brown mould. What should I do? I was at a loss. It would be impossible for anyone to know that I was present if I was denied a call. The neighbour who lived next door would watch Kenny after school until I arrived home. Kenny, on the other hand, had only me to worry about.
Another law enforcement officer passed by the holding cell after what seemed like hours had passed.
I yelled out, “Please,” as I made my way up to the bars. “I need to make my phone call.”

She said that she would, and then she took me to the ATM. My best buddy Mia was the one I called. Although I was aware that I would not be able to afford her services, she was the only person I had available to me. She was an attorney.

In a hurry, I spoke the word “Mia,” not knowing how much time I had left. “I have been taken into custody. I can’t function without you.”

Mia has arrived at the station, and they have granted her permission to visit me without delay.

At this point, the plot becomes more complicated.

I had no reservations about Mia taking on my case.

“There’s something shady going on here,” according to her.

During her conversation with a couple of the policemen, it goes without saying that a few of their voices were raised.

After some time, she was able to free me, and I went back to Kenny’s house. Following that, she conducted some digging.
It has been revealed that Mr. Williams was the mastermind behind everything. In order to get me arrested, he had paid off the police. Our corporate contracts stipulate that if an employee is arrested, suspected of involvement in any illegal behaviour, or involved in any criminal conduct at all, the contract is to be cancelled, and the company would collect whatever money was outstanding at the time of the termination.

For me, it was my pay that had not yet been paid as of yet.

“Are you sure?” I inquired of Mia when she arrived, and she divulged all of the information to me. Including emails sent by Mr. Williams to the officer concerned with the case.

In response, she murmured, “Yes,” as she helped herself to food. The deal is finalised at this point. His residence for the foreseeable future will be in the confines of the prison.

I cracked a grin.

Without collecting a single penny from me, this woman rescued me from incarceration without any remorse. I am also aware that Kenny and I will be obliged to her for the rest of our lives.
In an effort to avoid a lawsuit and preserve its reputation, the corporation offered me forty thousand dollars as a form of moral recompense and good faith, stating that Mr. Williams was acting on his own.

It was only for a few hours that I was held in a holding cell, but that was more than enough to make me feel terrified. Without Mia’s faith in the judicial system, I would still be waiting for some kind of explanation and justice. For this reason, I am thankful for Mia and her faith in the system.

Currently, I am working with Mia, attending to the marketing and public relations requirements of her company whenever they are required. The employment is secure, and I have a sense of security. First and foremost, I am able to provide for my son without being concerned about the company for which I work.
