Legal Question in Employment Law in California

Employment Termination

My husband and myself were employed by a mortgage loan company. My husband was a loan processor and i was a loan officer. After few months of employment with the company, my husband resigned and started working as a loan officer at a different mortgage loan company. Right after my husband resigned, my manager called me and said he will terminate me because my husband is a loan officer at a different mortgage loan corporation. Therefore, i can not be employed by them any more.

MY QUESTION IS THAT CAN MY EMPLOYER TERMINATE ME BECAUSE MY HUSBAND IS A LOAN OFFICER AT A DIFFERENT CORPORATION?
