The Confession
The employees behind me fell silent and stared at me in disbelief.
Luca's authorization was genuine, they would have to leave
Estepped forward, glanced at the document in his hand, and scoffed. "Is this supposed to be a signature?"
"Leonard was unconscious at the time How do we know how you pot that signature? Was there a lawyer present? could the medical staff restity?
"Leonard explicitly said that there was no authorization. How dare you forge the documents?"!
Since he said he didn't resember, took it that he simply didn't know.
Even the signature were his, it wouldn't be valid under such conditions when he was not fully aware
new that, and Luca krwitte
Heglared at me with resentment. "This is Leonard's signature. Do you think I'd risk breaking the law? Since you say he's awake, I'll go confront him. We're leaving!
He managed to replace an excuse to save himself from the embarrassment and actually left with his own people.
As Bob passed by, he tried to bump into me but was pushed aside by Emma.
"Dispusting old fool," she muttered under her breath, and I quickly pulled her aside.
she would continue working at Harmon Group, so it was best not to provoke such small-
minded people. With the immediate crisis averted, I sent everyone back to their duties and started on a new day of work. We had to compensate the families of the deceased, sue Hatchworks, and manage public opinion, Especially since Luca had created chaos in the com "Eva, do you want to return to the Hamon realence? I can send someone to pick you up!
"Tan, I'll stay at a nearby hotel for a while. There's too much work to do."
He didn't press further.
Given that Leonard and I were getting a divorce, it was better for us to see each other as little as possible and avoid any further contact with the Hannon family
Emma stayed with me every day. She was concerned about my health, and even met into the hotel to keep me company.
It might have been a temporary surge of energy, but working on the projects actually improved my condition and appetite.
I was overjoyed especially when we secured the design bid for the overpass project.
In fact, this project had been under review by Harmon Group for several months now.
The designs submitted earlier didn't meet the requirements, so they were repeatedly sent back fros
Lately, my sleep had been light, so I had been working on revising the proposal during my spare time. By involving both Department One and Two, the project has started to come together smoothly.
After winning the bid, Emma wanted to celebrate with me, buttshook my ha
"Let's skip the celebration for now and put in some extra hours. They still need a detailed summary of the proposal 11
"It's okay to take a break. The bid was successful treating you to abarbecue tonight!"
Theother colleagues had already left, so she quickly pulled me out as well.
Before lewing, I set up my laptop to automatically activate the camera if anyone tried to input the password. After the last incident, wasn't about to make the same mistake again. Justas Emma and I were ordering our meal, my phone alerted me that someone was trying to Tkept all the critical data on that laptop, and it was locked in a drawer. How could someone get past in?
When I checked the app, I saw Memphis in front of my laptop, talking on the phone with someone
"past remote in and bypass the password. I paid you live thousand; what are you doing? Hurry up, someone's coming back soon! Useless!!
He inserted something into the computer, and it wasn't long before he managed to get into my system
I didn't make a buss, contacted Leonard's bodyguards and headed back to the company with Emni
By the time theed, Memphis was already restrained
He glared at me. "Ms. Green, what's the meaning of this? I just came back to get some documents."
"You came back to my office for documents? That's impressive
The bodyguards handed me a small device. "Signal jammer."
Tlooked at Memphis with a smirk. "You're well prepared, huh? How long do you think you'd be in jail reported you to the pobce
He was the type who cared deeply about his reputation. He appeared calm, but he was always eager to compete.
Initially, he organized the design for the everpass project, but his lack of capability meant he couldn't secure it. Now that that succeeded, he clearly couldn't accept it and planned to sabotage it at the last moment
Perhaps it wasn't entirely his idea to sabotage, some others might not want Harmon Group to thrive.
He scoffed." you're so capable, go ahead and call the police. I doubt they'll replace any evidence. Your data in't missing."
I nodded it was technically an attempted crime. My system had been upgraded with new defenses, so he won't be able to access the data or designs in such a short time.

But seeing his smug expression, I couldn't help but laugh.
""Memphis, don't think no one knows about your involvement with Tom."
His eyes widened in disbelief.
"What... What do you know?"
I placed the signal jammer aside and looked at him coldly. "Now's the time to come clean. You might still have a chance to save yourse
