Alarmed that things weren’t going as she hoped it would, Maya spoke, “Dominic, this issue has nothingto do with that demolition project. I’m positive.”

Dominic’s eyes slightly, narrowed. “How did you know?”

Her expression turned awkward. “Because those residents are people from the lower class. How arethey able to perform such things? You’re overthinking it.”

The mention of social class added grimness to his tone. “The lower class? Have you forgotten

where you came from?*

There was a huge shift in her expression. She quickly said, “This is a different matter. Leave this issueto me. I won’t let you down.”

He was smart enough to grow suspicious about it having something to do with the demolition.

After all, Mia wouldn’t hack into the company’s system without a solid reason. He had faith in hercharacter.

Right then, someone from the Technical Department shrieked, “Mr. Lane, that hacker hacked into oursystem again. He emailed a voice recording this time.”

Surprised, Dominic ordered, “Let’s hear what it says.”

Meanwhile, Maya had a bad feeling about this.

Could it be the conversation she shared with Mia at the waiting area?

Did Mia hire someone to do all this?

Maya overlooked a possibility–Mia might not have the capability to hack, but she could replace someoneelse to do so!

Someone played the recording, which revealed a conversation between two women. It was Maya andMia’s conversation earlier.

Maya’s face fell and she jumped to deny it, “Dominic, this is not my voice. It’s phishing!”

Dominic frowned at Maya’s haughty attitude toward Mia.

He looked at Maya before berating her. “Do you take me for a fool? I’m smart enough to tell that you’relying. What do you mean by that? You stopped the compensation procedure? How dare you, MayaLane!*

Finally, he knew the whole story of the situation.

He glared at Randy. “Speak up! If you don’t give me an explanation, all of you will be fired!”

Dominic’s assistant read the room and urged the others to leave the office.

Randy and Maya stood at their places. She gulped. “Dominic, we’re just following the procedures. Thatfamily hasn’t received the compensation because some of the documents weren’t aligned. We needthem to hand over the remaining files.”

Dominic read the document before throwing it in her face. He yelled, “What’s not aligned? Tell me, whatis not aligned?”

He asked someone to prepare Mia’s documents, so there shouldn’t be any problem.

Maya was baffled for a moment before leveling with him, “I have beef with her, Dominic. That’s why I’mpicking on her. Don’t intervene. I’ll take care of it.”

Beef?

He chuckled coldly before instructing Randy. “Hand in your resignation letter to the Human ResourcesDepartment. If you don’t want to be held accountable for this, better apologize to that resident.Otherwise, a lawyer’s letter will be coming for you.”

Randy immediately looked at Maya. “Ms. Lane, I was simply following your orders. You have to explaineverything to Mr. Lane! I have nothing to do with this!”

At this stage, the only person he could count on was Maya.
