I've Been There Before

Chapter 299 Leaker

Ingemar was puzzled. Caden didn’t allow him to Grace’s apartment. Not only that, his family’s doctor became worried after giving Caden an injection.

Ingemar felt that Grace must know something.

However, when he called Grace, she seemed to be very angry. She kept implying him that he was “a playboy” and “teaching others bad things”.

Ingemar looked at the phone that was hung up by Grace and was even more confused.

“Playboy”? How strange. It wasn’t the first day that Grace knew he was a playboy.

Besides, what did it have to do with her?

She even said that he “taught others bad things” … To whom?

Ingemar thought about it for a long time, but he couldn’t think of the truth.

Grace hung up Ingemar’s phone and was still extremely angry.

That fool ... Rather than saying that he was naive, it was more accurate to describe him as a stupid guy. It was simply that his memories and knowledge had been refreshed.

How could that fool know those things?

Hot … An eight-year-old child would know that kind of thing?

If it wasn’t Ingemar, who else would have taught Caden!

As a result, Ingemar took the blame.

After she put down the phone, Vivian was knocking on the door.

“Find the leaker?”

Since it could not be publicized, she could only secretly search for omissions.

Because of it, the search went slowly.

Vivian shook her head worriedly. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

“There’s no need to investigate.”

“Miss Grace, why don’t you ask CFO directly?”

“I believe him. If he divulged the secret, he will be the first one to be thrown into prison. If he divulged the secret unintentionally, he may not know about it. Now there is no need to let down our old staff.”

Grace frowned and pondered for a while. “Well, ask the HR Department to send all the resumes of the employees of the Finance Department to my email address.”

“You want to find that leaker among so many employees yourself?

It’s like looking for a needle in a haystack. “

“That’s why I’m investigating the Finance Department first. Vivian, I can’t leave this time bomb in the James Group.”

“If you can’t find the leaker in the Finance Department, are you going to search the entire company? Do you know how many employees there are in our group?”

This problem can’t be solved by searching in this way.

Vivian did not expect that Grace would use such a stupid method.

“Forget it. I’ll handle it.” Vivian knew that Grace looked silent, but she was especially stubborn.

Late at night.

Grace stayed in the office, reading what Vivian had sent her.

A resume attracted her attention.

She looked carefully at the two-inch portrait of a girl’s resume. That girl had delicate facial features and fair skin, and she looked intelligent.

Grace picked up the phone and dialed a series of numbers. “Kim, come to the company.”

Kim obviously didn’t expect that Grace would make this request at this time. “Now?”

From his surprised voice, Grace could tell that Kim was reluctant to come.

The woman at the desk remained calm and certain. “Now.”

“But …”

Kim wanted to argue, but Grace hung up the phone.

She wasn’t worried that Kim wouldn’t come.

Sure enough, an hour later,

Kim came.

Kim was his forties. As a CFO of a listed company, he earned two million without bonus a year. He was considered as a successful man in the eyes of most people.

When he came, even though he didn’t say anything, a trace of reproach was revealed on his face.

When Grace noticed it, she stood up and poured a cup of tea for him.

It was so late. She called him out from his bed to the company with a phone call. It was indeed not a kind deed.

But ...

If her supposition was not wrong, Kim should be that unkind one.

Getting the water poured by his boss, no matter how angry he was, Kim could only let it go.

He picked up the tea and took a sip.

Grace turned the screen of the laptop on the desk to Kim.

“Look, do you know this person?”

Kim glanced at the resume on the screen. “She’s my assistant.”

“What else?”

When Kim heard this, he suddenly stood up from his seat and shouted angrily.

“Miss Grace, what do you mean?”

“Don’t be anxious.” Grace was still sitting behind the desk. Kim seemed to be thinking that he was insulted and became angry. Grace wasn’t frightened by Kim’s anger. She pointed to the photo on the profile.

“I’m not interested in the personal life of my employees.

I’m not interested in whether she is only your assistant.” If it didn’t interfere with the work, she had no interest in these hidden activities.

However, Kim clearly didn’t realize the seriousness of why she had called him today.

“Kim, how many years have you worked for the James Group?”

“Twenty years.”

“I just took over the group, but we actually met when my grandpa was still alive. Thus, we’ve known each other for twenty years, right?”

She pointed at the photo.

“Presumably, you know what happened to me.

Then do you know whether I know this girl?”

“You know her?”

Kim felt surprised.

“Yes, I do. When I came out of jail, I didn’t have a place to settle down. I went to the Royal Club. You must have known that.

One of the main reasons I stayed there was that they offered a dormitory.

She’s my first roommate since I got out of prison.”

Grace did not shy away from the disgraceful past in the eyes of others. There was no need to avoid what had happened. Whether it was good or bad, it would not disappear by being forgotten.

Kim was not stupid. Hearing this, he started to feel uneasy.

Grace noticed his dodging eyes, but she did not force him. She continued.

“She harmed me back then, but she was unlucky afterwards. She insists that I’m the one who got her in trouble.”

With that, she said.

“To put it bluntly, we have a grudge. More accurately, she thinks we have a grudge.”

Kim was even more restless. Cold sweat was dripping down his bald forehead.

Grace looked at Kim’s struggling expression and was somewhat disappointed.

‘He doesn’t want to speak anything?’

Just as she was about to put everything bluntly, Kim looked up at her and said in fear.

“Sorry, I really didn’t know there was something wrong with Ruby.

She seduced me. I’m a man, so I started a relationship with her.

But I didn’t mean to harm the James Group.

She lives in the suburbs. I have a small apartment nearby and I usually go there.

Sometimes I take work back there to do.

She’s been with me for two years. There’s nothing wrong till now.

Besides, she also works in our group and in the Finance Department, which is under my charge. She is both my trustful subordinate and my lover.

Miss Grace, I really didn’t know that she held such vicious intentions.”

No matter how inattentive and dull he was, he understood why Grace had asked him to drive to the company late tonight. He also realized who leaked the secrets of the group.
