Spoiled by the Silver Fox

Blaming Marilyn like this is like shoving all the responsibility on her. Once she's back home waiting to be investigated, they will accuse her at tomorrow's meeting. She's the newbie with no experience whatsoever. No sooner had they finished speaking than Martin marched in with four assistants.

Everyone knows Martin. He's the man at the heart of Skyline Corporation, the president's right-hand man.

Most of the president's business is run by him.

When he shows up, it's like the president himself has arrived!

Even the head of the finance department got up to greet him politely, "What brings you here, Martin?"

Martin smiled and replied, "Heard there was some trouble in finance. I brought a team to look into it."

"Jesus... Did this reach the president already?"

"We just found a few issues during our internal investigation..."

The department head wiped the sweat off his forehead; News travels fast in this company. We were planning to report after we figured it out. Didn't expect it to reach the president so quickly."Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

Martin replied casually, "So, you were planning to find a scapegoat, let her take the fall, and call it a day?"

And you chose the future mother-in-law of the president as your scapegoat?

Were they bored out of their minds?

The president had just asked about Mrs. Bishop's situation in the company, and trouble came knocking.

If Mrs. Bishop was offended, he wouldn't be off the hook either.

Good thing this came to light quickly, giving him time to handle it.

The department head was sweating bullets, forced a smile, "We... we didn't mean that. We're still investigating; we need to find the root of the problem before we report!"

"I doubt you'll find much. Luckily, my assistants are free today. They can help you out."

The assistants were already on the move.

One was a professional hacker who found some leads in just a few minutes.

"IP address was in The deputy director's office computer. This data was entered three days ago at half-past nine in the evening." Nina went pale instantly.

She was speechless.

The department head was so angry his hand was shaking, "Nina! I trusted you! How could you do something like this at work?"

Nina tried to explain, tears in her eyes, "I'm sorry... I didn't mean to. Everyone had left for the day, but that data was urgent. You asked me to finish it, so I stayed late... But my daughter was sick that day, running a high fever. I was distracted, didn't check after I finished, and just handed it in...

You know, my husband is disabled, my daughter is still young, I can't lose this job... My whole family depends on me."

"But you can't frame others! You've lost any sense of morality!"

"Marilyn, I'm really sorry... I was

wrong. I just saw that your life was better than mine. You drive an Audi to work, and your family seems to be doing well. Even if you lost this job, you'd still be fine. But if I lost my job, my whole family would be in trouble..."
