"I understand." Daniel waved his hand. "As long as Leroy sticks to his story for now and claims that his email was
hacked, the relevant authorities won't have conclusive evidence that he definitely leaked the test questions. Just tell
him to relax for a few more days. I will have the legal department of Quimby Group help you investigate the truth."
The lawyer, who was delighted, thanked Daniel profusely before leaving.
Daniel leaned back in his chair, his brows furrowing. He had his suspicions about the person responsible, but... could
it really be her?
After all, she owed Leroy a great deal. Would she be so ruthless when it came to her mentor?
Amanda had to make significant effort to arrange an afternoon tea with Lily. She had learned from her previous
mistake, so she chose a recently-opened coffee shop with exceptional decor and a new-store discount this time.
Most importantly, the place was quiet.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe cafe was in a small white building near the edge of a forest, almost hidden amidst the trees. It exuded an
artistic ambiance, and Amanda was confident that Lily would appreciate it.
To make things even better, the universe seemed to be on her side that day. The whole cafe was empty, so they felt
like they had the place to themselves.
"Ms. Reyes!" As soon as they met, Amanda pushed a caramel macchiato toward Lily with a fawning smile. "I just
ordered this for you. I made sure the temperature and sweetness were to your taste. Try it!"
Lily smiled but didn't immediately reach for the coffee.
Amanda then presented a delicate little box.
"I picked this especially for you," she said, grinning. "I instantly fell in love with the design—it's elegant and simple,
just like you."
Lily examined the item. It was a platinum necklace—not extremely expensive, but certainly not cheap either.
Amanda had saved on their meeting location but splurged on the gift.
However, Lily had an extensive collection of fine jewelry. The necklace would seem rather ordinary in her jewelry
box.
"Ms. Winslade, you're being too generous," Lily said, closing the box and pushing it back. "I don't need any gifts
from you. No work, no pay, right?"
"Whoa, you're too modest, Ms. Reyes," Amanda said, her eyes wide with innocence. "How can this be 'no work'?
You've already promised me..."
"Oh, you mean Maisie?"
Amanda beamed and nodded.
"It's such a pity. I haven't been able to reach her in the past few days." Lily pretended to be disappointed. "It
appears that Daniel has hidden her away. No one can get in touch with her at all."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAmanda paused with an elated expression. It seemed that Maisie had been taken in for questioning as well!
Leroy had leaked the test questions, and Maisie, as the beneficiary, wouldn't be able to avoid the legal
consequences!
"Oh, Ms. Winslade." Lily went closer to Amanda. "Do you have any other way of getting in touch with Maisie? I can't
wait to watch her fall out with Daniel!"
"Ms. Reyes, to be honest..." Amanda responded with a smirk. "I'm afraid you won't be able to meet her anytime
soon."
"What?"
"She cheated in the exam, so she won't be able to escape the legal consequences!"
"Exam?" Lily's eyes narrowed. "How... do you know she cheated? Besides, when it comes to something like
cheating, there should be evidence, right?"
"Ms. Reyes, you shouldn't be asking about that," Amanda responded with a hint of caution. "Anyway, she's in serious
trouble this time, and I'm afraid not even Mr. Quimby will be able to save her!"
