Elena coldly snorted. "Plain nonsense."

Lally frowned, looking even unhappier now.

Everyone knew about the fight between the three of us today, so they knew that Elena was mad and found Lally

andto be an eyesore.

| gently sighed and said, "We can't find the equipment that was stolen from the institute in such a short period of

time. When will Grant Corporation's new customized equipment as well as the new technological equipment for

temporary replacement be ready? These things are of utmost importance to keep the project going." Keith

nodded. "The arrangements are already being made, so don’t worry, Mrs.

Gra—Ms. Lane.”

Gaily could not help but laugh and said in a slightly teasing tone, "You've already gotten used to calling her that,

huh?”

Keith smiled a little embarrassedly." Indeed."

| cleared my throat and brushed my nose with my hand, saying, "Also, I've been having doubts about the

burglary at the research institute. Gaily isn't the person in charge of activating and deactivating the infrared

identification system. That was the only tshe forgot to activate the infrared identification system, so how did

the criminal happen to coincidentally act a t that time? Moreover, the person in charge of the institute merely

went to have something to eat and would have cback in no tat all, so unless the criminal acted as soon

as Cally left, they would absolutely not have the tto move the equipment."

| continued after a pause, "There are three possibilities. Firstly, the criminal may be a n outsider who had his

eyes on the research institute since the morning, so he had been watching nearby. Secondly, this criminal may

be our employee, and they clearly knew that Cally had forgotten to activate the infrared identification system.

Thirdly, our employee may have tipped off the criminal."

"From what you're saying, you suspect that there's a traitor among us?"

Elena looked atand sneered. "I agree with what you said. After all, it's difficult to guard against internal

traitors. There's no better thing in this world than to get something worth a few hundred million dollars overnight

as well as a man.”

Her words sounded both sarcastic and mean.

Cally took a deep breath and could not hold back anymore. She reprimanded Elena, " Who are you referring to,

Elena Mandez? You'd better watch that mouth of yours."

"Who else?" Elena snickered. "Whoever assumes and gets offended, of course."

"You!" Cally smacked the table and stood u P

Her temper was quick to rise. | quickly held her back and said to Elena, "I don’t think it's necessary to bring your

personal grudges into this, Ms. Mandez. There's no need to speak so sarcastically about others too. We'll bear

the necessary consequences, but before that, we need to consider how to continue the work at hand.

Theo, who had been remaining silent the whole time, tossed the documents in his hands on the conference

table. He said indifferently, "Let's talk about the solution."

Suddenly, everyone turned to look at me, waiting for what | would say next.

| pursed my lips. "The project must go on, and the burglary report has to cto a conclusion as soon as

possible. | suggest w e start by investigating internally first. It's definitely no coincidence for the burglary t o be

done so quickly, coupled with the malfunctioning of the surveillance cameras."

Keith frowned. "But we've investigated all internal staff members of the research institute. None of them are

suspicious."

| chuckled. "Will a culprit allow themselves to be found so easily? If the investigation isn't done with an

inquisitive attitude, then it can be easy to overlook important things."

Keith thought about it and said, "I'll talk to the police later."

"So, there’s no concrete solution, then?" Elena snickered. "After all is said and done, there's still—"

At this moment, someone knocked on the door and interrupted Elena.

Keith frowned and went to open the conference room door.

Krayden stood outside the door. He rushed i n and said toin a panic, "Ms. Lane, was the previous lady your «

friend? Something happened to her. Do you want to go over and take a look?"
