Chapter 1609

When he entered the room and looked at the crowd, Keith was momentarily embarrassed. His smile faded.

"Sorry, Mr. Grant. I'll cback later." Realizing that he had cin at the wrong time, he turned around and

prepared to leave.

| immediately called out to him, "It's okay, Keith. | was just talking to Mr. Grant. That's pretty much it for tonight.

It's tfor you guys to get srest too."

| looked at Theo again, and although he had not expressed approval earlier, his gaze had softened.

With Ruby standing here all the tand Theo wanting to get rid of her, surely he would agree to my proposal as

well.

"Yes, Madam," Keith replied respectfully. He stepped forward and prepared to hand over the documents to Theo.

"Why would you have a backup?" Ruby's sudden questioning caused everyone to stare.

| immediately spoke up, "Didn't you just say that Theo gave this information to Keith for safekeeping? Since Keith

is responsible for the management of this information, isn't it normal for him to have a backup?"

| said and looked at Ruby, wanting to hear how she could make a reasonable explanation for her sudden question

just now.

Ruby was slightly stunned. Then, she smiled and continued, "Mrs. Grant, don't misunderstand. What | mean is

that we had just searched through the office computer and couldn't find any backup. With this sudden copy

coming out, I'm just a little curious about its origin."

After that, she looked at Theo again. Her eyes were a lot calmer than just now. "The company has rules saying

that for class-two confidential documents and above, not even employees themselves are allowed to keep a

backup. Otherwise, it's easy to cause misunderstandings, right?"

Hmph. | sneered in my heart. This was her reasoning, huh? However, | could not deny it.

The company did have such a rule.

Important confidential documents could only be kept in the office computer and could not be privately saved.

In reality, however, the employees mostly worked on their own private computers and stored work documents

there. It was normal. Everything just had to be in accordance with the confidentiality agreement. They should

never disclose such information to outsiders.

To put it bluntly, there was a high degree of freedom in the rule.

This rule was treated to be nonexistent before this incident. Anyway, employees just chose to use whichever was

more convenient-the office computer or their private computer.

If something were to happen, then this rule would cinto play, but it was not meant to take effect now.

Keith bowed his head and spoke up, "I'm sorry Mr Grant. | was working late, so | stored the information on my

laptop and took it back with me. | was worried that the office computer wasn't very safe as it was in a public

area, so | stored important information on a portable hard drive and kept it as a backup at home.

"But | only left it as a backup and didn't send it to anyone else. | can bring the laptop over for you to go through."

When | heard Keith say such things, | was vaguely distressed.

If it were not for Ruby, he would not have to explain himself here at all. Theo's and my trust in Keith had never

once wavered.

"You say that, but who knows what

you've done on the laptop? If the documents hadn't gone missing today, we would've never known that you were

keeping a copy of something so important for

ove

yourself."

Ruby, who was next to him, seemed to have caught him by his tail. Just as soon as she finished speaking, she

immediately turned her head to look at Theo.

"Mr. Grant, | think this violation of the company's rutes must be dealt with seriously. Otherwise, the employees at

the lower level will pretend as if the rules don't exist at all. How can the company even be run after that..."

"I don't need you to teachhow to manage my company." Theo, who had not spoken up until now, finally

could not help himself.
