The conference room was instantly in silence.
Every
Joshua furrowed his brows.
He lifted his head and looked at Luna coldly. “What do you mean?“
“Am I not clear enough?“ Luna sneered, “I only want justice.“
Joshua sneered, “Luna, I thought you knew what it meant to not overdo it.“
“Not overdoing it?“ Luna laughed out loud. She raised her eyes and looked at Joshua.
“Mr. Lynch, can you explain to me why I should not overdo it? Someone recorded our meeting and
posted it online, accusing me of plagiarizing. When it almost cost me my career, did you get her to stop
overdoing it?
“When Mrs. Lynch got my most trusted assistant to use her computer, creating evidence accusing me
of putting up an act all by myself, did you stop her from overdoing it?
“Why do I have to know when to stop? Why when someone harms me, I don’t even have the right to
find out who was the one who did it?“
Then, Luna took a breath. “If you are such a biased person who only protects the people closest to you,
why can’t I choose to quit and leave Lynch Group?”
The entire conference room was in pin-drop silence upon her words.
Actually, from Joshua refusing to check Alice’s computer, to him frantically convicting Arianna of crime,
to him punishing her lightly, everyone has already guessed it.
Alice was Joshua’s wife. Even if she did something that she should not do, Joshua had to protect her.
No one could do anything about it.
Luna, on the other hand, refused to buy it.
The staff in the conference room looked at each other. Everyone was anticipating what was happening
next and wanted to discuss it with each other, but they were afraid to make a single sound.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlice sat there, her face miserably pale.
Previously, when she was in Sea City, she had Dennis Walter help her, so she was cleanly cleared of
all responsibility when she went up against Luna.
However, this time…
She miscalculated. She never would have thought that Luna would take it so seriously and that she
would even think of using a hacker to check her computer records.
Alice subconsciously looked at Joshua.
Joshua closed his eyes rather helplessly. He leaned back in his seat and sighed heavily.
In the end, he opened his eyes. “Lucas, turn on Alice’s computer.“
Lucas was slightly stunned. “Sir, you…“ Joshua nodded. “I can check the records.“
Alice’s face has lost all of its colors. Courtney, who had been joining forces with Alice all this while,
slowly cowered in fear, trying to minimize her presence.
Under Luna’s cold gaze, Joshua placed his long fingers on the keyboard.
Lines of black and white codes kept flashing across the huge screen in the conference room.
In the end, Alice’s computer records the day before have been recorded.
“The accounts that had logged into this computer were commonly used accounts. There were no new
accounts.“
According to the data shown from the computer, Lucas took a deep breath and read the results out
loud.
“According to the frequency of use of these accounts, it is indeed Mrs. Lynch’s account. The time when
the video was uploaded yesterday, the account that logged into the video website belongs to… Mrs.
Lynch.“
The entire conference room was in an uproar upon his words.
What Lucas said directly confirmed that the video that was uploaded the day before was done by Alice.
Alice’s expressions were extremely ugly. Her face was paler than the color of the wall behind her.
Lucas continued, “A program to automatically upload the video was also installed in Mrs. Lynch’s
computer. The time of usage was… yesterday afternoon. After being used once, the program self-
destructed.”
Upon Lucas’ words, Joshua tiredly pushed the keyboard away. ”Alice, apologize.”
What Luna said was right.
one looked at Luna closely. They seemed to want to read her thoughts from her face.
“Luna.“
Sitting on the main seat, Joshua swept her a glance indifferently. His gaze was cold. “What is going
on?“
When he picked her up from the police station the day before and when she saw the video on the
internet, her expressions did not look like she was faking it.
However, at that moment, the person that uploaded the video was Luna’s closest assistant.
Either she was extremely scheming and great in acting even duping him, or her assistant has been
bribed by someone.
Joshua turned over and looked at the little girl next to Luna. Her face has lost all of its colors. She was
sweating profusely and trembling violently.
If it were not for her hands gripping the sides of the tables tightly, he believed that she would have
fallen to the ground already.
Joshua furrowed his brows.
How could this assistant of Luna, who was direct and wore her heart on her sleeves, be bribed by
someone else to betray Luna?
Thus, Joshua turned to look at Luna once again.
Luna welcomed Joshua’s gaze. Their eyes met.
Luna had clenched her fists tightly by her sides. She took a deep breath and enunciated every word
with difficulty. “I don’t know anything about this.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmArianna also did not upload any video.“
Then, Luna turned her head. “Arianna, tell them what you told me outside just now! “
Arianna paused for a while before saying in a trembling voice, “I -It’s… Mrs. Lynch. She said that she
could not send her email out yesterday, that is why I went to help her…“
Upon her words, Alice, in the distance, raised her eyebrows. Her voice was filled with detest. “What
nonsense are you talking about? Since the company’s internet has no issues, why would I not be able
to send the email?“
Arianna glared at Alice with rage and teary eyes. “It was you! I’m just a lowly assistant, without your
permission, how would I dare to touch your computer! You clearly told me that you could not send an
email, so you got me to help you! “
Alice smiled. She gently leaned into Joshua’s arms. Her eyes were filled with condescension and
mockery. “What a cheap shot. Even if I can’t send an email out, I would either find the IT department or
get someone to fix it. Why would I find you? You’re just Luna’s assistant.“
Seeing her arrogant attitude, Arianna was in utter despair.
She cried hysterically, “I didn’t do it! I’m on Director Luna’s side. I have always respected her. Why
would I take such a misleading video to accuse her of plagiarism? Mrs. Lynch, stop trying to frame me!
“
“Arianna. “ Luna furrowed her brows. She grabbed her hand and shook her head at her. “Calm down. “
Then, She raised her eyes and looked at Joshua. “Mr. Lynch, we will find a way to investigate whether
Arianna did it or not.“
“Luna is right.“ Upon Luna’s words, Alice could not help but laugh. She gracefully smiled. “Arianna is
just a pawn being used by someone else. The person behind instructing her is the main culprit.“
“Yes! “
Courtney immediately chimed in, “Arianna is young and innocent. She would easily be manipulated into
doing something silly. What we truly have to do is to find out who was the one manipulating her! This
person is horrible! They deliberately got Arianna to use Mrs. Lynch’s computer to send the video out,
trying to frame Mrs. Lynch for leaking confidential information! “
Upon Courtney’s words, the other people in the conference room started discussing among themselves
in hushed tones.
