- Joycelyn ignored Linda’s provocation.
- mocking Joycelyn for On the other hand, some of the colleagues in the second team started being sarcastic, subt overestimating herself. They said that in the end, no matter what tricks she used, she still couldn’t catch Ellison’s attention.
- There were all sorts of remarks, flattering those in power while putting down those with less power.
- A female colleague from the second team deliberately said loudly, “Linda is Mr. Grant’s former classmate. She’s been in charge of important projects for so many years. Some people are not even worthy of sucking up to Linda. Just wait. Once the celebration party is over, let’s see how Mr. Grant deals with Jaycelyn.”
- In Joycelyn’s eyes, the faces of those people were really quite ridiculous.
- She remained silent, ignoring those people’s arrogance.
- In Linda’s eyes, Joycelyn knew she was being highly regarded and was too scared to say al
- Because of that, Linda got even more smug.
- word.
- “Everyone, go to the multimedia conference room to help with the decoration, Linda said, laughing in a way that feigned surprise and flattery. “Mr. Grant is holding a celebratory party for me. I hope everyone can help out and make the decoration look nicer. Mr. Grant will be giving a speech later.
- Joycelyn did not even look up when she heard that.
- Indeed, at the event today, many large foreign companies immediately made cooperation plans with Ellison. He was busy in the afternoon. Joycelyn did not make William hold things up for the sake of these trivial matters. He only released the news about the celebratory party.
- Linda still did not know that this celebratory party was actually Joycelyn’s idea.
- Hearing Linda’s words, all the colleagues followed her to the multimedia conference room.
- “I heard that our planning department was supposed to celebrate in the office. As a gesture in honor of Linda, Mr. Grant let us go to the conference room instead.”
- “That’s right. It’s all thanks to Ms. Lorne that we can celebrate with the higher–ups of the company.
- The excited voices of the two female colleagues from the second team could be heard throughout the entire floor.
- They deliberately said it for Joycelyn to hear as they wanted to mock and ridicule her.
- There were many people in the company. Other than the higher ups and core members who could attend the celebratory party, many departments watched the internal live broadcast in their offices.
- The planning department was specially moved there, and everyone thought they were riding on Linda’s coattails.
- In reality, it was requested by Joycelyn.
- If her colleagues on this floor did not leave, she would not be able to find that original speech manuscript.
- one copy of the original speech manuscript. Lina insisted that Joycelyn had switched it. If it was found, it
- There was only one copy
- would be an immediate slap in the face for Linda, proving she had hidden it herself to frame Joycelyn and bring disgrace to Grant Group in front of the foreign companies from all over the world.
- By the time most of the people on the floor had left. Aurelia and Selene stayed behind. They exchanged a glance, watching Joycelyn, who had been silently staring at her phone the whole time.
- Selene said, “Joycelyn, it’s okay. Mr. Grant doesn’t believe you, but we do.
- “What you said on stage today was what that genius researcher said during our meeting the other day. You have a good memory and have memorized it. We all know that. When Mr. Grant comes back, I’ll explain it to him.”
- Joycelyn remained silent, making Selene feel a little worried.
- Since Joycelyn did not respond, Aurelia and Selene got up and walked up to her.
- They noticed that she was carefully checking the surveillance footage.
- Aurelia leaned forward to take a look and asked, “Is this our department’s surveillance footage?”
- “Yeah,” Joycelyn said. “I asked William to help me copy it. It’s today’s footage. I heard that only Mr. Grant went through the speech manuscript before it was printed. It’s this one. I saw the footage of the printing. There are indeed words. Plus, the printer has detected it.”
- After Joycelyn finished looking at the footage, she confirmed that Linda had printed it twenty minutes before leaving. Since Linda hadn’t been anywhere else after that, the original speech manuscript must still be in her office.
- “Linda hid the speech manuscript?” Aurelia said, figuring it out before Joycelyn clarified. “So she planned it right from the
- start?”
- “That’s what I suspect,” Joycelyn said. She closed her phone and looked at the empty office, her gaze slowly shifting back to Aurelia and Selene.
- “If we manage to find the original speech manuscript, it will prove your innocence,” Aurelia said. “It will also prove that Linda pulled off a scheme.”
- “Yeah,” Joycelyn got up and walked toward Linda’s office.
- “But William said they didn’t find it.‘ Joycelyn had gotten the password to Linda’s office. She entered it to open the door.
- “Turns out that when the three people from William’s office came to look for something earlier, they were actually looking for the original speech manuscript.” Selene suddenly understood
- When the three of them entered Linda’s office, there were only documents and materials in the office. These visible things must have been searched.
- “Let’s see if the manuscript is placed at hidden spots. It’s just three sheets of paper, all about the smart chip project,” Joycelyn began searching the back of the cabinet and hidden places.
- The three of them searched the office for a long time but still found nothing,
- They even carefully went through all the visible folders, but there was still nothing.
- “Could it be that I was wrong in my suspicion? Joycelyn thoughts she frowned involuntarily, lost in self–doubt.
- “Could it be in the shredder?” Aurelia saw a box beside the bookcase that looked like a shredder.
- It was placed in a conspicuous spot, so no one would think too much about it.
- Joycelyn’s eyes suddenly widened. “It might really have been shredded.”
- Upon hearing that, Aurelia and Selene immediately began to dismantle the shredder and rummage through it carefully.
- It was filled with thin strips of paper, and no words could be seen at all.
- However, the shredder might have jammed, and the paper wasn’t shredded completely. There were some small pieces of paper, which Joycelyn took a look at.
- By coincidence, some of the small pieces of paper had the words “time“, “venue” and “project speech manuscript” printed on
- them.
- “I found it,” Joycelyn said, her voice a bit joyful and excited. “It’s right here.”
- “What are you three doing?” Linda’s angry voice could be heard,
- Her eyes widened when she noticed that Joycelyn and the others had emptied the shredder and even pieced the fragments together. Without a second thought, she rushed forward and tried to crush the pieces of paper.
- ‘If Mr. Grant finds out that I shredded the speech manuscript, my scheme will be completely exposed.‘ she thought.
- Aurelia stepped forward and immediately blocked her
- Linda began to forcefully push Aurelia, who was blocking her. “You trespassed into the director’s office to steal information. Which competitor are you selling it to? You have some nerve!”
- Seeing that she could not break free, Linda immediately scolded them in a stern voice and used threats in her speech.
