After the Divorce: From Heartbreak to Heiress Boss novel Chapter 51

Chapter 51 Begging for Mercy

Anna felt a moment of panic and tightly clenched her fists.

She swallowed hard, suppressing the rising anxiety, and pretended to be calm. "I don't understand what are you talking about, Miss Wilson. What did I do? I have no idea."

Leah's gaze grew colder, and she retorted, "Still trying to play innocent?"

Anna believed that the surveillance footage couldn't be restored and that Leah was just pretending to accuse her.

"I didn't do anything! What do I need to defend myself for?"

At first, Anna had been defiant, but she abruptly fell silent when Leah turned the computer screen toward all of them.

On the screen, the footage clearly showed how Anna had tricked Layla away and went to the lounge to steal the speech.

Leah's eyes filled with chillness, and her sharp gaze pierced directly at Anna.

"Anna, now that the truth has come out, what do you have to say for yourself?"

Anna hadn't expected Leah to actually have the ability to recover the surveillance footage. Panic flashed in her eyes, and her face turned ashen.

The technical expert had already claimed that this footage couldn't be restored.

Anna couldn't help but wonder how Leah had done it.

"I... I didn't do it! This surveillance footage must have been edited! Yes, that must be it!" Anna's voice trembled as she tried to defend herself.

"No... please, Miss Wilson, I... It was just a momentary lapse in judgment. Can't you give me another chance, considering that I've served the company for a long time? I promise this won't happen again."

So, even though she despised Leah, she needed to yield to secure this job.

Anna was rendered speechless by Leah's words.

"Well, I..."

Leah glanced at Anna coldly. "When you make a mistake, you must take responsibility for your actions. I won't change my mind."
