The next day, Perla really did come to Garson Group, But she insisted that had to be in charge of se wouldn’t cooperate.
I held a meeting and brought Casey with me to the conference room
When Perla saw the two of us, her expression softened a bit, But then she got angry an
She asked, “Ada, can you deal with Vivian? She’s seriously annoying Does Jute as through he ten
That was when I found out. Apparently Vivian had just tried to suck up to Paris, only to get soaked nesest Unexpectedly, Vivian had burst into tears and even tried to accuse Perla
I remarked, “Jude must be sick in the head! Why the hell did I ever like him back the tale
Perla asked, “Were you? Why did you like him?”
“Because he really was outstanding back then, and he was handsome I replied blankly
Perla was genuinely at a loss for words because everything I said was true,
Back then, Jude was dazzling, cheerful, and full of life. Wherever he went, he brought energy and sighness Buttow
I took out the documents. “This time, Casey will be the lead. I’ll assist with the design
Perla looked like she wanted to protest, but after glancing at Casey, she kept quiet.
I explained, “Perla, I’m not trying to get out of it. I didn’t say anything at dinner yesterday, but actually the proetes working on with Dorian had its data deleted. It caused a major problem. I really don’t have the energy fight for
Besides, I’d be gone soon anyway. I needed to help Casey establish herself
Perla didn’t make things difficult. Our meeting went smoothly, and in the end, we signed the contrad
When I got back to the office, I started investigating the deleted data incident.
Many people in the design department had their computers infected with a virus. It had already been checked. The vins had originated from my computer and then spread through the internal network to others.
Since my computer contained the most important files, the losses were substantial
Other documents aside, the project with Elitara Group couldn’t afford any delays.
I went straight to the Security Department to request the surveillance footage.
The person in charge looked troubled. “Mrs. Carson, I’m really sorry. The system was upgraded at the time, and a lot of videos were deleted.”
“An upgrade? Why at night?” I already had a bad feeling.
Sure enough, the staff told me that Vivian had brought people over, claiming it was at Jude’s request.
Everyone knew about her relationship with Jude, so no one questioned it and allowed the staff to proceed with the upgrade.
I checked the system. It had indeed been upgraded to the latest version. Several days of footage were deleted and couldnt be recovered.
I returned to my office feeling discouraged, thinking this incident might never be solved. I did have a few suspects. Douglas s sudden disappearance that day was suspicious.
But Randy was also on good terms with Vivian. Maybe he provoked me on purpose so someone else could take advantage. But I had seen him drinking that night, white wine and beer mixed. With that much alcohol, staying sober would’ve been nearly impossible.
As I was going over everything in my head, Mahir Weiss from Design Department One knocked timidly on my door I responded, “Come in.”
Mahir pleaded, “Ada, I want to confess something. Please don’t be mad, okay? Dock my pay if you have to, b fire me.”
His guilty expression immediately raised all kinds of alarms in my head.

But Mahir had always been diligent, only occasionally slacking off a bit. He was young and a bit flighty, but nothing more

I gave him a slight nod. “Go on. Be honest, and vil go easy on 0
He sent me a video file, then explained, “Ada, I’m really sorry. I was upgrading a game and had left it on auto–mode. “Somehow, the live–stream function got turned on, but don’t worry, My laptop was in the hallway, definitely not inside the office.”

I watched the footage. The angle was indeed from a hallway window, and it showed someone entering the office that night. Judging by the height and build, it was a man.
But the angle was too low, and the person’s face couldn’t be seen clearly.
Mahir kept apologizing, swearing he never brought the laptop into the office and insisting he didn’t spread the virus.
1 sighed. “If only it had been in the office. We might’ve seen who it was.”
