It was unnecessary for Natalie to worry too much. Shane was a sensible and impartial employer.
“All right, stick to the decision,” he reaffirmed and left.
After a while, two security guards came to escort Ashley out.
When she passed by Natalie, she whispered, “I’m sorry.”
The latter remained calm and gave no response.
She could not simply forgive Ashley for the damage caused.
She confronted Jasmine when they were alone in the room. “It was you, wasn’t it?”
“What do you mean?” Jasmine feigned innocence.
Natalie narrowed her eyes at her and replied, “You know what I mean. You orchestrated the whole thing and used Ashley.”
When Shane left their department after inspection two days ago, Jasmine had coughed in her direction.
Natalie did not realize it was Jasmine’s signal for Ashley to leave and steal the drafts until she watched the security recordings last night.
“Do you have any evidence to prove that I instigated her?” Jasmine mocked.
Natalie tucked her hair behind the ears nonchalantly. “Well, I don’t have any evidence. That’s why I didn’t reveal you when you winked at Ashley just now.”
Jasmine did not participate in the action personally, and she concealed the truth very well.
