Hector was stunned. Had that little bitch found evidence? He was sure he had deleted everything.
"Angela, stop making up nonsense," Bill said, trying to defuse the situation.
"Are you seriously trying to fool me without any proof?" Hector sneered, his eyes filled with mockery.
Angela didn't bother with words. Instead, she calmly opened the video on the laptop in front of everyone.
Everyone's jaw dropped.
On the screen, Hector looked every bit the pervert.
"Turn it off! This is fake! You've edited it!" Hector's voice was sharp with anger. "How dare you slander me?"
Angela's voice was cold. "Apologize to me, or I'll post it online."
"Angela, what are you doing? Mr. Zander didn't mean it. Give me your phone," Bill said, his tone desperate. He hadn't expected Angela to find evidence. With no way out, he could only try to stop her.
"Exactly, Angela," Nora chimed in, her attitude shifting instantly. "This involves Mr. Zander's reputation. You can't ruin him over something so trivial, can you?"
Angela remained unmoved. The demand was still the same—apologize.
Hector's face alternated between white and red.
He had relied on Bill and Nora to back him up, but seeing Angela like this, his fury boiled over.
How could he possibly apologize? How could he bow down to this little nobody?
"Fine, you're denying it?" Angela sneered, grabbing Yvonne's arm as they turned to leave.
"Hey, where are you going?" Bill hurriedly signaled to Nora with his eyes. "Stop her quickly! She doesn't care about anything. If she posts that video, it's over."
