Betrayed and Dumped: She Rose Stronger Than Ever novel Chapter 175

Greg turned to leave, but before he could take a step, Rebecca suddenly walked in and caught him in the act. His face drained of color. The files in his hand slipped and hit the floor with a dull thud.

Rebecca smiled and stooped to pick them up. “So, Greg, you’re interested in next year’s research and development plans? If you’re that curious, why not just ask me? Why did you sneak in here and try to take them?”

Greg’s heart raced. He forced out a stiff laugh. “It wasn’t like that. I wasn’t stealing, just... wanted to take a quick look, that’s all. Anyway, Ms. Harper, I won’t bother you. I have things to do, so I’ll just...” He started edging toward the door.

“Not so fast.” Rebecca cut him off. “Greg, care to explain why you barged into my office without permission?”

She held up her phone and played a surveillance video for him to see.

Her smile faded. “Everyone knows my office is off-limits without an invitation. Let me guess who you planned to give these files to. NovaStack Cloud, perhaps?”

A shiver ran through Greg. He glanced up at the ceiling, confused. He’d disabled the main camera. How could there still be footage?

“I installed a micro-camera in here,” Rebecca said coolly.

Even Greg, clueless as he was, realized he’d walked straight into a trap. Rebecca had set him up from the start. What a ruthless bitch!

He started shaking, his voice barely steady. “I... I didn’t do anything. You’re making this up!”

There was only one way out now. Deny everything. If she didn’t have solid proof, she couldn’t pin this on him.

Rebecca arched an eyebrow. “Proof? I have plenty. Where should I start?”

Just then, Wayne and Cindy hurried over. Wayne pointed at a stack of files. “Ms. Harper, these are all chat logs showing Greg’s contact with other people.”

Greg’s eyes went wild with anger. So the server maintenance was just a cover. They’d used it to dig through his computer and find his secrets. Low. Absolutely despicable!
