The CEO’s Regret My Ex-Wife is a Tech Goddess novel Chapter 149

The messages in The Security Administration's internal group chat were enough to chill anyone's heart.

Some people said she only got the position as head of the special research team because she slept her way to the top with the Director.

Others made thinly veiled remarks that Silas was playing favorites and making flawed decisions.

Some questioned if the Director's appointment was just a joke, stating blatantly that a crucial team couldn't possibly be led by a cancer patient.

Every comment was uglier than the last.

Alaina stared at the words, taking a deep breath to suppress the bitter sting welling up inside her.

Michelle had told her before that The Security Administration was a unique entity.

It operated differently from other administrative departments.

The employees were all highly skilled experts with massive egos, and none of them viewed their jobs as just standard government desk work.

Anyone who made it in had exceptional dedication, treating service to the country as their ultimate calling.

Silas was only able to become the Director because his track record was flawless and his presence was overwhelmingly dominant.

A scandal of this magnitude was essentially a mutiny against his leadership.

"I am indeed a stomach cancer patient, but I've already had the surgery. That's why I've been taking all that medicine. You don't need to worry about me, and just ignore the gossip. Focus on your work," she replied in a voice memo. Her tone was so steady it even surprised her.

Putting down her phone, she looked out the window at the falling snow.

Was she just supposed to hide here obediently?

Absolutely not.

She grabbed her heavy coat, determined to catch up with Silas.

Unfortunately, she was a step too late. His car had already pulled out of the driveway.

Alaina stood frozen in place. The next second, Mrs. Gable ran over with an umbrella. "Ma'am, the snow is getting heavy. Please don't catch a chill."

"Thank you, Mrs. Gable."
