If something really happens, she wouldn’t feel nothing at all. And nothing can be done since she isn’t unconscious for a long time. Although Richard is shameless sometimes, he will never take advantage of others’ perilous state.
It is silence right afterwards.
Miya feels the awkwardness in the air and decides to talk first, “Where are we going now?”
“To the company. There are still a lot of things waiting for us to deal with.” Alex says, and he doesn’t say anything after.
Alex goes back to his office and gets back to work after he brings Miya back to the company, leaving her moping around.
Why does she feel that he doesn’t seem to believe what she said just now? Or is she just being paranoid?
Just then, Michelle comes over and grabs Miya’s arm anxiously.
“Miya, what’s going on with you? Where did Richard take you? Did he have improper thoughts about you?” Michelle’s eyes are filled with worry.
Miya looks distracted, “There was nothing wrong. Let’s get back to work.”
She doesn’t want to explain much. After all, Richard is the reason that causes the misunderstanding, so she doesn’t even want to hear that name.
But it is baffling to her that Alex is mad like this. Even though he remains silent, she would rather be scolded by him than not saying anything.
“By the way, should we publish the newly designed draft for next quarter?” Michelle reports to Miya.
And she finally comes back to her sense.
What Michelle says reminds Miya of the mole Richard tells her. It seems that she still doesn’t find out who the company’s mole is.
She really doesn’t expect it to fall short.
Miya stares angrily and swears she will pick out the mole. After all it is the mole who should take all the blame.
“Michelle, I need to tell you about something.”
With that, Miya drags Michelle into the office.
“What the hell happened?” Michelle is startled by Miya’s serious look, like a white little rabbit in panic.
“Let me tell you something,” Miya says as she closes the door carefully.
Michelle never sees Miya acting anxious like this. Did something serious happen?
“Miya…”
“There is a mole in our company!” Miya says as she grabs her shoulders.
Michelle’s jaw drops, and as she is about to shout, Miya covers her mouth with her hand.
“This information must not be leaked, so you can’t tell anyone about it.”
Miya withdraws her hand after spilling out the secret.
Michelle is a little confused, “Who did you hear it from? Was there something behind this?”
