The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 226

Chapter 226 

If the surveillance records were erased, they might still be recoverable

But if the surveillance was turned off, it’s a whole different game… 

Ms. Bennett, who do you think stabbed us in the back?Molly was puzzled

A thought of Oscar flashed through Arabella’s mind, There’s no solid proof yet, but at tomorrow’s new product launch, you could” 

Arabella whispered something into Molly’s ear. Molly’s face showed uncertainty, I’m not sure I can pull it off” 

You totally got this.Arabella patted her shoulder, boosting her confidence, I believe in you.” 

After Molly left, Arabella pulled up the surveillance footage from that day. Sure enough, someone had intentionally deleted the records

In fact, of all deletion methods, manual deletion is the easiest to recover. It’s because the internal formatting of the hard drive is only altered once. By following certain rules, the data can be easily restored

Arabella’s slender fingers danced on the keyboard. In no time, all the previously deleted content reappeared on screen

Arabella spotted a familiar figure entering her office

It was Oscar, no doubt

The office was empty at the time. He had been in there for quite some time. It was obvious that he might have been sneaking photos of the design drafts

When he left the office, his hands were empty. But judging by his cocky strut, he probably succeeded in his scheme. He even walked out looking all smug

Without a second thought, Arabella’s fingers danced on the keyboard again, disconnecting his office’s dedicated WIFI

On the other side

Oscar just finished a call. He noticed his WIFI was disconnected. After reconnecting, he sat back in his chair and sipped his coffee

He was completely oblivious that the WIFI he just connected to was specially prepared by Arabella

Arabella effortlessly hacked into his phone. At that moment, he was replying to a voice message from someone named Jason, That young female designer said she has a solution. She’s full of youthful arrogance, thinking a few grand statements can showcase her abilities. In fact, the problem at hand is not even something you or I can solve.” 

If she dares to launch a similar design tomorrow, I will bankrupt her.” 

HahahaOscar enjoyed his aromatic coffee, Don’t worry. She’s well aware of the severe consequences following the new product launch.” 

Molly does have some design talent, and I once considered bringing her into my team. Unfortunately, people who can’t be bought are of no use to us.She’ll soon be behind bars. But, it’s already her honor that a nobody like her could help you gain reputation with her design.” 

Arabella copied all these conversations and their previous chat records as evidence

This was damning evidence

A while later, Oscar, enjoying his coffee and listening to music, contacted Monica, the boss of SY Fashion, asking for her cut

Monica, I’ve already provided you with our company’s best design plan. I heard you’ve sold thousands of products already and it will soon reach ten thousand. According to our previous agreement, I should get a cut” 

Don’t worry.Monica responded quickly, You’ll get 30%, not a penny less! But we’ve agreed that once you regain the position of president, you will provide some convenience for SY Fashion.” 

Of course!Oscar replied easily, We’re friends. I know what to do.” 

Arabella checked all the apps in Oscar’s phone, copied all the useful information, and then called Dean over

Go get Oscar.” 

Dean left immediately. 

A while later, Oscar strode in, You want to ask me how to solve the current problem?” 

Before Arabella could say anything, Oscar just sat opposite her, confidently smiling, If I were you, I’d be handing in my resignation letter right now, asking for headquarters to step in” 

You want my position? Talking about resignation again and againYou think you’re up for this job?Arabella smiled, full of authority

Ha, Oscar laughed, You’re the one who’s not up for it, right? I’d love to see how you explain to everyone if we can’t deliver tomorrow!” 

That’s none of your concern.” 

Arabella threw a stack of reports in front of him, These are all the reimbursement forms since the company opened. I’ve looked through them. You claim over ten grand on average every month, especially this month, thirteen times, totaling thirteen thousand. What kind of clients are you entertaining with all this money?” 

Isn’t everything clearly written on the forms? Can’t you read? Do you need me to read it out to you?Oscar leaned back in his chair, looking relaxed, Like this month, I met with thirteen clients, spent a total of thirteen thousand, averaging about a thousand per client” 

The first reimbursement form, on the 3rd of this month, you met with the vice president of a clothing company. You treated him to dinner, golf, and 

sauna, spending over nine grand.” 

Oscar looked innocent, What’s the problem? I treated him so he would cooperate with us for a long timeYou don’t understand these business etiquettes”
