Chapter 718
Irene stared closely at the person on the screen right then.
He was looking left and right, ensuring that no one was around, before walking to Irene's seat.
The cameras clearly recorded him spiking her cup, and Irene's hands clenched at her sides even as she watched.
As her expressions darkened, she told the head of security, "Send me a copy.“
The man said, "But we're not supposed to do it without the director's approval..."
"Just give it to me. I'll talk to the director myself."
“But..."
"He's going to retire soon, and everyone in this building knows that I'm the one who will succeed him," Irene snapped, her tone becoming stern just then. "Or do I not have that much authority?"
As the man hesitated, Irene demanded again, "Send it to me."
"Okay," he replied-he had no intention of upsetting Irene since he wanted to keep his job.
If he did, Irene might harass him or just come up with some convolute excuse to fire him once she became director.
It was difficult to get a stable job these days, and his pay was above average, not to mention that he would not be paid that well for such a simple job at any other place.
“Give me your email address. I'll send it to you."
Irene gave him her email address, and she soon received a notification from her phone, which was logged into her email account.
"Actually, I'd really like it if you spoke to the director about this, or I can't explain myself if something comes up..."
"I know."
Irene naturally would, since she was not supposed to supersede Dennis and handle the issue herself, just as that perp would have to be punished by the book.
"Don't worry. I will explain everything to Mr. Turner-you won't be dragged into this."
With that, she turned and headed out of the security room, breathing a deep sigh as she stood outside.
She was as furious as she was shocked when she sensed the acid in her drink.
