The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1609

When he entered the room and looked at the crowd, Keith was momentarily embarrassed. His smile faded.

"Sorry, Mr. Grant. I'll come back later." Realizing that he had come in at the wrong time, he turned around and prepared to leave.

I immediately called out to him, "It's okay, Keith. I was just talking to Mr. Grant. That's pretty much it for tonight. It's time for you guys to get some rest too."

I looked at Theo again, and although he had not expressed approval earlier, his gaze had softened.

With Ruby standing here all the time and Theo wanting to get rid of her, surely he would agree to my proposal as well.

"Yes, Madam," Keith replied respectfully. He stepped forward and prepared to hand over the documents to Theo.

"Why would you have a backup?" Ruby's sudden questioning caused everyone to stare.

I immediately spoke up, "Didn’t you just say that Theo gave this information to Keith for safekeeping? Since Keith is responsible for the management of this information, isn’t it normal for him to have a backup?"

I said and looked at Ruby, wanting to hear how she could make a reasonable explanation for her sudden question just now.

Ruby was slightly stunned. Then, she smiled and continued, "Mrs. Grant, don’t misunderstand. What I mean is that we had just searched through the office computer and couldn't find any backup. With this sudden copy coming out, I'm just a little curious about its origin."

After that, she looked at Theo again. Her eyes were a lot calmer than just now. "The company has rules saying that for class-two confidential documents and above, not even employees themselves are allowed to keep a backup. Otherwise, it's easy to cause misunderstandings, right?"

Hmph. I sneered in my heart. This was her reasoning, huh? However, I could not deny it.

The company did have such a rule.
