Wooing My ex-wife (Gwendolyn and Maverick) novel Chapter 747

Amidst the shrieks in the air, many of the panicking women jumped onto their chairs.

“Quick, get it! It’s running over there!”

“Guys, man up and get rid of it!”

The men in the logistics department were pressured into catching the rat.

However, it wasn’t a surprise that those who were used to city life didn’t know how to catch a rat at all, especially one that was so agile.

As screams continued to ring out in the air, the rat ran in between some of the men’s legs.

Terrified by the sight, they turned toward Whitney and pleaded for help.

“Hurry up and catch it! Otherwise, the chaos in the logistics department would turn us into a laughing stock in the entire company!”

“Exactly! The rat came from your drawer, there’s no way you can turn a blind eye to it!”

Arms folded, Whitney simply watched the drama in silence.

She maintained an indifferent look despite being called out to do something.

“As I have just said, I’m letting the rat track down the person who brought it in. If no one owns up to it, this mess, however big it becomes, will be her responsibility.”

Finally, someone couldn’t bear the pressure from the rat any longer.

“I know who put it in your drawer. Catch it quickly and I’ll tell you.”

Nevertheless, Whitney’s mind was sharp as a knife. “Tell me first. Only then will I catch it.”

The young girl subsequently stood up and pointed at Lana. “It’s—”

“Why are you pointing at me? Are you trying to make baseless accusations? You have no right to speak here!”

Outraged, Lana sprang to her feet and slammed her hand on the table before turning to confront Whitney.

“Whitney! Why are you making such a big fuss over a rat? Do you really need to turn the logistics department upside down over something so trivial?”

Lana’s reaction gave Whitney her answer.

“She didn’t say it was you. However, given how anxious you are, you must have been behind this due to the grudge you hold against me.”

Lana snorted, eyes brimming with contempt. “I’ve no idea what you’re talking about. It’s not like the rat has picked me out.”

Whitney continued calmly, “Fine. If you refuse to admit it, I can check the surveillance feeds. I heard that Mr. Newton hates it when his staff engages in office politics. I wonder what the consequences are when I hand over the evidence to him.”

Cowed by the threat, Lana turned pale.

Nonetheless, there was no letting up from Whitney. “I just want to know who the culprit is. If it was you, I won’t pursue the matter any further, as I was the one who did you wrong first. So, I’ll graciously accept your revenge. However, both of us will be even after this.”

Upon hearing the words, Lana began to waver and gave her close colleagues a look.

When she saw a few of them nod, she admitted, “It was me. When you rushed home without finishing your work yesterday, someone saw Isaac come over to copy the data from your computer. And today, you were seen copying documents back to your office computer with your flash drive. Your relationship with Isaac is now clear to all! Not only have you p*ssed me off to have Isaac cover for you on your first day of work, everyone else feels the same way too. I just did what everyone wanted but had no guts to do!”

Everyone implicitly acknowledged what Lana was saying when they lowered their heads in guilt.

“Whitney, seducing Isaac is no big deal. If you really want to prove yourself, you should have Mr. Newton eating out of your hand. Only then will I acknowledge your prowess!”

Whitney sniggered in response. “Id*ots.”

Staying true to her word, she was as calm as a cucumber upon setting off to catch the rat.

When it saw her coming for it, the rat was stricken with fear as it scurried for dear life. However, Whitney’s reaction was lightning-fast. Upon passing Lana by, she grabbed the former’s keyboard and dashed on ahead.

After forcing the rat into a corner, she stepped on its tail with great accuracy before raising the keyboard in the air and slamming it down.

“Argh!”

Squeak!
