CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

“No, he isn't. I've checked with the Maintenance Department, and they've confirmed that he isn't one of theirs. In fact, he isn't even from this company. He knocked out one of our staff from the Maintenance Department and took this uniform off him!” Silas replied angrily.

The coldness in Shane's expression intensified as he asked, “How is that employee's condition now?”

“He's fine and has already returned to duty. The elevators are scheduled for maintenance today, and this guy knocked the staff out while he was on his way to service the elevators. He then changed into this uniform and snuck into your office, Mr. Shane,” Silas said while pointing at the man.

The man looked up at them with tears and snot all over his face as he whimpered in fear. “I'm sorry, Mr. Shane! Please spare me! I'm begging you!”

The man leaned forward submissively, only to have Silas kick his head back as he said with a sneer, “That's it? You were stealing from our CEO's office! Did you really think a simple apology would suffice?”

“I... He hired me just for this job. I'm a professional thief for hire that specializes in stealing corporate documents. I was gaming at home when I got a call from someone asking me to steal an equity transfer agreement from your office. I knew Thompson Group wasn't some small company that I can easily steal from, but the money offered was just so great that I...”
