“No, this has nothing to do with her.” Gabriel finally spoke, though he didn’t have the nerve to look at Curtis. “I’ve been unhappy with how you’ve treated me for years, Curtis. I just didn’t mention how I feel! Why can I only be your assistant when I’m so talented? Not to mention you berate me all the time. I sold some of Faymon Group’s secrets to other companies because I can’t stand seeing the company operate so smoothly.”

Curtis replied plainly, “Do you know how severe your crime is?”

“I’ll only be spending a few years in prison.” Not only did Gabriel shrug, but he also smiled. “Do you know the money I made selling those secrets was multiple times higher than my annual salary? A few years in prison is worth it for the money I got.”

“I’ll give you one more chance, Gabriel. Tell me everything, and I’ll let this slide.”

“There’s nothing more for me to say. I admit to my doing.”

The two men entered a silent stalemate that lasted for a few minutes.

Since he insists on admitting to his crime, I won’t waste my time talking to him any further. When Curtis’ train of thought ended there, he turned around and left. “Then you’ll pay the price for your actions.”

A bitter smile formed on Gabriel’s countenance as he watched his former employer leave the interrogation room. I’m sorry for disappointing you, Mr. Faymon, but I can’t let Stella go to prison now that she’s pregnant.

Due to Gabriel admitting his crime in front of the reporters, Faymon Group’s shares continued to drop. Only a few days after that scandal, another one popped up.

The CEO of an e-commerce company under Faymon Group, who only occupied the position for less than four years, was revealed to be cheating on his wife. Even worse, he had a two-year-old daughter with his mistress. He abused his wife and threatened to kill her if she told anyone about what happened.

Those two scandals caused Faymon Group’s shares to drop at a frighteningly fast rate.

Even after Faymon Group publicly announced they had dealt with the CEO and Gabriel, the situation still didn’t turn around.

While all that was happening, someone bought up to several hundred million worth of Faymon Group’s shares.

Tilly sensed something fishy was going on and immediately told Curtis about it. “Should we contact the Securities Regulatory Commission and tell them to restrict that buyer’s ability to purchase more of our company’s shares? “

As Curtis read through that mysterious buyer’s purchase records of Faymon Group’s shares, his expression appeared composed, as though it wasn’t a serious issue at all.
