Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard)

Chapter 248

Chapter 248 Dishonesty

"But this incident has nothing to do with you either!"

Jill wanted to help me fight back. All I did was shake my head.

"Jill, you're not from this industry. There are a lot of things that you don't know. A few managers from the design department also dropped their signatures on the documents other than Emma. They'd be thrown into jail because of the legal responsibility they had to bear."

I had to admit that Amelia's plan was quite flawless. She slotted in her own name as the main designer of the projects, but the employees of the design department were the ones signing the documents. While it was true that she left her name on the documents, she wasn't the one signing them.

If the projects turned out to be a success, Amelia would be the main person in charge of the projects. She'd be taking credit for the projects' success.

But if the projects turned out to be failures, she'd remain as a secretary from the secretarial department. She had nothing to do with the design department. After all, she wasn't the one signing the important documents.

The only mistake she committed occurred during the handover process. Other than that, Amelia had nothing to do with anything else in the projects.

Even if the top brass wanted to talk to Amelia, she'd just argue that she was just a secretary from the secretarial department. How was she involved with the design department?

If Leonard could take the blame for her, he'd do it in a heartbeat. But if he couldn't do that, the design department would be the scapegoat instead.
