If it wasn’t Dalores, who could it be? She was deep in thought when her eyes landed on Elizabeth, who looked even worse than earlier.

Thinking about her recent break-up and the mess at the studio, Natalie knew that it must’ve been hard for her.

“Elizabeth, do you want to take some time off? There’s been a lot going on, but don’t worry.Mr.Wesley will get to the bottom of this soon.”

Natalie patted her friend on the gently to comfort her.

Natalie had never seen Elizabeth in such a terrible state before. And she seemed to be in a bad mood.

Ever since the moment she stepped into the studio that morning, she had barely spoken a word.

Elizabeth didn’t answer her.

“Are you still sad because of the break up?” Natalie asked softly.

“You deserve someone better. Why are you sad over someone who hurt you?”

“No, it’s not like that, Natalie…I’m not sad about him, I…It’s…”

Elizabeth clearly wanted to say something, but she stopped on a second thought. She held Natalie’s hand and raised her head slowly, tears rolling down her cheeks uncontrollably.

When Natalie saw Elizabeth’s tear-stained face, she was taken aback.

“What’s wrong? Why are you crying?”

Was it because Elizabeth was still hurting from her break up? Elizabeth looked around anxiously.

When she saw that no one was looking at them, Elizabeth grabbed Natalie’s hand and whispered, “Natalie… It’s all my fault that the design was leaked.”

Elizabeth was the one who leaked the design? Shocked, Natalie looked at her wordlessly. She didn’t know what to say.

After a long time, she swallowed and said slowly, “Elizabeth, tell me what happend. Did you sell the design?”

Natalie recalled showing the draft to Elizabeth once before.

At the time, she felt that she was still too inexperienced, so she showed it to Elizabeth to ask for her opinion.

But Elizabeth didn’t look like someone who would betray W Marks Studio! “No, I…The file was in my computer. It was Jorge. Recently, Jorge had suddenly become a whole new person. He pretended to be good to me because he thought that I’d give him money to buy drugs.I didn’t agree, so he borrowed money from shady people. In the end, he amassed a huge debt.A few days ago, when I was in the shower, he got on my computer and copied all the files and sell them.”
