Chapter 5

“It’s okay.” Wayne said casually, trying to comfort Ashley.

Ashley hid behind him, acting like she was terrified of Rosalynn.

Rosalynn was speechless.

“Rosalynn, can’t she accuse you? I can, right?” Wayne’s voice was cold and cutting.

Rosalynn was caught off guard, her eyes welling up with tears. Wayne… didn’t have faith. in her.

Wayne selected a few data sheets from the file and passed them to Rosalynn. “Even if someone else tampered with the data, your signature is on these, isn’t it?”

“Yes.” Rosalynn replied.

“Then you’re responsible.” Wayne declared Rosalynn guilty, “I’ll give you three days to sort this out. If not, I will call the police.”

Rosalynn stared at him, feeling a hint of resentment, but she quickly suppressed it. Whether or not she had anything to do with the matter, Wayne knew deep down.

Maybe disappointment wasn’t the right word to discribe her mood.

Wayne had always been a vengeful person. She had volunteered to leave and forcefully rejected his attempts to keep her. If Wayne didn’t kill her, it meant he had been merciful.

However, Rosalynn knew that she was not responsible for the entire situation. She refused to be made a scapegoat.

“Fine,” Rosalynn responded with unwavering fearlessness.

Wayne’s eyes darkened, unsettled by her stubborn and fearless demeanor. Without saying a word, he turned back towards his office, with Ashley closely trailing behind him.

As Ashley cast a glance at Rosalynn, a smug sense of triumph emanated from her. Soon, rumors of Rosalynn betraying the company spread throughout Bane Corporation. Rosalynn no longer had an office, so she took her laptop and went to the company library. She had been monitoring the entire process of the Douglas project, and it was a perfect plan in every way.

She had personally done research on Prodigy Inc.’s demands, so the proposal should have been flawless and Prodigy Inc. would have approved it without a doubt.

What a pity!

At lunchtime.

Rosalynn bought a sandwich and sat down in a quiet, uce. She took a bite and responded to Paige’s text.
