I dashed out of the taxi and made a beeline for the cafe. By the time I arrived, Jade's eyes were red from crying, and she stuttered through her explanation.
After winning the bid today, a colleague secretly informed Jade that the boss had got her replaced.
The boss planned to wait until everything was smooth sailing before letting his brother-in-law take over, depriving Jade of her deserved bonus. "We're talking about a bonus of $700,000, seven hundred thousand! Asshole! He sweet-talked me into joining the company, only to set me up like this!" Her sobs grew heavier, her voice even more hoarse.
I gently patted her back, asking, "Did they get the confidential designs, too?"
The Design Department's documents were top secret. Even though Jade trusted me deeply, she had personally double-checked many classified materials just the day before.
Without being a core designer, it was impossible to access these materials.
Jade angrily slammed her fist on the table. "Someone tampered with my computer and copied most of the designs, but I kept the core parts to myself."
I nodded, understanding that we could work something out if they didn't have everything.
The phone rang, and Jade visibly bristled when she saw the caller ID, but she answered on speaker.
"Hey, Jade, I heard you weren't feeling well and took the day off. Take a few more sick days. I know it's hard for you to talk right now. Don't worry about the project. My brother-in-law's just returned from abroad and dabbles in design. He'll cover for you for a bit. Make sure to rest up. Don't sacrifice your health for work."
