"My love, have you been crying? Your eyes are swollen, and your face appears dull," Angela remarked.

"There is something I need to discuss with you," Ethan stated.

"Please, speak to me; I am here to listen," Angela encouraged.

Ethan began, "Do you recall the issue regarding one of our regular VIP customers that I mentioned yesterday?"

"You mean the VIP client who was defrauded of five billion pounds?" Angela responded.

"Precisely," Ethan confirmed.

"What about him?" Angela asked swiftly.

"I did, but they refused to listen," Ethan declared.

"Who do you mean by 'they'?" Angela inquired.

Ethan remained silent until Steven promptly inquired, "What do you plan to do regarding the individual who has framed you?" Ethan glanced at Angela and replied, "Nothing; I do not even know who it was." Angela smiled, pleased with Ethan's response, as it indicated that, at present, everyone was a potential suspect. "Very well, I trust you have eaten?" Steven expressed his concern. "I have not," Ethan responded. "Why is that?" Steven asked. "Ah, you should not be asking that; who would have an appetite under such circumstances?" Ethan retorted. "Ethan, it is essential that you eat. What has transpired cannot be changed, but you must nourish yourself to regain your strength. Just look at how much weight you have lost in less than twenty-four hours," Steven advised. "I will eat later; I am simply not hungry at the moment," Ethan replied. "Alright then, I suppose I

    "Hmm, very well, enlighten me on how you executed this," Jane insisted. "Well, I had his computer hacked, which provided me with easy access to his information. I reviewed his client list, and one of the VIP clients caught my attention. Consequently, I embezzled a substantial sum from the VIP client’s account into Ethan's account, ensuring he was not notified of the transfer.

    What is happening here, and why are you posing such an absurd question?" Anna retorted rudely. Alfie leaned in and whispered to Ethan, urging him to provide her with a brief explanation regarding the nature of his inquiry. "I was wrongfully accused of defrauding a VIP customer at work, resulting in my dismissal. I came to ascertain whether you had any connection to this matter," Ethan clarified. Anna coughed and cleared her throat. "I remain perplexed; let me ensure I understand correctly: you were framed, you lost your job, and you suspect me of being involved?" Ethan nodded, swallowing hard. At that moment, Anna raised her eyebrows in surprise and asked, "And why would you even consider that I would do something like that to you?" "Because we had some misunderstandings in the past, primarily due to Angela," Ethan explained. Anna took a deep breath and responded, "Ethan, to be frank, I genuinely do not know what you are referring to. I must confess that I was completely unawar

Your life is far more valuable than any position you have lost. If you were to die now, the job would continue, and the person responsible for your misfortune would be out there, enjoying themselves. You must gather your strength," Harper advised. "You truly do not understand. They have taken everything from me, leavi

When I provided the information, they checked my balance and discovered that the five billion pounds were in my account, leading them to conclude that I was a thief," Ethan explained through tears.

I shouted that there had been a misunderstanding," Ethan recounted. "Did they not believe you?" Alfie asked. "They did not believe me; they accused me of fabricating stories.

    I am allowing you to leave without charges, not out of leniency, but to prevent this matter from escalating further and to avert jeopardising our branch’s operations. We have concluded that you are to be fired. So Ethan, you are fired!” Ethan was taken aback, rendered speechless by the proclamation. Numerous discussions had transpired, leading to the consensus that Ethan should be terminated to mitigate potential risks, as they were uncertain of his future actions. Ethan wept and pleaded for a second chance, saying, "Sir, please allow me the opportunity to prove my innocence." "It is already too late for that, Ethan. However, all your bank accounts will be frozen for six months, and the car and house that the bank provided will also be seized as a consequence of your actions, rather than facing imprisonment," the bank manager stated. The bank confiscated everything, leaving Ethan with nothing, prompting him to weep like a child as he begged for another chance to demonstrate his i

    "I have proof that I am innocent, I was unable to access my computer since yesterday, and my laptop was not functional when I returned home either. Steven can attest to this, as he was in my office yesterday, and I am pleased that he is present," Ethan stated. The bank manager then turned to Steven and asked, "Steven, is he telling the truth?" This was the moment Steven had been anticipating, as he wished to testify as a witness, and he finally had the opportunity. "That depends on the nature of the truth you are inquiring about, sir," Steven replied. "Were you with him yesterday at his office while he was attempting to log in as he claims?" the bank manager asked. "Yes, sir, I was present," Steven confirmed. Wyatt interjected, "At what exact time was he trying to log in unsuccessfully?" "At noon, after the incident had already occurred," Steven clarified.

"Welcome home, my love. What troubles you?" Angela inquired. Ethan looked at her and, in a mumbling tone that reflected his sadness, explained, "One of my top VIP clients had five billion pounds stolen, and no one knows who is responsible. Everyone is doing their part, including me, but each time I attempt to assist, the network logs me out." "Oh, I am sorry to hear that. Perhaps you could use your laptop," Angela suggested. Ethan remained silent, as he preferred not to speak when feeling down. However, he opened his laptop to log in, only to discover that he could not access it. "I cannot even access my username and password anymore; I receive a message stating that my username and password do not exist," Ethan expressed. "Hmm, that is peculiar.
