Vanya headed to the bus stop and began her morning routine: going to work. This time, she truly went to work instead of wandering around the city and lying to Henriella. After three days off, she felt refreshed and ready to start another busy day at Autoekomsten. As she hopped into the bus, the girl couldn’t stop thinking about what she should do next to get the car spare part product blueprint.

Since she met Gustav and made a deal to give him the necessary document, Vanya kept daydreaming about what she could have once that German man paid her a hefty amount. She could just take her family move to French where her mother used to live and have a slow yet peaceful life, but Vanya held back.

Money was the reason. Despite the amount of wage she received from working at Kevin’s company was huge, Vanya thought it wasn’t enough to live in the neighboring country, even in the rural countryside area. Another thought came to her mind as she looked at the old and scratched smartphone in he

    A knock at the door made Ned's attention distracted for a second.

    It had been a few days since the bullying took place, raising hell in Vanya’s life. The job that she used to enjoy before, had now felt so mundane and boring. It seemed the negativity and toxic people around her had somehow influenced her in one way or another.‌Pantry was one of the few spots in the office that Vanya found relaxing.

He leaned in closer, giving her his full attention as she began to share her suspicions about the source of the bullying.‌"Mr. Kevin," Vanya started, her voice tinged with a mix of frustration and sadness, "I believe that the root of this bullying might stem from jealousy.

However, somehow my salary is much higher than expected, which has caused discontent among some of my colleagues."‌Kevin's eyebrows furrowed in confusion. He had personally approved Vanya's salary, but he couldn't recall the specifics. "Vanya, are you suggesting that your salary is the reason behind these acts of bullying? But how is that possible?

I'll do my best."‌Just then, Idna, Vanya's mischievous younger sister, entered the kitchen with a playful smirk on her face. "Well, well, well, look at you, big shot secretary.

As he prepared to leave his office, Vanya approached him with a reminder about the upcoming meeting.‌"Mr. CEO, we have the meeting with the department heads in fifteen minutes," Vanya said, her voice confident and composed. "It's the last one before lunch, and I thought it might be helpful if I attended and took notes on the key points for you."‌Kevin paused for a moment, considering Vanya's suggestion.

    With meticulous precision, Vanya carefully executed her plan to secure the stolen data and erase any trace of her involvement.
