Shireen was the one who raised her hand. Bianca frowned. Virus infection was no small matter, especially one that made them lose all their design data. They had to redo everything, and someone might have stolen their ideas. "Was there anything out of the ordinary when you left?" She asked. "I'm not sure," Shireen answered timidly, "I received a file from a client last night. Before I could see it, the building security asked me to leave." The management was quite strict in enforcing the rules of the building. When Bianca rented the office, it was stated on the contract that no one was allowed to stay in the office past midnight. She did not think too much of it before signing. After all, it was only a small company. "Did you shut down your computer before you left?" Bianca asked. Shireen bit her lip. She realized that she might not have done so. Her face turned pale, and she shook her head. "How could you leave without shutting down your computer? Do you know that eve
When Bianca saw Jason coming into her office, she realized why Sue was yelling earlier. Sue hated Jason for how he handled his previous relationship. "Why are you here, Mr. Doyle?" Bianca was not fond of Jason for the same reason, but she appreciated his work ethic. Moreover, he was Luke's assistant, so she had to be courteous to him. Jason was quite flustered at the moment after being yelled at. "Mr. Crawford asked me to help you, Madam." "Do you know how to fix a computer?" Bianca chuckled. She knew that Luke would interfere, but she did not expect that Jason would be the one coming. "What can that idiot possibly know?" Sue was not done dressing down Jason yet. She saw Jason go into Bianca's office and, under the pretense of delivering a cup of coffee to Bianca, continued to mock him. Indeed, Jason did not possess much technical knowledge outside of his scope of work. He had told Sue that before. "Mr. Crawford asked me to investigate the incident," Jason explained. "W
Bianca massaged her tired eyes. "No. This client is quite picky." Luke sat down next to her and handed her the glass of milk. "You didn't eat dinner earlier. Have some milk." Bianca took a sip and reflexively licked the milk stains on her lips. It seemed quite seductive. Luke could feel his urges rising when he saw that. He bent over and kissed her. Bianca cried out in surprise and nearly dropped the glass of milk in her hand. Instinctively, she leaned toward the man. Luke's tongue carefully traced the shape of her lips. They tasted the sweetness of the milk between their mouths, which heightened the sensation of the kiss. Bianca could not resist Luke's passion. He only let go of her when the air in her lungs was almost depleted. "Bea…" Luke's voice was hoarse and seductive. Bianca gasped for air as she leaned on her. She would feel so spent every time after they kissed. "No." She could sense that Luke was planning something else, and she grabbed his hands. "I still n
When Bianca returned to the office, she noticed that everyone was listless. After a brief meeting, she went into her office and revised the proposal. Sue walked in and said with envy in her eyes, "Ms. Rayne, you’re pretty efficient, aren’t you?" "Luke helped me out." Bianca was not one to take Luke's credit. As she spoke, she texted a client to come over to the office to review the revised artwork in the afternoon. The dark circles under Sue’s eyes were obvious. She held her chin, then sighed and said leisurely, "It's a great thing to have someone help you, unlike me. The twins tortured me all night. When I finally had time to work on the designs, it was already dawn." Bianca put down her phone and smiled apologetically as she said, "You’ve been working hard, and taking care of children takes a lot of energy. How about this? Hand over one of your urgent projects and I’ll take care of it." "No worries! If Mr. Crawford finds out, he’ll kill me." Sue refused Bianc
Bianca noticed that Sue's eyes were flickering with jealousy. Sue suppressed the loss she felt in her heart and raised a glass to Bianca. "Ms. Rayne, our company has overcome a crisis, we should celebrate. Cheers!" Bianca smiled and took a sip of wine. With Sue starting it off, the other employees were itching to have a toast with Bianca as well. "You’re not allowed to get Ms. Rayne drunk. She has a family. If she goes back drunk, she’ll have a hard time explaining herself. If you want to drink, drink with me." Sue stood guard in front of Bianca. She wanted to remind Sue that she also had two kids to take care of, but then she thought that perhaps Sue wanted to get drunk to get some thoughts out of her head. Everyone who worked in T Corporation was like family. Even if Sue got drunk, she would be taken care of. As such, Bianca went along with it. The other side. After Bianca left home, Luke had driven to the airport. Maxine Douglas walked ou
Luke's words made Maxine overjoyed but Allison was annoyed. He was kind to every woman except her. He was cold and indifferent to her as though there was a deep hatred between them. Allison glanced at Maxine, who looked like a young girl in love and decided to please her. Half an hour later, Luke stood up and said, "Let's go." "Luke?" Maxine looked up curiously and wondered what was going on. ‘Why are we leaving before the food is served?’ "Your luxury meal is at the door." Luke slowly tidied his coat, not allowing a single wrinkle. Maxine did not understand what was happening but she stood up anyway. Luke opened the door and several police officers rushed in. "Ah!" Allison was dumbfounded. "Luke, what's happening?" Luke kept quiet while the officer asked, "Is there a Ms. Maxine Douglas here?" Allison looked at Maxine and asked in a sharp tone, "Maxine, what have you done?" Her voice hurt Maxine’s ears. If it had been in the past,
Shireen felt like her innocence had been proven. She stood up and asked, "Who did it?" Jason said, "The person who downloaded the virus on the computer was David Muller, the security guard on duty in the building that night. He inserted a USB that carried the virus into a computer that was not turned off and it attacked all the computers connected to the internet. This person has been apprehended by the police and has confessed that the main culprit is Maxine Douglas of Capital Corp." Bianca listened and was not surprised. She had guessed it when she saw the handcuffs on Maxine. Shireen cried because she was finally able to prove her innocence. During the last couple of weeks, although Bianca had not said anything to her, her colleagues had all acted differently around her. They were extra careful when they were working on new designs around her as though they were afraid that she would steal their designs. In order not to annoy others, she tried her best
Old Master Crawford stood up and said with a cold expression, "Let’s talk in the study." Bianca paused and gave a wry smile. Old Master Crawford was not a fan of her and did not want to talk in front of her. She continued to walk into the kitchen while holding her children’s hands. Luke glanced at his wife and children before going upstairs with Old Master Crawford. In the study, there was a game of chess on the table that was in progress. Old Master Crawford played by himself and did not bother to look up at Luke, who sat opposite of him. He asked, "Is the company okay?" "T Corporation is doing great." Luke took out his phone from his jacket and showed Old Master Crawford a video. "I came over to show you a video." Old Master Crawford stopped and looked up. "What video?" Luke did not hand over the phone immediately. His deep-set eyes were filled with emotions that others could not read as he said, "Grandpa, you like Maxine?" Old Master Craw
