Chapter 58 - Chapter 58: Product Development Information Leaked

  Since the last time, Ethan said he was going to raise her "salary", on the day of the call, the two million dollars had indeed arrived, and Vanessa, who was still eating in the company's cafeteria, was so happy that she was humming directly.

  "What happened? So happy!" Olivia Bennett looked at Vanessa with surprise.

  Since the last time, Olivia Bennett knew that Vanessa's identity was special, she was still a bit terrified about her job not being secure if she found out the secret.

  But Vanessa had simply explained it to her the next day at work and told her to keep it to herself.

  "Rich and thinking of traveling somewhere." Vanessa smiled happily.

  "Hmph, let the boss make the arrangements." Olivia Bennett smiled vaguely at Vanessa.

  ...

  "Boss, Esposito Group released the listing announcement for XXX today, and the patent drawing is exactly the same as the finished product developed on the 49th floor!" Luca Bianchi took out a stack of documents and reported to Ethan Blackwood.

  Ethan Blackwood received the documents, after reading them, his brows were tightly frowned, "pop--"the documents were slammed on the desktop.

  "Check! Our company made such a big mistake, and only reported to me now?"

  "I've already found out that it's...It's Miss Monroe." Luca Bianchi had some difficulty in speaking.

  "How could it be her?" Ethan Blackwood's eyes instantly went cold and hard like frost condensation.

  "The office surveillance looks normal, of which only two of us in the secretarial department had access to the R&D materials."

  "One is Olivia Bennett and the other is Vanessa Monroe. our tech guys traced it through the computers and found that only Vanessa Monroe's computer had traces of transferring R&D materials." Luca Bianchi explained.

  "Send me the traces of the surveillance and investigation to see!"

  ...

  "Vanessa, check the company group!" Olivia Bennett alerted Vanessa, who had just gone to pick up a glass of juice and returned to her lounge chair.

  "What's going on?" Vanessa was confused.

  "Check it out!" Olivia Bennett disliked Vanessa on her phone as an announcement appeared in the company group about the leak of R&D product information on the 49th floor.

  "The last people to take over the product information of this R&D were the two of us!" Olivia Bennett's face turned a little white, of course, she knew it wasn't her and Vanessa, but after it passed through their hands and ended up being leaked, they were the biggest suspects.

  "But it's not like we leaked it what are you panicking about, the company has surveillance, isn't it obvious who leaked it?" Vanessa consoled Olivia Bennett, after all, pursuing legal responsibility is all about evidence.

  "What you said is also true!" Olivia Bennett was relieved.

  "But don't you think the company is afraid of an insider destroying the evidence if they make such a big deal about the theft of product information?" Vanessa was a bit puzzled.

  "Seems like it ha, but I guess the company also found the evidence and the mole to make a little announcement!" Olivia Bennett chimed in with a casual remark.

  "It shouldn't be any of our business, just do things as usual."

  "Uh-huh, the damage caused by the leakage of product information this time should be 5 billion dollars, this mole is absolute! So bold!" Olivia Bennett took a sip of water to suppress her shock.

  "Vanessa Monroe! come to Boss's office!" Luca Bianchi dialed Vanessa's intercom and coldly informed her.

  Vanessa was bewildered, what was she being asked for in the middle of the day?

  "Ohhhh ok!" Vanessa suppressed the doubt and walked towards Ethan Blackwood's office.

  ...

  "Do you know what I've asked you to do?" Ethan Blackwood looked to Vanessa who had a normal expression on her face.

  "I don't know?" Vanessa was puzzled, she was about to ask Ethan what she was doing.

  "Did you know about the company's product development information leak?" Ethan involuntarily tapped his pen on the table.

  "Just found out, why?" Vanessa was still confused, asking her what for?

  "Who the mole is, I already know." Ethan's voice turned cold with a slight edge of anger.

  "Good to find out! I knew the company should be able to solve it quickly!" Vanessa pulled the obligatory 'social-animal' ass-kissing smile on her face despite her disbelief.

  "And you won't admit it?!"Ethan's voice turned louder as the pen was slammed onto the desktop!

  There was a "pop-"that startled Vanessa, snapping out of it in a daze! He thought the murderer was her!

  "So you're saying the mole is me?" Vanessa pointed at her chest with a very angry expression.

  If she had the courage and intelligence to leak this R&D product information she would have robbed a bank long ago, why would she need to continue signing this bullshit contract with him?

  "All the evidence points to you! How come the money given to you isn't enough?!" Ethan sneered.

  "What evidence?" Vanessa suppressed the anger in her heart and spoke calmly, "I want to see it!"

  "See for yourself!" Ethan turned his computer towards Vanessa and threw the file in his hand to Vanessa!

  Vanessa carefully examined it and found that in the surveillance video indeed she was submitting the file normally, but there were extra traces on her computer of transferring the product development information to an email address and then deleting it.

  Vanessa frowned, "How could it be? It can't be, it's not me! It's not like I know this person!"

  "Why don't you admit it?!"Ethan's expression became even colder, "Here is the content of your conversation with that person."
