Sophia had seen Olivia as a fearless newcomer.
She didn’t expect Olivia to be a fox that had made early preparations to counter the problem.
“Olivia, I accidentally sent the photos in the group chat. I didn’t expect things to be out of control.
“How about this? I’ll credit you for this project’s performance.” She tried to appease Olivia.
In fact, Olivia was actually trying to trick Sophia into telling the truth because she believed that this wasa plot of that
mastermind.
Like a pair of eyes hidden in the darkness, the mastermind had been keeping an eye on her actions.
Olivia snorted. “Do you think that I lack that credit?”
“What do you want? It has gotten out of control. It’s too late for me to retrieve the photos.”
“What are the other photos you have?” Compared to this, Olivia was more concerned if Sophia hadtaken a photo of her and Ethan together.
Sophia sighed. “What more could I have? These are the only photos I took. If there were others, Iwould’ve shared them as
well.
“I simply wanted to let off some steam. I didn’t expect it to end up this way. How about I help clear yourname?”
Olivia smirked. “Clear my name? Is that gonna help me in any way? They’ll just think that I feel guiltyand that I’m trying to join hands with you.
“Give me the other photos or I’ll expose the fact that you’re the one who had slept with Mr. Lincoln.”
“I … I don’t have other photos. I would’ve shared them if I had them.”
Olivia stepped closer to her. “Do you not have them or do you just refuse to give them to me?”
“Olivia, what do you mean?”
“Tell me, who gave you those photos?” demanded Olivia.
Having spent so much time with Ethan, his demeanor had rubbed off her shoulder.
As she drew the distance closer, Sophia was slowly driven to the end of her wits by guilt.
Nervous, Sophia wondered where Olivia learned to be this intimidating.
“I-”
“There’s a limit to my patience. Ms. Linden, how do you expect me to sit still and do nothing afteryou’ve ruined my reputation?
“I’m a newcomer anyway. Worst-case scenario, I’ll be fired, but it’s different for you.”
Olivia walked up to Sophia’s side and placed her hand on the latter’s shoulder.
She whispered into Sophia’s ear, “Once I share those photos, what will happen when Mr. Miller findsout how you got the deal?
“How will he perceive you? If it goes viral online, what will happen to Miller Group’s reputation?”
Sophia’s body was trembling.
Olivia added, “If you’re fired, I’m afraid there will be no room for you to climb higher in status. How longdid it take you to come this far? Will you be able to work at a company like Miller Group?”
Color drained from Sophia’s face. Her voice was quivering too. “Stop! Enough! I’ll tell you who it was.”
Olivia smiled. “Good. I should at least know who wants to bring me down. Why do you want to take theblame for someone
“Jackson Yancey? Who is he?” Olivia was surprised because she assumed the culprit to be one of thesecretaries.
“The manager of the Marketing Department. I’m not close to him. I found it strange when he sent methose photos out of the blue,” replied Sophia.
Olivia scrolled up to the early chat history. They didn’t talk about anything aside from work.
Thus, she couldn’t tell whether they were on good terms or not.
Her heart sank to the pit of her stomach, as it seemed like there were a lot of bad guys within thecompany.
Sophia looked at her carefully. “Olivia, you saw it. I’m not lying. I simply wanted revenge by chasing youout with the rumor.
“But I’m not the mastermind, or I could’ve shared the photos with every department within a shortperiod alone.novelbin
“You have to trust me. I know that it’ll affect our department negatively if things get out of control. Isimply wanted to let off some steam. I don’t want to ruin my career.”
“Got it.”
“What about the video you recorded?”
Olivia coldly said, “I won’t leave the company for now. As long as you don’t offend me, you’re safe.Otherwise, I’ll make you leave the company without dignity.”
