Married a Secret Billionaire
Chapter 1428

Meanwhile, Zuko observed the situation calmly as if it had nothing to do with him. His indifferent attitude perplexed the board members. Renee recomposed herself and sneered, "Jade, you don't want to fetch it because you know Lena's personnel file is blank, right?" Jade glanced at her with a disdainful smile.

"Who knows if someone like Lena has a clean past?!" Renee turned hysterical. "If her background is spotless, why wouldn't she dare include her parents' names? Why wouldn't she dare to reveal her past?! "She's hiding it deliberately! Don't think that I don't know anything since I'm rarely here. I know that this is against the Thompson Group's regulations!"

At this point, a few board members chimed in.

"That's right! She's quite suspicious. Is she really from the sales department?"

"We're a big corporation, after all. We should be cautious about personnel matters!"

"Ms. Neale, perhaps you could help us fetch that employee's information. Maybe there's a misunderstanding. If we figure it out together, we can explain it to Ms. Thompson."

Jade looked at Zuko, who watched on without a word.

Renee smirked with satisfaction.

Unfortunately, she didn't know that Zuko had already received surveillance footage from the HR department's entrance on his phone. This footage captured her and Jacquelin's actions from the other day. Once the discussions had mostly settled, Zuko slowly stood up with a faint smile.

"Renee is right," he said in a deep voice. "The Thompson Group does have a rule that employee profiles must be filled out completely upon entry, with no deliberate omissions.

"But..." His gaze was as sharp as a blade as he turned to Renee. "How did you know that Lena's profile is blank?"

"I..." Renee's heart dropped.

Originally, she had intended to direct Jade to retrieve Lena's information and display it in front of everyone. Yet, due to her emotions getting the better of her, she had accidentally let it slip. Her expression changed, and she stared at Zuko, unable to speak.

"The Thompson Group also has another rule." Zuko's voice remained cold. "For vital departments, such as finance and HR, unauthorized entry is equivalent to jeopardizing the company's interests." He raised his hand, and his assistant immediately projected the surveillance footage onto the big screen.

Renee's mind went blank.

She had clearly taken advantage of the blind spots that day! How was it that this video had captured her every feature so clearly?

"No, it's not like this..." Her attempted defense seemed feeble. "Zuko, listen to me! I was misled by Jacquelin that day... Yes, it was her! She intended to sell the company's client data for personal gain!" "Is that so?" Zuko looked at her coldly. "Unfortunately, you can't confront her about it now."

"What are you saying?"

"You might meet her in prison."

Renee's body went limp, and she fell from her chair, landing on the floor in a daze.

At that point, none of the board members dared to speak up for her again.

Zuko recalled Nicholas' request and approached Renee slowly, stopping beside her.

"A shareholder's action that jeopardizes the company's interests can result in the company reclaiming their shares," Zuko enunciated each word mechanically.

He then produced a document with Nicholas' signature. "Renee, even though my parents-in-law are reclaiming your shares, they don't want to see you end up in prison. They've already done everything they can for you."
