The Woman From Hell
Chapter 1617

Chapter 1617



Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Theo was pissed, but Ruby still had the audacity to serve us coffee without a change of expression.

"President Grant, I've dealt with all the things you ordered me to. The receptionist, Zoey, still has a bunch of things she hasn't done, yet she was busy bringing in coffee, so I thought of lending her a helping hand."

I noticed that Cindy began to look at Ruby with interest and started scrutinizing her, not only was she observing her acting skills, it was more like she was mocking her internally.

Could such people still have love for their colleagues?

Theo glanced at the coffee and then looked toward Ruby, "Did you find the person I asked you to find on the surveillance camera?"

Ruby froze and she put down the coffee pot, she then looked at Theo and replied in a serious manner, "President Grant, I've carefully checked the video. The people who came in and out of Keith's office that day were our people, and you've specifically given permission for Keith's office to not have surveillance, so..."

She paused without continuing.

Keith's office was, in fact, equipped with surveillance, but not many people knew about this.

On the second day of the incident, Keith took the initiative to put the video on Theo's desk. Without looking at the video, Theo and I could already guess who did it.

However, Keith still let us watch the video just in case.

Indeed, only people from our company went it, and the only person to have touched Keith's computer was Ruby, who was standing right in front of us.

The good thing was that her purpose in moving the file was very simple, she just wanted to attract attention of Theo.

The missing files had tracking codes on them, and Keith had someone search up the files already, they were not exfiltrated.

In view of Ruby still being useful to the company, Theo did not make this matter public.

"Keith and I had carefully

investigated, and we came to the

conclusion that we might have

accidentally copied the file to another USB drive as a backup. We wanted to bring it to the office to show you, but we forgot, I hope you don't blame Keith for this. He's usually busy with a lot of things, so forgetting is normal, but the good thing is that it's not exfiltrated."

Her smile was as sweet as always, I could not help but be impressed by her. The fact that she could lie while staring straight into the eyes of Theo, I had to say she did have

some guts.

I could tell that Cindy, who had just arrived, was suspicious of her behavior as well, but it did not seem like the right time to make a move.

Theo was silent for a few seconds, then he picked up the file and dismissed her.

"Then, just focus on the job at hand, if you want to be a receptionist, just write an application to the personnel."

This was already considered Theo's" gentlest" warning.

Ruby stopped smiling and looked somewhat wronged. "Okay, President Grant."

After that, she picked up the coffee pot and poured two more cups of coffee. One was placed squarely in front of me, while the other was handed to Cindy.

Although it was just a simple act of serving coffee, I could clearly see her hand slanting more and more as if she was about to fall down.

I saw that the cup of coffee was

about to be poured onto Cindy, but before could grab Ruby, Cindy picked up the folder next to her and wayed it with force, which sent the coffee cup flying,

The coffee that was supposed to be

splashed onto Cindy was now splashed all over Ruby.
