Theo faced me with a smile. "It's fine. Just let Keith go. If he's clean, then his conscience will be clear."I seemed to have understood something from that. Theo was using this to test Keith to see whether he was in the clear or if he would hide.I nodded. "Then we'll wait." Keith soon came in while grabbing a piece of paper which he handed to Theo. "President Grant, this is the list of people who came to adjust the surveillance cameras in the last three months.""Alright, you can go.""Yes."After Keith left, I went to Theo's side and looked through the list. "There are quite a lot of people.""Yes. Mostly, it’s the copywriting department and design department that are the most prone to leaks. The team leader would often conduct investigations," Theo said calmly. I saw Keith's name for the last time. "He also went to look through the surveillance. Keith didn't hide that fact, so that means it's not him."Covering the form, Theo's expression turned thoughtful. "I don't bel

Two copies of the contract termination letter were prepared, and the process of obtaining both signatures and fingerprints was very straightforward.Finally, Theo requested Keith to send Nibel off. I took a look at Theo before finally choosing to follow him out as well. Despite being a distance away from them, I could clearly see the gaze Nibel was using to look at Keith. It was as if he were extraordinary.It was no longer as unfamiliar as before, and there seemed to be a lot in that gaze. I observed them for a bit before choosing to return to the office to prevent them from seeing me.I picked up the contract termination letter and looked over it before turning to Theo. "Theo, won't it be difficult for you to explain to the shareholders if you terminate the contract this hastily?""Nibel coming here means that he’s determined. Even if we didn't agree with him, so what?"I could hear a hint of helplessness in Theo's voice. I was similarly powerless. Standing in front of t

I thought that the haze would pass soon and did not expect another obstacle to follow soon after.I learned it through the news.Keith had jumped ship.I was not very sure about it at first, but then I arrived at Grant Corporation and realized that all the personal items on Keith’s table were gone.When I entered the office, I saw Theo sitting in his seat, looking a little lonely."Theo," I whispered.He turned his chair around to look at me while putting on a smile. "You’ve been coming over quite diligently recently.”There was bitterness hidden in his smile. He was still trying to put up a front.I lowered my gaze, and when I looked up again, there was clarity in them. "Have you hired yourself a new assistant?”"Not yet."It made sense. It was not easy to find another assistant who was as capable as Keith.I pursed my lips. After hesitating for a long time, I finally asked, “Will I do?”Theo was stunned as if he had not expected me to ask this. He asked me again as if to

In just two days, I handed over all my work from Green Orange.Fortunately, Shannon came back in a good state. I was a lot more relieved that Shannon would be helping Marius out with Green Orange.That morning, I took care of my last task at Green Orange before driving to Grant Corporation.I heard someone whispering the moment I stepped into the company."Keith really left the company. I passed by President Grant's office the other day and it was really empty.”"Did he really go over to Pristine as the news said?""Most likely. President Grant treated Keith so well. I didn't expect him to actually jump ship. I heard he’s the one who leaked the distributor's benefits.”People liked to gossip. If one made guesses, there would be another who would believe it.Despite the few of them looking surprised as they surrounded each other to hear the news, they were also somewhat convinced.I stepped forward and reprimanded them, "You guys ought to be working during work hours.”"Ah, ye

That afternoon, I was in line buying lunch and had not yet recovered from Keith betraying Theo.After I absent-mindedly got lunch, I was about to walk back to the company when I saw Keith at the intersection. He was with Nibel. They were probably working nearby.Disregarding everything that had happened, I walked up to Keith. He was stunned when he saw me but then greeted me politely, "President Lane."Ignoring Nibel who was next to him, I looked into Keith's eyes. I wondered if I was hallucinating because his once clear eyes were now cloudy.Images from the surveillance video flashed through my mind as I asked out loud, "Did you leak the distributor's benefits?"I caught a trace of surprise in Keith's eyes the moment I said that. I already knew the answer, but I wanted to hear it from his own mouth.Before he could answer, however, Nibel replied on his behalf."President Lane, don’t you find it inappropriate to just suddenly appear and point fingers at my assistant?”My mood t

Back at the company, I wondered if I should tell Theo about having met Keith and Nibel. I had been a little absent-minded while we ate lunch because of that.Theo reached his hand out and shook it in front of me, the corners of his mouth curving upward slightly. "What are you thinking?"I put down the chopsticks. I figured I should tell him.Theo needed to know Keith's position at least.I looked at Theo. Truthfully, I still could not bear it. It felt like I was pouring salt on Theo's injured heart.As if seeing how conflicted I was, Theo covered the back of my hand. "Didn’t we say we wouldn’t have secrets between us?”"I just met Keith and Nibel," I whispered, looking up carefully to observe Theo's reaction.I noticed the corner of his mouth twitch before he broke into a smile. Theo turned his gaze to me. "You must not have controlled yourself and gone up to scold him, huh?”Although Theo was right, he looked as if it was obvious that I was violent.I pursed my lips and lower

“President Zus, we’ve been working together for so long. Why do you suddenly want to terminate the contract?"Theo signaled me to hand the phone over to him. I did as he requested, thinking that he must have a way to stop President Zus from wanting to terminate the contract. Instead, what he actually said was, "Okay, President Zus. Let’s find a time to sign the termination agreement."I snatched the phone back from him after the call ended. "Why did you agree with him so quickly?""There’s no need to ask for his reason. We all know it.” Theo smiled.I was crestfallen. "I didn't expect Keith to be so heartless as to actually take the project away.""If anyone else calls to terminate the contract, just say yes," Theo informed me as if having anticipated what was to come.No longer having the mind to eat, I close the lid. "These projects are with clients who we’ve been working with for a long time. It’s a pity to lose them. It’ll also impact Grant Corporation. What will people out t

The next few days, I received consecutive calls from partners requesting for the termination of contracts. I did as Theo said and agreed with everyone. After printing out the contract termination agreements, I brought the thick stack of documents to Theo's office and placed them in front of him. "I get a call requesting for the contract to be terminated as long as Keith was involved in the project.”Theo just glanced at the stack before saying, "Yes, they probably don't want to sign it in person. Just stamp it and then send it over." He placed the official seal in front of me.This course of action was such a play down as if they were just a few small companies that were not worth mentioning. However, the companies that wanted to terminate their contracts were all well-known companies in the country. Even the smallest company was doing great in Whaldorf City. All their projects coincidentally involved Ketih. It did not feel like it was something that happened overnight."Nibel wan
