Chapter 115
Helen smiled. "Alright then. I'm going to make dinner."
Willow had always been a good child, so she couldn't possibly cause any trouble.
Most of the lights at Hughes Corporation were switched off at night, leaving only the ones illuminating the corridors.
This towering building was the tallest and most imposing in all of Buscen City.
The area around the building was bustling with neon lights lighting up the night.noveldrama
Security guards were patrolling each floor of Hughes Corporation.
Edith evaded the security guards on the 57th floor and slipped into the control room. She easily found the main computer and was about to delete the security footage.
Suddenly, the lights in the control room came on with a click. The entire room became bright.
Edith's heart sank as she realized that something was wrong. She got ready to escape.
The control room's door swung open and reporters flooded in. They began snapping photos of Edith, blinding her with camera flashes.
Edith covered her face at once and roared, "What are you doing? Delete these photos or I'll sue all of you!"
The reporters weren't fazed by her threat. A bold reporter went over to her with a microphone and held it towards her. "Ms. Price, tell us what made you betray Hughes Corporation by selling their design to Ziegler Corporation? Was it due to benefits?" Edith panicked. She pushed the microphone away and snapped, "What nonsense are you spouting?! I didn't betray Hughes Corporation!"
"Is that so? Then why are you trying to delete the security footage? Isn't it because you're guilty?" The reporter moved the microphone back to Edith.
The other reporters surrounded Edith and bombarded her with questions as well.
Like a stray cat trapped in a cage, Edith was flustered and terrified. She tried to bare her fangs to escape, but it didn't work.
Lights flashed one after another, lighting up the room as the reporters desperately tried to take more photos of Edith.
Edith was blinded by the flash and her heart was pounding hard.
"Mr. Hughes is here!" someone shouted all of a sudden.
The reporter paused and turned to see the silhouette of a tall and striking man standing at the door.
His intimidating presence feltor.
the arrival of a deity.
The reporters swarmed over to him but stopped about a meter away. His aura was so powerful that they
would get any closer. They
interviewed him at this distance. "Mr. Hughes, how will Hughes Corporation deal with a spy?"
Jasper's gaze was as cold as ice.
He said, "This is a Hughes Corporation incident. Do I need to teach you how to write your articles?"
The reporters exchanged glances and understood the underlying meaning of his words. They put their cameras away and left the room.
Edith was shuddering in fear when
she saw Jasper. After a while, she calmed herself down and
straightened up. She tried her lucket
by going over to Jasper and

explained, "Mr. Hughes, I was just trying to see if Willow did collude
with someone on the 57th floor..."
"Ms. Price, did you think it was a coincidence that you overhead me telling Tyson about the footage?" Jasper looked at her coldly.
Edith was stunned. A thought came to mind and she finally understood.
Her eyes widened in shock and disbelief. Tears began to well up in her eyes as her lips trembled. She shook her head. "No, this isn't happening..." How could Jasper be so cruel to her?
He had let her overhear his call to Tyson asking for the security footage of the 57th floor all for the sake of luring her here to delete it.
"Ms. Price, I gave you a chance because you have been loyal to Hughes Corporation for seven years," Jasper said darkly with a tone as cold as ice.
