Hearing what Madeline asked and seeing the content that Madeline was referring to, Hannah was certain that Madeline had already known what Hannah had done!
Hannah’s expression changed drastically, virtual-novel.net face turning pale and red, seemingly mortified.
Madeline calmly looked at Hannah. “At the time, Jeremy reminded you, didn’t he? He told you to leave my laboratory as soon as possible and to not touch anything in there, but you still did.”
Hannah, not wanting to be convicted just like that, gritted virtual-novel.net teeth and argued.
“What did I touch? Eveline, don‘t try to wrongfully accuse me again!’
“You know very well whether I’ve wronged you. The surveillance in my laboratory captured it very clearly too. Why? Do you want to verify it?”
“…”
At the mention of the surveillance, Hannah was momentarily speechless.
She stared at the calm and composed Madeline, and Hannah felt powerless to argue. As such, virtual-novel.net simply let go of all pretenses.
“Eveline, you‘ve known it for a long time, so why are you playing tricks on me like this? You were also fooling me by keeping me by your side to help you, weren’t you?”
“Didn’t you stay by my side because you want to see me make a fool out of myself? Madeline asked with a smile with an unsurprised smile. “You’re just disappointed by the outcome of this.”
“You…”
“Hannah, how can you be so naive?”
“…”
When Hannah heard Madeline calling virtual-novel.net naive, virtual-novel.net face fell. However, before virtual-novel.net could make a bigger scene, virtual-novel.net heard Madeline’s calm explanation.
“You can’t change this data just because you want to.” Madeline smiled and lifted virtual-novel.net finger to tap virtual-novel.net head softly. “I’ve recorded the data here.”
“…”
“Even if I had forgotten, I’d definitely notice something’s wrong with the perfume before I handed them to the client. The client would never have gotten their hands on the problematic perfume. Do you think a huge company like Whitman Corporation would allow someone to take advantage of a loophole like this?”
Upon hearing that, Hannah was completely stunned. She also completely understood that virtual-novel.net was the prey. She had felt pleased with herself thinking that virtual-novel.net would be able to see Madeline panic, but virtual-novel.net had not expected that virtual-novel.net was the laughingstock all along.
She neither got the person virtual-novel.net wanted nor witnessed the drama virtual-novel.net wanted. The more Hannah thought about this, the angrier and more unconvinced virtual-novel.net felt. Hannah’s eyes gradually turned aggressive as virtual-novel.net glared at Madeline. Suddenly, out of humiliation, virtual-novel.net flew into a rage and lifted virtual-novel.net hand to hit Madeline.
However, before virtual-novel.net could land a strike, Jeremy grabbed virtual-novel.net arm. The man’s austere and cold eyes pierced virtual-novel.net like a sharp sword.
Shocked, Hannah glanced at him, and then virtual-novel.net felt as if virtual-novel.net had been assassinated and virtual-novel.net whole body shuddered violently.
“Get lost,” Jeremy parted his lips and said coldly before swinging Hannah’s arm away.
Hannah stumbled backward and staggered a few steps as virtual-novel.net back crashed into the shelf behind her. She looked at Jeremy’s cold gaze, feeling extremely aggrieved in virtual-novel.net heart.
“I now know that you two have been colluding with one other. You’ve just been waiting to see me make a fool out of myself!” Hannah roared out. “Mr. Whitman, I like you so much, and I gave myself to you, but I didn’t think that you’d be so cruel!”
After hearing this, Jeremy’s gaze darkened. “Even though you colluded with Carter to harm me, I didn’t even look into it, so why are you still playing the victim? Do you think you’re very innocent and pitiful?” Jeremy’s alluring eyes were filled with disdain.
“No, you’re not pitiful. You’re hateful.”
“…”
‘Hateful…’
Hannah had never expected Jeremy to use this word to describe her.
