Nyla’s eyes were cold. “I didn’t do it and won’t admit to it.”

Spencer sighed, “Ms. Jayston, it’s not about whether you admit it or not right now.”

The evidence was clear. If Prospectus Technology decided to sue, it would almost certainly go through.

Nyla remained silent for a few seconds before quietly saying, “Give me three days.”

Spencer replied, “I need to consult the board on this. The development of this asthma medication has cost the company hundreds of millions, and the board is very concerned. I can’t make this decision on my

own.

Nyla nodded. “Alright, I understand. Thank you, Mr. Hogg.”

After Spencer and the others left, Melody quickly moved to Nyla’s side. “Nyla, I believe you didn’t do this. Think carefully–was there anyone who might have accessed your computer last week?”

Nyla lowered her gaze. The email had been scheduled for 1:30 p.m., meaning either someone controlled her computer remotely or used it during her lunch break to set up the email.

Sensing the pressure from Damon, Nyla met his gaze directly and nodded. “Yes.”

“What’s your take on this? Do you have any suspects?” Damon asked.

Nyla hesitated, her lips pressed together. “You believe it wasn’t me?”

“Yes, I have a few suspects,” she replied.

After Nyla provided the names of those she suspected might have had access to her computer, Damon immediately asked Spencer to have the IT department investigate those employees‘ computers.

The IT department soon reported back, indicating that none of the employees‘ computers showed anomalies or had software capable of controlling others‘ computers.

Noticing her pale expression, Damon spoke softly. “Don’t jump to conclusions. Think carefully–have you noticed anything unusual recently?” Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

Nyla shook her head “No… and the scheduled email was sent during lunch. Since I’m a light sleeper, if someone had accessed my computer, I would have-

Before she could finish, her voice trailed off as she suddenly recalled something odd.

Nyla usually took a 30–minute nap, but for the past two weeks, she had been waking up only after the alarm rang several times.

Initially, she had attributed this to fatigue, but upon reflection, she realized her sleep had become unusually deep recently.
