Divorced 44
Everyone was stunned and turned to see Aveline walk in. Her face. was pale, but her eyes were cold as she looked around the room. ” It’s one thing to badmouth me behind my back when I can’t hear, but if I catch you, shouldn’t you apologize?”
She made a point of looking at the people who had just insulted her.
Their eyes darted around nervously, and a male colleague stood up and said, “Why should we apologize to you? The project information you were responsible for leaked, and no one else touched your desk. We have every reason to suspect it was you!”
Aveline looked at him coldly. “So, you admit it’s just a suspicion, not concrete evidence, right?”
The male colleague stammered, looking embarrassed.
Aveline continued, “No apology? You’ve got no shame!”
Her words provoked them immediately.
“Miss Young, you made a mistake. Why should we apologize?”
“Exactly, we didn’t do anything wrong!”
“Since you said it wasn’t you, then show us that you took care of the matter.”
“Smack!”
Aveline slammed the file folder onto the table. “I regained the partnership with Brighton Enterprises. Is that enough?”
Everyone froze at her words.
“She got the partnership back?”
“Did she really? How did she do it?”

The people who had been shouting earlier were stunned. The male colleague picked up the contract and checked it, confirming it was indeed the partnership with Brighton Enterprises.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
His face turned red.
“Sorry, I was too hasty earlier.”
Though embarrassed, he apologized to Aveline.
Aveline smiled. “It’s alright, I don’t hold grudges. Let’s move on.”
The others also apologized to Aveline, and she responded to each of them in the same way.
At that moment, William returned, his face beaming with joy. “Miss Young, I heard everything! You’re amazing, getting the Brighton partnership back. Our performance is definitely secure now!”
Aveline smiled lightly. “While that’s resolved, there’s still one more issue to deal with.”
William looked puzzled. “What issue?”
Aveline’s smile vanished. “Naturally, we need to find the person who leaked the information. Such a cancer can’t be left untreated. Are we planning to keep the mole until the following year?”
William nodded. “You’re right, but we have no idea who leaked it.”
Aveline said, “I have a way to find out.”
Everyone immediately looked at her, waiting for her next move.
Aveline walked to her workstation, where a row of cute cat figurines was lined up in front of her computer, usually unnoticed.
At this moment, she picked up an orange cat and connected it to her computer with a data cable.

“I’m a cautious person. Whether it’s at home or at my workstation, even if it’s just a small area, I install a surveillance camera to prevent unexpected situations. It turned out to be useful this time.”
She worked on her computer until a surveillance video appeared on the screen. She scrolled through it and finally paused at a specific moment on the third day of her hospital stay. Someone was at her workstation.
In the video, the surrounding area was dark, clearly after work hours. The person sat down, looked around for a while, and then turned on her computer. While waiting for it to boot up, the person picked up her cat figurine and played with it, revealing his face clearly.
