"Eva, where are you? Can you come to the police station? M. Ceter has been taken in by the police. They say she's a prime suspect, and it's her former company that reported her.
"A lot of people saw it happen. What should we do? Everyone's saying Ms. Carter is going to be fired," she said, her tone tinged with urgency
My heart skipped a beat at the mention of Emma. I didn't care about the dizziness anymore and flagged down a
When arrived at the police station, I was feeling a bit better, though still a little light-headed Zack saw me and quickly came over to support me.
"You went to the hospital?" he asked.
Inodded, not hiding the truth. Zack casually picked up a strand of hair from my shoulder. I knew I was losing hair again, and this wouldn't stay hidden for long
He loved the hair into a nearby trash can and then helped me to sit down

"Now that there's a design flaw in the project, we're looking at milions in damages, and she has to take responsibilty!"This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
They spoke with righteous indignation, but seouldn't help but laugh.
Mr. Snyder, noticing me sitting nearby, frowned in displeatur.

I continued, holding up the document, "And this is sigued by the leader who supervised her, stating that Emma isn't responsible for any company projects after she left, nor is se entitled to an additional tes." Just as I was about to hand the document to the police, the two men lunged at me, trying to snatch it from my hands
Instinctively, themed away, butane of then shoved me hard
Aldy fling a bit diery, Hunched forward, about to fall.
Fortunately, Zack was quick to catch me, while the police restrained the men.
"Are you say? Do you need to go to the hospital Zack asked, his concern evident.
I shook my head. I couldn't leave and this matter was resolved.
I insisted, "The side effects of chemotherapy are too severe. Maybe you should."
"What are you all doing here? Leonard's angry voice Interrupted Zack
Zack's arms around me didn't loosen. I leaned weakly against him, unable to stand.
"Eva!" Leonard walked over, trying to approach me, bat Lily held him back..
"Len, this is a police station. Don't lose your temper," she said. Then, she shot me a suggestive look. "Mr. Boyd really takes good core of Eva, doesn't he? Holding her like that in Zack ignored them entirely, focusing on "Are you holding uplo

Leonard seemed to notice something was off with me. He pulled a piece of candy from his pocket and offered it to me

"Then why didn't you come inmediately when you knew she was in trouble? Zack reported
"Caller, when I was in the conference room with Emma, saw you heading upstairs with Lily," Zack said, casting a disdainful glance at the two before turning back to me,
No wonder he was at the police station - he must have been at the company for a meeting.
Leonard looked at me. "Exa, you're her friend. You decide."
- seeing the look on his face, I knew he'd blow up if I didn't choose Harmon Group's lawyer, I glanced at the lawyer, then nodded.

I didn't mean to offend anyone with my words, but Lily Immediately bristled
"What do you mean by that?"
Trolled my eyes at her, not wanting to continue the conversation.
But Lily wasn't ready to let it go."Eva, you're always causing trouble for the company"
"Your friend just joined the company and she's already in trouble with the police. How do you have the nerve to stay here?" she chilled
"If you have the nerve to stay after breaking a bracelet worth millions and refusing to pay, or after string trade secrets that cost the company 200 thousand dollars, then why can't?
Ishot back at her without hesitation. Seeing her face barn red with anger, I didn't feel dizzy anymore.
