<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Adrian was now fully alert and had installed a security camera in the room for emergencies.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Upon hearing this, Niel immediately ordered a search for the video footage. However, after a thorough inspection, there was no sign of any cameras,</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Adrian’s heart sank when he learned that the camera was missing. “How could it not be there? I installed it myself!”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">No sooner had he finished speaking than Miranda stormed over, furious. “Adrian, you b’stard! Is this what you said you’d be doing with the money?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">The couple quickly found themselves in a heated argument.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nichs arrived and, upon assessing the situation, turned to Niel, “Grandpa, with Adrian’s reputation taking a hit, I think he should take a break for a while.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">This suggested Adrian was about to lose his position.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Having fought his way back to headquarters, Adrian refused to back down. “Are you serious? You expect me to resign over something so trivial?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nichs fixed Adrian with an icy gaze. “Our clients have concerns about your integrity and no longer want to work with you. What other solution do you propose!”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">His retort left Adrian speechless.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">At that moment, Niel wasn’t in a position to support Adrian and could only agree. “Your actions have disgraced the Rainsworth family. It’s in your best interest to take a break.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Miranda, however, was unwilling to ept the decision. “Grandpa, are you really going to let him off so easily? After what he’s done, how am I supposed to exin this to my parents?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Just days ago, she had been proudly boasting about how wonderful her husband was. Now, her own words felt like a painful reminder of her humiliation.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Niel waved it off dismissively. “Miranda, men can be fickle, you need to learn to be more forgiving. But Adrian is at fault here. Apologize to her immediately.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Adrian wasted no time. “I’m sorry, Miranda, but I’ve been wrongfully used, I swear. I’m innocent.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“What about the money? Miranda wasn’t ready to drop the subject.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">At the mention of the money, Adrian’s expression darkened. “I did use it for an investment.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“What project did you invest in? Where’s the location?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Adrian was momentarily at a loss for words.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">His fists clenched as his voice grew colder. I need to find Cecilia to get i never forget</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">the money back and make sure that b*tch learns a lesson she’ll</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Despite his extensive experience, Adrian found himself outmaneuvered by a woman. Now, he had lost not only his position but also his wealth.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Seeing him unable to justify his actions, Miranda, in a fit of rage, disregarded her image and pped him in front of everyone.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Adrian couldn’t let his family discover that he had been willing to spend five hundred million just for a night with Cecilia Things will get even messier if the Rainsworths find out.</font></font>
Meanwhile, Cecilia, at herpany, had alsoe across the news report.
By the afternoon, office gossip had spread like wildfire. Everyone had seen the public rtions report stating that Adrian had voluntarily resigned. “Finally, those two annoying people are leaving. Unbelievable! Thank God, or we’d be dealing with their
“Exactly! It’s all good now.”
Adrian’s brief return to headquarters had already stirred up a surprising amount of dissatisfaction, an urrence that was quite umon.
“Hoss, you’ve truly upheld justice. I wonder who’s going to be the next sales department manager” Charlotte mused, sitting across from Cecilia with her head bowed in thought.
Cecilia had no idea either. They might just appoint someone out of nowhere I guess
She couldn’t help but wish she could see how Adrian and Miranda were faring now.
After packing up her things, she left work early,
As she approached the house, she faintly overheard the housekeepers whispering. “Miranda was ruthless. She hit her husband as if she wanted to kill him.”
“Well, Adrian’s just an illegitimate child, born to some outsider woman. If he had been the eldest son of the master’s wife, Miranda wouldn’t have daredy a finger on him,” another added.
