“Just say it was sent to you by someone named Pete,” Damon replied.
If Pete hadn’t suddenly disappeared, Damon wouldn’t have needed to find Vrie.
“Got it,” Vrie said<b>. </b>
After their discussion, Vrie decided not to stay for dinner with Damon, as they weren’t close.
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll head out now,” she said.
Damon looked at her seriously. “Ms. Weir, please keep this matter confidential. I don’t want anyone to know that I handed you this file.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll keep it to myself,” Vrie assured him
Once Vrie left the restaurant, she went directly to N’s ce.This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.
When N saw Vrie, she was pleasantly surprised. “Vrie, what are you doing here?”
Vrie smiled. “I missed you, so I came by. Let me in first.”
N stepped aside to let her in. Once they were seated in the living room, Vrie <b>took </b>the file from her bag and handed it to N.
N took it with a puzzled expression. “What’s this?”
As soon as N opened it and read a few lines, her expression changed drastically. “Vrie, how do you <b>have </b>this?”
Seeing N’s serious demeanor, Vrie said casually, “Someone named Pete sent it to me and asked me to give it to you. Do you know him? What’s in the file?”
Vrie leaned in to take a <b>look</b>, but N quickly closed the file and asked, “Did you read this?”
Noticing N’s reluctance to share the contents, Vrie shook her head. “No, I haven’t read it. But why are you being so secretive? Is it ssified?”
N took a deep breath and replied, “Vrie, I can’t tell you what’s in the file right now. I’ll exin it to you when the time is right.”
Vrie, who generally didn’t like prying into others‘ private matters, chose not to press further.
“Alright. I have other things to do. I’ll visit you again next time,” she said.
“Okay. Let me see you out,” N replied.
At the door, N looked at Vrie with gratitude. “Vrie, thank you. This file is very important to me.”
Seeing N’s serious expression, Vrie couldn’t help but smile. “No need to thank me. We’re <b>friends</b>, after all. Take care
After Vrie left, N immediately called Pete, but his phone was off. She also sent him a message but received no <b>reply</b><b>. </b>Suspecting he might be in trouble, she transferred some money to <b>him </b>and expressed

her thank
before opening the file to review it.
The file contained evidence not only of Cyrus coborating with Clement to scheme against Harris Pharmaceuticals but also of other criminal activities involving both of them.
As N read, her frown deepened. She didn’t hear the faint sound of the door lock turning.
It wasn’t until she heard soft footsteps that she looked up in shock, her face turning pale when she saw rk. Instinctively, she closed the file and coldly asked, “What are you doing here?”
Seeing her reach for her phone on the table, rk said calmly, “N, whether you contact Damon or call the police won’t make a difference. I’m your husband. It’s only natural for me to be here.”
Ignoring his words, N<b>–</b>quickly unlocked her phone.
rk was quicker. The moment she unlocked it, he snatched her phone away.
N tried to grab it back, and the file fell to the floor. As it opened, rk nced down at it.
