“Elijah.” He called for his assistant. “Arrange for someone to take her home. She’s not been well these days, so let her rest at home.”
Elijah quickly agreed, treating Prisci with utmost respect. “Mrs. Carlton, let me take you home.”
Prisci looked coldly at Wesley and Larissa. “Scumbag and slut.”
She turned and left, her body trembling, her steps unsteady.
Wesley’s face darkened.
Larissa breathed a sigh of relief, biting her lip and softly thanking Wesley, “Wes, thank you.”
Once again, he had taken her side.
“Let’s go back to the office.” Wesley said indifferently as he left the private room.
Larissa softly replied, “Mm,” and followed in Wesley’s footsteps.
After Wesley finished his meeting at thepany, Elijah had already returned.
Wesley closed the file, feeling irritable. “How is she?”

Elijah replied, “Mrs. Carlton cried the whole way home.“‘

She hadn’t made a sound, only letting tears fall one by one.
No matter how you looked at it, the sight was heart- wrenching.
“What about the surveince footage?” Wesley asked.
Elijah handed the tablet to Wesley. On the screen was the recovered footage, showing Larissa having dinner with the rival executive that day.
From the video, it was clear that Larissa was not in good spirits. She and the other party only discussed work benefits and never mentioned the form.
So, the form leak had nothing to do with her.
His wife was being too harsh on her own sister.
“Did you find anything else?” he continued to ask.
Elijah replied, “Ms. Wilburn and the executive only met this one time, and had no other contact. The form the other party obtained was the final version adjusted by Mrs. Carlton.”
In other words, the only one who could have leaked it was Prisci.
Larissa listened quietly, pressing her hand to her chest in relief. “The innocent have nothing to fear.”
She then softly pleaded with Elijah, “Please, make sure those surveince videos are never leaked.”

“I’ll head back to R&D now.” Larissa left with small steps.
As she turned, her previously fragile expression was tinged with excitement.
It was the smile of a victor.
That’s right, she had orchestrated all of this–a wless n, step by step. Unless she confessed herself, Prisci would never find any evidence.
Even if the surveince footage was recovered, she had nothing to fear. After all, during that dinner, neither she nor the other party had mentioned the form.
And she had deliberately put on such a show to stop Prisci from checking the footage, just to deepen the rift between Prisci and Wesley.
Prisci, her dear Prisci…
She had already given Prisci a life of luxury, yet not only was Prisci ungrateful, she had repeatedly humiliated her, making everyone think her own perfumery skills were inferior.
Clearly<i>, </i>she had studied under an international master, while Prisci was just a self–taught amateur.
Why should Prisci be better than her?
There only needed to be one genius perfumer.
And Wesley…
Since Prisci kept trying to drive a wedge between her and

Prisci sat in the living room for a long time.
She waited until Wesley came home at ten o’clock.
Her eyes were swollen and red <b>as </b>she stared at him. “Wesley…”
“I’ve had the surveince footage recovered. The truth you wanted is all in there.” Wesley handed her the tablet.
Prisci immediately opened it and watched it three times. from start to finish.
“Impossible.” She murmured in a daze.
How could this be?
How could Larissa not have mentioned the form to the
other party?
Wesley took the tablet away and pulled his wife into his arms, speaking softly: “Prisci, I know you grew up with your grandmother and aren’t close to the Wilburn family, but Larissa has a good heart. She’s not that kind of person.”
“It’s fine if you don’t like her, but you can’t just use her without reason.”
Prisci felt a heavy pressure in her chest. “So you mean, it was me?<b>” </b>
Wesley was silent for a few seconds. “For now, yes. The form the other party got was the final version you
adjusted.”
He didn’t believe his wife was that kind of person, but the facts were right there.
The evidence was clear andid out for all to see.
Prisci copsed onto the sofa.
Her mind was in utter chaos.
She knew very well that she hadn’t leaked the form, but she couldn’t exin how the final version she had personally tested multiple times had ended up in the other party’s hands.
Where exactly had things gone wrong?
“Prisci, it’s okay, I’ll stay with you,” Wesley said softly. “Go change your clothes, let’s go to the mansion.“”
