N’s eyes were cold. “I didn’t do it and won’t admit <b>to </b>it.”
Spencer sighed. “Ms. Jayston, it’s not about whether you admit it or not right now.”
The evidence was clear. If Prospectus Technology decided to sue, it would almost certainly go through.
N remained silent for a few seconds before quietly saying, “Give me three days.”
Spencer replied, “I need to consult the board on this. The development of this asthma medication has cost thepany hundreds of millions, and the board is very concerned. I can’t make this decision on my own.”
N nodded. “Alright, I understand. Thank you, Mr. Hogg.”
After Spencer and the others left, Melody quickly moved to N’s side. “N, I believe you didn’t do this. Think carefully–was there anyone who might have essed yourputerst week?”
N lowered her gaze. The email had been scheduled for 1:30 p.m., meaning either someone controlled herputer remotely or used it during her lunch break to set up the email.
Since she was a light sleeper, it was unlikely that someone could have used herputer while she was napping.
If someone wanted to control herputer, they would need to have used it before or know her password. During her experiments, Prospectus Technology employees sometimes used herputer to check on progress or data.
After considering her options, N identified a few suspects who had the opportunity to tamper with herputer.
A few minutester, Spencer returned to the conference room and informed her, “Ms. Jayston, Mr. Sumner wants you toe to his office.”
“Alright, got it,” N replied.
When N entered Damon’s office, he had just finished reviewing a document. Without looking up, he said, Have a <b>seat </b>on the sofa.”
After signing the contract, Damon set down his pen and approached N.
“I heard <b>the </b>data leak email was sent from yourputer?” he asked.
Sensing the pressure from Damon, N met his gaze directly and nodded. “Yes.”
“What’s your take on this? Do you have any suspects?” Damon asked.
N hesitated, her lips pressed together. “You believe it wasn’t me?”
“I trust the evidence, but I don’t think you’d be foolish enough to use yourpanyputer to send <b>data </b><b>to </b>someone else,” Damon said.
As N met his dark eyes, her previously troubled mind began <b>to </b>calm, and her anxiety <b>eased </b><b>significantly</b>.

“Yes, I have a few suspects,” she replied.
After N provided the names of those she suspected might have had ess to herputer, Damon immediately asked Spencer to have the IT department investigate those employees‘puters.
The IT department soon reported back, indicating that none of the employees‘puters showed any anomalies or had software capable of controlling others‘puters.
N’s heart sank. Had she made a mistake with her guesses?
Noticing her pale expression, Damon spoke softly. “Don’t jump to conclusions. Think carefully–have you noticed anything unusual recently?”
N shook her head. “No… and the scheduled email was sent during lunch. Since I’m a light sleeper, if someone had essed myputer, I would have-”
Before she could finish, her voice trailed off as she suddenly recalled something odd.
N usually took a 30–minute nap, but for the past two weeks, she had been waking up only after the rm rang several times.
Initially, she had attributed this to fatigue, but upon reflection, she realized her sleep had be unusually deep recently.
