Gluey Love Between Us

Chapter 267

Lucian frowned and said, "Director Bleu, come and see this quickly. The Jotham Alwynn Group has a press conference today. The new products they will be releasing are exactly the same as ours."

Lucian quickly browsed through the clothing designs on his laptop to make sure that he was not mistaken.

Eden's gaze turned cold when she heard that. It was what she had expected but fortunately, she had made preparations last night.

"I've always kept the USB and the drawing designs very well. Someone had tampered with my laptop!" Eden’s face was cold and unflustered as she spoke.

"What's wrong?" Victor and Anson came over. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

Lucian said sternly, "Victor, I have bad news. The Jotham Alwynn Group has stolen your new autumn products. They will hold a press conference at nine-thirty to release the products."

"How did this happen?" Victor looked at Eden.

Eden looked at him apologetically. It was due to her carelessness.

She bit her lip slightly and glanced at the office across the room.

Why was it the Jotham Alwynn Group? She thought it would be the Gienger family.

Under Victor's gaze, she said calmly, "Mr. Alwynn, do you believe me?"

Victor looked at her and smiled gently. "Eden, of course I believe you!"

Eden heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that. His trust was enough to outweigh millions of her explanation.

"Thank you. I've kept the USB and the designs very well. There is no way that they could be leaked. However..."

Eden wanted to speak but stopped. After thinking for a moment, she asked, "Are there any surveillance cameras in my office?"

"Eden, do you mean..." Victor smiled coldly and his black eyes were cold and stern.

Eden would never betray him. Even though they had not seen each other for more than ten years and they didn't spend much time together, he understood her character very well. She was still as kind as she was when she was a child.

Eden said, "If there are surveillance cameras, we can stop the press conference immediately. I can't let others make money from the clothing designs that I worked so hard on."

Anson said solemnly, "Director Bleu, we don't want others to make such a profit too. However, there are no surveillance cameras in your office! Marianne is also a very vigilant designer. She usually would not bring her drawing designs to the office."

"No, I know where the surveillance camera is." Victor smiled mysteriously. He had a wicked and cold expression on his face.

Anson had a look on his face that seemed to imply that Victor was a madman.

Victor must have gone crazy after he was tortured by Rebecca. Why did he secretly install a camera everywhere?

"Really?" Eden asked excitedly.

"Yup!" Victor responded and gave her a charming smile.

Eden was speechless.

How did he still have the mood to respond in such a way!

Besides, what did the expression in his eyes mean? Was he telling her that she owed him another favor?

Both Anson and Lucian shook their heads when they saw Victor's expression.

Eden sighed. It would be best if they could save the situation. She didn't want to give away her designs to others for nothing, even though she was prepared for it.

Lucian suddenly said doubtfully, "The message was delivered to my laptop through a special method. This means that someone else knows about this and told us in advance."

It was done by a hacker who was a computer expert. Lucian felt ashamed of himself.

Anson said, "No matter who the person is, we are really very grateful that he inform us about it."

After all, not many people could pass the designs in one shot!

He did not expect Eden to be this talented.

"Lucian, follow me to get the surveillance footage." Victor was about to leave after he finished speaking.

Eden quickly stopped Victor when she heard that. "Mr. Alwynn, wait a minute. Let me ask Riley to come out first."

Riley and her were the only ones in the office yesterday. No one else could have done that except for Riley.

Victor nodded and said, "Okay!"

Eden quickly turned around and walked towards the office.

Riley looked as though she was cleaning the office but she was actually eavesdropping. However, she could not hear anything because their voices were too soft.

Anson frowned. It couldn't have been Riley, could it?

"Good morning, Director Bleu!" Unlike her usual self, Riley actually greeted Eden first when she saw her. She even came earlier than usual.

Eden nodded and looked at her coldly. She said, "Come with me. Mr. Alwynn needs to use the office."

Riley was very nervous when she heard that but she asked calmly, "Why does Mr. Alwynn want to use the office?"

Eden answered calmly, "You'll have to ask Mr. Alwynn about that. I don't know. Let's go!"

Eden turned around and Riley followed behind her uneasily.

Eden winked at Victor when she came out. They were running out of time.

Victor glanced at Lucian and said, "Lucian, let's go. Anson, depart right now. I'll call you later."

Anson nodded his head with comprehension. He glanced at Riley before he left in a hurry.

Lucian picked up the car key and his laptop from the table and followed Victor to the office across the

room.

Eden and Riley were waiting outside.

Riley looked at the composed Eden worriedly.

She asked cautiously, "Director Bleu, what's going on? Mr. Alwynn seems very angry." Could it be that they had discovered what she had done yesterday?

No way. That’s impossible. She was sure that there were no surveillance cameras in the office.

Marianne didn't like to be monitored and Victor wouldn't cross her line.

Time passed by slowly. Lucian stood at the door of the office suddenly and called out to Eden, "Director Bleu, Riley, please come in!"

Eden glanced at Riley who was standing beside her, and said lightly, "Let's go in!"

Riley nodded and clasped her hands together. It was obvious that she was uneasy.

When Victor saw Riley entering the office, his expression darkened and the corners of his mouth curved into a mocking smile.

"Riley, come here and explain why you tampered with Director Bleu's laptop." His tone was casual but it made Riley nervous and a pervasive fear swept through her body.

"I didn't!" Riley did not expect that there would be a surveillance camera in the office.

Lucian turned the laptop to her and said coldly, "Take a good look. Are you the person in the video?"

Riley swallowed and looked at the surveillance footage. In the footage, she had plugged the USB into Eden's laptop after Eden left the office.

Riley's forehead was sweating profusely when she saw the scene. Her face was pale and her lips were trembling slightly.

"Mr. Alwynn, I..."

Victor asked word by word in a terrifyingly cold tone, "Did you sell the designs for the new autumn product to the Jotham Alwynn Group?"
