Filed To Story: The Plan of Saving Nora Novel Free
Y was the Hunt Corporation’s consultant. In order to make herself look good again, Nora must have approached Mr. Hunt and asked him to talk to Y, right?
As Ruth figured this out, she suddenly felt like she had accidentally messed with the wrong person!
She clenched her fists tightly. In the midst of her fury, Morris’ low and serious voice rang out. “Ruth, please explain what on earth is going on. Do you or do you not know Y?” Ruth couldn’t help but stammer. She swallowed and suddenly said, “I, I… How are all of you so sure that this person is Y?”
Damon’s jaw tensed up and he slowly said, “By his abilities. Do you think that any old hacker can hack into our IT department?”
Ruth: “!!”
She clenched her jaw. Suddenly, she lowered her head, her demeanor so aggrieved that even her eyes turned red. She said, “I’m sorry, everyone. I… I might have been deceived!”
She took out her cell phone, opened the chat window with Y, and said, “I chat with him a lot. When he said he was Y, I believed him. I didn’t expect that I’ve actually been deceived!”
With her in tears, it would be hard for the others to continue blaming her.
However, the corners of Brenda’s lips spasmed and she clicked her tongue loudly. She said, “The moment you joined the department, you claimed that you knew this person and that person. So, you’ve found out that the Y you knew is a fake? In that case, might the Black Cat that you claim to know also be a fake? Which other big boss do you also know?”
Ruth’s face flushed at once. Seemingly unable to bear the pressure, she ran off in tears covering her face. After she left, everyone in the special department started to whisper to one another. “What’s going on?” “Maybe she really was deceived?” Johnson felt as if he had been slapped in the face. He stared at the people in front of him and suddenly said, “Alright, stop speculating What’s there to say? Go and do your jobs!”
As soon as he said that, Morris said coldly, “Captain Johnson is right, go do your jobs right now! You can’t get any work done just by flapping your lips! Do you think you’re special just because you know certain people? Also, let Ruth serve as a warning example for all of you. Despite being a member of the special department, she was deceived by a conman! What an embarrassment!”
His words were simply too mean!
Nora almost laughed out loud.
Johnson flushed even redder. He looked straight at Morris. “You—”.
But before he could finish, Morris interrupted him and said, “Johnson, the department should be recruiting people who at least have a functioning brain! Also, their character takes priority!”
Morris left straightaway after saying that.
Johnson felt as if his cheeks were stinging and burning hot from being slapped in the face. He looked at the people around him again, waved, and said, “Alright, begone! What are all of you looking at?”
Nora left the IT department with a smile on her lips.
As soon as she entered her office, her cell phone rang. She picked it up and took a lookit was Justin. She raised her brows a little and pressed the answer button.
“Nora.”
The man sounded very aggrieved. “Remember to give me the opportunity to explain the next time something happens!”
Nora looked straight ahead of her and leaned back on her chair. “… Alright.”
Her perfunctory tone, however, made Justin very dissatisfied. He heaved a quiet sigh and said, “We are lovers. If even lovers have to be so suspicious of each other, wouldn’t life be too tiring?”
Nora kept quiet for a moment.
She had never been in love, nor had she ever known how to interact with people. She had merely felt uncomfortable when Ruth said that she knew Y and when the others said that Y might like Ruth. Thus, she had ignored Justin’s messages.
Thinking about it again, she had indeed gone overboard.
She looked at the phone seriously and said, “Okay, I will take note of it next time.”
“How are you going to make it up to me this time?” The man suddenly asked in a low voice.
Nora: “?”
The corners of her lips gradually hooked upward. In a lazy tone, she asked, “Do I have to make it up to you?” “Yes, you have to.” The man was just like a little puppy. He said, “Besides, I haven’t seen you for two days, I miss you. Shall we have dinner together?” Nora was about to tell him to bring the two children along when the man spoke in a low voice again. He said, “Just you and me. I will book a private room at a place where no one will disturb us, okay?”
The man’s voice was very low and he sounded as if he was cajoling her, making Nora feel as if feathers were tickling the depths of her heart. She coughed and replied, “Alright.”
Nora’s smile stayed on her face even after she hung up.
At the Hunt Corporation.
Lawrence’s lip corners spasmed as he listened to his boss’ shameless words. After Justin hung up with a smile on his lips, Lawrence handed him the document in his hand.
Justin took a couple of glances at it and signed it.
When Lawrence was about to step out, Justin suddenly said, “Lawrence.”
Lawrence stopped and looked at him. “Yes, Mr. Hunt?”
Justin asked unhurriedly, “How long do you think it will take for people to seize my power and take over my position?”
Lawrence: “???”
The entire company is under your control, Boss! I’m afraid your uncle and his family will have to wait a hundred years after this batch of employees changes!
What the heck was his boss thinking?
While thinking about it, Justin said, “With that, I will become harmless and easy to control, right? And Uncle Ian won’t worry anymore.”
Lawrence: “????”
Justin looked up at him in silence.
“… Boss, I have something to do!”
Lawrence fled the office before Justin could say anything else. He was really afraid that his boss would ask him to make up plans for the company’s bankruptcy!
At the special department. Nora was notified of an impromptu meeting. As soon as she entered the conference room, Johnson said, “Alright, as evident from the investigation, the Y that Ruth knew is indeed a fake. She was deceived by the other party’s skillful tricks. Fortunately, no losses were suffered. The good news, though, is that it is true that Ruth knows Black Cat!”
Nora, aka Black Cat: “??”
Before Nora could raise objections, Brenda scoffed and said, “Captain Johnson, you must back up your claims with reasonable evidence! She also said that this Y was real when she claimed to know him! How can we be sure that the Black Cat she knows is real?” Johnson sneered. “Of course I have my own way of verifying this! Moreover, not only is the Black Cat she knows real, but Ruth has also gotten in contact with Black Cat for us! Those men that we arrested still haven’t revealed any useful information. After Black Cat heard about it, he has decided to design some interrogation methods for us! Ruth and Black Cat will discuss and jointly decide on the specific methods!”
After he spoke, he clapped his hands by himself and said, “Therefore, let’s let the little misunderstanding today pass. There’s no need to keep harping on it. Ruth is young and has not been exposed to fraud syndicates. Moreover, those conmen’s tricks are too sophisticated. It is normal that she would fall for it!”
The rest of the staff immediately echoed him. “Yeah, it’s nothing much that she fell for it!”
Even Damon said, “Yeah, it’s nothing. Besides, you’ve never seen Y either. But you’ve met Black Cat in person before, right?”
With her eyes red, Ruth bowed and said, “I’m sorry, I’ve really let all of you down. I also feel very embarrassed about it. I met Y through the Internet, but I’m good friends with Black Cat in private. I definitely won’t be deceived on that. Besides, Black Cat has already agreed to discuss with me the interrogation methods. I will definitely give everyone a proposal within the next two days!”
She wiped her tears and heaved a silent sigh. She said, “The incident with Y was a huge misunderstanding on my part. Ms. Smith, you were the one who asked Mr. Hunt to get Y to come forward, right? Thank you so much. If it weren’t for you, I’d still be thinking that the YI knew was real and be kept in the dark!”
Nora: “…”
Ruth’s level of hypocrisy and bitchiness was really beyond her!
The corners of Nora’s lips spasmed.
Ruth stared at Nora. Her expression was still aggrieved and apologetic, but a touch of contempt and disgust welled up in her.
The incident with Y was indeed negligence on her part.
She’d originally thought that big figures like Q and Y wouldn’t be involved in competitiveness between women, so she hadn’t linked the incident to Nora.
But unexpectedly, in order to beat her in their reputation, Nora had simultaneously gotten both hackers to make an appearance!
One could say that she had spent a lot of money just to make things difficult for her!
However, Q and Y were people whom the Smith Corporation and the Hunt Corporation could easily contact. With the two companies’ financial and material resources, it was very understandable that Nora would win this round.
But no matter how powerful the Smith Corporation and the Hunt Corporation were, there was no way they would know Black Cat!
Ugh… Ruth is dispicable
