Chapter 82
“They’re lying!” Cordelia smacked the table hard, her body shaking out of rage. “I didn’t do it! I was
framed! It must be Karine! Tell her toe out and confront me!”
“Keep your voice down!” The interrogator mmed his hand on the table, his voice so loud it
echoed throughout the room. “Where do you think this ce is? How dare you shout like that?”
“I''ll never admit to something I didn''t do!”
Cordelia’s hands and feet were cold. She bit her lips tightly and tried her best to calm herself down.
“I''m the one who wrote the marketing proposal. I kept the softcopy in theputer and the
hardcopy in the drawer, but I don''t know how our rivalpany could get their hands on it. I’m sure
there’s a mole in mypany, and that person is the one who stole the document. So, I just want
mypany to check all the security cameras. Anyone who can enter or leave my office is a
suspect!”
“Ms. Jenner, you''re a sales director. It''s normal for your staff to go in and out of your office. Besides,
you can''t just treat everyone as a suspect based on the security cameras alone!”
“Then you guys shouldn''t say I sold mypany''s proprietary secret just because they said so!”
“You…” The interrogator’s eyes grew wide in anger. As he was about to say something, a deep
voice wafted into his ear through the earpiece.
“Her mother is mentally ill, her brother is underage, and she has a husband as well, but we can''t get
hold of him. However, his husband has a criminal record, so I think we can try to use this as a
breakthrough.”
“Okay, I’ll try.”The interrogator smiled and turned off the earpiece.
He slowly rose up to his feet and said confidently, “Ms. Jenner, even if you don''t care about yourself,
what about your husband? He''s a convicted criminal. Do you want to have a stain on your life as he
does? Don’t you two want to start a new life?”

When Fredric came out of the police station, he hastily rushed toward Marcus’ house.
“What happened?” Marcus had been very upset, and his face was even darker right now. “Who did
it?”
“Calm down and listen to me.” Fredric took a deep breath and continued. “It seems to me that
Karine has colluded with Bowfest Foreign Trading''s rivalpany to set up Cordelia. Everyone said
that Cordelia was the one who exposed their proprietary secrets, and the evidence was all pointing
at her. I''ve checked the security camera, but a part of the footage is missing. I think it should be the
part where Karine took the proposal.”
“D*mn it!” Marcus shouted through gritted teeth and punched the wall.
Even though he was in Chaisnd now, he would contact Cordelia every day through texting and
phone calls. He wanted to make sure that she was alright.

However, about two days ago, he suddenly couldn’t reach Cordelia anymore. He figured that she
must have been taken away by the police at that time and that they had confiscated her phone.
He was very upset with himself right now. He should have returned earlier to face all of this with her.
“Cordelia was interrogated for a whole night.” Frederick continued. “The interrogator even brought
up Marcus’ criminal record. Z, I think you shouldn’t show yourself at the police station. Once you get
too much attention, the police might suspect your identity. Besides, I’m sure people are keeping an
eye on Matthew now.
“But you don’t have to worry about anything. I’ll settle the matter and bail out Cordelia. After that, we
can discuss how to win thewsuit. What do you think?”
Marcus’ face was dark as a trace of light crossed his eyes.
After a short silence, he jerked up and marched toward the door.
“Where are you going, Z?” asked Fredric.
“I want to go see her,” he replied.
‘I must stay at her side now!’
Fredric was momentarily stunned before he realized what he was talking about and went after him.
