The onlookers around them locked their eyes on Susan and Vivian’s pate faces. There was something in their eyes that unsettled the two
Women
“How could this be? Did Vivian purposely send her design using Caroline’s email just to accuse her of plagiarism?” Someone pondered aloud. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Another person clicked her tongue and said. “This is creepy. It gives me goosebumps.”
Someone else asked. “Was it truly necessary? Didn’t Vivian claim that Caroline was totally inexperienced back then? Why Is she using foul play?”
Vivian heard what her subordinates said. Their words were like blades cutting at her back. She clenched her lists, her fingernails digging
into her palms.
“I really don’t know what happened. I only came to your office to place some documents,” she said, unwilling to give in to the pressure.
“If you don’t believe me, you can check the surveillance footage again. I’m sure of it.”
A small smile appeared on Caroline’s face, and she stared at Susan. “If it isn’t Vivian, it should be
Frightened, Susan glanced at Vivian for help. However, the latter acted as if she didn’t notice it and said, “I don’t know about it then.”
“Viv, you actually-”
Vivian barked a scornful laugh and glowered at Susan as a warning. “Susan, tell me, did you do it?”
Susan had worked for Vivian all these years. Naturally, she understood what that glare meant. If she spoke the truth, Vivian would never let her go.

“I’ll give you one last chance. You’d better think it through before answering me.” Caroline told her.
“Were you truly the one who did this?”
Susan gritted her teeth and looked in Vivian’s direction, but the latter averted her gaze.
“It was me.”
“Okay.” Caroline glanced around the room, meeting the eyes of everyone here who wanted the gossip.
“Did all of you hear that?”
Taken by surprise, the crowd nodded in unison at her sudden question. Caroline then crossed her arms and said, “Susan, do you know what consequences you’ll face for framing your superior?”
‘I’ll be dismissed,” Susan murmured.
“Very well you’re aware of it.”
Caroline approached her and stopped right in front of her. “However, I’m not a kind person. Besides dismissing you, I’ll sue you for

Susan swayed and stumbled, almost collapsing to the ground, but Caroline was there to support her. Smiling, Caroline patted her shoulder and said. “You admitted that you intentionally set this up to frame me. The cops will arrive soon. Do reflect on your sins when
