Chapter 25 — Recruitment Spots Stolen

20The smile on Luc Khai Son's face stopped for a moment. But very quickly, he regained his composure.

"President Lam, you can't say that."

"It happened seven years ago. I don't know the specifics of the implementation process."

"If there are subordinates who violate the procedures, I am ready to coordinate the investigation."

Every sentence and every word is meticulous. He cleverly put himself in the position of a completely unaware person. At the same time, push all responsibility down to "subordinates". Luc Giai Di stood behind his father, as if he had finally found support. But her face didn't get any better. Because she also understands. In my father's words just now... There was no intention to protect her. Just cut off the relationship. I looked at Luc Khai Son.

"Just now you mentioned compensation."

"According to you, what happened seven years ago gives me the label of 'moral hazard'..."

"...is it something that can be compensated with money?"

Luc Khai Son sighed softly.

"Miss Khuong, people still have to know how to look forward."

"You're doing great now."

"Thinh Hoa can also officially correct your records."

"If you agree..."

"...we can also sign you a long-term consulting contract."

"Remuneration..."

"...you can give it as you please."

In the entire meeting room, no one spoke. This is not an apology. It's a price show. That's when I really understood... Why they could consider a talent recruitment spot as a commodity to trade. Because in their eyes... Many things can be converted into prices. Honor has a price. Opportunity has a price. Even silence... ...has a price.

"What if I don't bid?"

Luc Khai Son looked at me. The last look in his eyes was no longer as gentle as before.

"Then you'll realize..."

"...wanting to prove something that happened seven years ago is extremely difficult."

"The origin of the document is unclear."

"The signature needs to be verified."

"The system log may be missing."

"Each person has a different way of telling the story."

He paused for a moment.

"Miss Khuong."

"You are a smart person."

"Smart people should not waste their lives pursuing old debts."

Ha Minh Xuyen interrupted with a cold voice.

"Luc Khai Son."

"Are you threatening her?"

Luc Khai Son turned to look at him.

"General Manager Ha..."

"I'm afraid you're no longer qualified to ask me that question now."

"The board of directors has suspended you from your position."

"The more you say..."

"...just looks more like someone losing their temper."

Before Ha Minh Xuyen could answer, Lam Lam spoke up.

"I have seen the suspension resolution."

"Of the four members who voted yes..."

"...there are three people in the last three years who have had direct or indirect interests in projects of the Strategic Cooperation Committee."

"They don't make it public."

"Also failed to fulfill its duty to avoid conflicts of interest."

"So..."

"...this resolution is temporarily not in effect."

Luc Khai Son's face finally changed. The Chairman also raised his eyes.

"She does not have the right to unilaterally veto resolutions of the Board of Directors."

Lam Lam coldly replied:

"I don't veto."

"I'm just suspending enforcement."

"Before the conflict of interest verification is completed..."

"...no one is allowed to use this resolution to take away the right to investigate at the scene."

Those words just ended. The last light in Phuong's eyes Man also completely disappeared. On Nham Canh Hoa's forehead, sweat began to form. Luc Khai Son was silent for a few seconds. Suddenly he smiled.

"It seems today..."

"...everyone is determined to push everything to the end."

Having finished speaking, he turned to Luc Giai Di.

"Give your phone to the audit team."

Luc Giai Di was stunned. Luc Khai Son's voice was still calm.

"Coordinate investigation."

Luc Giai Di's lips trembled slightly. At that moment, I saw on her face... True fear. Don't be afraid of a company investigation. It's because I'm afraid... ...my biological father will abandon me. The auditor took the phone. The Information Security Department immediately created a copy of the data on the spot. Less than five minutes later, the person in charge raised his head.

"There is a group of messages that have been deleted."

"Can be restored."

Luc Khai Son's face darkened. Luc Giai Di clenched his fingers. Lam Lam's voice was cold.

"Restore."

The person in charge of Information Security immediately took action. Very quickly, a conversation appeared on the screen. The opponent's note name is... Time is three days ago. Luc Giai Di messaged:

"If Khuong An Ninh really comes for the interview, what should I do?"

The opponent replied:

"She won't know what happened seven years ago."

"Phuong Man will eliminate her."

A few minutes later, Luc Giai Di asked again:

"Her English is very good, what if it gets exposed?"

The opponent replied:

"The smarter you are, the easier it is to get angry."

"If she just loses her temper during the interview..."

"...everything later will be easy to handle."

The entire meeting room fell into a suffocating silence. All eyes turned to Luc Khai Son. The calm expression on his face finally cracked. And I just quietly stared at those messages. The heart grows cold little by little. From the moment I walked into the interview room... They didn't just know who I was. But also know how to force me to make mistakes. Phuong Man suddenly burst out laughing.

"It turns out..."

"...in your eyes, I'm not even human."

"Make me insult her."

"Then forced her to lose her temper."

"Until everything broke out..."

"...I'll be the cruel interviewer who takes care of it all."

She laughed and cried at the same time.

"That's really fair."

No one spoke up to comfort her. She is not innocent. But finally... I saw my position clearly. At that moment, a woman appeared outside the meeting room door. She wore a light-colored suit and held a sealed document bag in her hand. As soon as the Head of the Legal Department saw her, he immediately stood up straight.

"Director Tham?"

The woman nodded slightly.

"I've been away from Thinh Hoa for five years."

"Today..."

"...I only came as a witness."

I looked at her. Suddenly there was an answer in my heart. She is the person behind the anonymous emails. Tham Man walked in and put the file bag on the table.

"Seven years ago..."

"...I am the Human Resources Director of Thinh Hoa."

"Khuong An Ninh's final assessment file..."

"...I saw it myself."

"She has no moral hazard whatsoever."

"That conclusion..."

"...was forced by the President's Office to replace it later."

Luc Khai Son shouted loudly:

"Do you have proof?"

Tham Man looked straight at him and calmly replied: She opened the file bag. Inside is a notarized record to preserve evidence. Along with a drive Old-fashioned mobile hard drive. Tham Man slowly said:

"That year I refused to sign."

"The following month, I was transferred from my position."

"Before leaving..."

"...I backed up the entire package of original assessment documents and preserved evidence."

"I've been waiting for seven years."

"Just waiting for the day..."

"...someone dares to open the door of this room."
