Chapter 5 — The Scariest Betrayer Is The One You Trusted

That statement was like a slap straight to Lam Hieu Hieu's face. Tears were still on her cheeks, but her face was stiff. Suddenly, she pointed straight at me.

“It was you who set a trap to harm me!”

"You knew someone had seen the documents before but deliberately didn't say anything. You intentionally left fake documents, just to lure me into the trap!"

I calmly asked back:

“If you don't steal, then who can trap you?”

She immediately choked. Seeing that the situation was not good, Trieu Bang quickly stood up.

“Comrade police, I had absolutely no idea that the document was fake.”

“I was fooled by her too.”

Lam Hieu Hieu immediately turned to him.

"Trieu Bang! What do you mean?"

Trieu Bang quickly brushed off the relationship.

“Miss Lam, you were the one who contacted me, said your director leaked the secret, and asked me to come testify.”

“I'm just coordinating the investigation.”

Lam Hieu Hieu widened her eyes.

"Apparently you said just now that the USB was given to you by her!"

Trieu Bang shrugged.

“I just narrated what you provided.”

When it's time to take responsibility... He runs faster than anyone. I coldly looked at him.

“Trieu Bang, you don't need to rush to brush it off like that.”

“Just now you said it was me who gave you the USB.”

“So where is that USB?”

Trieu Bang's face immediately stiffened.

“I... I didn't bring it.”

I smiled.

"No problem."

“I brought it for you.”

I opened my bag and took out a transparent evidence bag. Inside is a silver USB.

“Last night, at exactly 6:30 p.m., at the coffee shop downstairs, someone actually sat down opposite me.”

“But it wasn't my appointment.”

“I received an anonymous message, saying that someone intended to use the Tinh Ha Shopping Center project to slander me, and told me to come and see.”

"After I arrived, Trieu Bang immediately pushed this USB towards me and told me to stop pretending."

“But I never touched it.”

“The cafe has surveillance cameras.”

“Furthermore... I also recorded the entire conversation.”

Trieu Bang's face immediately turned pale. I took out my phone and opened the recording. Trieu Bang's voice quickly rang throughout the meeting room.

"Director Truong, don't pretend to be so arrogant anymore. Lam Hieu Hieu told me everything. She will find a way to get the bid price. As for you, you just need to take the blame and leave the company. If she takes your position, our cooperation will be much more convenient in the future."

Immediately followed by my voice.

“You just said... Lam Hieu Hieu?”

Trieu Bang laughed.

“That's right. That girl is very ambitious.”

"He said you always put pressure on his neck and refused to let him transfer officially."

“He also said that if he could get her out of the company, the project would fall into his hands.”

The recording played here... The entire meeting room fell completely silent. Lam Hieu Hieu's spine seemed to have been pulled out, his whole body staggered. Chu Thien's face was as white as paper. Trieu Bang frantically rushed forward and tried to steal my phone, but was immediately stopped by the police.

“What are you doing?”

“Stop!”

I put my phone away.

“Comrade police, I can submit the original recording.”

“Coffee shop cameras can also extract.”

“In addition, I still keep the anonymous message sent to me.”

The police officer nodded, his expression becoming more serious. General Director's face Tran was now pale. He wasn't just angry because I was harmed. But also because this drama almost dragged the whole company down a cliff. At that moment, Lam Hieu Hieu suddenly cried and shook her head.

“It's not like that…”

“It's not…”

“It was Truong Nghien who forced me!”

As if she had grabbed the last straw to save her life, she rushed in front of General Director Tran.

“General Manager Tran, please listen to me.”

“I never wanted to harm the company.”

“I just want to expose Truong Nghien.”

“Normally she always oppresses me.”

“Don't let me transfer officially.”

“Stealing all my credit.”

“And forced me to work overtime until midnight!”

“I'm really cornered by her!”

I looked at her. There was still an inevitable pain in my heart. I used to think... At least now she will be afraid. Or you will regret it. Unexpectedly... Even now, what she was thinking about was dragging me to death with her. General Director Tran turned to look at me.

"Truong Nghien, she said you oppressed the interns. Is that true?"

Lam Hieu Hieu immediately cried even more bitterly.

“Everyone in the company knows!”

"She forced me to do all the odd jobs, forced me to fix plans until dawn, and even criticized me for not being smart enough and not suitable for planning!"

“That is workplace bullying!”

As soon as her words ended... In the corner of the meeting room, a weak voice rang out.

“But... those plans... weren't Director Truong all editing them for you?”

Lam Hieu Hieu immediately turned his head around. The person who just spoke... was Hua Duyet, another intern. The girl was so nervous that her hands were shaking. But still tried to muster up the courage to stand up.

“I... I've seen it many times.”

“Every time Ms. Hieu Hieu made a mistake, Director Truong stayed behind to help correct it.”

“The plan used for her official transfer evaluation... Director Truong edited it for three days.”

“Sister Hieu Hieu also told me…”

"Once it's officially signed, she won't have to look at Director Truong's face anymore."

Lam Hieu Hieu suddenly shouted:

“Shut up!”

Hua Duyet was so scared that he cowered. I immediately stepped forward, covering the girl behind me.

“Lin Xiaoxiao.”

“What are you yelling at her for?”

“Or... are you afraid she'll tell the truth?”

Lam Hieu Hieu stared at me.
