Chapter 69: Chapter 69

"There are seven people to feed in my family, and they all depend on me. Now Mr. Oscar says he’s going to put production on hold. How are we supposed to get by?"

"You can’t just hear half the story and jump to conclusions. What Mr. Oscar meant was that production lines one, two, and three can keep going. Only four and five need a break. He’s not saying you can’t work, just that you need to chill at home for a bit "

"A break for how long? With seven people to support, I can’t afford to be idle for even a day!"

"Like it or not, this is how it’s going to go down. There’s no room for negotiation! Has Mr. Oscar ever done you wrong this past year? Can’t you see it? Now that Ms. Rose is in the picture, every little thing is getting scrutinized Production lines four and five have to stop, and the stock in the warehouse must be cleared out in the next few days. Otherwise, not just you and me, but even Mr. Oscar is going to be in hot water!"

Rosemary got it. So, the products made at night on lines four and five were all faulty, huh?

The speakers must be Mr. Charlie from production and the leader of line four. They mentioned that the stock in the warehouse must be cleared out in the next few days. So, this stuff must be dodgy.

Quietly, Rosemary left the hallway and headed to the warehouse on the first floor.

At night, the warehouse was unguarded. Rosemary couldn’t open the warehouse door with her own fingerprint. Oddly, her fingerprint was supposed to be in the company system, allowing her access

anywhere.

She entered the password, but the warehouse door still didn’t budge. In theory, this password should grant.her free reign throughout the company.

Unless someone deliberately deleted her data to keep her from entering that door,

A spark of interest flashed in Rosemary’s eyes. She really wanted to know if Oscar’s behind–the–scenes maneuvers matched her suspicions.

The warehouse door had a three–layer password lock, which Rosemary easily cracked. She also altered the upcoming surveillance recording.

Inside the warehouse, various garments were neatly organized. There were finished products processed for other companies as well as old and new products from their own company.

After a round in the warehouse, Rosemary found two batches of new goods that looked identical but had vastly different workmanship and materials. Then she logged into the warehouse administrator’s

computer and found that the low–quality batch hadn’t been entered into the company’s database. She copied all the data from the computer, sent it to her own email, and then erased all traces.

Just then, there were footsteps outside the warehouse.

Rosemary leaped onto the overhead beam and looked down. The people who came in were Mr. Charlie and some employees.

All of them were faces she hadn’t seen before.

It suddenly dawned on Rosemary that the day and night shift workers were not the same!

These guys must be Oscar’s cronies.

Each of them was holding a wooden stick.

The warehouse lights. were turned on, and the employees searched everywhere but didn’t find anyone.

"Mr. Charlie, don’t you think you’re a bit too jumpy because of the new Ms. Rose?"

Mr. Charlie scanned the place, feeling a strange atmosphere. "Check the surveillance."

Rosemary had modified the surveillance previously. Although it was still recording, there was no trace of her having been there.

An employee checked the surveillance and immediately reported, "Mr. Charlie, no one has entered the warehouse."

"That’s weird. Someone definitely saw Ms. Rose entering the company just now. Could they have been mistaken?" Mr. Charlie was puzzled.

"There’s no sign of anyone being in the warehouse!"

Just now, one of the guys went downstairs to grab takeout, and he saw someone who looked a helluva lot like Rosemary heading into the private elevator. From the back, it’s got to be her.

Mr. Charlie was kind of freaked out, so he decided to check the surveillance cameras at the front entrance.

If Rosemary really did swing by, the cameras would have definitely caught her on tape!

While one of the dudes was busy pulling up the CCTV footage, Rosemary whipped out her phone, deleted all the surveillance footage of her entering the building, and then started recording their every move.

"Mr. Charlie, if Rosemary really did drop by and she found out about the stuff we’re producing, what do we do then?" One guy asked, worried that Rosemary might start digging into their business.

"The way she’s snooping around, it won’t be long before all our dirty laundry is aired in public!"

"Are we going to lose our jobs over this?"

"If Rosemary finds out about our screw–ups, it’s not just our jobs that would be on the line; we might even get sued!"

Mr. Charlie, hearing their chatter, let out a snide chuckle: "If someone happened to get into a car accident or some other mishap on their way to or from work, we can’t be blamed it’s just their crappy luck."

The guys were freaked out by his insinuation. Was Mr. Charlie implying that if Rosemary saw something she shouldn’t have, he might resort to drastic measures? But Rosemary was sent from HQ; what if

there’s more to her than they know?

A little while later, the guy who went to check the surveillance came back and said, "Mr. Charlie, Rosemary didn’t drop by tonight. That dude probably just saw it wrong."

"Looks like we freaked out for

nothing. What are we waiting for, then? Let’s get back to work!"

"I nearly had a heart attack, thinking Rosemary had actually shown up. I even worried she might have come to the warehouse!"

A group of five or six guys turned off the lights and got ready to leave.

Just then, Rosemary’s phone buzzed a few times. It was call from Romeo.

Her phone’s recording was abruptly interrupted.

Mr. Charlie, as if he heard something, asked sharply, "Whose phone was just vibrating?"

"No."

Everyone fumbled for their phones. All quiet.

Rosemary quickly hung up on Romeo, put her phone on silent, and texted him, "Busy now, let’s catch up later."

Romeo replied, "Okay." He initially thought she might have run into some trouble, but it seems he was overthinking.

Mr. Charlie listened carefully, but there were no more sounds. Did he imagine it?

"Mr. Charlie, you’re being too paranoid! That girl’s got you all jumpy! Haha."

"This warehouse isn’t that big. If someone was hiding in here, we would’ve found them by now."

They left laughing, dragging Mr. Charlie along.

The warehouse door was shut.

A glimmer of gloom flashed in Rosemary’s eyes. It seemed their secrets were even deeper than she thought..

The warehouse was pitch black.

But Rosemary didn’t immediately leave. She chose to stay on the crossbeam, waiting.

The lights outside were bright, casting a few shadows at the entrance of the warehouse. Beams of light spilled through the cracks of the door, illuminating patches on the ground.
