“Even if I made a mistake, we all saw the email!” Owen clenched his fists tightly. “You were trying to steal company secrets!”

Sandra approached the computer. “Well, Mr. Pope, I’ll demonstrate again, and you better pay close attention!” With that, she began typing.

This time, everyone noticed how fast her fingers moved across the keys. She definitely wasn’t a beginner! At the very least, she knew something about computer technology.

Soon, the computer screen turned blue, and a video appeared. The content was simple. It explained the steps Sandra had taken earlier. It turned out that Sandra had discovered a loophole in the company’s firewall and fixed it directly. During the process, she had to conduct some tests.

The email they had seen earlier was one of the tests.

Owen stared at the video, his eyes wide. By the end, his gaze seemed bloodshot.

“Mr. Pope, when you accused me, I was actually testing the system.” Sandra chuckled. “I just didn’t expect you wouldn’t even understand such simple codes. As the director of the technical department, you’re truly…” She raised her voice. “…not competent enough.”

Owen froze in place. It seemed as though he had been dealt a significant blow. He clutched his chest, his face pale, and couldn’t say a word.

“Oh, by the way…” Sandra suddenly unplugged the USB drive from the computer.

She held up the USB drive she had pulled from the computer and waved it in front of Owen’s eyes. “Mr. Pope, I found a virus program in the USB drive you gave me and removed it for you.” She smiled faintly. “You don’t have to thank me.”

The employees immediately began whispering.

“Mr. Pope is a computer expert. How could he not know there was a virus program?”

“Maybe he planted it himself.”

“If he really overlooked such a thing, he’s not worthy of being the director of the technical department.”

Their words struck like slaps across Owen’s face. He had been an outstanding student since childhood and highly sought after by major companies after graduation. He couldn’t endure such a humiliation. As the mocking words filled the room, he felt unsteady.

Sandra, however, had no sympathy for someone who had tried to harm her. “Mrs. Debra Cooper, may I ask how to deal with an employee who lacks technical skills and slanders colleagues?”

Everyone gasped. They all knew Owen had been promoted by Debra herself. Even if he was in the wrong, they had assumed he would merely be fined. But Sandra had directly questioned Debra, striking at her authority.

Debra stayed silent.

Owen’s face turned pale. “Mrs. Debra Cooper, it’s my fault. I…”

“Mr. Pope, are you resigning?” Sandra interrupted impatiently, deliberately pushing him. “It’s okay. Take your time.”

Owen was left speechless. Debra’s expression darkened with fury.

Sandra held up her phone. “I have some resignation letter templates. Do you need them?”

Owen clenched his fists tightly.

Joey, standing outside, was completely dumbfounded. “Mr. Cooper, Mrs. Cooper is incredible!”

Wesley’s eyes showed admiration. Sandra was new at the company, but she had already managed to surprise him.

“Mr. Cooper, are you helping her?” Joey asked, knowing that Wesley used to be a hacker. He wondered if Wesley had secretly assisted Sandra.

Wesley’s face instantly darkened. “No.”

Joey couldn’t believe it. “Mrs. Debra Cooper.”

Owen took a few deep breaths to regain his composure. However, his knees weakened, and he could barely stand. “I did make a mistake. It was my fault. And I suspected my subordinate without investigation. It was my negligence. I am not capable of handling the role of director. Please allow me to resign.”

With that, he couldn’t hold on any longer and fainted.

Debra exclaimed, “Take him to the hospital.”

As long as they sent Owen to the hospital, everyone would forget about the matter, and he wouldn’t have to resign. It seemed like the perfect solution.

“Wait!” Sandra shouted, stopping the person calling for the ambulance.

Then, she took out a few silver needles and knelt in front of Owen.

“He is suffering from an attack of anger. There’s no need to go to the hospital,” Sandra said.

While everyone was still speculating about what she was going to do, she directly inserted a needle into Owen’s acupoint.

Debra frowned. “Owen did wrongly accuse you just now, but his life is at stake now. Don’t make a fuss.”

Sandra sneered.

“Mrs. Debra Cooper, don’t you remember that I can bring good luck? There’s no need for an ambulance!” Sandra said, her voice calm and assured.

Debra was speechless. She hadn’t believed Sandra had this ability before, but with both Wesley and Victor having regained consciousness, she had no choice but to believe! But…

This situation was different. Owen didn’t need to regain consciousness!

“Sandra, I…” Before Debra could finish speaking, Owen coughed and slowly opened his eyes.

She was furious. Why did Owen wake up now?

As Owen opened his eyes, he realized the ceiling looked very familiar—it resembled that of the technical department. He was surrounded by a group of people, all watching him. He was momentarily stunned. Why were so many people visiting him?

Then, he heard a voice he never expected to hear again.

“Mr. Pope, get up. The floor is cold. You might get diarrhea later.”

Owen froze, shocked. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

Wasn’t he at the hospital?

Suddenly standing up, he realized he had never left the technical department. Despair filled his heart.

Sandra couldn’t resist teasing him. “Mr. Pope, did you faint deliberately because you couldn’t bear to give up your position as director?” She placed emphasis on the word “deliberately.”

Owen’s face darkened, a mixture of frustration and humiliation crossing his features.

Sandra turned to Debra. “Mrs. Debra Cooper, Mr. Pope has expressed his desire to resign. What is your decision on this?”
