Chapter 82: Document Was Stolen
Immediately after Janessa got home from the trip, she began to make soup for Alana.
The next day, she brought the soup with her when she visited Alana at the hospital before work.
After a good night's rest, Alana felt as good as new.
Her eyes lit up when she saw Janessa carrying a lunchbox with her.
"What did you bring for me, Janessa?"
From the moment Janessa walked into the room, the Junchbox in her hands held Alana's attention.
"I made you some black-bone chicken soup.It's good for you."
Janessa placed the lunchbox in front of her.
The faint aroma of the soup was enough to make Alana's mouth water.
Alana would never be able to resist such delicious food.
"You're an angel, Janessa! Can I have some soup, please? I'm starving! Have mercy on me!"
Alana looked at Janessa with pleading eyes as she clasped her hands together tightly.
"Here you go.There's no need to be dramatic."
Janessa placed the lunchbox on the table, carefully prepared a bowl for Alana, and then handed it to her.
"I made a lot of soup, so make sure you finish it all.I'll bring some more for you tonight."
"This is amazing! Your cooking skills are improving,"
Alana commented as she took another sip of her soup.
Alana loved all the food that Janessa prepared for her.
When Janessa started cooking for the first time, the food she made was terrible.
Alana witnessed her skills improve over time.
This soup was the most delicious thing Janessa's made so far.
Janessa made it a goal to learn how to cook three years ago.
At the time, she was newly married to Rayan, and their relationship was rocky.
The two of them were never able to get along with one another when they lived under the same roof.
Her mother-in-law had given her some advice at the time to help improve her marriage with Rayan.
She told Janessa that the way to a man’s heart was through his stomach.
From the beginning, their marriage had been a business deal.
The two only took what they needed from the other, and there was no reason for them to be affectionate with one another.
However, they were still a married couple.
Occasionally, the two of them would have a meal together.
Rayan wasn't fond of having outsiders inside his home, so Janessa ended up having to cook most of the time.
At first, he barely took notice of the dishes she prepared for him.
Later on, when her cooking began to improve, he would sit down and reluctantly eat the food.
One day, Rayan looked like he hated the food, but even so, he still had another bowl of rice.
Janessa didn't want to remember her memories of cooking for Rayan any longer.
"Shut your mouth and eat.I'm going to leave for work.Don't hesitate to call me if you need anything."
Janessa quickly collected her belongings and left the hospital.
After a few minutes, she arrived at the office.
The moment she turned her computer on, she could sense that something was off.
Someone had used her computer.
In her field, the most frightening thing that could happen to you was having your documents stolen.
Because of this, Janessa deliberately set a login password to protect her computer.
The person who tinkered with her computer was obviously skilled at it.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to log into her account.
When she got assigned to the project with the Gu Group, Janessa installed anti-intrusion software to protect her computer.
Whenever someone logged into her computer, her phone would notify her of the activity.
The day before, she was so exhausted that the only thing she did before falling asleep was preparing the soup for Alana.
She checked her messages and found the notification of when someone had logged into her computer.
It happened at ten o'clock last night.
Why would anyone go to the office at ten o'clock to steal the documents from her computer? Janessa had a terrible feeling about everything.
The software she installed could only tell if someone had logged in.
It wasn't capable of telling her which documents were copied from her computer.
Janessa also made sure to encrypt her files, but it might be easy to decode them.
If the planning documents were leaked, it would be a serious issue for the company.
Janessa stood up to discuss the matter with Linda.
Before she could find Linda, Linda had appeared before her.
"Please come into my office, Janessa."
Linda had a stern look on her face.
Janessa could tell that something terrible was about to happen to her.
When they arrived at Linda's office, Linda immediately closed the door and the blinds.
She asked in a firm tone, "What's the matter with you? How could you make such a mistake? Do you have any idea what would happen to the company and our partners when the plan was leaked to the public?"
Janessa was stunned by Linda's words.
Not only was the plan stolen, but even posted online.
Janessa immediately searched it up on her phone to check it out.
The plan that she and Rayan had carefully created had been posted online for the public, free of charge.
Not only would this cause trouble for the two companies, but it could also place Janessa in legal trouble.
This could be considered as theft of trade secrets.
Although the document wasn't sold to another party, it would be a substantial loss to the company.
Who would do such a thing to her?
"I didn't leak the files.This plan is one of the Lu Group's most important projects for the year.Why would I do anything to destroy it? I've been working tirelessly to get this plan together.What would I gain out of doing this?"
There was no reason for Janessa to do such a thing.
The person responsible not only leaked the plans but even posted them under a name similar to Janessa's.
The files were posted under a user named "Jane".
That way, the people in the company would naturally think that Janessa was responsible for leaking the files.
The person who hacked into her computer was vicious! How could they frame her like this? Janessa couldn't understand why a person would think to do such a thing.
Why would they use that username? She couldn't decide if the person responsible was foolish or if the people in the company were too gullible to realize that she would never do such a thing.
Linda slammed her fist against the table.
"Isn't the username a variation of your name? Do you think you could get away with doing such a thing? The board of directors have found out about this already.You should think about how you plan on explaining this to them!"
Linda couldn't stand Janessa.
If it weren't for Janessa, Linda would've gotten a promotion and pay raise by now. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Linda lost the opportunity to be promoted because she was accused of mismanagement because of what Sally had done.
At the end of the day, it didn't matter to Linda whether Janessa did it or not.
There was no way she could stay in the Planning Department.
"It wasn't me.I'll find evidence to prove my innocence."
Janessa was aware that Linda wasn't interested in hearing anything she had to say.
It would be useless to plead her case to Linda.
After all, Rayan would make the final decision on the matter, not Linda.
Would Rayan believe her? ‘I doubt that he will, ‘ Janessa thought to herself.
She couldn't help but smile bitterly at the thought.
Two people could be behind it, but Janessa needed proof to plead her case.
"Evidence? The company discovered that the plan was uploaded from your computer.
Don't even try to worm your way out of this one!"
Linda was shocked when she received the news from the Technology Department.
However, this was something she could use to her advantage.
This time, she believed Janessa would finally be gone from the Planning Department.
Linda wanted her gone from the very beginning, which was why she continued to turn a blind eye to Sally's misbehaviors.
