Chapter 2211
The afternoon sun was shining brightly.
After having lunch together, Nicole, Sean, and Steve returned to the office.
"Sean, Everette has been unusually quiet recently. We should keep our guards up," said Nicole, gaze darkening.
She knew why Raine and James suddenly showed up at the Riddle family manor back then. However, she figured
that Raine would never just sit back and do nothing after not acquiring any information she wanted. That was why
she found a way to leak the information to her father.
Raine had been quite active recently, yet Everette remained still. That was why Nicole felt a little uneasy.
"Sure, I got it," Sean responded seriously.
"Steve, is everything going well with the recent projects?" Nicole asked.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Yeah, everything's going smoothly." Steve nodded.
"Okay." Nicole felt relieved knowing that at least everything in the company was running smoothly.
"By the way, I heard that there's a spy in the Johnston Group. How's that going?" Sean asked casually.
Nicole's gaze slightly widened. "A spy?"
'Is Sean talking about what happened in the group a few
days ago?' Jared had told Nicole that it had been taken care of, so she did not pay much attention to that.
The Johnston Group only suffered losses because there was a spy who messed their operations up.
Sean nodded after seeing how clueless Nicole was. "It was said that an employee leaked information about the
company. However, the Johnston Group stopped their employees from talking about it, so nobody knew."
Nicole thought that the Johnston Group was perfectly reasonable for doing so. "Well, it's not something to be proud
of."
"Sean, I'm sure Mr. Johnston can handle this. Don't worry," Steve said, sounding confident.
Sean agreed. "I know. I was simply asking."
However, to his surprise, Nicole actually knew nothing about it. So, Sean figured that the incident had probably
been taken care of.
As they spoke, they quickly arrived at the top floor.
Then, they headed toward their respective rooms after gesturing to each other.
Nicole sat back in her chair after arriving at her office.
Her pupils constricted slightly as she thought to herself, 'I can't believe there's a spy in the Johnston Group.'
'Who could it be? What could be the motivation for that person to betray the company?'
In the Johnston Group, Max went into Jared's office after knocking on the door.
"Mr. Johnston, we investigated everyone in the company and haven't found anyone suspicious." The look on Max's
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmface was a little complicated.
Logically speaking, they should be happy with this outcome because it indicated that the internal operations of
Johnston Group were not compromised.
However, they could not figure out why the data would be leaked if there was nothing wrong within the company.
Was the investigation going in the wrong direction or was it because the spy was too good for them to trace?
Jared squinted, and his eyes were filled with darkness.
'If it isn't someone from the company, could it be that someone else hacked into the company's system and stole
the data?'
'The company's firewall system was designed by Nicole. Although Nolan breached it when she just returned, she
had already improved it after that. Is it possible for someone else to hack into the system so easily again?'
"Mr. Johnston." Upon seeing Jared's silence, Max's face darkened as he gritted his teeth and said, "Should I get the
team to conduct a deeper investigation?"
"No," Jared spoke in a cold voice. "There's no need to create panic. Just let it be if nothing's wrong."
