Chapter 75
The Secret of the Warehouse
“I have seven mouths to feed in my family Now that Mr Ingram said we have to suspend the production, how am I
supposed to get paid then?”
“Don’t get me wrong Mr. Ingram meant that the first, second, and third production lines will continue running But
the fourth and fifth lines should stop for the time being. It’s not that you have to quit. Just go home and wait for the
notice.”
“For how long? I have seven mouths to feed. I can’t wait even for one day!”
“Anton, you are the team leader of the fourth line. How dare you take the lead to go against me? I don’t care what
difficulty you have! There is no room for negotiation! You have to do as I say!”
“Mr. Collins, Mr. Ingram has promised each one of us a rich life. I don’t want power. I want money! And he promised
that he would give us enough money to make a living!”
“Has Mr. Ingram ever treated you unfairly this year? Can’t you see that? Now that the company has Ms Tate, who is
in charge of the whole company. She is determined to get to know every business in this company. The fourth and
fifth lines must be stopped. All the inventory in the warehouse must also be transferred to another place in the next
two days. Otherwise, not to mention you and me, Mr. Ingram will be in trouble too!”
Paige finally understood. It turned out that the things produced by the fourth and fifth production lines at night were
something that could not be exposed.
The two people who spoke should be Roderick Collins of the production department and the leader of the fourth
production line. Since they said that the inventory in the warehouse must be transferred to another place in the
next two days, Paige could guess that
there was something wrong with these goods.
Paige quietly left and came to the warehouse on the first floor.
At night, there was no one watching the warehouse. However, Paige failed to unlock the door of the warehouse
with her fingerprint. It
was weird, given that her fingerprint should have been recorded in the system and she could go anywhere in this

She entered the password but the door still remained motionless. Normally, this password could allow her to be

company
Unless someone erased her data to block her out of this door.
This thought got Paige interested. She suddenly wanted to know if Nigel was playing tricks behind her back as she
had guessed.
The door of the warehouse was locked with three passwords, and Paige easily cracked it. Not only did she cr*k the
door, but she
also tampered with the surveillance recording.
There were various kinds of clothes in the warehouse, arranged in different categories, including some old goods
and new products
and the finished products that were processed by other companies

in the company system.
Paige copied everything on the computer and sent it to her email, then erased all the traces she left.
Suddenly, a burst of footsteps came from outside the warehouse.
Paige jumped onto the beam and looked down. The people who came in were Roderick and several employees.
But all the employees were strangers to Paige.
Paige suddenly understood. The workers who worked in the daytime and at night were not the same!
These people should be Nigel’s men.
Each of them also had a wooden stick in their hands.
They turned on the lights in the warehouse and searched everywhere, but did not find anyone.
“Mr. Collins, did the new girl scare you too much? She is quite tough.”
“There are no signs of anyone entering the warehouse”
Roderick said nothing.
He glanced over the warehouse and felt something strange “Go check the surveillance cameras”
The surveillance footage had been tampered with by Paige. Although the cameras were still recording, there was
no trace of Paige in
the footage anymore.
The employee checked the surveillance and immediately reported, “Mr. Collins, no one entered the warehouse
tonight.”
“That’s strange. I was told that Ms Tate entered the company just now. Did he see it wrongly?”
Roderick was puzzled.
Just now, an employee went downstairs to get takeout and saw a figure that looked like Paige entering the exclusive
elevator, and he
was sure that it was Paige.
Roderick was still worried. So he asked his men to check the surveillance of the company’s door.
If Paige really came here, the camera would have captured her face.
One of the employees hurriedly went to check the surveillance. Paige took out her mobile phone and wiped off all
the pictures that she entered the company. Then she turned on the camera and started recording what they said
and what they did.
“Mr. Collins, if Ms. Tate really came back and knew that we were producing those goods, what should we, do next?”
One of the employees was worried that Paige would find out about them.
“If Ms. Tate continues her investigation, it won’t be long before we are exposed!”
“Will we lose our jobs?”
“If Ms. Tate knew, not to mention losing our jobs, we might also be put in jail!”
Roderick heard what they were talking about and sneered, “If someone has an accident on the way to and from
work, there will be no one to be blamed. Let’s say that she just has bad luck.”
When the employees heard this, they were immediately frightened. Roderick meant that if Paige really came back

But Paige was sent by the headquarters. Maybe she had some background that they did not know.
After a while, the man who went to check the surveillance came back “Mr Collins, Ms Tate did not come to the
company tonight. I
think it’s just a mistake.”
“False alarm! Then what are we waiting for? Let’s get back to work!”
“I was scared half to death. I thought Ms. Tate really came. I even thought that she had come to the warehouse!”
The five or six of them turned off the lights and were about to leave.
However, suddenly, Paige’s mobile phone vibrated. It was Martin who called.
The recording was cut off.
Roderick heard something and hurriedly asked, “Whose mobile phone is vibrating?”
“Not me.”
They all took out their mobile phones, but none of their phones were vibrating.
Get B
Paige hung up the phone and muted it. Then, she sent Martin a message, “I have something to deal with. See you
later.”
“Okay.”
Martin thought that she was in trouble, but now it seemed that he was worried too much.
Roderick listened carefully, but there was no sound at all. Did he hear it wrong?
“Mr. Collins, you’re too sensitive! Look at you, you’ve been affected by that little girl!” One of them laughed.
“This warehouse is not that big. If she really hid here, we would have found her.”
A few of them laughed and pulled Roderick away.
The door of the warehouse was closed.
Paige narrowed her eyes. It seemed that they had more secrets than she had imagined.
The warehouse was dark.
Paige did not jump down right away but continued to stay on the beam.
The lights outside the warehouse were as bright as day. Several figures stopped at the door of the warehouse,
leaving a few shadows
on the ground.
