Kris Cooper had already requested leave for her, simply saying she was injured and couldn’t co to work. Of course, Kate Palr knew about this and even called yesterday to inquire about her situation.
"Much better." Vera Wave smiled at her and walked over to sit in front of her desk. "Manager, I’ve thought about it, and I think... this project should be given to Archie Perkin?"
Kate put down the pen in her hand and stared at her in so surprise, "Reason."
"As you can see, I’m currently like half a cripple, and..." Vera pursed her lips, "I think she’s more suitable for this project."
"You an... you’re withdrawing from the manager competition?"
"Of course not, I’m not conceding." Vera spoke earnestly, "I don’t want to give up, I just want to compete with her in the next project."
She had already seen the other’s proposal, and even if she won, it would be an unworthy victory.
However, Vera didn’t want to sell Mary out; although she looked down on Mary’s actions, the other party, no matter what, was trying to help her, although the thod was wrong.
Selling out soone who helped you isn’t the right thing to do.
Kate was just about to speak when the door was heavily knocked on, the forcefulness evident even from the sound.
Kate raised an eyebrow.
"Co in!"
The door was forcefully pushed open, and Archie Perkin walked in dragging Mary alongside, speaking angrily.
"Manager, I want to file a complaint!"
"Don’t pull , why are you pulling ?!"
Mary struggled hard to shake off her grip, her gaze landing on Vera sitting in the room, causing her to pause.
"Who do you want to complain about?!" Kate asked.
At this point, Archie Perkin also noticed Vera sitting at the desk, her eyes landing on Vera’s face, and she pointed directly at her.
"Her, Vera! She conspired with Mary to steal my proposal!"
"You... what nonsense are you spouting, I didn’t steal it!" Mary imdiately began to defend herself, "I never stole anything."
"Hmph!" Archie snorted coldly, "If you didn’t steal it, then where’s my USB drive?"
Mary was about to speak, but Vera had already stood up.
"I have it!" she said, taking the USB drive out of her pocket, "Is this it?"
Seeing the USB drive in her hand, Archie instantly walked over and snatched it from her grip.
"That’s right, this is my USB drive!" She turned her face, looking at Mary, "Do you still want to deny stealing it?"
"I..."
Mary was at a loss for words, not expecting Vera to take the initiative to reveal the USB drive.
"She didn’t steal it." Vera spoke again, "Mary found it and handed it to , thinking it was mine."
Mary had originally thought Vera would sell her out, but when Vera spoke up for her, she imdiately chid in, "Exactly, that’s it, I found it, I didn’t steal it! There was no na on it, how was I supposed to know whose it was, I thought it was Vera’s!"
"Birds of a feather!" Archie sneered disdainfully and turned her face again to look at Kate, "Manager Kate, how are we going to handle this? My proposal is now here, and Vera must have already seen it. How do we resolve this situation?"
Kate, being the person she was, had long since guessed the rough truth and finally understood the real reason why Vera wanted to give up this project.
Looking at Vera in front of the desk, Kate raised the corners of her lips.
If it were soone else, at this point Vera would just need not to admit it, and no one could do anything to her. Given her current status, who could question her?
