Chapter 295
Alarmed that things weren’t going as she hoped it would, Maya spoke, “Dominic, this issue has nothing to do with that demolition project. I’m positive.”
Dominic’s eyes slightly, narrowed. “How did you know?”
Her expression turned awkward. “Because those residents are people from the lower class. How are they able to perform such things? You’re overthinking it.”
The mention of social class added grimness to his tone. “The lower class? Have you forgotten
where you came from?*
There was a huge shift in her expression. She quickly said, “This is a different matter. Leave this issue to me. I won’t let you down.”
He was smart enough to grow suspicious about it having something to do with the demolition.
After all, Mia wouldn’t hack into the company’s system without a solid reason. He had faith in her character.
Right then, someone from the Technical Department shrieked, “Mr. Lane, that hacker hacked into our system again. He emailed a voice recording this time.”
Surprised, Dominic ordered, “Let’s hear what it says.”
Meanwhile, Maya had a bad feeling about this.
Could it be the conversation she shared with Mia at the waiting area?
Did Mia hire someone to do all this?
Maya overlooked a possibility–Mia might not have the capability to hack, but she could find someone else to do so!
Someone played the recording, which revealed a conversation between two women. It was Maya and Mia’s conversation earlier.
Maya’s face fell and she jumped to deny it, “Dominic, this is not my voice. It’s phishing!”
Dominic frowned at Maya’s haughty attitude toward Mia.
He looked at Maya before berating her. “Do you take me for a fool? I’m smart enough to tell that you’re lying. What do you mean by that? You stopped the compensation procedure? How dare you, Maya Lane!*

Finally, he knew the whole story of the situation.
He glared at Randy. “Speak up! If you don’t give me an explanation, all of you will be fired!”
Dominic’s assistant read the room and urged the others to leave the office.
Randy and Maya stood at their places. She gulped. “Dominic, we’re just following the procedures. That family hasn’t received the compensation because some of the documents weren’t aligned. We need them to hand over the remaining files.”
