Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1610

He looked coldly at Ruby. "I only asked you to help me with the work of bridging our Al intelligence technology and the machinery we use. I gave you full authority over the management involved in the area of machinery, but I never seemed to have put you in charge of handling other company matters."

Ruby stood still, and I felt embarrassed for her. After a few brief seconds, she looked up again and looked at Theo as if she had found a new excuse.

"But Mr. Grant, if such important information is so easily privately kept by others, then my work will be in vain. This entails months of hard work from our team.

Not wanting Theo to waste his effort bothering with such things, I spoke again," Following your idea, do you mean to say we should put each employee in a separate room with all office appliances, including computers, provided by us? Should we also install surveillance cameras in each room? Shall we do a thorough inspection when employees clock in and out, maybe even include an X-ray scan of the body?"

I deliberately blew things very out of proportion, but what I said was also in accordance with the conditions set by Ruby's questions.

Ruby looked at me with anger in her eyes. I knew she wanted to say that I was picking a fight with her, and I was indeed doing so. However, she could not just say it out loud in front of Theo, so even if she found a reason to pick on Keith, there was no way I was going to let her have the opportunity to bully him.

"Mrs. Grant, you misunderstood. I don't mean that. The solutions you came up with are useful, but the implementation will have a certain degree of difficulty. It's understandable, though. You're not the manager of the company, after all. Being able to come up with such methods is good, but I believe that Mr. Grant must have his own considerations. After all, he knows just how important the information kept within the company is."

"Oh, yes." Then, she added, "I forgot something. Mrs. Grant, you’ve had a period of rest at home, so you must be rusty with the company's rules. I shouldn't have said that just now. I didn't think it through. Please forgive me, Mrs. Grant." "That's right-" I was about to open my mouth to retort, but Theo got the jump on me.

"When you reminded me of this, I remembered that for such a long time, there had never been issues with the data stored on Keith’s computer. But at this moment when we're preparing to enter the field of artificial intelligence, the data was suddenly and inexplicably lost. I'm guessing it should be someone from the rival company who had a hand in this."

Gradually, I watched as the expression on Ruby’s face stiffened.

"Then this matter is indeed not to be underestimated. It must be thoroughly investigated. Keith is responsible for the loss of information, but it’s even more necessary for me to uncover this person. Otherwise our efforts will become the stepping stone for others. That won’t be

good."

I was amused by Theo's tone of voice and quietly turned around, unable to stop myself from covering my mouth and snickering.

"We’re indeed exhausted today, and we were delayed for a long time because of the data incident. It's late, so let's all go back first."

Theo ordered, "Tomorrow, I'll come to the company earlier and head to the security department to check the surveillance footage. I'll find out the cause of this matter and give everyone an explanation."

He finished speaking and looked specifically at Ruby. "Don't worry, I’ll make sure that the security department investigates carefully. I’ll definitely not allow your hard work to go to waste."
