"What? They're not our employees?" Brandon was stunned by the news brought by his assistant, feeling dizzy and incredulous. His face, bloated from long-term medication, trembled uncontrollably.
The assistant nodded. "Yes, I confirmed their appearance through the surveillance in the elevator. Then I compared them with our company's employee database and found that they don't exist in our records at all. I even suspected that they were temporary workers whose information was not entered into the system. I asked the managers of each department, who then inquired further with the supervisors. The final answer was that no one had seen these two men before. It's obvious that they infiltrated our company."
Brandon's face contorted with anger, his teeth grinding. "So, you're saying that these two people were deliberately sent here to expose this matter in front of Mr. Sharp and make him investigate me?"
The assistant lowered his head. "That's what I think too. Besides this reason, there is no other explanation for why these two people, who are not our employees, suddenly appeared in our company and coincidentally brought up that matter in front of Mr. Sharp. Apparently, someone is intentionally targeting us. Could it be our competitor companies? We've been aggressively competing with several companies recently, and they might have had enough of us. It wouldn't be surprising if they did something like this."
Hearing the assistant's speculation, Brandon shook his head, his face filled with gloom. "It's not them."
"Not them?" A surprised expression appeared on the assistant's darkened face. "Why do you say so?"
"The collapse of the mine didn't cause a big commotion back then because I blocked the news in time. So, only a few people knew about it. Even many executives in Trison Corporation were unaware of this matter, let alone those competitor companies. Additionally, many years have passed since this incident, and during these years, I have discreetly dealt with some people who knew about it back then. Therefore, apart from you and me, the only person in the entire company who knows about it is Randolph Garner from the Planning Department. Although he doesn't respect me, he wouldn't disclose this matter. After all, it's not just about me but also the Trison Corporation. While he is eager to bring me down, he doesn't want any mistakes. After all, there would be little point in him taking over a company teetering on the edge of collapse. Otherwise, he would have already exposed this matter."
"That means those competitor companies indeed have no way of knowing about this matter," the assistant analyzed while stroking his chin.
Narrowing his eyes, which had become noticeably smaller compared to before, Brandon said in a deep voice, "If I'm not mistaken, it was Julien's doing."
"Mr. Flint?" The assistant was shocked. "He knows about this?"
"Initially, Julien didn't know. When I tried to clear up some evidence, I didn't have enough manpower and borrowed some from him. You know, Lyra had ensnared him back then. Although Lyra became a vegetable, she was always in his heart. So, he has provided shelter for my family and Trison Corporation. When he heard I needed manpower, he didn't hesitate to lend me a hand. Although I didn't tell him what I needed them for at that time, he would definitely ask later. So, it was not surprising he knew."
"I see." The assistant nodded in enlightenment.
Brandon clenched his fists even tighter. "Now he has exposed this matter to Mr. Sharp to revenge against me."
The assistant looked at him. "Because you hired trolls to spread rumors about Sydney?"
"What else could it be?" Brandon snorted.
