Chapter 589

Later, she got up from her seat and walked around the experimental bench, biding her time. When the time came, she returned to the computer and pretended to be confused.

“What’s wrong with this set of data, Neera? Are you so indifferent to others’ work?”

Neera, who knew Thora’s sinister intentions, glanced up from her experimental table with an unimpressed expression.

“Thora, if you’re looking for trouble on purpose, save your energy. I don’t have time to waste on you.”

Neera’s aloof attitude further irritated Thora. “Who wants to pick a fight with you? Why won’t you let someone else point out your mistakes?”

She suddenly raised her voice, her words becoming shrill and piercing.

“If you don’t believe me, come take a look for yourself. The medication dosage calculated by this set of data is completely off! What are you doing? You pretend to be all consumed with your work, but your heart is wandering elsewhere, isn’t it? Who are you putting on this facade for?!”

She seized the opportunity to vent her frustrations, unleashing a barrage of accusatory words that left little room for anyone to interject.

Neera frowned slightly but chose to ignore Thora, instead choosing to inspect the data herself.

Luigi and Osbert sensed that something was amiss, prompting them to come over.

With a single glance, Neera’s eyes narrowed.

This particular set of data had been recorded by her. She prided herself on being meticulous and had an exceptional memory. She had completed the data earlier in the morning and had conducted a thorough review before leaving, ensuring that everything was accurate.

So, there was no room for error,

Moreover, this computer was restricted to only a select few core members due to the sensitive nature of the

data it contained.

At that moment, Neera turned to Lewis and Osbert.

“Have either of you accessed this data?”

Both of them shook their heads, and Neera had complete trust in their honesty.

Neera glanced over and glared at Thora.

“Neither of them has accessed the data, yet it has been tampered with. That’s strange.”

Thora raised her eyebrows and fixed a challenging gaze on Neera.

“What do you mean? It’s obviously because of your carelessness, and now you’re trying to shift the blame onto others?”

Neera remained calm and spoke in a measured tone.

“I’m sure that I didn’t make a mistake.

Thora countered, “Are you sure you didn’t make a mistake? The evidence is right here, yet you’re still arguing?”

Neera smirked, but her eyes were cold.

“I kept two copies of the data, one as a backup.”

With a determined air, Neera retrieved a hard drive from her bag and connected it to the computer. She swiftly accessed all the experimental data from the past two days. A comparison of the two sets revealed no difference except for the particular data set in question.

“Do you still have any doubts?” Neera put away the hard drive and savored Thora’s shifting expressions during the brief pause.

Seeing Thora’s silence, Neera raised an eyebrow and continued, “Since I’m not under suspicion, it’s enough to prove that someone tampered with this data. However, it doesn’t matter, I’m an adult and I’m willing to give her another chance. If she were to come forward now and admit it, I’m willing to forgive and forget.”

As Neera said this, her gaze remained fixed on Thora.

How could Thora admit to tampering with the data?

She felt her guilt intensify under the unrelenting stare, causing her to break into a cold sweat,

“What do you mean by this? Are you saying that I’m responsible for this?”

Neera frowned, her tone growing colder.

“Whether you did it or not, I can’t conclude this matter at this moment. However, I can check the surveillance footage. If I find any evidence, I won’t show any mercy!”

With those words, Neera immediately called Katy.

“Get the surveillance footage and find out who accessed this computer from the time I left for a break this morning until now.”

Thora’s expression grew increasingly tense at Neera’s words, and the atmosphere in the room became strained.

Luigi sensed that something was amiss and frowned but didn’t intervene. Osbert, on the other hand, stared at Thora with a cold, unwavering gaze.

As Katy prepared to carry out Neera’s orders, Thora panicked and hastily called out to her, “Wait!”

Katy paused and regarded Thora with an impassive expression. “What is it?” she inquired dispassionately.

Thora found herself riding a tiger and had no choice but to search for an escape route lamely.

“Perhaps… I might have accidentally pressed the wrong button earlier. I wasn’t paying attention, so there’s no need to check,” Thora stammered.

Neera’s expression darkened abruptly.

“Thora, are you saying that we shouldn’t investigate this? You avoided participating in the research and development on purpose, and now you’re not willing to help, but you choose to sabotage it instead. Do you think I won’t investigate it? Do you believe I’m too afraid to do so? Is this your work ethic, making a mockery of everyone’s efforts? If that’s the case, I think you should leave immediately. I cannot tolerate people like you here.”

Neera’s words were stern and unyielding, devoid of any semblance of compromise. She pointed towards the door, demanding her to leave.
