Chapter 206: Suspension
Chapter 206: Suspension
But Cathy just passed by and finally walked back to her office without any pause.
The subordinates of the Department watched her leave carefully, then looked at each other, and eventually focused on Aaron who was working quietly in the corner of the office.
As one of the heroes of the event, he said nothing more and did nothing except being silence like everyone else.
But everyone knew that the argument at this time could not prove anything but reveal his guilty conscience.
Cathy sat in the office, meditated for a while, and opened the web page on her mobile phone. The first articles in the whole circle in Chicago were all about her. What were said in these articles seemed to really happen, and even the photos were very clear.
Even when she was eating out with James in Washington yesterday, they were taken pictures. The earliest picture was taken half a month ago. That was to say, she had been followed and photographed during this period.
She was not a popular star and no one would notice her. The only thing she could think of was that someone intentionally targeted her. Behind all the articles was just a murderer.
While scanning these articles, she received a text message.
Cathy clicked it to read.
It was from Aaron.
"Are you okay?"
"You can rest assured that I will find out the truth. You should be careful these days."
Cathy frowned slightly, moved her fingers and sent him a simple message quickly. "I'm all right."
Just after she sent out the message, Nick knocked on the door and came in.
"Cathy, Mr. Joyce has sent someone to inform you of the meeting."
Cathy calmed down for two seconds, turned off her cell phone indifferently, and faintly answered, "I know, you can go."
It was not a meeting at all but was the congress for condemning her. It seemed that someone couldn't wait to it seems that someone can't wait to watch her becoming a laughing stock.
Getting up, Cathy walked around the desk and went out. She unlock the collar button with her slim fingertips and looked cold.
Nick looked at her anxiously and wanted to say something to her but he finally said nothing.
No one expected that this thing would happen as soon as they came back. It was obvious that someone had planned it.
There were five or six people in the conference room. The company was not a big one, but almost all the people who dominated the important positions had arrived.
Cathy glanced at Mr. Brown, who waved to her and gave her a signal to sit down.
She went over and pulled the chair. Ivy, who was sitting next to her, looked very proud and raised the corner of his lips. "Congratulations on Cathy who has come back with a good news. She has signed a big project with Feng Rui company again."
Although he said "congratulations" to Cathy, every one could find out the sense of the irony in his words.
Cathy sat down. There was no smile on her white and beautiful face. She just graciously raised the corner of her lips. "It is our company's victory. The interests of the company are our interests. There is nothing to be praised for."
Ivy squinted and said quietly, "Cathy really can't understand the meaning of my words. Because of your own private life, the image of our company has been affected, which will cause all of us to be condemned by the headquarter. Aren't you going to give us the explanation? You really failed Mr. Brown's trust on you."
Headquarter?
Cathy frowned that the headquarter had known this matter so quickly?
She glanced at the woman next to her and smiled faintly. "Ivy, when can you take the place of Mr. Brown to state on the meeting? Are you going to take the place of Mr. Brown?"
Ivy looked cold, and said, "Cathy, it is useless to have a quarrel. Because of you, all the people in the company will be involved. Everyone is ashamed because of you. Do you think this matter can be passed smoothly in this way?"
Although Cathy did not smile, she always looked very calm and then she looked at the aggressive people at present. She felt a little funny and said, "What does Ivy, you want me to say? If said that it was all slander. Would you believe me? But it is absolutely impossible for you to let me admit it. As for the impact of this matter on the company, I admit it is my fault. And I'm sorry to let you all be implicated because of me."
She stood up and bowed deeply to the crowd.
"You said you were framed?" Ivy laughed coldly and sneered, "The photos are extremely clear. Even the illiterate will not be blind, is there the need to be framed by others? Don't You want to say that the photos are synthetic?"
Cathy pinched her fingers and bit her teeth. She didn't say anything immediately.
The present situation was extremely unfavorable to her. Before the thing was clarified, what she said now was meaningless.
Ivy thought she was guilty, smiled lightly and continued, "I remember someone has told us before that she and Mr. Raman were just cooperative relationship. What kind of cooperative relationship needs that you are so intimate with each other? It seems that you have returned to his home with him."
The strong irony and disdain seemed to hit Cathy in front of everyone.
Cathy still looked very calm, but her eyes were getting colder and colder. She did not deny it. She just made a simple statement, one word at a time, as if she was considering how to make a careful explanation. "Photos are not synthetic, but
just were interpreted out ofl.ne
As for my relationship with Mr. Raman, I will give you an account after checking the thing out. In a word, since I enter in Vanten Technology Company, I has not traded with any improper behavior so far."
After that, she looked at Mr. Brown who was sitting at the head of the table, "Mr. Brown, this is my explanation. If the headquarter wants to investigate me, I will not have any complaints."
Mr. Brown leaned askew on his chair, looked very elusive and indifferent, so that others couldn't guess what he was thinking.
After a long silence, he sighed and waved. "Sit down first. I'll investigate this matter clearly. It's just... Before it is clarified, let Ivy take the place of you for the time being. You've been too tired lately. Take a rest for a few days."
In fact, it was not that he didn't believe in Cathy. He had reviewed her efforts over the years, but this time the impact was so great that t had damaged the company's image. Even the wanted to appeal to her, he could not do that. The headquarter imposed the pressure on him, he could only use this kind.

of deferment strategy now.
What was more, after looking at those photos, even he was somewhat confused. Associating with Tyrone's care for her before, and James's occasional mention of her, plus some gossips from the company, he couldn't help her regardless of others' objections.
Cathy changed her face and took a deep breath. "Mr. Brown, I can have a rest, but there are so many people in the department, even if I am not here, they can continue to finish the work. So there is no need to find another person to take the place of me."This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
He just asked her to have a rest superficially, however, the fact was that he asked her to suspend. It was still unknown that whether she could reinstated at last. This was one of Cathy's most worrying problems before, but she didn't expect it would happen in this embarrassing way today.
Mr. Joyce raised the eyebrows and grinned. "Cathy, I'm usually very busy. I don't have enough time to manage a department anymore. The best way is to hand over the work and let everyone take their own responsibilities. The people in your department can also attentively analyze the data."
