Chapter 4 Innocent

"Because I don't want to change my job at all. I don't think I need to report it." Joyce Ruan said adamantly. The way the director of Design Department looked at her just now made her feel very aggrieved. And Luke Li was aggressive, implying that she had sold her design draft!

"Did you reject it? That's not what we found out. " Luke Li stared at Joyce. His words were full of sarcasm.

"We found your bank account received a remittance of 200000 dollars recently. Then our design draft was leaked. We have absolute reasons to believe that it was you who did it!" Luke stood up and threw the documents in his hand angrily on the table in front of Joyce.

As soon as Luke Li stopped speaking, people in the office burst into an uproar. Joyce looked at the documents in front of her in surprise. It was indeed her bank account, but she didn't know the remittance at all! She looked up at Leo Xu who had a poker face and stated firmly, "it's not me! I have no idea about this! Trust me! "

"I didn't expect that you would do such a thing! I'm so disappointed in you! " The design director stood up angrily, pointed at Joyce Ruan and scolded.

"It's really not me! I won't do such a thing! " Joyce explained hurriedly. But people around all looked at her with mockery. No one believed her.

"Why should we believe you?" Leo, who had been silent all the time, finally spoke. He stared at Joyce expressionlessly. His eyes were unfathomable. No one could tell how he was feeling at the moment.

"I will find the evidence! I'm innocent! " She gritted her teeth and looked at the people present with resolute expression in her eyes.

"Humph, give you some time to transfer the money? The undeniable evidence was here! Why are you still defending? " Luke said with a cold snort whose face was full of contempt.

"I... I...I didn't do that! Give me three days! I will find the evidence! " Joyce didn't know what to do in a short time. She could only buy time and then try to find the evidence!

"Shut up!" The design director angrily reprimanded Joyce. He turned around and said to Leo with a humble smile, "I'm sorry, Mr. Xu. This is our company's mistake. I will handle it immediately. I will fire Joyce and let her compensate for our loss. This project..."

Before the design director finished his words, Leo Xu interrupted him. He didn't even look at him, but stared at Joyce with his deep eyes.

"Okay, I will give you three days, and three days later, give me the evidence."

"But..." Upon hearing this, the design director immediately looked uneasy. When he was about to say something, he was frightened by the sharp eyes of Leo and immediately closed his mouth.

"Thank you. I will find the evidence!" Joyce gratefully looked at Leo. She sniffed and held back the tears.

Seeing that Joyce was about to cry, Leo felt his heart ached. Why would he feel so sad when he saw her cry? He felt that he was so familiar with her and had the desire to protect her.

After all the people in the conference room left, Leo stared at the documents on the table silently, which revealed that Joyce received benefits. Then he fixed his eyes on the transfer time. His eyes grew sharp and then he picked up the phone and dialed a number.

"Hello, son, what makes you call me today?" It was Tracy on the other end of the line.

"Mom, do you know Joyce?" Leo asked straightforwardly. There was a glint of understanding in his wise eyes.

Hearing this, Tracy remained silent for a long time. Finally, she replied lightly, "Yes."

Three days later, Joyce collapsed in the office dejectedly. She ran everywhere but couldn't find any evidence to prove that she didn't do it.

"Hey! ! !" Joyce heaved a deep sigh helplessly.

"Don't sigh. The leaves were all gone!" Serena Li walked out silently.

Being taken aback by Serena, Joyce screamed and fell back. The chair behind her could not bear her weight and she fell back straightly.

"Watch out!" Serena stood up in a hurry, but she immediately covered her eyes with her hands rather than reach out to hold Joyce's chair.

"Do you think she can't fall as you cover your eyes with your hands?" Henry teased.

Worrying that she might fall down, Joyce opened her eyes wide, trembling. At that moment, Henry held her chair from behind so that she wouldn't fall down.

"Yes! You are such a fool! " As soon as Joyce fell to the ground steadily, the first thing she did was to speak to Serena in an angry tone.

"What are you doing? I didn't mean it. Look at you. You're amazing! I don't want to see you. Get out of here! " Serena glared at him.

"Don't flatter yourself. I didn't ask for you." Henry was speechless. He rolled his eyes at Serena Li and then turned to Joyce Ruan. "Leo wants to see you. Come with me."

"What does he want to do? Is he going to blame Joyce? " Serena asked with her eyes wide open.

"Maybe..." Joyce sighed helplessly and followed Henry out of the office disappointedly.

"I want to go with you!" After thinking for a while, Serena trotted to keep up with them and directly got into Henry's car.

"What are you doing here?" Henry looked askance at her.

"It's none of your business. Just focus on driving!" Serena Li retorted sharply.

Half an hour later, Henry stopped his car steadily at the dock. He got off the car first and pointed to a cruise ship on the shore.

"Let's go. He is there."

"Wow! Cruise? It seems that I didn't come in vain! " Serena ran towards the cruise ship with excitement, completely ignoring Joyce's matter.

Joyce watched her speechlessly, walking slowly towards the cruise ship.

With a glass of red wine in his hand, Leo stood on the deck in a white casual suit. He frowned and looked at Serena Li, who was not invited here.

"I'm sorry to bother you. I have something important to talk to you." Henry grabbed Serena's ponytail and stopped her from rushing up the deck. He carried her over his shoulder and walked towards the other side of the cruise.

"Hey! ! You profligate! Let go of me! Do you hear me! !"

Accompanied by Serena Li's wailing, Joyce stood on the deck uneasily. She looked around, not knowing where to look. She didn't know why but she felt that the way Leo looked at her was different.

The cruise ship shook slightly. She felt a sense of weightlessness coming from her legs. She looked back and found the captain was starting the ship.

"Well, where are we going?" She asked with a little bit panic, because she was seasick!

"Three days is up. Have you found evidence?" Ignoring her question, he took a sip of the wine.
