Chapter 436: Chapter 436: Locking on the Leak

Upon hearing Chief Daniel Marshall’s voice, the secretary general came over. Chief Daniel signaled her to be quiet, and she dared not say more.

Only after the HR colleague had left, did the secretary general follow Chief Daniel with the resume to his office desk.

“Is she an HR employee?”

The secretary general truthfully replied, “Chief Daniel, yes! Her name is Grace Ziegler, and she has occasionally delivered documents here since around September.”

“You may leave now, ask Assistant Howard to come in.”

“Yes!”

Adam sat down, watching Daniel with great interest, “I heard that you pulled Director Martinez down? People are gossiping about this.”

Daniel’s expression seemed indifferent, the corner of his mouth lifted in a cruel smile. He disregarded the whispers, “There’s a female employee in HR named Grace Ziegler. I just saw her. Coincidentally, she has a faint crescent mark on her chin.

Adam, pull out her employment file and investigate her background secretly. This is something that only you and I should know; it absolutely cannot be known to a third party, or it will spook her.

Also, show her photo to Philip Lee. Have him recall everything carefully, to see if he remembers anything. Or, let Philip Lee confirm whether the location of the crescent mark is correct.”

Adam showed surprise, “That’s too much of a coincidence, it could be fate. Don’t worry, I’ll act discreetly. Of course, it needs to be kept a secret. Like yesterday’s incident, it was terrifying and we could be in danger ourselves. If they found out where Auntie is, she might be in danger.”

“The little girl that Philip Lee saw should be twenty-two years old now, if she graduated from university, she should be working. If Grace Ziegler is that little girl, I should be able to see my mom.”

Daniel’s eyes carried a complex expression, his eyebrows tightly furrowed.

Adam comforted him, “You don’t have to worry, Auntie surely wants to see you. Having a younger sister, that wouldn’t be bad.”

A brief flicker of emotion crossed Daniel’s handsome face, “Adam, you investigate thoroughly first, it’s too early to say anything now.

Also, investigate Grace Martinez properly. I suspect she and James have a secret relationship; I suspect that Grace does not want James to go abroad.

Grace Martinez is the HR director. If she wants to do something, it will be very convenient for her. I suspect she is the spy James has planted near us.

I went to Jasper County without any planned schedules; it was a last-minute decision. Someone must have leaked information about when I left the company. There are moles planted in the president’s office.”

When I looked for Joseph Charles, I am sure James knew about it. His relations with Sebastian Thompson must be close. If James wanted to know about Sebastian’s plans, all he needed to do was buy off someone close to Sebastian.”

During the regular executive meeting, my father immediately announced James’s transfer and sent him abroad. My dad must have had suspicions and perhaps heard something, which made him rush to question Bella if they’ve done something treacherous to me again.

The mother and son were still safe in the countryside, which indicates they were not the culprits. James is the prime suspect.”

Adam spat out irritably, “They are all more vicious than the last, such disgraceful people!”

“I asked you to investigate the president’s office staff, how is that going? The new HR director must be appointed by me, and the personnel of the president’s office must also be selected by me.

Adam, contact the headhunting company and find several candidates. We can no longer promote internally from within the corporation since it’s infiltrated with spies, and it’s not safe. This team needs new members to mix things up, preferably a tough one.”

“Daniel, I understand. Last night, I arranged a dinner and ate with several people from the president’s office, I should be able to confirm who the mole is.”
