Mindy rushed to the lounge, but just as she was about to open the door, she heard a man and a woman moaning inside.
She stopped and frowned. How bold of them to do such a thing during the day. It looked like Idrisâs management of the company was getting worse.
As she debated whether to open the door or head to Idrisâs office, the conversation inside made her freeze.
âYou naughty little thing! Are you trying to suck me dry?â
âIdris, take it easy! Donât leave marks on my neck. Others might notice.â
âWouldnât it be more exciting if they did?â
It was Idris and Sophia!
Mindy was shaking. She had been trying to figure out who his mistress was, but she never thought it would be Sophia.
Sophia was the daughter of her distant cousin. Mindy was the one who had recommended that she worked at Pond Corporation.
Besides, Idris was supposed to be Sophiaâs uncle.
Mindy did not expect them to hook up. How could they not feel disgusted?
She could not remember how she left the company. Although she wanted to barge into the room and give them a piece of her mind, she could not find the courage.
What would exposing them achieve anyway?
If she and Idris divorced, she would be left with nothing. She would not let that happen!
Mindy was set on holding onto the title of Mrs. Pond. She would not allow Sophia to take over!
...
The court hearing went smoothly. Perficientâs lawyer quickly used the so-called âinitial draftâ to prove that MY Corporation copied Perficientâs designs.
He demanded a compensation of fifty million dollars for their losses.
MY Corporationâs lawyer struggled from the start and failed to respond effectively to Perficientâs lawyer.
Meanwhile, Ada wore a proud smile as she sat in the audience.
Mr. Remus, Your Billionaire Wife Wants a Divorce It looked like suing them would be easier than expected. The judges and jury all believed that the date on the draft was real. Just as Liam had predicted, almost no one in the country could tell that the image was fake.
She got up and left the court. She saw several missed calls from Idris, but he did not answer when she called back.
Ada stopped calling and messaged Liam instead.
[The lawsuitâs going well. We can plan a celebration party.]
She kept her phone and walked up to her car by the road.
The reporters approached her just as she reached it.
Ada wore what she thought was a perfect smile and prepared to talk, but the reporters bombarded her with sharp questions.
âMiss Pond, did you ever think that Perficient would lose the lawsuit?â
âMiss Pond, MY Corporation wants a public apology from Perficient, and theyâre demanding fifty million dollars in compensation. When do you intend to settle this?â
âMiss Pond, online opinion of Perficient has become unfavorable. The companyâs future seems rocky. Did you consider these consequences when you falsely accused MY Corporation of plagiarism?â
As the questions came one after another, Adaâs smile faded. She frowned and asked, âWhat nonsense are you talking about?! How could MY Corporation possibly win?!â
Seeing the confidence in her eyes, a reporter mocked her. âMiss Pond, did you leave before the verdict? MY Corporationâs lawyer presented evidence that proved the picture of your initial draft was fake. The judge gave his ruling, and Perficient lost. MY Corporation is now planning to sue your company at a later date.â
When Ada heard the word âfake,â her face turned pale. âNo way! That canât be true!â she said.
Liam had told her that nobody would discover it was fake. How could Perficient lose?!
She attempted to go back in to check the results of the trial. Just then, her phone rang.
