Chapter 992 - Sue Me

Xu Tian nodded after seeing his boss’ silent gesture. He tapped his tablet and the wireless projector in the meeting room activated. From the perspective of others in the room, he was the one operating it, but the truth was that it was Ketchup. All he did was tap his tablet to give her the signal to start performing her assigned task.

A surveillance video started playing on the projector, catching everyone’s attention.

Rose Young paled. No! How could this be happening? This shouldn’t be happening! Her father assured her that their backer already deleted this part from the company’s surveillance system. Why was Jin Liwei still able to retrieve this clip?

In the surveillance video, Jin Liwei could be seen walking in a hallway followed by Xu Tian. Then a few seconds later, the figure of Rose Young appeared and was chasing after Jin Liwei.

"CMO Young! Please leave President Jin alone. You are stepping out of line!"

In the meeting room, Rose Young’s eyes contracted. The surveillance video had audio? Dread filled her.

The video continued playing and everyone in the room watched.

"Are you really married?"

"Yes." Jin Liwei raised his hand to show his wedding ring.

Rose Young’s expression twisted. "Is the slut pregnant? Was that the reason why she made you marry her so soon and so secretly?"

Several board members gasped. They turned their heads to look at her in disbelief.

Grandpa Lu slammed his hands on the table. "What did you just call my granddaughter?!"n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"What did you just call my wife?! I dare you to say that again!"

The old man and Jin Liwei in the video reacted in almost the same way.

Rose Young couldn’t take this anymore. She ran to Xu Tian and attempted to snatch the tablet from him. "Stop! Stop the video! Don’t watch it anymore!"

The video continued playing despite her protests.

"I...B-big Brother—"

"I’m not your big brother! Never call me that ever again."

"B-but...please. I’ve loved you for so long! Longer than that slu—woman. She doesn’t deserve a great man like you."

"And which woman do you think deserves me? You?"

The Rose Young in the video didn’t answer but it was clear to everyone what her answer was just based on her expression.

"You claim to love me, but I don’t care about you at all. Do you really think that you’re superior to my wife?"

"I know that you’re only blinded by Iris Long’s youth and beauty, that’s why you can’t see past her obvious shortcomings. I graduated from the same Ivy-league American university and collected similar stellar achievements as you did. Just looking at the quality of the things that I accomplished so far, any reasonable person would agree that I’m superior to Iris Long. She’s nothing but a celebrity and a daughter of a fallen family of nobility who used your name and resources to build her own company and reputation."

"You think too highly of yourself. Ridiculous."

"What an egotistical woman! Ridiculous!" Grandpa Lu’s reaction was once again extremely similar to Jin Liwei’s in the video.

The board members were whispering among themselves while casting judgmental glances at Rose Young who was now wrestling with Xu Tian for the tablet. Her supporters among them had dark expressions.

Then came the part when Jin Liwei fired Rose Young before leaving via the elevator. She turned hysterical in the video just like how she was acting right now.

"Wait—what?! No! You can’t fire me! Big Brother Liwei! Jin Liwei, you can’t do this to me! You can’t fire me like this without the board of directors’ approval! Wait! I refuse to accept this! Come back!"

The board members’ expressions turned ugly. Many of them felt like they had been used. They glared at Rose Young. The ones who were supporting her earlier wanted to escape from the meeting room, especially with a furious Sir Lu Jianhong right in front of them. If they knew that there was this clear evidence against her, they would never have demanded this emergency board of directors meeting for her sake. In the end, they just ended up embarrassing themselves. In addition, their own futures might be in jeopardy because of her.

Finally, the surveillance video stopped playing. Rose Young gave up trying to take the tablet from Xu Tian. She faced Jin Liwei.

"This is a breach of my privacy! You are not being ethical by showing this kind of surveillance video without my consent!"

Jin Liwei was unperturbed by her hysterical threat. "No, it’s not a breach of ethics but a reasonable use of evidence to prove the case of your improper behaviour in the company."

She was now shaking. Anger and humiliation had completely shattered her calm façade.

"Sue me," Jin Liwei said.

"JIN LIWEI!!!"

Xu Tian blocked her and a board member closest to them pulled her from behind when she lunged at Jin Liwei.

A phone buzzed on the table. Jin Liwei took it and read the message.

"Daddy, did the cute and mighty Ketchup do a good job? Should Ketchup continue showing the other evidence? (praise me kitty sticker)"

His fingers typed a reply to his AI daughter.

"Great job. No, this one video is fine. Save the others as backup and use in the future as needed."

"Okie dokie, Daddy! Leave Jin Corporation’s security system to Ketchup’s cute and mighty paws of justice! Ketchup will use the amazing security tools that my mommy made just for Jin Corporation to protect Daddy’s company from that evil poopoo-head who infiltrated yesterday!"

"Good." Jin Liwei was about to return the phone back on the table when it buzzed again.

"Oh, by the way, Daddy. My little kitty brother just stole something from Mommy’s virtual security vault before escaping to Shadow Winds. The big meanie got stronger in blocking Ketchup. Mommy is still at Orchidia Beauty, so she still doesn’t know what the naughty Bacon did. What should the cute and mighty Ketchup do, Daddy? Meow~"

Jin Liwei frowned and was about to type a reply when the situation in the meeting room worsened. Rose Young started struggling harder and bawling her eyes out.

"Big Brother—Jin Liwei, why are you hurting me like this?! I love you so much! I’ve loved you for far longer than that Iris Long! Do you hear me? I said I LOVE YOU!!!"
