Chapter 46 Three People Make a Tiger
Mona spoke convincingly with great detail, and her close colleague by her side fanned the flames.
Sienna didn’t expect Donald to even listen to her explanation.
Being able to work at Read Law already drew criticism, and she didn’t want Donald to be caught in a
trap and blamed by colleagues he had worked with for years.
“Mr. Read, L’
Sienna hesitated, lifting her eyes to him as if she wanted to say something but had too many
concerns.
Donald appeared exceptionally calm, as if he could accept whatever she said without any issue.
He understood that the world wasn’t just black and white, and Sienna’s unique position made her even
more conspicuous.
He didn’t want her to be trapped in the past. The sooner she could move on, the better. Otherwise,
she’d be stuck too deep, not only in will but also in spirit.
“You don’t have to worry about anything else, just tell me what happened.”
With Donald by her side, Sienna felt an inexplicable strength and calmly replied, “I could never send
client information to a competing law firm.”
“Every email I sent followed the spreadsheet Ms. Barton provided.”
Mona scoffed at Sienna’s words, pointing at her angrily. “Are you trying to pin all the problems on me?”
“I never gave you any spreadsheet, but I even made sure to organize the files properly before. handing
them to you, just to prevent any mishaps!”
Mona portrayed herself as a meticulous supervisor who cared about her subordinates, but Sienna only
felt irony in her words.
Sienna threw the spreadsheet Mona had given her, saying word by word, “Ms. Barton, I have no
reason to frame you. The truth is clear. You need to take responsibility for what you’ve done. I won’t
carry the blame for you!”
This wasn’t just taking the blame. It was sabotage, hoping Sienna would make a mistake, tarnish the
company’s reputation, and ultimately be driven out by Donald.
Mona’s plan was perfect. Donald’s favoritism toward Sienna was well-known, and the only way to make
her leave was to have Sienna commit an unforgivable error.
Only then would Donald reluctantly fire Sienna to appease the anger, forcing her to leave Read Law.

Mona was determined to achieve her goal, staring at Donald intently, waiting for him to say the
words she longed for.
Adrian picked up the spreadsheet and looked it over, noticing several email addresses for competing
law firms.
No wonder Sienna made a mistake. Only an experienced person familiar with those firms would
notice something was off.
“Donald, I’ve been at Read Law for years. How could I make such a low-level mistake?”
Mona pointed at Sienna, her eyes gleaming with fury. “She’s just an assistant who screwed up, and
now she wants to put it all on me. Isn’t this intentional?”
Sienna knew who was truly intentional.
However, Mona had handed her the spreadsheet in person, leaving no evidence. There were no
cameras in Sienna’s office to record Mona’s actions.
Sienna found herself in a dilemma. She knew Mona was the real culprit, but she couldn’t prove it.
“Ms. Barton,” Sienna countered, taking a deep breath, “I have no reason to frame you, just as you said,
I’m just a small assistant.”
“If I’ve offended you in any way, please say it directly instead of resorting to dirty tricks that are beneath
us!”
Sienna’s words made Mona’s cheeks flush red, but she didn’t admit anything.
Having decided to deal with Sienna, Mona wouldn’t show mercy.
Sienna must leave Read Law. The firm could only accommodate one of them.
Donald initially wanted to save her face, but Mona’s attitude was so resolute, leaving no room for
maneuver. With that, he didn’t think much about it anymore.
“Mona,” Donald turned to the emotional woman beside him and asked softly, “Did you give Sienna the
materials?”
“I only gave her the documents to handle. I didn’t give her that form!”
Mona denied having anything to do with the form, and Donald didn’t refute her immediately. Instead, he
pointed to the bottom right corner of the form and asked, “You didn’t forget our firm’s accountability
system, did you?”
There was an inconspicuous string of numbers in that corner, and Mona’s expression changed instantly
when she saw it.
Mona had indeed forgotten, as her desire to retaliate against Sienna had clouded her judgment.
Chapter 46 Miren People Make a Tiger
“To prevent employees from shifting blame to one another, each time they print materials, the system
embeds a unique string of numbers, like an ID, representing the individual.”
In other words, it was definitely printed from Mona’s computer, leaving this trace.
Mona’s cold sweat broke out, and she waved her hands in panic to defend herself. “Donald, you know I
would never do anything to harm Read Law. I’ve been here for years, and you know me
best!”
Over the years, Mona had worked diligently without complaints, always striving to do what was best for
Read Law and Donald.
Mona’s loyalty to Read Law was evident, so compared to Sienna, who had been there less than a
month and had a bad reputation, the employees present were more willing to believe Mona.
“Mr. Read, there must be some misunderstanding. How could Mona ever harm Read Law?”
“Yeah, as long as you have the password, you can access her computer. It could have been someone
else. We can’t be sure!”
Mona’s close colleagues defended her, and she took on the posture of a victim, looking down with
pursed lips.
Her intention was to create an impression of collective agreement, as the saying goes ‘the more, the
merrier.’ In situations where it was difficult to establish the truth, having multiple people to corroborate a
story lent it more credibility, making it easier for others to believe.
Even if Donald wanted to be partial, he had to consider everyone’s feelings, not causing turmoil in
Read Law for the sake of Sienna.
“Regarding this matter…’
As Donald was about to speak, Sienna stood up and said, “I didn’t do this, and I’ll prove it eventually.”
“Since Ms. Barton is also innocent, why don’t we work together to find out who the real culprit is?” Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
