A Beautiful Misunderstanding

On Thursday, Brightness held a general shareholder's meeting and invited many news media at home and abroad.

Rose, the spokesperson of Brightness, took out the patent certificate of C technology and relevant parts. Without its authorization, no other company or person was allowed to use the same technology within five years.

She also told the shareholders that the technology Seine used in the bid for the equipment was stolen from Brightness. At present, they had conclusive evidence and would sue Seine at any time.

Hearing this, the crowd burst into an uproar, like a time bomb, starting the timer.

What came next was that the stock price of Brightness soared and that of Seine company plummeted on the contrary.

What a play Essie was playing. Smart people could see it.

This was a trap.

Under the influence of the European debt crisis, the profit of Seine kept falling. Zac had made a bold decision for Essie to acquire the company, which was the biggest threat to the Brightness.

The senior executives of Seine decided to fight back. They wanted to survive in a desperate situation and turn the loss into profit by cooperating with Baker. At the same time, they gave a heavy blow to Brightness. However, they didn't expect that they missed a step and fell into the cliff.

Now, it would face the double huge compensation from Brightness and Baker. It was like a ball with only a big hole and could no longer be bulging. There were only two ways for Seine to get rid of the crisis. One was to declare bankruptcy, the other was to surrender to Brightness and accept to be acquired.

The shareholders of Seine were unwilling to choose the former, not to mention that Essie had to whip them behind to speed up their pace.

Now, there was another thing that needed to be solved by Essie. The thing was to find the chief culprit who leaked the technical secret.

In fact, from the moment when Finney planted a virus in the computer and stole the technical information, Essie had found it. She pretended to know nothing and let Finney finish her work. She was going to catch the big fish in one net.

When she found Finney, she burst into tears. "I'm sorry, Essie. I didn't mean to do that, but I have no choice. If I don't do as that person said, I'll be in jail."

Startled, Essie asked, "Finney, tell me what happened."

Finney sniffed and sobbed, "I met a friend in the fitness club. She is a famous painter and has the same interests as me. We have a good talk. One day, she invited me to her house for fun. I went there without thinking. I didn't expect that she was a lesbian and confessed her love to me. I was frightened and wanted to leave, but she grabbed me. We had a quarrel on the stairs. I pushed her down by accident. She died. I wanted to pretend that she fell off the building by accident, but I didn't expect that someone took the video of that day and sent it to me. He threatened me that if I didn't do as he said, he would hand the evidence to the police and put me in jail. "

next day, when the first ray of morning sunlight fell from the clouds, Zac and Essie drove Finney to a small village in the suburb of Dragon City.
