“Mommy, who is this?” Connor pointed to the woman on the screen and asked. His face was solemn.
Slightly upset, Natalie shut her eyes for a brief moment. She told her son in a disappointed tone, “She’s my colleague and also someone I respect. Normally, she is quite nice to me. I can’t believe that she would do something like this!”
“Are her drawings any good?” Connor asked curiously.
Natalie didn’t know why he would ask that but replied anyway. “To be honest, her drawings are average. Otherwise, she would have been a manager at the design department already.”
“Well, I know why she wants to steal your drawings then. She must be jealous of you. After all, you are so amazing! Only losers like her would do something like this.” Connor tipped his head to a side and speculated.
Natalie chuckled and was about to respond when her phone suddenly rang. It was a call from the private investigator’s office. “Ms. Natalie, we have gotten the results for the fingerprint swab. Unfortunately, we couldn’t find any other fingerprints apart from yours on the laptop and the mouse.”
“Alright. Thank you.” Natalie’s gaze darted back to the computer screen.
She noticed that the culprit wore gloves when the deed was done.
While there were no fingerprints, the original security footage was sufficient to show that the person was guilty.
She hung up, handed over a USB drive to Connor, and asked him to copy the footage into the drive.
