Chapter 497

After Raymond had left, Leanna continued to study the documents in front of her. Her assumption was accurate that these high-ranking executives were valuable contributors who were unfairly made to take the fall for the company. To conceal the truth, he only provided her with a short list of the names and titles of the company’s executives, along with brief descriptions of the respective departments and the projects over which they oversaw.

In addition, she requested Jonathan to look into it for her, and the evaluation for those laid off was uniformly positive. After some time had passed, she checked the time on her phone and discovered it was already late. Moreover, she had difficulty tracking these individuals because no contact information was on the list. Soon, something came to mind, and she texted Aidan that she would return later. Then, she sent the message and left without waiting for Aidan to respond.

Suddenly, Zoe asked, “Nana, are you going home? Where are you going?”

Leanna put down the phone. “I’m looking for Maya, but she hasn’t answered her phone. Do you know where I can find her?”

Zoe asked, “Why are you looking for her?”

“I recall that her husband was a high-level executive at the Crossley Group and was one of the select few made to take the fall after the incident.”

Zoe thought for a while and replied, “I’m not sure; she was the most active in the class group before; she always showed off her husband’s gifts daily. Since something happened to her husband, we haven’t heard from her for a long time.”

After a pause, Zoe added, “Wait a minute. I’ll ask the class monitor. I heard Maya tried to borrow money from her, so maybe she knows.”

Leanna nodded. “Okay.”

After some time had passed, Zoe received a response to her message. In the aftermath of the incident, Maya’s family invested heavily in their connections and only managed to resolve the situation. However, they had to sell the family home and car and take out a large loan. As a result of taking the fall for Crossley Group, Maya’s husband’s reputation in the industry was also ruined. Since he still had children, he could only find a security guard job in a hotel because no company would risk hiring him. Maya, who had been a housewife for several years, was also coerced into going to work, and she is now employed as a salesperson at a luxury store.

Zoe forwarded the address to Leanna after obtaining it. “Are you leaving right now? Do you want me to accompany you?”

Leanna smiled. “I’m not going to fight them, so I can just go by myself.” As she spoke, she continued, “Weren’t you going to watch a movie? Why haven’t you gone yet?”
