My Dear Mr. Nice novel Chapter 54

Chapter 54: The truth will come out

Everyone looked at Josefina.

It was common knowledge that she had always hated Micaela.

Josefina, who was fiddling with the cell phone, hurried to put it in her pocket and stood up, fear in her heart, but she didn't admit it:

-I didn't!

-A moment ago, I saw that you almost wanted to tell Ivanna that the design was half-baked.

-I care more about the interests of the company. You can't accuse me of stealing the design just for that.

As I had suspected Josephine, Anna immediately said:

-But you've messed with Micaela a lot and we all know it!

-I hate her, but I don't go so far as to slander her -Josefina said with conviction-, -What proof do you have?

Everyone was silent, because the best proof was the surveillance, which had been destroyed.

Micaela stood up and approached Kiki:

-I think Josefina didn't do it.

Everyone looked at Micaela with astonishment.

Josefina often bullied Micaela, relying on the fact that she was the leader of the group, and ordered her to serve the tea and print the documents.

Anyone could see how much she hated Micaela.

Micaela continued:

-She is our leader, and she knows well the serious consequences of stealing designs.

Micaela believed she had no need to take the risk.

-She's right, Josefina wouldn't do anything illegal!

One of Josefina's friends also rushed to speak for her.

Kiki said after a pause:

-Each has a key to the office. The design sketch would be stolen, no doubt by someone in the office!

Looking at everyone, before continuing:

-I'll see to it that someone continues the investigation!

And then he turned to Micaela:

-Follow me!

-Micaela, come here for a moment!

Then he entered his office.

Josefina gave him a contemptuous look and said in a low voice:

-Don't think I'm going to appreciate you because you said for me!

Micaela also said indifferently:

-I don't need your gratitude either. One who has done nothing wrong is innocent even if he says nothing to make himself clear. The truth will come out.

Having said that, she went to Kiki's office.

She closed the door and approached the desk.

-Do you think I shouldn't have doubted Josephine in front of everyone? -Kiki put down the pen and asked her.

Micaela nodded.

-That's the effect I want, to make her anxious and reveal herself naturally.

-Why? Why are you so sure she did it?

"She had been bullied a lot, but she still decided to believe in Josephine."

-Because, on Saturday night, I saw her near the office!

Micaela was so surprised.

"The surveillance was damaged on Saturday night and Josefina was over there..."

It was definitely not a coincidence.

-So why didn't you say so?

-Because I suspected she had an accomplice!

Micaela suddenly realized.

"She couldn't have done it so perfectly alone that she destroyed the surveillance early."

They both nodded. Now all they had left to do was wait.

Kiki reached over and patted Micaela's shoulder:

-You surprise me, prototyping the design in such a short time. How did you do it?

-The final look was already in my head when I was sketching it. I only did part of it yesterday so I could work faster today, and I didn't think it helps us.

-How long will the data take approximately?

After a slight moment of reflection, he replied:

-The day after tomorrow should be fine!

-Courage!

-Yes!

***

Micaela returned to her post and set to work.

Opening the design, Micaela noticed that it had clearly been modified.

She had not looked at it carefully before that it was even more detailed.

This had saved her a lot of time.

The only person who could have done this was Carlos?

"What a surprise, he knows how to design too?"

She hurried to get to work. Ana had bought him lunch and she continued to do so after lunch.

The way he went about his work made Ana ashamed of herself.

"Who says only men are more charming when they are serious about their work?"

"Women are more charming, okay?"

"Especially Micaela!"

She was fascinated!

"How come Josefina hates her even though she's so nice?"

As she thought this, Ana looked at Josefina, whose position was the first compartment at the entrance, scanning the whole office.

So Ana got down and pretended to be resting at her desk, but continued to secretly watch her.

Josefina did not realize that someone was watching her, and came out with her cell phone in hand....

She seemed very bewitched.

She was behaving strangely!

Ana sat down next to Micaela and said:

-Come on!

Micaela was puzzled and hurried to click save....

-What's wrong?

Ana peeked her head out and saw Josefina enter the staircase.

She saw him too. It was time for work, what was she doing there?

Normally, everyone went down the elevator instead of the stairs.

Some people went to the stairwells if they wanted to smoke.

Micaela came up with what Kiki said:

Find her accomplice!

She grabbed Ana who was ready to leave.

Ana turned around and saw that Micaela had turned around to grab her phone and then put it on silent.

"How thoughtful!"

She hurried to put the cell phone on silent as well.

Only then did the two of them head toward the staircase as if nothing had happened.

There was a window over the stairwell door. The two made sure there was no noise inside before entering with light steps.

They were listening intently and heard a muffled conversation.

Ana wanted to go upstairs, but Micaela pulled her back.

Micaela led Ana outside and entered the elevator.
