Chapter 1446 Got Caught Up

Faye had crept her way to Charles' office.

She tried her best to remain undiscovered.

There wasn't much to look at in Charles' office, but the problem was that Paul and Charles were the only ones authorized to go inside.

Faye ran towards Charles' desk and clicked his computer mouse once.

Charles' computer was password-encrypted. Paul wasn't even allowed access to it.

But Faye's desire for snooping was stronger. She couldn't stop herself from touching the mouse, which, to her demise, caused a loud alarm to ring. Paul had immediately heard it and wasted no time to rush towards Charles' office.

He burst through the door with wide eyes and found Faye standing behind the desk.

Faye was frozen still by her panic.

"Miss Hong! What are you doing here?"

Paul asked as he furrowed his eyebrows.

"Oh... Uh... I-I... I came here to wait for Mr. Mu," Faye explained hurriedly.

"Why would you touch someone else's computer especially if he isn't in the office?" Paul probed with a quizzical look.

Paul was so skeptical about this woman's intentions. He was beginning to lose his trust. Why would Faye think that

ust mopped the floors today. I slipped since it's still a little too slippery. I hope I didn't scare you," Paul explained as he pulled himself up.

After he dusted himself off, he surveyed the rest of Charles' desk just to be sure that she didn't take anything.

Faye quickly noticed this and flushed deep red in both anger and embarrassment.

'What, does he think I'm stealing something from Charles?' Faye asked herself angrily.

She quickly stepped away and yelled at Paul accusingly, "As the Lady of the Hong Clan, you think I would find the time or effort to steal things in here? You think I can't afford any of this? Quit it. I was only looking for Charles. But since he's not here, then I'll take my damn leave!" Faye said as walked past Paul.
