55 Relationship
Keira and Lewis arrived at the Horton Group in his Bentley.
As they got out of the car, Lewis suddenly asked, Will Samuel Morgan arrive on time?
Keira replied, I think so.
Lewis pursed his lips and continued. Actually, I have some information about Samuel Morgan. Ill tell you after we deal with todays matters.
He planned to tell her about Samuel Morgans womanizing behavior.
The agony of elongated pain was worse than a moments suffering.
Keira glanced at him, surprised. Alright.
She got out of the car and walked toward the elevator.
Just as she reached the elevator, she overheard a few colleagues whispering.
Did you hear? Someone was caught stealing ideas

from the Research and Development Department!
Who? Someones really crossing the line! How
audacious!
I heard it was the new intern. They must have some connections in the company to dare do such a thing.
What kind of connections?
Someone pointed upward. I heard its related to him, hence they placed the intern in Jalen Rileys group
That guy is domineering and forceful. The higher-ups have been on their toes for the past month. He wouldnt blatantly protect his intern, right? Isnt he worried about leaving a bad impression by mixing personal affairs with work?
Well, I heard that guy was spoiled by Old Mrs. Horton. When he was a kid in Oceanion, he was like a little tyrant. After so many years, showing bias to an intern wouldnt mean anything to him, right?
The company has its rules and regulations. If he acts recklessly, wont it cause public outrage?
Hes young. He doesnt care about these things

Isnt Jake younger? But look at the people he hired for the company. Dr. South is a leading figure in the new energy industry! Now, look at the intern of that guy. Comparing both sides, its evident that Jake Horton is more reliable
Absolutely, like father like son. His father, Mr. Horton Senior, was always strict with himself and lenient with others. Speaking of which, Mr. Horton Senior worked his way up diligently from the grassroots
Why didnt he get that position? Why was it taken by
that man?
Keira hadnt planned to pay these people any attention. After all, she found herself in an awkward predicament and realized that people were bound to talk about her behind her back.
But she hadnt expected that the conversation would shift toward Lewis Horton.
She narrowed her eyes.
Having been working since middle school, she wasnt

really an office rookie, so, she immediately inferred
that someone was fueling the fire behind the scenes and planned to drag Lewis into the mud!
She recognized the person who had initiated the topic.
It was Arian Oneil, a researcher from Group Two and a henchman of Jake Horton.
Keira remembered the news Samuel Morgan had helped her look up.
The first branch of the Horton family wanted to seize power back.
She could sense the tension between Lewis and the first branch of the family during her last visit there.
Jake wanted to use this issue to stir up public opinion. Even if it couldnt inflict any real harm on Lewis, it could still undermine his reputation in the company.
Keira scoffed.
She stepped forward and spoke casually, Its fine if you gossip about me, but shouldnt you check for any surveillance cameras around before spreading rumors
about the boss?

As soon as she said this, the group of people immediately raised their heads to check their surroundings.
Seeing no surveillance cameras, they breathed a sigh of relief and then realized they had been played.

Everyone turned toward Keira. Who are you?
Before Keira could say anything, Arian said, Let me introduce her to you. Shes the new intern from the research and development department.
Arian smirked and said, Miss Olsen must be close to Mr. Horton. The crime of stealing ideas is a significant one, and now that all evidence is complete, she still has the nerve to show up at work as if nothing happened
With that said, everyone turned their gaze toward Keira, their brows furrowing
All of them were office workers. If their hard work was stolen one day, they would undoubtedly be outraged.
However, Keira wasnt intimidated by these glances but rather asked, somewhat puzzled, Im close to Mr.

Horton?
Arian immediately said, Youre not going to deny it, are you? It was Mr. Davis who personally escorted you to the RD department. Our team members all saw it.
As he said this, he sighed, pretending to offer consolation. Even if Mr. Horton is backing you, you shouldnt have stolen Dr. Souths concepts. Do you know the significance of Dr. South to the RD department? Our Vice President Jake Horton invited him over, spending great efforts and resources to make a huge contribution to the RD department. If this incident makes Dr. South leave, even Mr. Horton
couldnt bear the wrath of the entire RD department,
could he?
Everyone around nodded instantly.
But Keira suddenly laughed, You got it wrong. Im just an acquaintance of Mr. Horton. He has always kept a low profile and didnt make a fuss about hiring me for the company
Arian was startled, What did I get wrong?

Just then, the elevator arrived, and the group of people
walked in.
They didnt notice that Lewis and Tom were approaching from a distance and had heard their
conversation.
While Lewis didnt show any change in expression, Toms face immediately dropped!
As expected, someone was using Keiras situation to scheme against his boss!
But at this point, Keira didnt try to avoid suspicion. Instead, she brought the attention back toward his
boss!
It was just too outrageous!
Tom couldnt help but say angrily, Boss, did you hear? Shes openly claiming that shes connected to you! Everybody knows about her relationship with you now. What good would this do for her? Shes so stupid!
After saying this, he said, Boss, I think you really shouldnt get involved with her matter. Everybody

knows about your relationship with her now. If you still choose to protect her, in everybodys eyes, youll
become a despotic ruler who disregards justice!
Lewis narrowed his eyes.
His stern expression didnt change. He looked ahead and said lightly, Only the weak are swayed by
opinions.
Leaving these words behind, he straightened his clothes and strode into the exclusive elevator for
CEOS.
Tom followed him into the elevator, only to hear him speak with authority, Go to the Administrative Department.
Tom shouldve known that Lewiss decision wouldnt
change!
Tom pressed the button reluctantly and sighed to
himself.
Its no wonder that everyone made those comparisons.

The RD department was the core of the company, and many people kept an eye on it.
In the past month, the RD department had taken in two people.
One was Dr. South, Jakes connection.
The other was Keira, the bosss associate.
The two were worlds apart.
Tom inhaled deeply!
If Dr. South were Lewiss connection, then Lewis would surely win this battle in a splendid way!!
Ding!
The elevator arrived.
The curtain was officially raised on this case of stolen
plans!
