Feel the Way You Feel, My Love Chapter 943
“No, he isn’t. I’ve checked with the Maintenance Department, and they’ve confirmed that he isn’t one of theirs. In fact, he isn’t even from this company. He knocked out one of our staff from the Maintenance Department and took this uniform off him!” Silas replied angrily.
The coldness in Shane’s expression intensified as he asked, “How is that employee’s condition now?”
“He’s fine and has already returned to duty. The elevators are scheduled for maintenance today, and this guy knocked the staff out while he was on his way to service the elevators. He then changed into this uniform and snuck into your office, Mr. Shane,” Silas said while pointing at the man.
The man looked up at them with tears and snot all over his face as he whimpered in fear. “I’m sorry, Mr. Shane! Please spare me! I’m begging you!”
The man leaned forward submissively, only to have Silas kick his head back as he said with a sneer, “That’s it? You were stealing from our CEO’s office! Did you really think a simple apology would suffice?”
The man trembled even more intensely as he stammered, “I-I was just blinded by the money! I—”
Shane cut him off coldly, “Are you one of Sean’s men? Or did he hire you just for this job?”
“I… He hired me just for this job. I’m a professional thief for hire that specializes in stealing corporate documents. I was gaming at home when I got a call from someone asking me to steal an equity transfer agreement from your office. I knew Thompson Group wasn’t some small company that I can easily steal from, but the money offered was just so great that I…”
Had I known that I would get caught like this, I would never have agreed to the job no matter how much I was offered! I can’t believe I let my successful attempts in the past get to my head! I actually thought I would get away with it even though Thompson Group is one of the top fifty companies in the world. Ugh, those smaller companies sure are nothing compared to large ones like these. Right now, I’m completely at their mercy…
The man smiled wryly and regretted his actions greatly at the thought of that.
“You specialize in helping others steal corporate documents?” Shane narrowed his eyes. This is the first time I’ve heard of such a profession!
Silas cleared his throat as he said, “It’s true that such a profession exists, albeit in the shadows. When companies wish to obtain top-secret data or evidence from other companies, they would hire men like him to steal it for them. You can think of it as an underhanded method of acquiring said documents, Mr. Shane.”
Shane sneered. “Heh, this certainly is eye-opening.”
Silas shot the man a cold glare. “No one has ever dared steal from Thompson Group, so it’s normal that you haven’t heard of such things. This guy is just a little bolder than the others, that’s all!”
The man shrank back a little. “I’ve already told you everything, Mr. Shane! Please let me go! I didn’t steal anything! I’ve got an elderly mother and a young child to look after!”
“You have a child, and yet you’re still doing this sort of thing? Do you want your child to live the rest of his life in shame because of you?” Shane asked coldly.
The man lowered his head. “I… It’s not like I wanted to… I’m only doing this to survive!”
“To survive? Heh!” Shane couldn’t be bothered to see if he was lying nor look into his actual identity. He then turned toward Silas and said, “Where’s his phone? Have him call Sean and tell him he got the equity transfer agreement.”
Silas’ eyes lit up instantly. “Are you trying to bait Sean into coming out of hiding, Mr. Shane? Get him to reveal his location or something, perhaps?”
Shane nodded slightly. “Yeah.”
“All right.” Silas then whipped out the man’s phone and held it up to his face as he said, “Unlock it and make the call.”
