The Princess and the Pauper

Chapter 97

“So, Ms. Bennett, you’ve already checked my attendance record. You should know I’ve been

working my butt off all year round, never been late nor left early! I’m always the first one in and the

last one out every day! My hard work is all reflected in that record! However, you fired me for no good

reason! You better believe I’ll raise hell about this, make a complaint to headquarters, and make

things hard for you here!” Linda said.

People outside the office were flabbergasted. Director Linda sure had a big mouth, daring to talk to

Ms. Bennett like that. She was just bullying Ms. Bennett cause she was young!

They wonder if Ms. Bennett got scared.

Arabella looked at her casually, and slowly said, “Do you really believe what you just said?”

“You!” Linda immediately felt pissed, “What do you mean by that!”

“Why not ask those people outside, how many days were you actually at the company this past year?”

“What, Ms. Bennett, are you trying to gang up with them to set me up?” Linda sneered, “I’ll report

everything that happened today to the head office. I’ll let you know what it costs to fire people

randomly! You want me out? Ha, you’d better think about how to keep your own job!”

Just as Linda was about to leave after throwing out those harsh words, Arabella’s voice emerged, “Hold

on.”

Arabella looked at her back with interest, like a high and mighty queen, “This matter indeed needs to

be reported to the head office. Otherwise, they wouldn’t know how much resources you, the termite,

have wasted in the company for the past year.”

“You, what do you mean?” Linda turned back, glaring at her angrily, “Don’t make things up!”

“I checked the attendance system and found records that had been altered.” Arabella said.

Arabella turned the computer screen towards her, tapping a few keys with her slender fingers.

“You’re the head of HR, so you have the right to log into the attendance system to make alterations.

Even though you tried to erase the alteration records, they can be restored quickly with special

formulas and a series of program codes.” Arabella said.

Arabella restored the attendance record for the whole year, smiling, “Here’s your real attendance. Out

of 365 days, you only worked for 78 days.” Everyone outside was shocked! Although they had noticed

Linda missing work many times, they didn’t expect her attendance to be so low! Only 78 days! “You’ve

taken a whole year’s salary and perfect attendance rewards, plus year–end bonuses, adding up to over

half a million. This could constitute a criminal offense.” Arabella said.

“You’re slandering me.” Linda went pale, couldn’t believe this girl could restore her actual attendance!

But regardless, that was all in the past. As long as she firmly denied it, what could the company do?

Could this girl’s restored attendance record prove anything? She was good at coding, maybe she

manipulated the attendance record herself! Her aim was just to smear us old staff.

“Oh, by the way, I’ve extracted all the surveillance videos related to you over the past year. The

number of days you showed up at the company is exactly 78 days. Whether you’re the one slandering

us, the police will figure it out when we get to the police station.” Arabella said.

“You, what are you trying to do,” Linda said.

“Of course, turn these pieces of evidence over to the police. Arguing about right and wrong here is

pointless, the police will sort it out soon enough.” Arabella said.

“You!” Linda yelled.
