"Grandma, why didn't my mom come?"
She was still thinking about what the old lady said last time: she would find a way to rescue her. Although she was extremely afraid of the old lady's majesty, she still mustered up the courage to ask.
Mrs. Hai didn't come here out of boredom, but came to see her specifically. Upon hearing this, Mrs. Hai apologized to the two instructors first, and then promised that she would leave at the end of the stipulated visiting time.
Wait for the two instructors to clear the room for them to chat.
Only then did Old Mrs. Hai sit down and look at her haggard granddaughter through the glass. There was no expression on her tense face, looking like a stern and majestic head of a family.
"She won't come again."
Haitong rushed to the glass: "Why? My mother promised me..."
Old Mrs. Hai had just come over from the villa. There was not much emotion in her sharp eyes, only disappointment in her.
"Haitong, even today, you still don't think you did something wrong?"
Hai Tong pursed her lips behind the glass, wanting to admit her mistake but unwilling to do so. Her face turned pale and blue, and she only said, "...I can apologize to Qiao Nian."
Old Lady Hai shook her head in disappointment. Her eyes looked cold as she looked at her. She said calmly, "They don't need your apology. Your apology is not that valuable."
Haitong subconsciously wanted to refute, but she opened her mouth but didn't have time to speak.
Old Lady Hai's voice sounded calmly again: "The trouble you caused this time cannot be solved by apologizing to anyone. There is irrefutable evidence that you stole Guo Jia's confidential information. Whether you admit it or not, and whether we admit it or not, the surveillance video captured your behavior clearly, and we cannot deny it. Tell me, what did you want to do by stealing those materials?"
"I..." Hai Tong was at a loss, her eyelashes trembling, and she pressed herself against the glass to look at the old lady with rapid breathing, "Grandma, please help me think of a solution. I can't go to jail. Jail will ruin my life!"
Mrs. Hai looked extremely calm, and still looked into her eyes and asked the same question: "Then tell me what you want to do by stealing those materials?"
"I..." Haitong didn't dare to say anything and shrank her neck.
Mrs. Hai is not a soft-hearted person: "I will count to three. If you don't tell me, I will leave immediately. No one will come to see you in the future."
Haitong was so anxious that tears were about to come out: "Grandma..."
Mrs. Hai hardened her heart and said, "1."
"2."
At the same time as she said '3', Haitong blurted out: "I just... saw the USB drive there, and wanted to see what was inside."
"I didn't know there were so many confidential documents in there. When I saw them, I wanted to copy them down and give them to... to Aina."
Haitong started crying after she finished speaking.
"I just can't accept it! Everything was fine before I came back. I was still the most caring descendant of Grandpa Ye, and everyone had to give in to me. But when I came back, everything changed. I don't know where a woman came out of nowhere and not only deceived my brother's feelings, but also wanted to marry into the Ye family. Grandpa Ye no longer paid the most attention to me, and Aunt Ye helped her instead of me..."
She cried very sadly, constantly wiping her tears with her hands and expressing her resentment.
"But why? I should be the most valued young person. I have been outstanding in everything since I was young. I went abroad to study early and promised my family to go to Jiusuo when I came back. She took away the halo that belonged to me! I just don't like her, I look down on her, and I want her to taste the feeling of failure."
Mrs. Hai panted rapidly, and she could only hold on to the marble table in front of the glass of the visiting room with both hands to keep steady. "So you went to steal things?"
