Chapter 261 Clothes on the Sofa (1/2)
Soon, the thick door was opened from inside, but the one who opened it was not Jasper, but Henry.
She looked through Henry and saw a lot of bodyguards gathering inside, a woman in thin clothes kneeling on the carpet shivering. Jasper was seated behind his desk with a grim look, which made people shiver from the bottom of her heart.
Then Henry pushed her out and closed the door of the study room.
”What are you doing in the study at this late hour?”
She looked at the direction of the study. ”I want to discuss with Mr. Jasper.”
Henry waved his hand again and said, ”no matter what the thing is, you'd better take it back today. Don't you see Mr. Jasper's face? It's very cloudy. If it wasn't for something serious, don't get closer. It's not fun if Mr. Jasper vents his anger on you.”
The scene that a woman kneeling on the carpet and so many bodyguards in the study came into Ashley's mind. It was very similar to the scene that she had met Jasper in the first place.
”What on earth happened? I feel a little familiar with that woman's back.”
Henry lowered his voice, ”she's Mr. Jasper's secretary.”
Was it her?! The secretary who was always sitting at the door of Jasper's office receiving visitors!
”What did she do?”
”Yes, I just heard about that some of the company documents had been leaked occasionally in the past. But no one paid much attention to it. But today, a strategic file was copied from Mr. Jasper's office. Till then, we found out that this secretary was a spy sent by the rival company.”
”Spy!” Ashley covered her mouth in surprise. It was out of her expectation that a person whom she was used to getting along with in usual times was a spy!
Henry nodded solemnly. ”It's not clear if that document has been sent out, and we're still questioning her. So you'd better behave yourself in the near future. Don't try to appear in front of Mr. Jasper. Got it?”
Ashley's heart beat fast. The competition in the business field was fierce and enigmatic. Now what was shown in front of her was just the tip of the iceberg.
The villa door was opened again. Two bodyguards came in, and a young man dressed fastidiously in the middle. The three of them were hastily coming in.
Seeing the person's face full of joy, Henry greeted downstairs, ”you're finally here. Mr. Jasper is waiting inside.”
Urged by two bodyguards, the young man, who carried a small suitcase and looked a little embarrassed, said, ”Okay, I know. I'm already fast enough.”
After seeing that man, Henry no longer cared about Ashley. As soon as the young man went upstairs, Henry immediately led him into the study. With a dull sound, the door closed and the whole villa returned to quiet.
