A Beautiful Misunderstanding

Chapter 351 Waiting For A Rabbit Behind The Tree

Essie cast a cold glance at him. The diamonds were either swapped in the lab or on the way to the vault. Therefore, the security guards, the vault keeper and the inspection department were all involved in this case.

The only person who could be suspected was director Liu of the marketing department. She purchased the diamond from the market department in a normal way. If director Liu knew that it was a fake diamond and sold it to the CEO, he must be insane or detestable.

"We had checked everything in the lab before the diamonds were conveyed into the warehouse. How could it be fake?" Asked Grin, confused.

"Check the diamonds first." Essie opened the vault and asked the inspector to take out the sealed diamonds for inspection. At the same time, she asked the security department to show the monitoring video of the whole process of checking the color diamond and checking it into the storage room. At the same time, Malcolm had asked the branch office in South Africa to send all the test data to them.

The inspection department worked overtime that night. It took three days to finally check all the diamonds in the treasure house. There was no problem with the previous diamonds in the stock, but the new arrival of those precious diamonds were all fake.

"Is this the thing you checked and accepted?" Obviously, Essie was in a domineering state.

Grin of the inspection department wiped the sweat on his forehead and said, "we've thoroughly checked and tested these diamonds in the laboratory. I'm sure there's nothing wrong with these diamonds. They must have been replaced on the way to the vault."

"Our ten security guards are responsible for escort. The inspection lab and the gold house are in the same building. We just need to go up and down the elevator, so we cannot be unaware it. The stealer

must hide in the gold house and swapped them." Fultz the director of security department immediately explained.

Essie sneered, "Fultz, have you watched too many movies? The vault of Millennium Group is equipped with the most advanced security system in the world. Even a fly and a mosquito can't be sent out of it. If they are not amazing thieves, they will be cut eight pieces by lasers! "

Fultz shivered and his forehead was in cold sweat. As the head of the security department, he was responsible for this accident.

She glanced at him and turned to Grin, "who was in charge of testing diamonds in the lab?"

"They are ten senior appraisal masters of the first identification group." Said Grin.

"500 fake diamonds. Even ten people can't pick them out, can they?" After saying that, Essie took a glance at everybody in a cold manner.

"These are diamonds which are all over 1 carat. We can't take them lightly. We have checked each of them carefully. If there is any problem, we, of course, can find out." Said an expert.

Others echoed.

Hearing that, Essie was silent. The employees who were employed by the research department of the Millennium Group was senior experts in jewelry field. It is impossible to make the five hundred fake diamonds successfully pass the test of the laboratory, unless someone bought off all of them. In this case, the possibility was very small, but it was most likely that it had been changed after being sealed.

"The police officer is here. You'd better cooperate with the police in investigating the case, or you will be responsible for the loss of our company." Then she went out.

Her intuition told her that this was not an ordinary theft case. The target of this case was very likely to be her. That one couldn't play tricks in Hengyuan, so he or she put black hands into the Millennium Group. These diamonds were specially designed for the upper class of the society. If they were discovered to have imitations, which would seriously affect the reputation of the Millennium Group, and then she, as the CEO, would definitely be unable to escape her own responsibility.

"Those people didn't expect that I would buy the diamond. And I even bought the fake one." She sneered.

"Does it mean that you fool have a good lucky?" Zac stroked her head, affectionately like a pet.

Essie also thought so. He treated her as a pet now, liked her docile expression, and liked her submission to his control, which made him could do anything for her. But it didn't matter. They each took what they needed, and she could bear a humiliation.

She sat on the sofa with her arms crossed in front of her chest, "what should I do next?"

"Wait." Zac said slowly.

"Wait?" "Do you want me to wait for death?"

"I don't let you sit still and wait for death. I tell you to wait for a rabbit behind the tree." The wine glass swayed in Zac's hand and the liquid in it rippled slightly, as bright as blood. "Now the police are urgently looking for the whereabouts of these diamonds. All personnel of Millennium Group are under investigation, and soon there will be a scapegoat."

"With a scapegoat, can we find the boss?" Said Essie, curling her lips.

"Not sure, but it can follow the clues and remove the bad insects around the whole company." Zac took a sip of the wine. His perfect lips looked particularly charming and mysterious with the wine print.

Essie grabbed the glass from Zac's hand, raised her head and drank up the rest of wine in it. "Okay, wait!" said Essie.

A day later, the Secretary of the CEO's office called and reported that Godin the employee of the Vault Keeping Department wanted to see her, saying that he had to report to her about the diamonds.

Essie let him in.

Godin stood in front of the desk, with a very complicated expression, a little hesitation and a little panic.

"Take a seat, Godin. Don't be nervous." Essie stood up from the chair, walked to the tea table and poured him a cup of tea.

He didn't take it. He knelt in front of her and explained, "Boss, I stole those diamonds. I was so stupid to steal them because of my greed." Then he took out a big cloth bag from his jacket and continued, "these diamonds are all inside. I put five hundred of them in this bag. They are all here."

Essie took the bag over, opened it and saw some diamonds inside. She calmly helped Godin up and said, "have a seat and take a sip of tea. Why did you steal these diamonds?"

"Five years ago, my wife had a stroke in the brain and got paralyzed at home. To treat her, I used up all my savings. I didn't expect that my son suffered from uremia and needed to have an kidney transplant operation. The total medical expense was over two million. I don't have so much money. We only have one son, and he is only twenty-five. How can we live if he dies? So, when I heard from Grin that the five hundred diamonds would be put into the vault, I came up with an idea. I had asked someone to buy five hundred fake diamonds in advance. Then, the diamonds could be swapped to the original one when the diamonds are stored into the vault. " Godin said tremblingly.

Essie picked up the teacup on the table and took a slow sip. "Did you do that in or outside the vault?"

"In... Inside the vault. I swapped them and run away when Grin and Mr. Wang opened the safe to get the diamond. " Godin said.

"You are just an ordinary administrator, and you are not qualified to enter. Who allowed you to?" Essie asked.

"I told Grin that I'm going to retire and I haven't seen the vault yet. Could I go in and have a look? He let me in." Godin's hands shivered slightly as if he was very nervous. Essie noticed it and didn't show any expression on her face. "Since you have stolen the diamonds out, why do you want to return them back?" she asked.

"I didn't expect you to find it so soon. The police are focusing on this case, so I can't sell the diamonds. What's more, if I am sent to prison, no one will take care of my wife and son. So after much thought, I decided to give the diamonds back to you and plead for leniency."

Hearing that, a light flashed across Essie's dark eyes. She asked, "Godin, how many years have you worked in the department?"

"Fifteen years," Said Godin.

"Fifteen years. You are an old employee." Essie said in a low voice, "you should know that the Xu Family Foundation every year holds one hundred million dollars to help people who are in need of help in the society for the charity business. You should go to the foundation. They will help you. "

"I have been there, but they said that I was not qualified to be donated." Godin said dejectedly.

"Who said that?" Essie frowned.

"It's a staff whose surname is Wang." Godin said.

Essie turned to look at Godin and said coldly, "Godin, since you have surrendered to me and returned the diamonds, the group will offer you a lenient punishment."

In the evening, Millennium Group issued an announcement of dismissal and handed Godin over to the police.

In the mansion, Essie asked Holy to come here. "Can your Hacker Union access the bank system?"

"Of course. We can even hack into the Pentagon." Holy raised his eyebrows dismissively.

"Your uncle Martin is in the army base! Do you dare to go in?" A playful smile appeared on Essie's face. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

"I'm just kidding. Don't take it seriously. My little sister, you're becoming less and less humorous." Holy stuck his tongue out and thought to himself, 'that is my uncle's place. How could I dare to hack?'

"Holy, I'm going to give you two tasks today." Essie said. She took out two files and added, "here's the bank account information of the relevant people of Millennium Group. Help me check if there is a huge amount of money of unknown origin in someone's bank account recently." After a pause, she added, "the other is the account of the Xu's foundation. You can check the amount of the fund that the foundation has donated in the past few years."

"Don't worry. I'll help you fix it in one night." Holy said confidently, patting his chest.

Essie smiled and then called Malcolm to ask him to go to the hospital to visit Godin's son.

After the case of diamond theft was uncovered, Millennium Group restored to its previous calm state. The originally worried people stealthily breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the matter had passed, but they did not know that the sky was usually calm before the storm.

Three days later, Essie held a board meeting about Millennium Group and the Xu's foundation. However, there was one important person who was not present. He was the deputy CEO of Millennium Group and the third brother of Elizabeth.

"Pitkin said he had an appointment with an important client. He's not going to attend the meeting." His secretary said.

The girl took a glance at Fultz and said, "Fultz, please take two security guards with you and escort Mr. Pitkin here. By the way, tell him to wait until the meeting is over, even if he had an appointment with Obama."
