Chapter 369 - 458: I’ve Seen Disgusting, But Nothing as Disgusting as You
’If an apology was all it took after doing something wrong, what would be the point of the police?’
The thought filled Chloe Sinclair with contempt.
But when Aunt Warren, who was standing to the side, heard Chloe Sinclair’s words, she realized there was no hope for a turnaround and immediately collapsed to her knees on the floor.
She then shot back up in a fury, pointing at Tiana Warren as she hit and berated her. "How could you do this?! Do you think you’ve done right by the job Mr. Sinclair gave you? Do you think you’ve done right by your parents? I’m asking you, who have you done right by?!!"
"Your father has leukemia! To pay for your education, he chose to give up his own treatment, and now he’s in agony every single day! Your mother works three jobs all by herself! Mr. Sinclair knew your situation was pitiable and had the butler give you the easiest job here, but what did you do?"
"Tiana Warren, you’re nothing but an ungrateful wretch!"
But at the end of the day, Tiana was her own niece. As angry as she was, the thought of the damages Tiana would have to pay made her heart soften.
"Miss Sinclair, Tiana just wanted to earn some extra money. She wasn’t thinking straight and made a mistake. Whatever the financial loss is, we’ll pay for it!"
Hearing this, Chloe Sinclair didn’t know what to feel.
Tiana Warren had stolen the manuscript and deleted the security footage, all for money.
But Chloe Sinclair had no respect for someone who would cross a moral line, no matter how desperate they were for money.
Taking a deep breath, Chloe Sinclair, though still angry, softened her voice as she looked at Aunt Warren.
"Aunt Warren, Tiana has already given my manuscript to that research institute. Neither she nor the head of that institute will escape legal consequences."
Chloe Sinclair paused before continuing, "As for the damages, they’re beyond what money can measure now."
’If I hadn’t noticed the manuscript was missing, or if I hadn’t installed a camera in my room, there would have been no evidence. I would have had no choice but to take the loss.’
Tiana Warren panicked at her words.
"Miss Sinclair, I’m begging you, please let me off the hook." Tiana Warren’s words came out in a jumble. Knowing Chloe Sinclair was a woman of her word, she tried to play the sympathy card. "My father has leukemia, and I just wanted to earn some money... I wasn’t in my right mind. I’ll give the money back! I’ll get the research institute to return the manuscript to you."
But Chloe Sinclair just shook her head and asked, "Do you really think they’d give it back to you?"
At Chloe Sinclair’s words, Tiana Warren’s heart filled with despair.
Of course, she knew it was impossible.
Chloe Sinclair’s words had cast her into the depths of hell.
Tiana Warren collapsed to the floor, her eyes vacant.
Chloe Sinclair found the sight irritating. "I’ll give you one chance. Go to the police and turn yourself in tomorrow. I’ll contact my lawyer to arrange for the most lenient sentence possible."
Then Chloe added, "But you need to remember this: not everything is worthy of forgiveness. And I’m sorry, but for what you’ve done, I will pursue legal action no matter who pleads on your behalf."
Chloe Sinclair felt a small sense of relief that the research institute was domestic. Otherwise, there would have been no room for recourse at all.
With that, the matter was settled for the time being.
Mr. Sinclair had someone take Tiana Warren away, with Aunt Warren keeping watch over her.
「That night」
Chloe Sinclair stayed up to call Jasper Shaw, asking him to draft a lawyer’s letter. She then went on Weibo, tagged Whitespire Tech, and declared war.
TheInvincibleChloeSinclair: @Whitespire Tech, I’ve seen some disgusting things in my time, but you take the cake. [Vomit]
She also attached a picture of the lawyer’s letter.
Chloe Sinclair had a lot of followers, but since it was already three in the morning, most people were asleep, so the post didn’t immediately cause a widespread discussion.
It wasn’t until the next morning that Chloe Sinclair’s lawyer’s letter shot to the top of the trending topics.
