Flirting Mistake: I Married My Ex's Billionaire Uncle Overnight
Chapter 134: Caught Stealing
CHAPTER 134: CHAPTER 134: CAUGHT STEALING
Phoebe Linden didn’t dare to act on her own this time. She looked for Lillian Tupper and asked her to join her to meet President Lancaster at Zenith.
Lillian Tupper was furious when she found out that Phoebe Linden had sneaked into Zenith on her own and only came to her after messing things up, sarcastically mocking her.
"Phoebe Linden, you damned woman! How dare you go to see President Lancaster behind my back!"
"Oh, Lillian, I didn’t mean to hide it from you." Knowing she was in the wrong, Phoebe Linden quickly appeased her, "I’m here to find you so we can go together now, aren’t I? Don’t be mad. Once we handle this well, we can return to Zenith."
"Yeah, right! If you hadn’t screwed up, would you have thought of me? Did you actually think you could secretly meet President Lancaster on your own?" Lillian Tupper retorted coldly.
She knew Phoebe Linden’s nature well; if there was anything good, she wouldn’t think of her.
In the end, Phoebe Linden used sweet talk and coaxed Lillian Tupper for a while, painfully giving up a big designer bag she had, to finally calm Lillian’s anger.
The two carefully planned and decided to go in the evening when everyone was leaving work.
At that time, there would be more people coming and going at Zenith, and no one would notice them, making it harder to get caught.
They patiently waited for the time, finally until the end of the workday.
The comings and goings at the Zenith Building increased, with many people going in and out of the entrance. They seized the opportunity to slip into Zenith when there were many people around.
The two carefully avoided people and entered the elevator.
As the elevator went higher and higher, thinking they would soon see the extraordinary President Lancaster, they became excited.
Ding, the elevator doors opened.
The two cautiously glanced around, not expecting the top floor to be deserted with no sign of anyone, not even Felix Ford and the assistants were there.
What’s going on?
Could they have already left?
Just as they stepped out of the elevator and were about to walk inside, suddenly many tall men in security uniforms appeared from all directions, surrounding them!
"Don’t move!"
Felix Ford walked out from the back, expressionless, and said, "Daring to steal from the chairman’s office, take them to the police station immediately!"
Phoebe Linden and Lillian Tupper were about to argue, but their mouths were covered.
They were taken downstairs by the security.
Such a large commotion quickly attracted a lot of onlookers, especially now at the end of the workday, with constant foot traffic at Zenith’s entrance.
Many people gathered around them, pointing and talking.
Soon someone from security mentioned what had happened.
"I remember these two from the planning department, named Lillian Tupper and Phoebe Linden, right?"
"Tsk, they were unreasonably fired, I was curious why, didn’t expect it was for stealing."
"So, it was them? No wonder my lipstick kept mysteriously disappearing."
"I also lost a bracelet."
"The company should have forgave them last time, yet they dared to sneak into Zenith to steal again, really bold!"
"I remember these two also attended Sierra Sinclair’s engagement party, always wandering around, maybe they took the chance to steal there too?"
Phoebe Linden and Lillian Tupper heard this and were desperate to explain.
They didn’t steal anything!
But someone held their mouths shut, so they could only make helpless ’mmm mmm’ sounds, anxiously glaring around.
The two were quickly taken away and locked up, their phones forcibly confiscated as well.
Felix Ford, following Nina Sinclair’s instructions, used their phones to send a message to Sierra Sinclair.
The message read: "The plan has succeeded, President Lancaster will hold a press conference at Zenith tomorrow to announce he is unmarried."
