Finn said, “Our company has always been involved in charity and public welfare activities. What happened to your family took place so close to us; it wouldn’t make sense for us to help people far away but not come to visit you.”
Easton looked at Finn with shining eyes. Such a kind entrepreneur was rare.
“How are you and your family feeling now, Mr. Thompson? Are there any critical injuries?” Finn asked.
“My injuries are serious, but the doctor said there’s no risk to my life. I’ll just need to be bedridden for one or two months and avoid strenuous activity for the next six months,” Easton said frankly.
“Oh, in that case, it might be a bit difficult for you in the coming months. I can give you 300 thousand dollars to help you get through the next six months.”
Easton’s eyes widened. “Macroft Group has given us compensation, which is enough to support us for a while. We can’t let you spend additional money, Mr. Montgomery.”
“Don’t worry, it’s about helping those
community. I hope you will not refus need. Now that the company is doing well, we want to contribute back to the
Easton asked, “What is it?”
Mr. Thompson. But there’s something I’ve been thinking about.”
“Is it possible that tonight’s incident was actually orchestrated by Macroft Group? There was a problem with their technology, so they let Jose take the blame, claiming he was a traitor. That way, Macroft Group could absolve themselves.”
Finn chuckled. “Of course, this is just my speculation. It takes all sorts to make a world. It’s just that the three of you almost lost your lives because of this, which is frightening to think about.”
With that said, Finn told them to rest well and left the ward without disturbing them further.
As soon as Finn left, the news broke online.
When one clicked on the hashtag, “Macroft Group orchestrated the accident“, it would show what Finn said in the ward.
He said that there was no traitor in Macroft Group at all, and the so–called traitor was just chosen by Patrick to take the blame.
At the same time, the news of Finn’s late–night visit to the victim’s family also came out.
Patrick was scolded, while Finn was praised.
[These two pieces of news are really ironic when put together. One disregarded human life for money, while the other visited someone who is not related late at night and donated money for charity.].
[Although Finn’s premarital infidelity is unforgivable, he did a really good job in this matter. I vote for Finn.]
[Finn has always been a gentle, gentlemanly, and charitable person.]
[Sisters, Finn is also handsome. I drool over his looks.]
[I wonder if Juliette will regret her choice.]
[But then again, if all men were as handsome and rich as Finn, I could understand him being hit on by women.]

Chapter 122
The wait outside the ICU door was agonizing.
Beau couldn’t help but start scrolling through his phone.
Juliette, on the other hand, sat quietly on the bench like a motionless sculpture until Beau flipped out, cursing under his breath.
Juliette looked up at him, and he held his phone out to her. Juliette immediately saw the news online.
Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.
Beau said, “What is Finn doing showing up at a time like this? He must be deliberately smearing Patrick online.
“Get me a computer,” Juliette said.
“Huh? What do you need a computer for at a time like this?”
Juliette asked, “Can you get one?”
“Yes, definitely. I’ll get you one right now.” Beau immediately made a phone call to have a computer sent over.
“How could you be so indifferent to the news online? Patrick risked his life for this, and now Finn is trying to discredit him.” Beau was furious.
I wish I could take a few people with me to the Montgomery family’s residence and cut off Finn’s head,” Beau said. “Since you can’t do that, what’s the use of saying it?” Juliette said indifferently, taking the computer from Beau.
She opened the laptop and began to type on the keyboard with her slender fingers.
Beau didn’t notice what she was doing.
“He’d better pray that Patrick is not in danger, otherwise, I’ll really do what I said.”
After Beau finished his angry rant, he realized that Juliette hadn’t responded to him for a while.
There was still no news from the ICU. Beau couldn’t sit still any longer. He glanced at Juliette and was stunned.
The tightly packed lines of code were completely incomprehensible like an alien language.
“What are you doing? Coding? Who are you coding for? Who do you need to code for? No, at a time like this, how could you still be in the mood to-”
*With a soft click, Juliette stopped typing.
“You… Whose computer did you hack into?” Beau swallowed hard.
If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn’t have believed that Juliette had this ability.
He thought, ‘Isn’t she a perfumer? Why–why can she do what a hacker does?‘
“I hacked Finn’s computer, but there’s nothing on it. His assistant’s computer, on the other hand, has a lot of stuff.”

Beau looked over but didn’t see any important files on Landon’s computer until Juliette went into the recycle bin and restored everything that had been shredded and deleted with one click.
Beau was speechless.
The case was solved. The person who bribed Jose was Landon.
The files contained specific details about the contact between Landon and Jose.
All kinds of transfer records could be obtained. They were shredded and deleted, but now they had all been recovered.
Everyone knew that Landon was Finn’s subordinate. Landon’s actions were equivalent to Finn’s.

Beau said, “It turns out that Finn is the real culprit instead. If this is exposed, the Montgomery Group’s stock will plummet
tomorrow.”
A chill flashed in Juliette’s eyes.
She had long suspected that it was Finn who was behind this.
But at the press conference, Patrick was barely holding on. She didn’t have time to expose Finn, fearing that any delay would cause Patrick to collapse.
In the end, Patrick was back in the ICU for emergency treatment, and Finn was still causing trouble.
In that case, it would be understandable for her to get angry.
“Expose him. Why aren’t you doing anything?” Beau urged.
Juliette quickly sorted things out and posted the content on Twitter and Facebook.
Beau said, “I’ll arrange for some influencers to share the content and turn up the heat. Damn it, since Finn wants Patrick dead, I’m going to make him reap what he sows.”
Beau acted on what he said, making calls on the spot, and spending money to get people to repost the content. “I want this to go viral. No one is going to sleep well tonight.”
As his voice fell, the door to the ICU opened. The doctor and nurses came out, announcing the results of Patrick’s treatment.
