61 Mother and Daughter
Everyone from the R&D department team was dazed upon hearing Jalen’s
words.
“Jalen, what are you saying? Are you confused?”
“Is Dr. South here? Where is he? Can we meet him?”
“Who is Dr. South? Jalen, did you just say Miss Olsen is
Dr. South?”
“You must be joking Miss Olsen is so young..."
Just as everyone thought Jalen was joking, Keira looked at him, her expression
serious. She extended a hand to
him. “Nice to meet you. I'm Dr. South.”
Instantly, the entire team fell silent.
Luca was the first to utter a sharp cry. “Keira! What did
you say? Who are you?!”
The rest were stupefied.

Keira looked over the group.
During the past few days, she had been protected in an unprecedented way.
Even though these people had initially misunderstood her, they quickly cleared
the misunderstanding.
What they did afterward moved her.
She smiled slightly. “I want to thank you all for looking after me these past few
days. If you have any technical issues in the future, feel free to message me.”
With her identity revealed, she could no longer stay here for the desk job. She
only came back with Jalen to say goodbye.
She already had the medical materials, so she could
leave now.
While the team members were still in a state of shock, she quietly stepped back
and walked out with Samuel.
Jalen watched her leave. He unconsciously took a step forward but then
suddenly stopped.
He began to regret something.

His reaction to learning that she was Dr. South was so rude! Had he left a bad
impression on her?
As Jalen was thinking about this, he turned to find the rest of the team bug-eyed,
each sporting an unspoken expression.
It was only when Keira entered the elevator that the team came back to their
senses.
“Ah! Miss Olsen is actually Dr. South!”
“Oh my god, I was actually working with Dr. South!"
“She just said we could talk to her if we have any problems in the future. I've
actually become friends with Dr. South!”
Then, thinking of something, the team rushed to where Keira used to work, and
all the stationary on he desk was swiftly taken.
“These are the pens used by Dr. South!”
“This is a draft paper of Dr. South!!”
“This is a paper cup Dr. South drank from...”

Suddenly, the atmosphere became strange.
Jalen watched them, and for once, he didn’t reprimand them. He suddenly felt at
ease.
In comparison to them, he was very normal!
In the Administrative Department's conference room.
After Keira left, Lewis told the head of the Administrative Department, “Call the
police.”
These words scared the recently arrogant Poppy Hill, who had been released
only two days ago!
The head of the Administrative Department pondered for a moment before
hesitantly speaking, “Mr. Horton, if we call the police, it'll cause a big fuss and
impact our company negatively. Actually, we never intended to call the police
today.”
Even if Keira was proven guilty, they would handle it internally within the Horton
Group and not make it public knowledge.
Lewis glanced at her indifferently.

The head of the Administrative Department's heart jumped, and she immediately
lowered her head, “Yes,
sir”
Poppy shouted, “Mr. Horton, I just wanted to teach my daughter a lesson. What I
stole was my own biological daughter's stuff, and that’s not against the law, right?
The victim didn’t say anything, so why should the police be involved?”
Lewis looked at her coldly. His penetrating gaze made Poppy feel as if she were
in an ice cellar. Then she heard the man’s deep voice. “What you stole is the core
technology of Horton Group, and you're suspected of stealing company secrets,
which is a crime. Even if she doesn't pursue the matter, the company cannot
allow it.”
Poppy froze and swallowed. “Wha-, what secrets? Will
be sentenced?”
Mr. Horton said in a deep voice, “According to Article 219 of the Criminal Law
regarding the behavior of infringing trade secrets, if the circumstances are
serious, the perpetrator shall be sentenced to

fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years
and not more than ten years.”
Poppy was stunned, “Is, is it that serious?”
The head of the Administrative Department gave Mr. Horton a strange look.
Today's incident wasn't serious, and it didn’t cause any loss to the company. Why
was Mr. Horton trying to scare her?
While thinking, Lewis spoke again. “Of course, if you were instructed or deceived,
a lighter sentence may be imposed. So, were you prompted by someone to steal
the information?”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's gaze
shifted to Isla.
Everyone could think.
How would a fifty-year-old woman who was detached from society know about a
concept like renewable
energy?
It was clear that Isla lured and directed her!

The Administrative Department head saw light.
Any normal person in Poppy Hill's situation would now point at Isla to get
themselves off the hook...
But just as she was about to speak up, she heard Poppy shout, “No, Isla knows
nothing about this matter. I did everything, and it has nothing to do with her!”
Isla was next to her, her eyes red. She looked at Poppy and said, “Aunt Hill, even
if you hate Keira and want revenge, you shouldn't implicate me!”
She lowered her head to wipe non-existent tears from the corner of her eyes.
Despite her grievous expression, a fierce light flashed in her eyes.
She wasn't stupid.
This simple act of entrapment was so easy to expose. Therefore, from the very
start, all she gave Poppy were suggestive statements.
After all, from Poppy's point of view, Isla knew nothing about her real mother...
Isla just went to pick Poppy up from jail herself, and on the way she acted scared
and elaborately told Ponnv

Isla wasn't involved in the process at all!
Even if the police came, as long as Poppy didn't implicate her, she would be in
the clear!
As expected, the police arrived quickly and after asking
for details, they only took Poppy away.
Isla didn’t breathe a sigh of relief because she wasn't concerned about Poppy but
about Jake!
Sure enough, Jake's expression darkened.
Even though Isla wasn't taken away, everyone knew what was going on.

He had no way to explain himself!
Jake didn’t even look at Isla and stepped out.
Isla hurriedly followed him, “Jake, let me explain...”
After the two left the meeting room, Lewis watched the direction they went.
Why did Poppy protect Isla so much?
He suddenly said to Tom, “I think Isla seems more like Poppy's daughter.”
