At that moment, Marvin stood up and said, "Let's take a vote."

Marvin was the former CEO of the Elikin Group. As soon as he spoke, those who were about to raise their hands fell silent.

Harper looked at Felix and asked, "Mr. Rodriguez, what do you think?"

Felix lowered his gaze, deep in thought. The situation was dire and seemed to be slipping out of control.

FusionX Company had spent billions of dollars on research and development and raised billions more in funding for this project.

After today's events, those massive investments were essentially wasted.

FusionX Company needed to answer to its investors and shareholders. The compensation, penalties, and plummeting stock value would be astronomical.

If not handled properly, the company could face bankruptcy.

This was the most challenging time for FusionX Company, and the weight on Felix's shoulders was overwhelming.

But the person awaiting judgment was Harper.

He glanced at Harper, who remained calm and composed. Since he had chosen Harper, he needed to have faith in her and stand by her side.

Felix nodded at Harper.

Just as he was about to speak, his phone suddenly buzzed repeatedly.

He picked it up and saw dozens of identical videos.

The video showed Harper with another man.

Instinctively, Felix looked up at Harper.

At the same time, the phones of all the executives buzzed, and everyone received the same video.

Everyone was shocked as they watched the video. It showed Harper and Mason together.

If Harper had betrayed Caden to be with Mason, did that mean she could also betray FusionX Company?

Marvin, increasingly agitated, spoke with a sarcastic tone, "Ms. Orsini certainly has a lively social life, always surrounded by lovers."

"Could it be that Luminary Innovations Inc. is also in cahoots with Ms. Orsini?"

He was insinuating that Harper had betrayed FusionX Company to collaborate with Luminary Innovations Inc.

Determined to oust Harper from FusionX Company, Marvin pressed on, "Call the police. Whether Harper is a spy or not, she must bear the greatest responsibility. If she's guilty, let her go to jail. If she's innocent, I'll make sure she can't find a foothold in this industry."

Marvin's eyes were sharp, and his tone was vicious.

At this point, Manuel spoke up slowly, "If Ms. Orsini leaves, I leave too. I'll pay the penalty. You can use my patents as you wish. Make sure Ms. Orsini can't find a foothold in the industry? Sorry, as long as I'm here, you can't do that."

"Mr. Bailey, you..."

His words left everyone speechless.

Harper glanced at Manuel.

Manuel looked back at her and nodded slightly.

Though Manuel often seemed unreliable, he proved dependable in critical moments.

Felix then spoke, "Ms. Orsini will not be suspended. Ms. Orsini is the CEO of FusionX Company and will handle this matter fully. No one is to interfere. During this period, Ms. Orsini has the authority to use all company resources. If this doesn't resolve the issue, I will resign and relinquish all my shares."

His words were resolute, almost as if he was staking everything he had.

The conference room fell silent.

After a while, someone finally spoke, "Mr. Rodriguez, for your sake, we'll give Harper one more chance, but this will be the last. There won't be another."

Another shareholder spoke coldly, "One month. We give her one month. If Harper can't resolve it in a month, she must leave FusionX Company immediately."

Felix looked at Harper.

Harper nodded.

The decision was made.

Marvin and his group stormed out of the conference room. As he passed by Harper, his expression was hostile.

Harper smiled lightly, unfazed.

But as Marvin passed by Manuel's seat, Manuel suddenly extended his long leg.

Marvin, strutting arrogantly, didn't notice it and fell forward, landing on the ground.

His subordinates rushed to help him up.

Marvin glanced at Manuel, pursed his lips, but ultimately said nothing.

He could deal with Harper and scheme against Felix, but he had no way to handle Manuel.

"Ms. Orsini, let's go." Manuel stood up slowly and spoke to Harper.

As he left, the drone on the table took off and followed closely behind him.

Harper was curious. "You don't have a remote. How does the drone keep following you?"

"It's an upgraded smart robot with a camera. It can fly without a remote. By the way, you asked me to keep an eye on my assistant, right? The drone has been following her and captured a lot of interesting things."

The conference room fell silent.

Harper's expression turned cold.

The drone had followed her before, likely capturing a substantial amount of footage.

Realizing he might have revealed too much, Manuel quickly lowered his head, covering his mouth and pretending to cough.

"I've been working late, might have caught a cold."

Harper gave him a cold, threatening look, "I think you're losing it."

As they left the conference room, Harper was already making plans in her mind.

During the meeting, everyone on the board received the video simultaneously, and Manuel's research was stolen. These coincidences were no accident.

Who could it be? Besides Neal, who else?

Thinking of this, Harper's green eyes turned icy.

If there was a way to leave her a way out, Harper wouldn't push them to the brink.

But now, Neal had really provoked her, and she wouldn't let him off.

Meanwhile, the research department was in chaos, everyone was tense and panicked.

Only Neal sat calmly at his desk, a mocking smile on his lips. Harper must be in a terrible situation.

'Harper, you bring this on yourself. If you let me off when I reported over your head, I don't have to humiliate you.'

'If I get promoted to the core of FusionX Company, I don't need to use Manuel's assistant, Lillian Campbell, to steal secrets. We can both benefit. You believe yourself to be clever, but you are merely acting smug.'

He had already envisioned Harper's downfall.

The board wouldn't let Harper off.

She should be suspended by now.

After Feilx received the video, he would send the video to Caden. Caden would probably want to kill her.

And Mason, knowing this, would never associate with her again.

As for Manuel, aware that his research had been stolen, he wouldn't let it go.

With all these people targeting Harper, she would have no choice but to flee.

Marvin would report everything to the police. Once the police got involved, Harper would be detained, interrogated, and maybe even imprisoned.

Harper would be ruined, disgraced, and abandoned by everyone. She was truly finished.
