The Contract Said No Strings Attached (Charlotte) novel Chapter 306

The office buzzed with whispers, every glance filled with shock and disbelief.

Garcia’s face flushed red as she realized everyone had seen the video. Flustered, she tried to explain herself, her voice trembling, “Don’t believe what you saw. I would never do something like that.”

But no one was fooled. The evidence was right there for all to see—who could possibly believe Garcia was innocent?

Still, everyone knew Garcia wasn’t your average coworker. She’d grown up with the CEO, and their relationship was anything but ordinary. No one dared accuse her outright.

Even now, one of the junior staff hurried to comfort her. “It’s okay, Garcia. I know you didn’t mean any harm. Your wallet must’ve fallen in by accident, right?”

“Ma-maybe that’s what happened,” Garcia stammered, looking pitiful. “I really don’t remember...”

The junior staffer turned to the others, insisting, “See? It was just an accident. Garcia’s already apologized. Let’s not make a big deal out of it.”

Their ability to twist the truth was almost impressive.

Rebecca watched the scene unfold, struggling not to laugh at how desperately the junior staffer tried to whitewash Garcia’s actions.

It was clear that no one dared call Garcia out because of her connections. But that was their problem. Garcia had always had Dylan to back her up from the moment she joined the company.

Rebecca finally spoke up, her eyes sweeping the room. “The evidence is right here. I think everyone can decide for themselves who’s innocent. Of course, if some people want to turn a blind eye and suck up to the powerful, that’s their business. Frankly, I couldn’t care less about what those people say.”

Garcia and her little sidekick turned green with anger at Rebecca’s words.

Rebecca didn’t care; all she cared about was clearing her own name.

Dylan never brought up the incident again, but Garcia found this silent treatment even harder to bear than being fired.

No one shunned Raina anymore, either. In fact, people seemed to pity her.

Garcia had become the designated villain.
