The Doormat Wife’s Ultimate Glow-Up novel Chapter 101

“We’ve done our research. That man was arrested for espionage three years ago and has already been sent back to his country.

“And just recently, someone hacked into the computers in your lab. The IP address traces back to inside the company. Out of everyone on your team, you’re the only one who can operate two computers at once. We need you to come with us.”

Reese wanted to explain, but she was too panicked to get any words out. All she could do was let them take her away.

As they passed the company’s glass doors, she caught the stares of her coworkers. Shock, confusion, and a hint of suspicion—none of them even tried to hide it.

“Remember how someone said I hadn’t passed the background check and shouldn’t be in the lab?” Lyla’s voice piped up behind her, gloating. “Looks like somebody was pointing fingers to cover for themselves. Guess they were hoping I’d take the fall.”

Reese didn’t bother looking back. Zach really outdid himself this time.

All she’d done was use Sebastian’s help to get her mom’s necklace back. She never imagined Zach would go this far, framing her like this.

The interrogation room was cold and blindingly bright.

They laid out the same old photos in front of her, along with a stack of phone records.

“Ms. Meyer, we found three calls between your number and a foreign intelligence agency a few years ago.” One investigator slid the call log toward her. “Care to explain?”

“That was the agency handling my visa. They called to tell me I needed to submit more documents.” Reese stared at the dates—it was exactly when she’d been pestering them about her application.

“But this number is registered to a foreign intelligence organization.”

The agent leaned in, voice serious. “You were involved in the Blade project. The system you designed is now used by the military. If you leaked any information, the consequences would be severe.”

“I didn’t.”

Reese stared him down, not backing off for a second. “Every academic exchange was filed and recorded. The whole research process was encrypted. I can provide every original file for comparison.”

For three days, it was the same back-and-forth.

They threw Zach’s edited chat logs at her, photos taken from the worst angles, even brought in “witnesses” claiming they’d seen her meet privately with a blond man.

Reese’s voice was raw, her eyes bloodshot, but she never gave in.
