The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell novel Chapter 543

Gian glanced at Danielle, his voice low. “All this information, it’s the raw data—how did she get her hands on it? Has Millie ever looked through your computer, or anything else of yours?”

Everything about this felt off, as if something hidden was steering the whole affair.

From the very first plagiarism scandal up to now, it seemed as though an invisible hand had been pushing things along, making the waves crest higher.

Danielle genuinely had no idea how Millie had gotten access to her initial data sets.

She thought hard about it.

Maybe it had been in Alexander’s study.

Millie’s reputation at work had already taken a hit from failed collaborations; this competition was her chance to turn things around in the industry.

And yet, at the most critical moment, she’d stumbled again.

She wanted so badly to succeed, to win, that every step she took led her further from her goal.

Listening to the conversation, Kirsten curled her lips in a half-smile. “I’ve said it before—cheaters never prosper.”

Sometimes, the more desperate people get, the harder they try to claw their way back, to feel vindicated.

The more Millie wanted to win, the more she was willing to cut corners.

And it was that single-minded desperation that led to her complete and utter downfall.

Gian shook his head. “Someone as high-profile as Chairman White coming here out of the blue—there wasn’t a single whisper about it beforehand.”

He looked like he’d been sent here for the sole purpose of exposing her.

Danielle’s suspicions grew. Chairman White’s arrival had certainly been abrupt.

She knew Chairman White was especially close with Jake, and that’s the only connection she could make.

Alexander wanted to marry Millie, but Jake wouldn’t have it.

Which meant Millie’s days were numbered.

After all, when it comes to a battle between a father and his son, who do you think wins?

—

After Millie was escorted away, people came and went in a constant stream.

The harsh white lights made her already pale face look ghostly.

There was hardly any color left in her cheeks.
