The next moment, Quinn's voice rang out by her ear. "If I come back and find anything missing from my computer, I'm telling Mom and Dad it was you!", The digital clock on the wall read . Elsa couldn't hold herself up any longer and curled up on the guest couch, drifting into an exhausted sleep. There were still some leftover ibuprofen tablets in her pocket. Half-asleep, she vaguely sensed Wagner tiptoeing into the lounge. Making sure no one noticed him, he quickly shoved a USB drive into her pocket. The live chat exploded: "Oh my god, he's framing her!" "He totally stole the data himself and planted it on Elsa." "This is a setup from start to finish-Elsa's being made the scapegoat." Peter slammed the table and shot to his feet in outrage. "Who the hell would fall for something this pathetic?" Elsa's lifeless eyes stayed locked on the screen, frozen on a particular frame. Then the footage went dark. Nothing could be seen anymore. All that remained was Wagner's unmistakable voice echoing through the hospital room. "Relax, it's all taken care of." "Make it clean. Don't let that bitch catch on," Elsa suddenly felt like her head had exploded. She ripped at the electrode wires in a frenzy. As she yanked at them, her lips moved nonstop in a low murmur. "Why... why won't they just leave me alone?" The heart monitor let out a shrill alarm. A nurse rushed in to check on her. Face tight and voice clipped, the nurse reported quickly, "The patient's in critical condition. We need to resuscitate-now!" The livestream feed abruptly cut off. Even though the judgment livestream ended, the online fury didn't die down-if anything, it only intensified. The sudden cutoff stoked even more outrage. Soon, angry comments flooded Moore Corp's official Twitter page. *So this is how Moore Corp bleeds people dry? This is disgusting." "Absolutely vile. 4 hope this company crashes and burns." If I were Elsa, I'd have quit ages ago. Who the hell stays late and works for free like that?" "To all you soon-to-graduate college kids, open your damn eyes. Never apply to Moore Corp." "Stay the hell away from this company!" P "You're going to issue a statement cutting all ties with the Moore family, That way, none of this garbage you stirred up will come back on us!" Mandy spat the words out without a second thought. Her eyes held no trace of warmth. In that instant- Elsa's hand froze in midair, her mouth slightly open, but no sound came out. She just stared at the woman in front of her, speechless. Smack! Mandy slapped Elsa hard across the face. Send Gifts Discover our latest featured short drama reel. Watch now and enjoy the story!
