Chapter 90
Something was up with both Cathy and Sarah.
Alyssa nodded, keeping her phone’s video recording on until she left Cathy’s room.

Just as she was about to stop recording, she noticed on the video that Cathy had pulled a design draft from the folder Alyssa had just handed her. Then, to her shock, Cathy picked up her coffee cup and poured it all over the design.
Alyssa’s eyes widened in shock. “What on earth is she doing? Why would she pour coffee on a design draft? Was she holding a grudge against someone in the design department and trying to ruin their work? she thought.
At that moment, Alyssa’s back headed to Cathy’s room. Alyssa realized Cathy had no clue her phone was still recording. However, she was shocked by Cathy.
Alyssa thought, ‘Did Cathy think no one would catch her in the act? I have no idea who crossed Cathy or why she would do such things to harm someone like this.
Puzzled up, she noticed Cathy getting up from her seat, folder in hand, and heading to Andrew’s room.
Alyssa quickly saved the video on her phone, returned to her desk, and started working.
A few moments later, Sarah approached and tapped on Alyssa’s desk. “Alyssa, Mr. Coleman wants to see you in his office,” she said.
Alyssa put down the work, stood up, and walked toward Andrew’s room.
Sarah sneered as she watched Alyssa walk away. ‘Alyssa, if you think you can compete with Ms. Carlson, you’re still pretty naive. Today’s your last day at Coleman Fashion,‘ she thought.
Then, Sarah reached over and moved a potted fortune tree from Alyssa’s desk to her own. “She won’t need this anymore, anyway,” she whispered.
Alyssa knocked on Andrew’s door and waited. After a while, a voice from Andrew’s room finally called out, “Come in.” She pushed open the heavy frosted glass door and stepped inside.
To her surprise, it was not just Andrew in the office but also Simon and Cathy.
They all seemed unhappy.
Alyssa asked softly, “Mr. Coleman, are you looking for me?”
Andrew glanced at Cathy.
Cathy handed the folder to Alyssa with a cold stare. “Ms. Dawson, as a secretary, can you at least show some basic common sense?” she said curtly.
“Pardon me?” Alyssa replied intuitively.
“Do you have any idea how important these design drafts are to our company? How could you be so reckless?” Cathy asked.. Cathy paused for a moment, then her tone suddenly turned lower. “Or was this intentional?” She added.
What is she talking about?‘ Alyssa talked to herself.
Cathy gave a mischievous smile at Alyssa and opened the folder in her hand. “Ms. Dawson, are you still playing dumb? Just

look at what you did to this design draft. How do you expect to use it now?” She said.
Alyssa glanced down and saw the design drafts in the folder, now ruined by coffee stains.
The image was a blurry mess, with even the outlines barely visible.
Alyssa realized Cathy wasn’t targeting anyone else but her. The ruined design drafts were a scheme to blame her.
No wonder everything felt off the moment she walked into the office. Sarah was acting weird, and Cathy was no better.

However, Cathy could not have guessed that Alyssa had her phone recording the entire time, catching every sneaky moment she did.
Alyssa smirked and asked, “Why is Ms. Carlson blaming me for this?”
On the other hand, Cathy responded, “If it wasn’t you, then who else could it be? This folder hasn’t been touched by anyone else but you. Are you accusing Mr. Sanders of ruining the design draft? Does he want to kick himself?”
Alyssa only curled her lips and said, “Ms. Carlson, you also handle this, don’t you?”
