Chapter 53: Inner Voices Ringing Out

With Jake as the center, he could now hear everything clearly within a five-meter radius. He could even deliberately amplify the inner voice of a specific female colleague.

After a quick test, he found that most of the female colleagues within range were internally discussing the client leak incident. Only Lena’s inner voice was preoccupied with something else.

When Jake first joined the company, he had peeked into Lena’s thoughts, assuming she was just Brother Coleman’s relative. Later, he realized she was likely his mistress.

However, Jake had also gotten in through connections, so he didn’t pay much attention. Everyone had their own private affairs.

If he meddled in every single one, chaos would ensue before he could even act as a righteous hero. He’d probably get beaten to death by a swarm of mistresses first.

The morning passed in a flurry of work. The client loss served as a harsh lesson for the entire sales department. Before leaving, Manager Mina issued an order: the top priority was to stabilize existing clients, followed by a strong focus on online sales.

Half a day passed with no sign of Manager Mina’s return. Jake sensed the situation might be more serious than expected. _{free\we,bnovel.c o(m)}

After that business trip with Manager Mina, aside from experiencing her devilish charm, Jake had also learned from her keen observation skills and her precise, big-picture thinking.

Given Manager Mina’s competence and methods, Jake was confident she could easily deduce the mastermind behind the leak.

Lunchtime arrived, and the crowd flooded into the company cafeteria.

Jake stopped Cabel, waiting until everyone had left before asking, "Has anyone unfamiliar come to the company recently? Someone who’s neither a client nor an employee from another department?"

Cabel scratched his head, thinking hard for a long moment before answering, "No."

"Aren’t you at the company too? Why ask me?"

Jake broke into a sweat. At work, he was entirely focused on his tasks. How would he notice the comings and goings of people in the company?

Unlike Cabel—after that competition where Cabel casually pulled out contracts worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, it was clear this guy came from an extraordinary family background.

With no other choice, Jake changed the subject. Staring at the empty entrance, he lowered his voice and asked, "What about Lena? Aren’t you close to her? Has she been acting strangely lately?"

"Hey, come on, she sits right across from you. Why ask me instead of talking to her yourself?"

Jake had no choice but to butter Cabel up. "Well, isn’t it because Brother Cabel is all-knowing, aware of everyone’s movements? (A total pervert who usually trails behind pretty female colleagues, trying to strike up conversations.)"

Flattered, Cabel began recalling with a smug expression. "Actually, there might be something off. Before, Lena didn’t run into Director Brant often in the cafeteria, but lately, she keeps bumping into him during meals. Cabel even complained about it to Lily."

There was definitely something fishy going on. Now, it was time to test Jake’s acting skills. He rarely interacted with Lena, so approaching her out of the blue might alert her.

"By the way, Lena’s having lunch with Lily right now," Cabel said proudly, waving his hand and inadvertently showing off his latest-model Huawei phone.

Jake felt like crying. Who could be this shameless? "I see it, stop waving it around. That new phone’s glare is about to blind me."

"Hehe."

...

The clueless fatty had no idea what was happening before Jake dragged him to the cafeteria. They deliberately took seats near Lena. Patting Cabel’s shoulder, Jake said, "Alright, showtime!"

Instantly, Cabel’s bulky figure appeared at Lena and Lily’s table. As expected, Lena left in disgust. Spotting Jake sitting not far away, she decided to join him instead.

The fatty’s acting wasn’t bad. He started bragging to Lily, completely oblivious to Jake’s situation.

Jake quietly ate his lunch while eavesdropping on Lena’s inner voices. Then Lena sat down across from him.

"Hi."

"Hello."

"Mind if I sit here?"

"Not at all."

Jake didn’t act overly friendly, maintaining his usual demeanor.

Lena, however, couldn’t resist striking up a conversation. "You’ve seemed really busy lately. Family matters?"

Lena wore heavy makeup, her lips a fiery red. She had always found Jake, this handsome and capable colleague, somewhat enigmatic.

"Huh?" Jake looked puzzled, slowly raising his head.

"Oh, something like that."

"What about you? I don’t usually see you at lunch. Where do you sneak off to for extra meals?" Jake flashed a friendly smile, half-joking.

A handsome man’s smile was a rare sight, especially one like Jake—tall, good-looking, and exceptionally skilled at his job.

Lena’s heart skipped a beat. The thought of serving that useless old man in bed made her inner scales tip uncontrollably. She gave Jake what she thought was a perfect smile. "Haha, Jake, you’re such a joker. I’ve been dieting lately, so I don’t eat much."

If it were Cabel, he’d already be spellbound.

But to Jake, this ordinary charm held no appeal. The man Lena mentioned in her thoughts must be Director Brant.

"Really? I think Sister Lena has a great figure. No need to diet," Jake said, sensing the bait being taken.

"Oh, thank you. I still don’t feel satisfied enough."

"Lately, Brother’s been keeping me too busy to eat properly. Maybe I’ve lost weight~"

The true "inner voices" began to ring out.

"Lena is so beautiful, your boyfriend must love you very much."

"I don’t have a boyfriend yet."

"That cheap bastard is too stingy. If it weren’t for the kickback, there’s no way I would have helped him steal the client."

Lena’s scheming heart revealed its true nature within just a few sentences. How could she have known that the handsome man sitting across from her possessed the ability to read minds?

Lena was also a shrewd woman. She knew exactly what to say and what not to say.

Since this matter wasn’t fully settled yet, she hadn’t dared to indulge in shopping recently, afraid of arousing unnecessary suspicion. Manager Mina had also started investigating, so it was better for her to lay low for now.
