Chapter 801
The leaders of the Station were almost all clustered in the News Department’s office
When Agnes arrived, everyone was in Yolanda’s office, waiting for her
The other colleagues in the office shot Agnes glances filled with a complex mix of emotions.
Agnes could faintly overhear their murmurs, “Is she really Jared’s ex wife? Who would have thought that Agnes isn’t
just one of us, but she’s the former Mrs Whitfield”
“I knew there was something about her A brilliant woman returning from overseas, and yet she’s content with
being a mere freelance reporter in our News Department without a staff position. Now it makes sense, she’s using
the network’s influence to expose Sharon Cold move though, waiting until Sharon won the Best Actress award to

“Agnes doesn’t look like that type of person Let’s not jump to conclusions without knowing the full story
Agnes headed straight to the office.
The Station head, seeing Agnes, looked as if he wanted to throw his computer at her face, “Agnes, I never pegged
you for this kind of person. I specifically asked you to interview the award winning actress, and what is this mess
you’ve written? We are a reputable TV station, not some trashy tabloid You’ve completely tarnished our image *
Facing a barrage of scolding. Agnes‘ voice remained calm, “Sir, I didn’t write this story nor did I publish it. The
original footage of my interview from yesterday has already been sent to Ramona for post production. The
interview video should be in her inbox”
Most of the News Department’s staff were standing at the door, eavesdropping on the commotion inside.
Hearing her name, Ramona quickly stepped in to testify. “I can vouch for Agnes. The interview footage is ready,
and Agnes‘ work was professional and excellent i was planning to send it out first thing this morning, but… But no
one expected this turn of events.
Ramona added. “We all believe that the report wasn’t published by Agnes because there was no need for her to
produce two contradictory reports”
At that moment, Yolanda stepped forward. “The article was posted from your account, with your byline. Are you still
going to deny it? Perhaps yesterday’s interview was just
a smokescreen. Agnes, you’re Jared’s ex–wife, could it be that you were driven by jealousy towards Sharon to seek
revenge? But using the station for your personal vendetta smearing our reputation – that’s something we cannot
overlook.”
Agnes retorted. That article was indeed not my doing. Someone used my name to set me up
Yolanda challenged her, “What value do you possess that makes you worth framing? Besides, aren’t you known for
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmyour good reputation here in the News Department? You claim someone is framing you, then find this person.
Otherwise, it’s just excuses.”
Agnes said. “The office and corridors are monitored by CCTV The article was posted in the wee hours. Just pull the
footage, and whoever appeared at that time is the one trying to frame me”
Agnes knew that if the CCTV was checked, her connection with Jared couldn’t be kept secret any longer, but to
prove her innocence, she was willing to risk it
However, just as they were about to check the surveillance, a security team member came in with bad news due to
a technical glitch, all the CCTV footage from the previous day was lost
Yolanda seized the opportunity to accuse Agnes, “Agnies, did you do it? Destroying evidence is as good as admitting
guilt.”
