the core technical blueprint.” Mr. Percy wasn’t in the mood for chitchat.
Their team had been hitting bumps all year, ruffling the feathers of the higher ups.

bad star?
After watching him storm out. Karen tugged on Dorothy’s sleeve.
“What are we gonna do? Can we make it in three days?”
“Im not sure.” In fact, Dorothy couldn’t figure out where to start.
Heather definitely wasn’t going to confess. The gap in power between the two sides was substantial.
There was no silver lining in sight
“Why don’t you lure Heather out? Record her secretly, then we can get evidence of her confession”
Dorothy sat down and rubbed her temples.
“You’re oversimplifying things. She’s probably got all her bases covered.”
“Or you could turn to Mr. Lopez. From your conversation with Mr. Percy, it seems like there might be a
chance. If Heather’s only doing this because of a minor issue, maybe Mr. Lopez would be willing to
mediate

After seeing Dorothy, he quickly got out of the car. “Need a lift?”
“Mr. Nelson, it’s not the weekend. Don’t you have class?”
“I’ve taken a leave. It’s okay”
She frowned and stepped back. “You don’t need to do this. Go do your thing. Please give your friends a
thank you from me. The messages they retrieved are very crucial for me. I’m grateful enough, so I can’t
accept any more help from you.”
“But you’re alone, and who knows how many people are behind Heather planning this? Can you fight
them on your own?”
Dorothy was at a loss for words.
“I just want to help you. It’s hard to see someone who works so hard like you being used as a
