Michael glanced at Jasmine and said, “This must be Mrs. Shawn. We are holding a meeting. You cannot participate even though you are Mr. Shawn’s wife. Please leave.”

Jasmine walked past Boyce and placed the box of “apples” on the table and said, “I am aware that, as a family member, I am not in a position to speak here. But there’s definitely a reason I’m here.”

She then pointed to the box and said, “I received this box of apples yesterday when I came home from work. As a maid’s family, I know better than to accept gifts, even if it’s a box of apples. That is why I have come to deliver the box of apples.”

Michael looked at the box and asked, “Are there really apples in the box?” Jasmine asked in turn, “Could there be bananas in a box marked with apples?”.

“It’s just a box of apples, okay…” Said the inspector.

“Even though it’s just a box of apples, I can’t accept it because it was given to me by someone I don’t know. Although I am young, I remember Chairman Mao’s teachings that government officials should not take even a needle and thread from citizens. This box of apples is worth at least twenty dollars and that is worth a lot of needles and thread.”

Michael rolled his eyes and said, “I haven’t eaten apples in a long time, why don’t we open it up for a bite.”

Jasmine said, “Suit yourself. This isn’t mine and I can’t decide what to do with it.”

Michael went ahead and removed the tape and opened the box. He pulled out the contents for all to see and asked, “Are those apples?” Jasmine looked surprised and all eyes turned to Jasmine.

Michael spoke again, “Could it be that you knew something was going on and you used this form to return this ill-gotten money?”

Jasmine glanced at Michael and remembered that Dolores had warned her about the possibility of someone using this against her. The truth was that what Dolores had foreseen did happen. Dolores had prepared Jasmine to insist that she knew nothing about the money.

Jasmine insisted, “I didn’t know there was money in the box. They insisted to me about this box. If I had known it contained money, I would have brought it last night. The reason I’m here now is that I thought it was just apples. If I had known it was money, I wouldn’t have wasted a moment delivering it.”

“Ha, did they insist you? I don’t believe it.”

Jasmine replied, “You can investigate, besides…”

She pulled out her phone to show them the security footage, “If you don’t believe it, you can watch this video.”

A person next to Boyce took the phone and transferred the video to the computer for all to see. However, Michael didn’t finish his attacks and looked toward Boyce: “Don’t tell me you didn’t know about this. Why didn’t you deliver this money on your own?”

“I didn’t know anything about it. There are location and time stamps on the video. You can see it yourself…” interjected Jasmine.

“What do they have to do with Mr. Shawn knowing about it?” interrupted Michael to Jasmine and asked.

Jasmine was confident in her answer, “Just take a look at the time. This happened yesterday after six o’clock. I was already asleep when Boyce came home. That’s why I didn’t inform him. I’m sure someone here can validate what time Boyce left the station yesterday.”

As soon as he said this, someone spoke up, “Mr. Shawn was with us yesterday. There were new leads in the previous case and Mr. Shawn was with us until midnight. It was only to be hoped that Mrs. Shawn would be asleep by the time he returned.”

The evidence lined up firmly to show that Boyce did not know about this incident. His wife had received a box of apples and delivered it the next day.

The evidence was in plain sight.

“We received a complaint and, although it was explained to us, we had to follow procedures. As a department inspectorate, there should be zero tolerance for corruption. Facts should not be misrepresented.” said the inspectorate.noveldrama

The current conclusion was favorable to Boyce, but investigations must be completed. Therefore, it was not necessary to suspend him before the investigation was completed. All those involved must cooperate with the investigations.

Boyce had other tasks to work on and instructed Bruno to send Jasmine home.

After leaving the room, Bruno asked her, “How did you manage to break into the meeting room?”

Indeed, some people tried to prevent her from getting to the meeting room. Besides, she was carrying the box, but she managed to break through them.

“Rest assured, everything will be fine.” Bruno assured her as they reached the station entrance.

Jasmine said, “I’ll go home alone.”

Bruno smiled and replied, “Mister Shawn has instructed me to send you home.”

Jasmine pointed to the black sedan waiting for her and then turned to Dolores and said, “Dolores, it’s settled.” Dolores smiled happily.

Although Dolores didn’t have time to get ready, she was equally beautiful and elegant. Her smile made her even more charming.

Bruno was stunned and then quickly said, “I’m going back to my work now as someone is waiting for you.”

Jasmine waved a thank you, “Please go ahead.”

Dolores opened the car door and said, “Let’s go.”

Jasmine climbed into the front passenger side and thanked Dolores repeatedly. If it weren’t for Dolores’ help, things would not have gone so smoothly. Just then, her phone rang.

When she answered the call, her current employer informed her that she had been laid off. She had just started work and not only had she taken sick leave, but she was late for work.

She lowered her head in disappointment and replied, “I understand.”

Dolores noticed her sudden change in mood and asked, “What happened?”

Jasmine explained, “I had been escorted out.”

“They weren’t going to keep you even if you had finished your internship.

You’re only in your second year of college. You have plenty of opportunities. Focus on giving birth and then worry about work.” Dolores advised her.

The company definitely wouldn’t keep her when they found out she was pregnant. Besides, Boyce would be very busy and if she worked too, then they would have very little time for each other. After all, they had recently gotten married. Someone would have to stay home.

Dolores respected Jasmine’s decision and said, “If you still want to work, I can help you get a job.” Matthew found it easy to get her a job that was within her field of study.

Jasmine replied, “You’re right. I won’t be able to work long even if I don’t get fired.” Besides, now that Boyce has just been promoted, I shouldn’t let him worry about the situation at home.”

Then she turned to Dolores, “Is it true that women had to sacrifice their goals after marriage?”
