Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

Alicia didn't really understand what was going on. She stepped forward and flipped through the document. It was her own work, after all, and she immediately knew that this was the one she'd translated when she saw a few key points.

In other words, it wasn't an issue with the person who'd prepared the documents.

It was possible that either Liane or Giselle was framing her! "Liane, you said that you were the one who translated this document, right?" Alicia looked up and directly into Liane's eyes.

"What happens if I said that I have evidence that I was the one who translated this document? Why don't you think about it carefully? Are you sure that you were the one who translated this document?" Liane's heart was thumping in her chest as she clenched her hand into a fist. She quickly went through the document in her head and realized that were no signatures or special markings. As for the translation she thought to herself, "Weren't they all the same? How could she prove that the work was definitely hers? Was she going to hire an appraisal to appraise her work?" Moreover, this was the first tGiselle had assigned her any work! Liane unconsciously glanced at Giselle from the corner of her eye and saw her nodding slightly. Her intuition told her that Alicia was just trying to intimidate her.

"Con, how can I not recognize my own work? Don't try and mislead the people in the room! I finished my work much earlier than you! The only thing was that I did not have the tto submit it into our company's email as I had too many tasks in hand. Are you accusingof plagiarizing your work? You did not think of changing a single word and just copied the entire thing! Don't even try to deny it!" As soon as Chet turned to look at Giselle, she spoke up.

"Yes, I still have the soft copy in my computer, but I've been swamped with work lately, so I did not have tto look through it until this morning before the meeting. I realized that the work was very similar!" Giselle's words flowed smoothly and weren't too accusatory, but it was obvious that she wasn't being completely open.

Alicia could feel their unfriendly gazes on her. She quickly gave it a thought and realised that there were many people who could access the documents, and the documents were normally processed quickly. It wasn't easy to tamper with the work from there. However, it was hard to say when the work had been altered, especially once it was passed to Giselle. It was obvious that Giselle and Liane were on the steam! "Mr. Andrews, Mr. Reynes, I can assure you that that is my work. She ought to givean explanation and a head's up since she stole my work, or at least apologize to me!" Chet shifted in his seat when he heard her explanation.

"It tookone day to translate that document. I even had to work overtto get it done. There are at least three copies that I have saved in my computer!" Alicia said. Liane interrupted her before she could finish her sentence.

"Maybe you deliberately saved it and deliberately worked overtime! Anyway, you can say whatever you like. If you say that you did it, I will believe you! However, I doubt that our style of translating is the same. How is it possible that we think alike and every word is exactly the same? Unless, you can read my thoughts? The documents contained a lot of technical terms. We had to go through three months of training to familiarize ourselves with those terms and you, a newcomer, who had just cback from a long break, is able to translate those terms accurately? Are you tellingthat you're much more competent than a person who had worked here for three years?" The woman was aggressive but Alicia was not fazed. Instead, she looked at her coldly.

"All the information is right here. You can take a copy and look through it again to see whether it is really your work. Since you insisted that you were the one who translated it, you should remember the contents! You have to stop callingunprofessional because I have evidence to prove that I was the one who translated this document! After I translated it, I immediately submitted it to our company's email and there is proof of my submission. What about you? Are you able to prove when you translated your work or submitted it to the director? I believe that the IT department would be able to track down these information!" The two of them had thought of this point. Hence, they arranged for a professional to delete all the information. Upon hearing this, Liane was at ease as this was her trump card.

"Stop trying to stall us! You don't have to argue anymore. It is impossible for you to change the facts! Are you doubting the director? You can go ahead and call the IT department to track these information!" She had already read the information once. Since this was a simple agreement, she briefly went through it and knew that she did not make much mistakes. On the translation, there were a few mistakes, especially in internal documents like the company. She didn't care too much, anebof course, it was even less likely to use it as evidence.

"Alicia, you're going too far!" This time, it was Giselle who spoke. Her tone and face changed tically, as if she had been greatly insulted. "Since you can't prove your innocence, I request to fire her immediately!" Frederick heard this sentence as soon as he stepped into the conference room. He immediately asked, "What's going on?" When Alicia saw that Frederick had returned safe and sound, she immediately felt at ease and slightly smiled.

"Mr. Clements." Everyone stood up and greeted him. Mr. Andrews, who was the chairman of the meeting, also gave up his seat at the head of the table.

After Frederick scanned the room, he walked in with his secretary. He had a serious look on his face and repeated himself, "What's going on?" Did this have something to do with his wife again? Giselle gave a brief report on the matter. When Frederick heard her, he immediately becfurious as he bellowed, "How are you still not able to handle this matter on your own? You have failed your department! You called a meeting just to solve your own problems?" "I'm... I'm sorry, Mr. Clements!" Giselle lowered her head. She was trembling with fear! Frightened by Frederick's anger, Liane also gritted her teeth.

"Who was the one who translated this document? Someone better own up or should I launch an internal m investigation?" Frederick asked. The two of them said in unison, "I was the one who translated it!" Frederick's eyes were filled with anger as he glanced around the room. When had his company beca battlefield for measly things like this? "I have proof that I was the one who translated it! I took more than ten hours to do it! I did not steal her work! I was the one who did everything and I deserve srespect!"

Regardless whether he was back, Alicia was determined to prove her innocence Her professionalism was on the line. She did not want this matter to taint her translating career. Frederick nodded. Alicia then stepped forward with the document in her hand.

"Since you were adamant that you

were the one who translated this document and that I was the one who plagiarized your work, then there are several obvious technical mistakes in this document. Are you able to point out the mistakes that have been amended?" Alicia asked. It was impossible! She had read through the document before and it was the translator's job to translate the document, not to review it Even if there was a mistake, she could just stick totranslating it. Why did she edit the mistakes without permission? Wasn't it clear that there something going on?
