Chapter 90: Sabotage
Cammy arrived at work later than usual after waiting for her mother to finish getting ready and then dropping her off at a friend’s house. Despite the delay, she felt relieved that Monica had decided to stay there, especially after complaining non-stop about the mattress in her apartment.
When she pulled up to Cross Tech, she was met with an unexpected sight—a long line of employees waiting to enter the building.
Frowning, she approached one of the people in line. "Excuse me, what’s going on?"
"They’ve started checking employees’ bags and installed a body scanner at the entrance," the employee explained, shaking their head in frustration. "Honestly, I think it’s overkill. Our security system is already top-notch. This just feels unnecessary."
Cammy sighed and joined the queue, moving through the security measures like everyone else before making her way to her department. The first person she looked for was Chiqui, but her desk was empty.
"Cammy, if you’re looking for Chiqui, she’s in a meeting with the other managers," one of her teammates informed her. "The COO called an emergency meeting."
Cammy’s stomach tightened. "What’s going on?" she asked, a sense of unease creeping in.
"We don’t have all the details yet, but there’s a rumor going around that some of the shipments containing materials for other departments were seized at the port. Apparently, drugs were found hidden inside them, which is why security has been tightened. Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if they make us all take a drug test today or tomorrow," the employee said in a hushed tone.
Cammy’s brows knitted together. "That can’t be true. Cross Tech would never allow its shipments to be used for smuggling illegal substances, right?"
