Kallie's expression hardened with suspicion, prompting the director to quickly gesture dismissively. None ve of it is true. It seems she's just trying to stir up trouble deliberately. Given her antagonistic approach, we chose to cut off the conversation."
Kallie scoffed. "She's cunning, using the court of public opinion to her advantage. She's aiming to bring the company down while it's vulnerable.
