Severe silence enveloped the whole room. On the big screen, the CEO’s face remained cool, like a statue devoid of emotion. No one said a word. Even Sofia couldn’t hide the slightest nervousness that peeked through her eyes. He looked straight into the camera. \u2014 I’ll just ask one more question.<\/div>\n
\u2014 Who made unauthorized changes to this department’s data system?<\/div>\n
The wind is getting heavier. I stand in silence. Sofia is also quiet. Then suddenly he steps forward. \u2014 It’s me.<\/div>\n
Everything was stopped. Even the employee who had just come in to give the news was stunned in shock. But Sofia isn’t done yet.<\/div>\n
\u2014 But I’m not the only one guilty.<\/div>\n
I closed my eyes slightly. He switched his gaze at the screen.<\/div>\n
\u2014 For many years, the way this department runs has been outdated. All decisions need to go through Isabella. There is no freedom. No chance for others to decide for themselves.<\/div>\n
There are some team leaders in the back who nodded slowly. Then I realized they had been preparing for this for a long time. Sofia has moved on.<\/div>\n
\u2014 The changes I made are to prove that we can run the department without relying on just one person.<\/div>\n
Her voice is full of confidence. It’s like a speech that he’s rehearsed several times. But no emotion on the CEO’s face. He only asked one question.<\/div>\n
\u2014 Did you know it is against the policy to change data in contracts?<\/div>\n
Sofia got a little stiff.<\/div>\n
\u2014 I just adjusted some information to better fit the real situation.<\/div>\n
\u2014 Do you have permission? \u2014 Nothing.<\/div>\n
\u2014 Do you have a report submitted to the management? \u2014 Nothing.<\/div>\n
\u2014 Any document to prove approval? \u2014 Nothing.<\/div>\n
Each question is like a hammer that gradually crushes his confidence. But the following question completely silenced her.<\/div>\n
\u2014 Then, why do you think you have the right to do that?<\/div>\n
For the first time, he didn’t answer anything. Suddenly the screen split in two. Another person has surfaced. The Director of Internal Audit. He opened an electronic file.<\/div>\n
\u2014 Over the past three days, we reviewed the system’s full access history.<\/div>\n
People looked at each other in the room.<\/div>\n
\u2014 We have identified all unauthorized changes.<\/div>\n
Sofia’s hands were shaking. \u2014 Nevertheless…<\/div>\n
He paused for a moment.<\/div>\n
\u2014 Surprisingly, money is not the main target of these changes.<\/div>\n
Everyone was shocked. \u2014 What does that mean?<\/div>\n
Question from a team leader. The auditor moves to the next page.<\/div>\n
\u2014 Most of the modified data is related to performance evaluations of employees.<\/div>\n
Suddenly my heartbeat skipped faster. Sofia has turned brown. For the first time, I saw true fear on his face.<\/div>\n
\u2014 Since last month, more than 120 KPI records have been changed.<\/div>\n
Various charts and reports appeared on the screen.<\/div>\n
\u2014 There are some employees whose performance ratings have increased abnormally.<\/div>\n
\u2014 While others suddenly went down.<\/div>\n
The room is in a mess. One team leader stood up immediately.<\/div>\n
\u2014 You mean someone manipulated KPI scores? \u2014 Yes.<\/div>\n
\u2014 Do you have evidence? \u2014 There are.<\/div>\n
The auditor pressed a button. Access logs appeared immediately. The creator’s name is clearly written.<\/div>\n
SOFIA REYES.<\/div>\n
Not even once. Not twice. But dozens of times. – Impossible!<\/div>\n
shout of one.<\/div>\n
\u2014 My team’s performance was at 96% last month! \u2014 When the report arrived, it became 71% only!<\/div>\n
\u2014 I thought there was a system error! \u2014 Me too! \u2014 Our team lost their bonus because KPI went down!<\/div>\n
Complaints are coming in one after another. Little by little everyone’s views changed. For the first time since I’ve been back in the company, I’m no longer the one they see as guilty. It’s Sofia now. He has completely lost control.<\/div>\n
\u2014 You don’t understand! \u2014 You shut up!<\/div>\n
The CEO screams loudly.<\/div>\n
Instantly the whole room went silent. Sofia took a deep breath. \u2014 Yes, I changed the data.<\/div>\n
\u2014 But if I didn’t do that, no one would see that this department needs a change.<\/div>\n
\u2014 Isabella had everything under control for too long.<\/div>\n
\u2014 I’m just helping them see the truth.<\/div>\n
I have finally spoken.<\/div>\n
\u2014 By destroying their own results?<\/div>\n
She turned her back on me. Her eyes were filled with rage. \u2014 You’ve always been like that.<\/div>\n
\u2014 You always think that you’re the right one. \u2014 You always wanted to be a savior.<\/div>\n
I looked straight at him. \u2014 Do you know why Miguel’s KPI went down?<\/div>\n
She got pulled over. I pointed at the screen. \u2014 Because you changed it. \u2014 Do you know why the customer service team lost their bonus? \u2014 Because you changed it.<\/div>\n
\u2014 Do you know why our three biggest clients left?<\/div>\n
\u2014 Because you allowed those who are not yet ready to hold important accounts.<\/div>\n
With every word I let go, he becomes poorer. I came closer to the screen.<\/div>\n
\u2014 You think everyone wants freedom. \u2014 But what they need is responsibility.<\/div>\n
\u2014 Freedom doesn’t mean you can do anything.<\/div>\n
\u2014 Being independent doesn’t mean you break the whole system.<\/div>\n
\u2014 And a leader doesn’t have to be the most popular person in the room.<\/div>\n
\u2014 I’m here to protect the total outcome.<\/div>\n
The silence has struck once again. No one objected. Because the truth is right in front of them. Profit went down. Clients are gone. The bonuses are gone. And all of that is true. Suddenly the CEO spoke.<\/div>\n
\u2014 Isabella. \u2014 Yes. \u2014 I want to know something.<\/div>\n
All eyes on me. \u2014 If you knew this before, why didn’t you stop him immediately?<\/div>\n
I took a deep breath. \u2014 That’s also the easiest thing to do. \u2014 I can fire him immediately when I see the group chat. \u2014 I can revoke all her access. \u2014 I can go straight to management. \u2014 But if I did that, no one would see the real problem.<\/div>\n
I stopped.<\/div>\n
\u2014 They need to see the results of the decisions they supported.<\/div>\n
Everything is quiet. The CEO gave a nod. Then he looked at Sofia.<\/div>\n
\u2014 Sofia Reyes.<\/div>\n
Suddenly his voice became colder.<\/div>\n
\u2014 Based on the result of the preliminary audit, you are suspended as of today.<\/div>\n
Sofia’s face looks like she’s losing color. \u2014 Nope…<\/div>\n
\u2014 And your case will be transferred to the legal department for deeper investigation. \u2014 Nope!<\/div>\n
But it’s too late. Everyone thought the meeting was over. Yet the Director of Internal Audit speaks again. \u2014 Momentarily.<\/div>\n
Everything turned around. \u2014 We’ve discovered another one.<\/div>\n
I suddenly felt a strange feeling of nervousness. He looked at his report.<\/div>\n
\u2014 In our investigation, we discovered that Sofia is not the only one with unauthorized access to the system.<\/div>\n
Suddenly the whole room got stiff. Sofia got a quick look at the auditor. And that time, I saw a strange smile on her lips again. It’s like he knows something we don’t. The auditor has resumed.<\/div>\n
\u2014 There is another high-level account that has been repeatedly logged in from outside the company for the past two months.<\/div>\n
The CEO is so wrinkled. \u2014 Whose account is that?<\/div>\n
The auditor quietly looked at the screen. Then he read the name. And that name shook the whole room.<\/div>\n
\u2014 The owner of that account… \u2014 is the company’s Executive Vice President.<\/div>\n
At the same time, Sofia suddenly smiled. That is no longer the smile of fear. Except for someone who knows the real struggle… is just getting started.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
