Sienna's fingers trembled slightly as she pushed the file toward Mia, silently asking her to look.
Mia took it with unsteady hands.
For a few moments, the room fell into complete silence again, broken only by the faint sound of paper shifting.
Then, Mia looked up. Her face was pale, her brows drawn together in confusion so deep it almost looked painful.
"I… I can see in this record that Anna sent me an email…" her voice came out slow, uncertain, as if she didn't fully believe what she was reading. "But I didn't find any—"
"Miss Mia," the HR staff interrupted, "You deleted the email. We found it in the deleted folder."
"What?"
The single word slipped out of Mia's lips, barely louder than a breath, yet it echoed sharply in the room.
"I deleted it?" she repeated, her voice trembling now, disbelief and confusion blending into something fragile as her teary eyes looked at the HR staff.
"Yes," the staff confirmed without hesitation. "You deleted it."
