Chapter 110

The rehearsal was over, but Eileen wasn’t ready to leave just yet. Her eyes darted around the room, lingering on the laptop nearby.

Egbert, with an icy expression, grabbed the laptop and flipped it open.

Eileen quickly walked over, excitedly saying, “Let me have a look!”

Egbert shot her a glance, made some changes on the code right in front of her, and then handed her the laptop. “Here you go.”

Eileen held the laptop close. The desktop was neat, and the video website isn’t accessible. She blinked, let out a small laugh, and feigned disappointment, “Oh no, you’ve deleted everything and I can’t even open the website. What a shame. Can I borrow your laptop for the night? I don’t have one/ I’ll return it tomorrow.”

Egbert frowned at her innocent act.

Eileen eagerly asked, “Can I? Can I?”

In the end, Egbert agreed..

“I’ll be off then, bye.”Eileen finished and quickly left.

A few minutes later, Egbert started to feel suspicious. The two computers were linked. He took out the other laptop and remotely checked its background operations. Suddenly, a video of a man and woman getting intimate popped up on the screen.

In the room next door, a blushing Janice was dragged by Eileen to watch the video. Janice didn’t really want to watch, but her curiosity got the better of her, “Wow, how can she bend like that…”

Eileen nodded in agreement, “Impressive, right?”

Suddenly, the screen went black. Janice was shocked and shrieked, “Oh no, are we going to get caught?!”

Eileen reassured her, “It’s okay, it’s just Egbert.” With that, she hacked into the laptop’s system.

Two minutes later, the laptop was back up and running, and Eileen resumed watching the video.

But less than a minute later, the screen went black again. Eileen was pissed, “What a party pooper, Egbert!”
