That night, Seth finished dinner and went to his study like clockwork.

Tasha went back to her room and waited.

Soon enough, she heard footsteps outside the door, which meant that Seth had gone back to his room to take a shower.

When Tasha passed by the stairway, she saw Julia watching TV downstairs.

This was it—this was the opportunity she had been waiting for! Tasha cautiously tiptoed into the study.

She went straight to Seth’s laptop and plugged in the flash drive Sebastian gave her.

The screen of the computer blinked for a few seconds.

It seemed that the system had been cracked by the program on the flash drive.

Soon, a progress bar popped up on the screen.

Tasha gnawed at her lower lip anxiously.

Every second of waiting was torture.

A few minutes later, she heard Julia’s voice from outside the study.

“Seth, she’s inside. I saw her go in!” All the color drained from her face.

She moved fast and yanked the flash drive out of the laptop.

She looked around the study in a panic, but there was no place to hide.

The sound of footsteps approaching made Tasha’s heart race.

At her wit’s end, Tasha squatted down and pretended to be looking for something in the drawer.

At this moment, the doorknob turned.

The door swung open and Seth and Julia strode in.

Seeing Tasha stand up in a hurry, Julia looked at Seth complacently and waited for his reaction.

Narrowing his insidious eyes, Seth’s gaze darted between the laptop and Tasha.

Cold sweat broke out on Tasha’s forehead, but she managed to maintain a calm expression as she secretly slipped the flash drive into her trouser pocket.
