Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 777 Investment Withdrawal

At night, Emma sneaked out of bed when Noah fell asleep. She left quietly to the study and switched on Noah’s laptop. However, she didn’t expect that he would set a password.

Emma gave it some thought and entered her birth date. However, it was incorrect. Then, she tried again with Noah’s birth date, which was also incorrect. Lastly, she gave her last shot and entered Stephanie’s birth date, which turned out to be the correct password.

Conflicting feelings rose in Emma’s heart while she looked at the laptop’s home screen. She murmured while she clenched her fists tightly, “Noah, didn’t you say that you don’t have any feelings for her? Then why would you use her birth date as your laptop password? Or did you gradually develop feelings for her?”

The more she thought about it, the more ironic it felt to her.

But it was not the time for her to be sad. At first, Emma wanted to access Noah’s email. However, she didn’t expect that he had changed the password for his email.

The grimace on Emma’s face deepened. She knew that Noah had his guard up against her now. Back when they were in an affectionate relationship, not only did he give her his email password, but he also gave her the passcode for his bank account. To her dismay, Noah became wary of her after he was married.

Still upset, she tried all three of their birth dates, but none were correct.

Emma then searched through all the folders on his laptop and found the proposal that Noah and a person named June created to destroy the Clinton Corporations. It also recorded the plan where the family of the patient who was electrocuted by the phone made a scene in the company.

Emma scanned through the proposal, hurriedly took out her flash drive, and made a copy. Then, she unplugged her flash drive, wiped out all traces of her using the laptop, and switched it off. She finally felt at ease when the laptop screen darkened.

“What are you doing in the study?” Noah’s voice suddenly sounded behind Emma, and the latter was scared out of her wits.

She frantically hid the flash drive behind her and stammered, “I-I’m here to check if the windows were closed. There was a power outage two days ago, and I lit a candle in the study. But I accidentally left the windows open, and the wind almost blew the candle onto the floor. It haunted me when I was trying to sleep just now, so I had no choice but to get up and check on the windows. I can’t help being paranoid since I live alone. I’m sorry.”

However, Noah was staring at Emma’s hand, which she was trying to hide behind her back. “What are you holding?” he asked.

Emma’s eyes brimmed with tears and turned red.

“Noah, we have been in a relationship for so long now. Don’t you believe me?” she asked pitifully as tears rolled down her face.
