Chapter 271 Making Friends Carelessly

Tiffany didn't show a hint of guilt as she stared directly into Edmund's eyes. They locked eyes for several seconds before Edmund finally looked away, casting a cold, angry glare at Tiffany.

"You better not let me find out what you've been up to! Tiffany, I don't want you distracted by anything else right now. Fix that program immediately and bring it to my office!"

Edmund didn't want to waste any more time. He believed that with Tiffany's skills, she should be able to crack the code quickly instead of dragging it out.

He didn't have much time left as the police had raided the underground venue, and many of the bosses were already unhappy.

They were starting to talk about pulling their stocks and stopping their investments in

the company.

Edmund needed to produce a satisfactory program and results to appease them.

"Got it."

Tiffany nodded silently and left the office, with Leon following her.

Steven watched Tiffany leave, then glanced at Edmund, giving a silly smile.

"Since Tiffany's gone, I'll head out too."

Edmund didn't even spare Steven a glance, and Steven wisely left.

Now, only Edmund and Lauren were left in the office, staring at each other.

Edmund's gaze inadvertently fell on the safe, and he began to question Lauren. "Lauren, did you mess with my safe the last time you were in my office?"

"Yes."

Lauren didn't bother to hide it anymore because she knew there was no point in lying.
