Confidential Information
The next day, as expected, Sally received the confidential documents of Seet Group, including data on
the company’s financial flow as well as details of its business partners.
“I’ll keep my promise and release your family. I’ve also deposited thirty years’ worth of your salary into
this ATM card. Take it.”
Sally stood up and left the finance department.
After the manager of the finance department shut the door, he reported the matter to Kyle at once.
“Mr. Kyle, I’ve already given Ms. Sally what she requested according to your instructions. The financial
data and details of our company’s business partners are only partially accurate.”
“Got it. Get back to work and do not mention it to anyone else.”
“Yes, Mr. Kyle.”
After the finance manager left, Kyle tapped his slender fingers on his desk, wondering what Sally would
do with the confidential information which she had gotten.
Right after he picked up his cup and took a sip of his coffee, Sally’s voice sounded from the listening
device.
“In order to prevent any complications, we should hand over these documents to Dad immediately to
exchange for the other half of the antidote! But what excuse should I use to apply for leave? Can I just
say that I have an emergency to attend to? Or should I feign illness and take medical leave instead?”
Kyle frowned when he heard that. Did she request those documents to exchange for an antidote? Has
Steven been poisoned?
Who did that to him?
Why would the perpetrator ask for the confidential information of Seet Group?
Could it be that, other than Steven, there’s someone else who is trying to destroy Seet Group?
Kyle suddenly stopped tapping on the table as he pondered over those questions. Falling into deep
thought, his deep-set eyes darkened.
Half a minute later, the office door swung open as Sally entered his office.
Fixing his gaze on the woman and observing the look on her face, Kyle could guess that she had
something to say.
Has she already come up with an excuse to apply for leave?
Indeed, Sally approached the man’s desk slowly while clutching her stomach. With a pitiful expression
on her face, she said, “Mr. Kyle, my stomach suddenly started aching. Is it OK if I apply for leave?”
“You should just drink more warm water if your stomach is not feeling well,” Kyle replied, speaking
slowly.
“Drinking warm water doesn’t help. I want to go to the hospital for a checkup. I’m really feeling very
unwell.”
“Do you need me to accompany you to the hospital?”
“No, no need. There are a lot of matters for you to deal with at Seet Group. Your time is precious,
please don’t waste it on me.”
Kyle glanced at his watch and replied, “Go quickly and come back! Is one hour enough?”
Erm…
Seriously? He’s imposing a time limit?
“If you’re not back within one hour, send me your location and I’ll pick you up from the hospital.”
Sally did a quick mental calculation and concluded that one hour should be enough for her. After taking
into account forty minutes of traveling time, she still had twenty minutes to hand over the documents to
her dad.
“Yup, sure! That’s fine. I’ll be back right after I see the doctor.”
“OK, go ahead then.”
After Kyle finished speaking, Sally turned around and left.
Kyle picked up the listening device as he lost himself in thought once again. Given that she has only
one hour, she wouldn’t have enough time to return to Imperial Garden to change. If that’s the case, she
would have to meet Steven in her uniform that contains the microchip bug. This way, I would be able to
hear their conversation.
He was very satisfied that Sally’s custom-made uniform had finally come in handy during such a crucial
moment.
After Sally left the office, she took a look at her watch and realized that she would not have enough
time to return to Imperial Garden to change out of her uniform. However, since she was just going to
meet her dad, the woman decided that it did not matter what she wore.
While Sally was driving toward the Maupay family’s old manor, she intentionally made a few detours as
she was worried that Kyle’s men would be following her. After making sure that there was no one else,
she found a secluded spot and parked her car, before running toward the secret room with the
confidential documents.
After seeing Steven, Sally passed the documents to him excitedly.
“Dad, I’ve already completed both tasks which you have entrusted to me. You can take these
documents and exchange them for the antidote!”
Steven took over the documents and perused them before passing them back to Sally with an evil
smirk.
