"Just some family related stuff," Preston said.
Gary shot him a look of doubt, though he decided against prying. "How's things going on your end? I've
got some updates here."
"I'm almost there." Preston's focus intensified, and he began working even quicker.
Then, in a tone of triumph, he declared, "Got it!"
"Nice job!" Gary exclaimed, grinning. "Keep it up. If we manage to crack the next one, well be able to
discover who this person is."
"Alright, let's do this."
The two then continued, driven by their determination.
Near the end of the workday, Nicole received an email from Preston. The email in question contained
an address and a name, though there were no photos or any solid identifications. Seeing this, Nicole
instantly realized this was the identity that Preston, Ryder, and Gary had been working on discovering.
Impressed by their quick progress, she replied with a 'thanks' and forwarded the information to Max for
further investigation. She preferred to keep Lulu out of such covert matters, reserving the more routine
and mundane tasks for her whilst leaving the secretive operations to Max.
After she had sent the message, Nicole began accessing a hacking interface on her computer,
whereupon she quickly found the person's ID. The individual seemed oblivious of the fact that he was
being tracked too. Swiftly, Nicole crafted a tracking program and discreetly implanted it, aiming to
uncover more about them.
All of a sudden, a soft knock echoed through the room, and Lulu peeked in through the slightly ajar
office door. "Time to head out?"
Shutting down her computer, Nicole stood up and replied," Let's go."
As they made their way to the elevator, a voice halted them in their tracks.
"Nicole," Steve called out.
Turning to face him, Nicole asked, "Is there something you need, Steve?"
"Are you heading out?" Steve asked, glancing at the waiting elevator. "Mind if we chat while we walk?"
Once they were inside the elevator, Nicole looked at him and asked, "What happened?"
A shadow of concern and anger flashed in Steve's eyes at once. "It's about Everett."
Nicole's eyes narrowed.
"What's Everett up to now?" she asked with a hint of frostiness in her tone.
She had hoped that Everett would keep a low profile ever since Harvey ditched him.
"Well," Steve began, gritting his teeth. "After Harvey booted him out and James got arrested, Everett
took another blow. And now that he's heard you're in charge of DillCorp, he's lost it. He's planning to go
after the company."
"Is he still at it?" Lulu blurted out, her eyes wide in disbelief.' After all the losses he has sustained, he
still thinks he can seize DillCorp!?'
Steve shook his head and shot Nicole another glance. "The guy's seriously unhinged now. Your Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
team...Are they ready for whatever he throws at you?"
Drawing a deep breath, Nicole replied, "I'll head over and see how they're doing soon."
She had confidence in her team's ability to manage DillCorp, but for them to deal with Everett's tricks
was a different story altogether.
