    Samantha sent it to Ronald to ask him if Timothy was attending a banquet that night.


    Ronald replied a few secondster. [Yes, Ms. Larsson. He’ll be attending a banquet tonight.]


    Samantha’s eyes rolled around inside her eye sockets as she ced her phone down.


    Based on her observations in recent days, Timothy was a workaholic who stayed in thepany for a very long time. Even if there was a banquet that evening, he would alwayse back to thepany and work after it ended.


    There were times he slept at thepany when he had to workte.


    As a result, she felt that there would be a very high chance for his medications to be kept in the office.


    That was the only time Timothy went out in all her days ofying low. Such an opportunity might note again if she did not seize it.


    Moreover, she wanted to get it done as quickly as possible so she could leave soon and never have to see Timothy and Harmony ever again!


    It was already five in the evening. Most of the employees would leave work a littleter when Timothy was around, but whenever he was not around, they almost always left when it was time to clock out. The longest they would stay behind was about seven o’clock, after which all of them would have left thepany.


    She needed to wait until they were gone before she could move around easily.


    Samantha yed with her cell phone out of boredom, either swiping through some Qittoq short videos, ying poker, or chatted with Old Madam Barker on WeTalk. Two hours gradually passed.


    She stood up and walked out of the office.


    Sure enough, the employees in the office lobby outside had all left and the lights had been switched off.


    Samantha did not act immediately but looked up and nced across the surveince cameras at each corner.


    She had, along with Rochelle, analyzed the entire n in which she broke into Timothy’s hotel suite. Back then it was the surveince cameras that led to Timothy discovering her, which subsequently led to Matthew’s kidnapping.


    They had destroyed the surveince footage at the time but were still caught by Timothy.


    Therefore, she could not let the surveince cameras capture her nor have even the tiniest of slip-ups.


    Samantha had already figured out the shifts of the Barker Group’s security guards. Since everyone had clocked off for the day, only two security guards were on duty in the surveince room.


    She took the elevator downstairs and went to the surveince room.


    Only one security guard was watching the screens and he was surprised to Samantha walking in. He immediately got up and said respectfully, “Ms. Larsson! What brings you to the surveince room?”


    Samantha smiled and said, “I misced a very important file and I can’t seem to recall where I put it. I came over here to have a look at the surveince footage to see if I can find it.”


    The entire Barker Group, with the exception of the closed offices and restrooms, was equipped with cameras almost everywhere. That was how she came up with that very reasonable-sounding excuse.


    “I see, let me know the approximate time frame and I’ll help you find it,” the security guard replied diligently.


    Samantha shook her head. “I’ll do it myself. It won’t be good if anyone else knows that I misced an important document. I’d rather not let anyone find out.”


    The security guard nodded understandingly.


    He was well aware of how turbulent thepany had been in recent days.


    Samantha was a deputy CEO that appeared out of nowhere. The board members refused to acknowledge her, while Timothy the CEO did not seem to like her either. Timothy frequently paraded his lover Harmony in front of Samantha, and any wrong move would certainly be held against her in the future.


    The security guard did not want to get involved in such a muddled-up mess and so stood up immediately. “In that case... please take your time, Ms. Larsson. I’ll go out to patrol ande back once you’re done.”


    Samantha smiled gratifiedly. “Thank you.”


    After the security guard left the surveince room, Samantha locked the door and walked to themand console. She identified the cameras for the top floor and switched them off without hesitation.


    In the blink of an eye, all the cameras on the top floor were switched off.


    Samantha went back to the top floor.


    She nevertheless checked the top floor very carefully and even went to the men’s restroom. It was only after she confirmed that it was really empty that she went to the CEO’s office.


    Samantha pushed the door open, walked in, then switched on the lights in one swift movement.


    She could not help butugh at herself. Ever since she came back, she had snuck around so much that she was bing more proficient at being a thief.


    The first ce she walked to was his desk. Although there were plenty of documents there, she nced across the desk and found nothing even remotely reminiscent of medication.


    She opened the drawers one by one and found nothing but files.


    Next, she walked to the bookcase and searched carefully but still found nothing.


    After confirming that she had checked the entire office, she turned around and walked toward the adjacent lounge.


    She walked to the bedside and came up empty-handed when she searched there. She rummaged through the bedside table and found nothing either. Lastly, she went through the dressing room and the bathroom, but there was still nothing to be found.


    Samantha felt a little confused.


    There were no vitamins even, let alone medication.


    That would mean...Timothy did not take any medication.


    Was the spection about his multiple personalities proven wrong?


    Could it be that he never had multiple personalities? Was the then Timothy the real Timothy and he had just been pretending earlier?


    Samantha’s footsteps were a little heavy when she walked out of the lounge.


    She could not describe how she was feeling then, whether or not her glimmer of hope had shattered or whether she should not have had such hope in the first ce.


    Did she not have a clear look as to who Timothy’s true character was?


    If that was the case, then there might not be any further hope for Matthew...


    Samantha’s heart felt agonizingly painful, though she did not know whether it was because of Timothy or Matthew.


    All of a sudden, there were footsteps from outside.


    Samantha’s eyes narrowed and she immediately snapped back. ‘Seriously? Timothy’s back so soon? Something must have happened!’


    She instinctively leaped to the wall and switched off the light before shrinking behind the sofa.


    Under no circumstances should she allow herself to be caught, or else Timothy would never allow her to continue staying in the Barker Group.


    The door to the office was pushed open as soon as she hid.


    It was indeed Timothy who came back, along with...Harmony.


    Harmony was also wearing evening attire. It looked as though she had apanied him to the banquet and came back with him.


    Samantha nced at them from the shadows. She did not know whether Timothy had drank too much, but he seemed to be frowning and had to be helped in by Harmony.


    Samantha was speechless.


    If he had too much to drink, he should have been brought home instead of to the office.


    As Harmony supported Timothy, she appeared to have a very clear purpose as she walked directly toward the lounge and entered.


    The door of the lounge was not closed, so Samantha could hear the soundsing from inside.


    She first heard Timothy plopping onto the bed, followed by Harmony’s extremely charming voice. “Rx, Tim. Take off your clothes...”


    Samantha’s hand clenched suddenly.


    Although she had seen Harmony walk out of Timothy’s office with a disheveled appearance and a ruddy face every day, she never would have thought that she would hear something so detailed!


    Were they so short of money to get a room?


    Aside from getting nauseous after listening to them, she also had the strong urge to smash their heads with a hammer!


    Samantha closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths before containing her impulses.


    She would not be able to control herself if she stayed any longer, so she sneaked forward softly towards the office door.


    Midway through, her footsteps froze suddenly when she heard Timothy make a low and somewhat suppressed gasping sound.


    She could no longer walk.


    At that moment, she felt very sad.


    Sadness came over her like a tidal wave and suffocated her.


    Samantha clenched her hands tightly and turned around little by little to peer into the lounge.
