Chapter 574: I Am Scared
Chapter 574: I Am Scared
But Cheyenne didn't give him a chance. As she held the book, she was surprised to find that it was the same book Sam had lent her before-the Bible. How could Master Sam be connected to Mr. Parry?
She raised her bright gaze and met Kelvin's deep-set eyes, which were also filled with contemplation. In that instant, they both thought of the same thing. "The computer!"
"What?"
Gordon looked at them puzzled. Behind the computer desk, Cheyenne sat on the chair while Kelvin stood behind her, his hands resting on the tabletop. Their posture seemed intimate, as if he were holding her in his arms.
Cheyenne's gaze was fixed on the computer screen, where her slender and fair hands swiftly typed on the keyboard. Her speed was so fast that some even doubted if she was randomly pressing keys. However, Kelvin and Gordon knew that she wasn't playing around. This was a secret website known only to private individuals, and she managed to open it in less than half a minute.
After browsing through Teagan's personal computer, aside from the usual official documents, there was a hidden folder named "AS" with a secrecy level classified as SSS.
Cheyenne tried various ways to access the folder, but changing networks and browsers proved futile, causing her to furrow her brows.
"Let me try," Kelvin suddenly spoke up.
Cheyenne's rosy lips slightly parted as she looked at him in surprise, expressing her doubts. "You... are you sure?"
As her words fell, Kelvin bent down and deliberately exhaled a warm breath near her ear, causing her delicate earlobe to tremble slightly. His laughter was deep and magnetic. "I think you can personally confirm that tonight. I'm free."
"Pff, shut up. Hurry up and unlock this folder."
Her sudden change in demeanor, becoming somewhat bossy, made her even more adorable in Kelvin's eyes. He couldn't help but want to pat her head.
However, he dismissed the thought in fear of making her angry.
He cleared his throat and fixed his gaze on the screen. His distinct and slender hands replaced Cheyenne's gentle fingers and quickly entered a series of codes. Cheyenne's almond-shaped eyes widened instantly, filled with surprise and disbelief, her red lips slightly apart.
Others might not understand or recognize what Kelvin was typing, but she immediately saw the shining "E7"! It was the abbreviation commonly used by "Excalibur7," the second-ranked individual on the leaderboard.
"You! You're actually... mmm."
"Hush."
Before she could finish her sentence, Kelvin suddenly lowered his head and gently captured her lips, stealing a kiss openly and unashamedly.
Others might have been too busy searching and not noticed, but Chris happened to turn his head and accidentally caught a glimpse of the scene from the corner of his eye.
He immediately turned his head back, staring embarrassedly at the pure white wall in front of him. Their intimate scene couldn't leave his mind.
Cheyenne resisted the urge to slap him because Kelvin still had a sense of "propriety." After her voice disappeared, he resumed his serious demeanor in a second.
"Let's continue!"
Kelvin smiled lightly, his triumphant gaze falling on those rosy and petal-like lips, faintly revealing his tooth marks.
They were truly exquisite.
He could act as if nothing had happened.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
But Cheyenne's heart was anything but calm. She remembered the crisis at the Foley Group over three years ago, when she worked together with "Excalibur7" to overcome the difficulties. He was the second- ranked individual on the leaderboard whom she greatly admired, and now he stood in front of her as Kelvin.
How did this guy, who had to deal with so many official duties every day, find time to be a hacker?
While she was lost in thought, Kelvin had already cracked the password for the folder and opened it. Inside was an electronic invitation.
With a familiar format and signature, she had an identical one-an invitation exclusive to guests of TWILIGHT.
Mr. Parry knew about TWILIGHT.
Cheyenne suddenly recalled that Master Sam had once mentioned that he and Teagan had met at a banquet.
Could it be that Teagan had hidden the address of TWILIGHT in the book and passed it into her own hands through Sam's involvement?
"Mr. Foley, we found something here," Chris suddenly exclaimed, attracting the attention of many people.
"What is it?"
"There seems to be a secret room here."
Everyone stood up and gathered around Chris. He stepped on the blanket on the floor and crouched down to lift it.
A tightly closed wooden door appeared before everyone's eyes.
"Force it open!"
Gordon immediately gave the order. Two young police officers behind him approached with iron bars and, after some effort, managed to open the secret room.
A dark room, approximately one meter in width and length, appeared before Cheyenne's eyes. She was about to go down when Kelvin grabbed her arm. The man looked at her with concern and said in a deep voice, "Let me go first, you follow me."
"I'm not scared."
Cheyenne's lip twitched. She had been to more dangerous places than this, so why would she be afraid of this small secret room?
Seeing her seemingly unconcerned
attitude, Kelvin's eyes, as deep as
ve
the ocean, reflected her figure. For a brief , Cheyenne mistakenly
t she was his whole world.
The slightly lowered eyelashes left a dark shadow on his cheek.
This feeling made her inexplicably flustered.
That sentence, "Cheyenne, but I'm scared," left her momentarily blank in her mind and stirred up an indescribable mix of emotions in her heart.
Her small fist clenched.
Fortunately, the basement was actually empty. Although it looked dim and lacked any light, when the lights were turned on, the scene inside was surprising. Typically, a basement would be filled with darkness and horror, but Teagan's basement was decorated like a suite in a romantic hotel.
There was a round-shaped bed, and the walls were adorned with various props for amusement.
In front of a mirror, there was a torn piece of women's clothing and a box of wigs.
Hmm?
Curiosity piqued, Cheyenne picked up a ball-shaped object resembling a large egg, looked around, and innocently asked, "What is this?"
Gordon's face immediately turned
red, and he stuttered for a while, unable to find the right words. "Cheyenne... Miss Lawrence, it's better if you don't know."
"Cheyenne..."
The object in her hand was suddenly snatched away. When Cheyenne raised her head, she saw Kelvin's cold and stern face, flushed with a mix of red and black. His deep-set eyes sparkled with a hint of light.
Kelvin threw the egg-shaped thing onto a nearby table and gritted his teeth as he whispered something in Cheyenne's ear.
At his words, Cheyenne blushed immediately.
Damn it! Mr. Parry turned out to be such a pervert!
Startled, Cheyenne quickly withdrew her hand, wiping it on her clothes as if it was dirty.
