The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 673

"I don’t!"

Dorothy had reached her breaking point.

He was clearly trying to exploit the situation!

"So, do you think I'm not as handsome as Everett, not as wealthy?" The abrupt change in his demeanor threw her off.

"Um... shouldn’t we be avoiding this topic? Byte 7, I asked for your help to retrieve data from my flash drive. This is a transaction between us. I don't want to drag personal matters into it."

Byte 7 seemed to straighten up a bit, his voice regaining some of its usual tone.

"I've recovered most of the footage on the flash drive, but let me tell you straight. If you think you can use this to take down the Lopez Corporation, you're dreaming."

"That's my concern to handle."

"But if I decide to help you, that changes everything." Byte 7's words came out slowly, deliberately, "This footage is just part of the story. The data on the flash drive isn't comprehensive. If I'm not mistaken, there should be other flash drives out there, which you haven't gotten your hands on, right?"

"They've all been destroyed. This is my last hope."

Dorothy's eyes dimmed with despair.

She had not seen the footage from the drive yet, so she had no idea if it was enough to turn the tables and win her case!

"Destroyed doesn't mean it can't be recovered."

Dorothy's heart skipped a beat. "What do you mean? Even without the original, it's possible?"

"Once surveillance footage like this is recorded, it leaves traces online. I took your flash drive, found the code for that camera, hacked into the company that manages the surveillance, and accessed their core database. They're at my mercy now."

Dorothy stood up so fast her chair nearly toppled over!

"So, you got all the footage?"

"Mhm." Byte 7 chuckled, "So, do you want to date me now?"

"No."

"Then you don't want to see the full footage?"
