The flash drive

"Everything will fall into place. I just need the right time to expose their crimes." She whispered with a smirk and opened the door. She then entered the secret room in her office.

She shook her head. When she saw a keypad inside. A simple keypad and the rest was just a small space. A little room not even big enough for a single person.

"I was so paranoid why so many entrances geez." She mumbled and her lips twitched.

*******

She pressed on the correct numbers which opened to another small fingerprint scanner. She rolled her eyes and pressed her pinky into the scanner. Finally, another door opened and gave away the luxurious bedroom inside.

Instead of a clean and mesmerizing bedroom, Genesis met with a disaster. 'I should have cleaned this place up before leaving.' She thought. Although the room still looked luxurious there was no denying the mess inside it. The bedsheets were disorganized and the pillows were scattered across the floor. A base was broken into pieces and even clothes were all over the room. Genesis closed her eyes for a second and then opened them. She rubbed her temple as memories of her past slowly came back to her.

Even if she doesn't want to remember the ridiculous decisions she made in the past because of her broken heart and terrible loss of her parents it still isn't something she can easily forget. Back then she had suffered alone in this room and the last time she had entered it she had completely trashed the place.

She had almost forgotten about this secret room. She didn't waste any time and quickly started searching for what she was looking for. Since she hadn't been able to find evidence that what Andrew told her is the truth and he didn't tell her exactly how he got that information then she would just have to squeeze it out of him one way or the other.

There was another thing that caught her attention. 'How is Aiden involved in this? What did Andrew mean by not trusting the Millers?' She wondered. She went through her wardrobe and took out a bunch of expensive clothes. There was nothing inside and she had made an even bigger mess. She sighed and walked inside the bedroom.

The mirror had shattered into pieces and towels were all over the floor. "Tsk~" She carefully entered and looked on the cupboards. She looked around the makeup and skincare products displayed. Between all the sink care products only one item was odd. A red lipstick from a famous brand laid in between them. "Finally," Genesis mumbled and took it with her.

She turned the lipstick around and opened the tap from the bottom. She met with a flash drive. Once she was sure the flash drive was the correct one she placed it back inside and closed the lipstick. She put in her purse and exited the room.

'I'll come back and fix this mess myself later.' She thought with a sigh. She closed the doors and all the openings. She then went towards her desk. It was empty and there were only pencils and pens on it. She opened the drawer and took out a laptop from it.

She then carried it in her arms and exited the office. The office remained unlocked and unsupervised, except for the cleaners that entered it no one ever did. Not even the laptop contained any information. It was shut down and everything was unimportant. Except for the items Genesis hid in the secret room nothing valuable that may benefit her enemies was left inside.

But who would think that she would carelessly leave important information in her office? Exactly no one would. That's why she did it.

She walked out and bid everyone goodbye. All of them were startled as to why she was socializing with them. Two years ago this would have never taken place.

Genesis put her mask back on when she entered the elevator and she exited the building. She was like a ghost that no one saw. The day in SY Industries went by as normal. If they would have known that their lady boss had visited the building everyone would have been shaken. They were all aware that Genesis left her post and that it is not yet sure when she will come back. This is just common news to them.

Of course, the public has no idea about it because they are all under very strict contracts with SY Industries. If any rumor or any kind of information is spread to the outside world. He or she would face grave consequences.

….

Genesis entered ILG International and greeted the receptionist like every normal day. She took the elevator back to the top floor and sat on her desk. She took a small stack of files that were on her desk and she carried them over inside Aiden's office.

She knew he was not there so she entered freely and relaxed. She placed the files down and got to work.

Around 40 minutes into her work Aiden had come back. She looked up at him with a serious expression and got up. " Sir I have a few questions on our newest project with SY Industries." She told him. Noticing her professional behavior Aiden who was about to tease her sighed and nodded his head. "Let me hear it." He told her and walked towards the rack where his coat was placed.

He took off his suit jacket and placed it on the rack, leaving him in only his shirt and tie. He proceeded to take off his tie and listened attentively to what Genesis spoke.

If she weren't focused on what she was saying Genesis would have surely taken the time to admire his profile. She swallowed and started speaking again.

"I noticed that there is a decrease in sales of our latest product. I know that this new project will be completely focused on our latest product but why not merge it with a new one?" Genesis asked.

Aiden hummed. He sat down in the corner of his desk and tapped his fingers on it. "Continue." He told her.

Genesis walked towards him and handed him the file she was reading earlier. "Why not upgrade our product instead of making a new one? I noticed most of the plans are still being discussed, the designs for the new piece of jewelry is yet to be modified. It is pretty similar to our last piece as well. If we were to merge both ideas it will not only increase our sales but we can even create a trending set of jewelry for not only our customers but celebrities as well." Genesis suggested seriously and confidently.

"Once the fans see their idols wearing this new set they will surely be encouraged to buy more of our products and the attention will be all on us," Genesis concluded. She rested her voice and observed his facial expressions to understand whether he might agree or not.

Aiden had a small frown. " That's a good idea, assistant Gen. But maybe we should work on just one celebrity instead. Instead of using our usual models, we should just pick one hot celebrity that has never sponsored our product before" He suggested and gave the file back to her. Genesis nodded and reached out to take the file back but he stopped her. He leaned in until their faces were only inches apart.

"That way the attention will be truly on us." He whispered.
