Twins Secret (Tiffany)

Chapter 271 Making Friends Carelessly Tiffany didn't show a hint of guilt as she stared directly into Edmund's eyes. They locked eyes for several seconds before Edmund finally looked away, casting a cold, angry glare at Tiffany.

"You better not letfind out what you've been up to! Tiffany, I don't want you distracted by anything else right now. Fix that program immediately and bring it to my office!" Edmund didn't want to waste any more time. He believed that with Tiffany's skills, she should be able to crack the code quickly instead of dragging it out.

He didn't have much tleft as the police had raided the underground venue, and many of the bosses were already unhappy.

They were starting to talk about pulling their stocks and stopping their investments in the company.

Edmund needed to produce a satisfactory program and results to appease them.

"Got it." Tiffany nodded silently and left the office, with Leon following her.

Steven watched Tiffany leave, then glanced at Edmund, giving a silly smile.

"Since Tiffany's gone, I'll head out too." Edmund didn't even spare Steven a glance, and Steven wisely left.

Now, only Edmund and Lauren were left in the office, staring at each other.

Edmund's gaze inadvertently fell on the safe, and he began to question Lauren. "Lauren, did you mess with my safe the last tyou were in my office?" "Yes." Lauren didn't bother to hide it anymore because she knew there was no point in lying.

Edmund hadn't confronted her or caused trouble last tbecause nothing was missing fro the safe.

Hearing Lauren's honest answer, Edmund smiled, then his face darkened. He slammed his hand on the desk, his angry eyes sweeping over Lauren, giving her a cold, warning look.

"Lauren, you better not forget who went through all the trouble to create you and who gave you everything! Don't forget your roots! You are my first robot creation, my proudest work. Lauren, you should know that I have given you a lot of love and attention. Don't do anything to disappoint or upset me, or I will have to let you go..." What started as a seemingly ordinary speech grew more oppressive as Edmund continued, clearly threatening Lauren.

He was making it clear that since he could create her, he could also destroy her.

If he wanted, Lauren could completely disappear from this world.

Edmund used this threat because he knew Lauren wanted to live as a real human. She wanted to survive and didn't want others to know her identity. If people found out she was a robot, she would be seen as an outcast.

Lauren's face turned pale, and she nodded stiffly.

Seeing that, Edmund immediately smiled. He stood up, walked over to Lauren, and patted her shoulder.

"I knew you were the most obedient. Now go. There are a few more projects I need you to complete, and also deliver sgifts to those bosses. I'll send the details to your office. Go prepare." "Yes, boss." Lauren's face remained expressionless, her voice steady and devoid of emotion.

Afterward.

Edmund went to the warehouse again. He pushed open the door and saw Ulysses lying on the ground, writhing in pain. He couldn't help but laugh.

But his smile was terrifying, his face full of wrinkles, giving off a disgusting vibe.

Just a heads up: is the only place to read the complete version of this book for free. Don't miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey! "What are you doing here?" Ulysses asked coldly.

Edmund stepped closer, standing in front of Ulysses, grabbed his chin, and spoke in a particularly serious tone.

"Ulysses, you're gonna be my slave soon. And then you'll learn the hard way what happens when you betray me! You'll always be nothing but trash!" Edmund continued his mockery, "You are no match for Leon, just an illegitimate child of the Cooper Family. Now, even your Warren Corporation is on the brink of collapse. When I brought you back to the country, I thought if you could defeat Leon and take over the Cooper group, you might be useful to me. But it turns out, an illegitimate child is just that, you can't even compare to a single hair on Leon's head! So, I don't need a waste like you!" Every word Edmund said was meant to belittle Ulysses, to humiliate him.

In the past, Ulysses would have cared deeply and couldn't stand being told he was inferior to Leon.

But after spending twith Leon and Tiffany, he realized it was his own biased thinking that complicated things. Leon was genuinely excellent, and he should be proud to have such a brother, not trying to fight him.

So now, Edmund's words no longer affected Ulysses. However...

One thing Edmund said caught Ulysses' attention.

The Warren Corporation was in trouble.

He hadn't been in the country, away from Harmony City for stime. Could someone have targeted the Warren Corporation? Despite not being as prominent as the Cooper group, the Warren Corporation was still a top-tier company in Harmony City. Who would deliberately cause trouble for it? A flash of confusion crossed Ulysses' eyes. He shook his head, making Edmund's hand fall away.

"What did you do to the Warren Corporation?" Ulysses demanded.

No matter what, the Warren Corporation was his creation built from the ground up with his efforts. It En was his life's work.

"I didn't do anything. It's just that in someone has a big ambition, big enough to want to swallow all the NO To want to companies. And his first target is your Warren Corporation. Ulysses, you just made the wrong friends." Hearing Edmund's words, Ulysses' mind exploded. Wrong friends? If it was someone from Harmony City, the only friend he had there was Ralph.

He had felt a kinship with Ralph, so after researching Ralph's background, he chose to help him. Ralph was also an illegitimate child of the Larson family, though Derek had acknowledged him. But in Derek's eyes, no matter how hard Ralph worked, it was always to pave the way for Miguel. So Ulysses felt they were alike, which was why he initially approached Ralph.

But he never expected Ralph to choose the spath as Derek, engaging in illegal activities. Ulysses had plotted against Leon and Tiffany, but he never wanted to cross that line.

When he found out Ralph was doing illegal things to attractivestment, Bid figh they had a big fight and parted ways. Later.

Ulysses went abroad.

But before he left, he hadn't seen Ralph again.

So, had Ralph been planning to take over the Warren Corporation all this time?
