out of a drawer and handed it to her. Though speechless, she took it. Seeing how he didn’t stop her from breaking into his company secrets, she switched it on.Then, he passed her the pen drive. After opening the files, both of them started cracking the code.Apart from the tapping on the keyboards, nothing else could be heard.Both of them were intensely focused on their screens.
