"Hmph, that clueless woman, all her scheming amounts to nothing. She has no idea that Arlen's playing for our team!"
Eunice watched their retreating figures with a curious glint in her eye. Although she didn't have any concrete evidence to reveal who the mole really was, the sight of the trio ascending the stairs together gave her a strong hunch that the traitor wasn't acting alone.
"Arlen, what did that woman say to you earlier?" Calvin whispered urgently as they reached the top of the staircase. "How much does she really know?"
"She blabbed a whole lot of nonsense at first, nothing of value. But then she handed me this USB drive, claimed all the secrets were on it."
Arlen pushed open the door to the study and booted up the computer, plugging in the USB drive.
There it was—an encrypted folder!
Arlen typed in '123456', but the password was incorrect. He tried again—same result.
