Chapter 32
It was the weekend.
Violette and Reaves had arranged to meet at the company.
"Violette, we need to crack this safe as soon as possible. Ramsey has been pushing us for a response.
Right now, I don't dare tell him the truth, nor do I dare to lie... Without anything substantial, I'm really
out of steam!"
Violette nodded, "I wrote down some numbers last night, I think my father would've used these
numbers for the password. The key is how he combined them."
Reaves took the paper from her and glanced at the numbers, "Well, we better give it a shot then!"
The two of them entered the dark room, went to the front of the safe, and began to try combinations.
However, things didn't go as smoothly as they expected.
After countless failures, Violette frowned and sighed.
"Do you think Alexa would know?" she asked. "The password for my house is a combination of my
father and Alexa's birthdays. Before my father fell ill, he was always very attentive to Alexa."
Reaves shook his head, "If Alexa knew the value of our new system, she would definitely take the stuff
and leave first."
Violette had to change her approach, "Do you think there's a chance that whatever's in this safe has
already been taken?"
Reaves paled, "Impossible! There's dedicated surveillance here. I check it every day, nobody other
than us has been here."
Violette, "Oh... So without the password, we really can't open this safe? Apart from the numbers on the
paper, I really can't think of any other passwords."
Reaves paced back and forth in the room with a grim expression, "Well, it's not that we can't open the
safe. We can break it, if we really don't have the password. But destroying the safe may also damage
the stuff inside. It's still a big risk."
Violette didn't respond.
Reaves, "Let me think about it some more. If we really can't open it, we might have to break the safe."
Violette nodded thoughtfully, "Yes."
"Violette, do you know Elijah?" Reaves asked curiously.
Without hesitation, Violette shook her head, "No. If I knew him, I would've asked him for a loan a long
time ago."
"Oh... A friend of mine said he saw you entering a luxury villa area yesterday. Elijah lives there too."
Violette's cheeks flushed, "Oh... I did go to a luxury villa area yesterday. I have a classmate who lives
there. She needed me for something, so I went over."
"Oh, you have such a wealthy classmate?" Reaves asked in disbelief.
"Her family used to do well in business, but then they hit some hard times."
"Oh... Since we can't guess the password, why don't you head back first? I'll think about it some more."
"Alright, goodbye" Violette left the darkroom and the company.
After Violette left, Reaves stared at the paper she'd left behind for a while.
As the heir to the Dennis Group, could Violette really not know the password?
Reaves began to doubt her more and more.
After a while, he sent a message to Alexa.
Upon seeing the message, Alexa immediately called Reaves back, "You're saying Mr. Dennis has been
holding out on us? What do you mean?"
Reaves replied, "Mr. Dennis left the company to Violette. You really think Mr. Dennis would want to hurt
his own daughter? Alexa, I thought you were pretty clever, but you're a bit clueless on this one."
Hearing Reaves' hint, Alexa understood, "What did Mr. Dennis leave for Violette?!"
Reaves said, "A safe, a big one, with something very valuable inside. But he forgot to tell Violette the
password." Then Reaves decided to team up with Alexa, "Alexa, if you can tell me the password, I
promise to give you a cut after we get the goods."
"How much of a cut? If it's too small, I'm not in."
Reaves replied, "Haha, 20% max. Take it or leave it, it's not your stuff anyway."
"Alright! I'll work with you. How many digits is the password?"
"Six digits. I'll send you a picture later with the numbers Violette wrote down that are important to Blake,
along with the passwords we tried this afternoon that weren't correct. See if you can get any ideas from
it."Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
