Meanwhile, Ashley sat in the back seat of the car, giggling to herself with her phone in hand and an earbud in her ear, watching the entire scene unfold at Black Dragon Corporation.
Red and Tank, seated up front, glanced back at her.
She had been giggling as though she were watching something hilarious online. They exchanged a look and shrugged, having learned by now to simply let her be. They had seen the perks — and they had no intention of losing them.
As for Ashley, her focus stayed fixed on Lucian.
The modified voice everyone heard in the meeting had been pre-recorded, but the CCTV footage was something Ashley was controlling in real time from her phone. Having already breached the company's security system, manipulating it remotely was almost trivially easy.
Her smile deepened as she recalled how the whole thing had come together.
