Chapter 144 Finding Flora Steven couldn't help but laugh when he heard what Herbert said.
Herbert felt uneasy under Steven's gaze and asked, confused, "Why are you suddenly asking about the cameras?" "With cameras, I can show off my skills. Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Steven, one of the top hackers in the world. Nice to meet you." Steven extended his hand politely to introduce himself to Herbert.
He still hadn't kicked his narcissistic habit.
But when Herbert heard this, his face darkened. He didn't dare to shake hands and wished he could cut the power to the surveillance and delete those videos.
Tiffany noticed the fear in Herbert's eyes and deliberately applied pressure.
"If you cclean now, you might save yourself strouble." "Cclean about what? I don't understand what you're saying, Miss Grey. If you keep causing trouble, I'll call the police. You're not welchere. Please leave with your friends." Herbert was panicking inside, desperately denying his actions.
He instinctively wanted to kick them out, but Tiffany and her group didn't seem to be in a hurry this time. Herbert snapped back to reality and stared intently at Steven.
He wondered if Steven could operate remotely without needing the local surveillance.
Steven read Herbert's thoughts and kindly explained, "Oh, it waswho found out about your dirty dealings with the Larson Corporation. I may not have concrete evidence now, but that doesn't mean you can continue to get away with it." Steven smiled easily, but Herbert shuddered in fear.
Herbert wanted to slap himself hard. Thinking back to Miguel's initial shock, he regretted it. Why did he have to kidnap Flora? Why couldn't he leave Flora alone? If it weren't for that, Tiffany and her group wouldn't have cafter him.
But it was too late for regrets now.
This matter wouldn't be easily resolved.

Aren't you afraid of their retaliation?" Herbert was ready to give up. After all, he was just an accomplice. If things went south, he would protect himself and expose the Larson Corporation.
"I just want to know where Flora is." Tiffany looked at him coldly, giving Herbert one last chance to cclean.
Herbert gritted his teeth and said nothing.
He was betting that Steven didn't have the skills and that Tiffany and her group had no evidence. Even if they knew about the orphanage's connection with the Larson Corporation, so what? Without evidence, no one would believe them.
"Steven, it's all yours." Tiffany knew Herbert was still being stubborn and didn't want to waste any more time. "Don't worry, we'll have news about Flora soon." Steven glanced at the cameras around them, took out his phone, and logged into his hacker site.
Herbert's heart was in his throat.
Did he bet wrong? Steven started searching for clues about Flora in the surveillance footage.
But it would take stime.
Everyone waited, while Herbert kept wiping the cold sweat from his forehead. "Tiffany!" Ralph's voice called from behind, and everyone turned to look at him. Herbert had seen Ralph before and was delighted, thinking Ralph was there to help him.
"Mr. Larson, thank goodness you're here. These people are causing trouble. We need to..." Before Herbert could finish, Ralph pushed him aside and walked straight to Tiffany. Tiffany stayed silent, her face cold as ice.

"Tiffany, I'll take you to find Flora," Ralph said, out of breath but looking serious. Tiffany was taken aback. Sophia and Emery beside her also found it hard to believe.
This was the Larson Corporation's transaction point. Was Ralph really going to expose it? Steven put away his phone and pointed to the building behind the office, speaking confidently, "She's over there." "That's right," Ralph confirmed, nodding as soon as Steven spoke.
Tiffany couldn't wait. She led the way, praying Flora was unharmed.
Ralph was about to follow them when Herbert grabbed his arm.
"Mr. Larson, what do you mean? Are you going to help Miss Grey and her group? Don't forget, this is the Larson Corporation..." Ralph cut him off with a cold glance and shook off Herbert's hand.
"What does that have to do with me?" Ralph's cold voice questioned.
Herbert was stunned, realizing Ralph had betrayed the Larson Corporation! Tiffany and her group reached the building but couldn't find Flora anywhere. "Didn't you say Flora was here? Why can't we find her?" Tiffany was already on edge due to Flora's disappearance and couldn't stay calm.
Knowing the location but not finding Flora made her even more anxious.
There were no cameras nearby.
Steven had seen footage of Herbert bringing the children to this place.

They saw many children who had lost their parents and were now suffering in this place.
Ralph took a key from the corner and unlocked the cage.
Flora ran out first, throwing herself into Tiffany's arms, her voice breaking into sobs.
"Mommy, I missed you so much." Even though they had only been apart for a short time, Flora cried.
Being in such a place was terrifying.
"I'm sorry, it's Mommy's fault. I didn't protect you and let the bad people take you." Tiffany held Flora tightly, unwilling to let go.
Thankfully, Flora was safe.
Otherwise, Tiffany wouldn't have been able to bear it.
The others examined the children's wounds. Many were beaten badly.
Older children had needle marks on their arms, having been drawn blood multiple times.
The children couldn't distinguish between good and bad. Seeing Tiffany and her group,
they were scared, huddling in the corners, refusing to cout, and resisting their approach. Flora wiped her tears and looked at the children with red eyes.
"Don't be afraid. We are here to save you." The children looked at them skeptically. One child, crying, asked fearfully, "Are you going to trick us like bad Herbert, take us out to draw blood, and sell us?"
