Chapter 348 Temptation and Desperation

(((Author's Note: Huhu sorry for the short chap. Don't worry though. The next chapter will be a little longer. I just don't know how longer, since I am not writing it yet...)))
"CEO Smith, what should we do about this?" Even though Andrea could see that her boss was suffering right now, she had no choice but to consult the matter about the envelope to him.
"Hah?" CEO Smith, whose face was still covered with tears, blearily asked this question as he stared at Andrea.
"CEO Smith! Did you even hear what we are talking about?" Andrea could not help but snap as she saw her boss' delayed reaction. "Come on! Our enemies just gave us a message! Are you even listening to us?"
"Well um yes, I am listening to you two…" CEO Smith slowly replied as he wiped his tears. "So you are asking if we should open the envelope?"
"Yes, so what should we do about this?" Andrea replied as she looked at the golden envelope with a wary look. "Do you want to open the envelope or not?"
Andrea knew that right now, it was her boss, CEO Smith, that has the say on whether they can open the golden envelope or not, since he currently has the highest position here in their company.
If their boss wants to destroy the envelope, Andrea will easily destroy it. But if he wants it opened, Andrea will have no choice but to open it.
Of course, if it was Andrea who will be asked, she will definitely not open the envelope.
After all, these rebels''tip' could be most likely a trap, which will just endanger many of her comrades.
"Boss, you should know that these rebels are opportunistic sons of b***es." Andrea thought to herself as she waited for CEO Smith to give his answer. "Don't give them the opportunity to deal more damage on us!"
Andrea knew that even if her boss was a sobbing mess right now, his mind should still be in a sound state. There should be no way that he will open the envelope, with all the risks associated with it.
But unfortunately for Andrea, her boss' reply was the one that she was fearing to her.
"Umm… I think we should open it." CEO Smith said as he looked at the golden envelope with a hungry look. "Since our agents can't find anything, then we just have to rely on this envelope…'
"Yes! I think we should open it!" The young man who gave the envelope shouted out as he stared at the golden envelope with a fervent gaze. "If… if these rebels are these conceited to tell us their location, then of course we should know about it! Hahaha! This will surley lead to their downfall!"
"I agree with this young man." CEO Smith said as he shakily stood up from his seat. He continued drying his face with tissues as he took a deep breath. "Since we do not have any leads right now, we have no choice but to just look at this message…"
"Yes CEO! That's how we should do this!"
"Idiots!" After she heard what these two men were talking, Andrea almost blew up as she gave a death glare to the two. "What if this message was just a trap against us? What if the location that they will give us is not the real place, and it was just a deadly trap? Are you really desperate to believe something like this? CEO Smith, please use your mind properly!"
"…"
Andrea then continued her tirade as she saw her boss' face go pale.
"CEO Smith, its not only the Young Mistress' life that are in danger here. Even our TimeMaster comrades will have to risk their life later! If you carelessly walk into a trap made by these rebels, you will put many of our comrades in mortal danger!"
"…"
"Please CEO Smith, reconsider this!" Andrea clenched her fists at this point, as she resisted the urge to punch her boss in his face. "I know that you want to make a contribution for the Big Boss, but believing in a ploy like this by our enemies is not the right way to do things! Please, please resist the temptation…"
"Andrea, you do not know how much pressure lies on my shoulders right now." CEO Smith said as he snatched the envelope away from Andrea's grasp. "All the other CEO's are waiting for the results of my investigation. Not only that, but even the Elders and many stockholders are pushing me to find any leads for our Young Mistress! Andrea, can you imagine the stress that I am having right now? Can you imagine all the threats that were given to me these past 7 days? Can you imagine all of that?'
"CEO Smith…"
"Andrea, please, please just let me open this." CEO Smith said as he tightened his hold on the envelope with this trembling hands. "This… this is my only hope to survive. If I don't do this, everything that I worked for will all disappear!"
"…"
Andrea tried to think of a good argument to persuade her boss, but she was unable to think of any, after she saw the desperate look on her boss' face.
"Ah." At this point, Andrea realized that no matter what she did, she will be unable to change her boss' mind.
At the moment that the golden envelope has arrived, her boss' mind has already decided to give in to the temptation.
He had already decided to embark on this perilous path, with no regards for the consequences that it might bring.
This, this is how desperate CEO Smith is right now.
"CEO…" A sad smile appeared on Andrea's face, as she could only watch helplessly as her boss started to peel the seal on the golden envelope.
"Rip…"
A ripping sound echoed inside the room, as the golden envelope was fully shredded by CEO Smith into pieces.
A blood-red paper then fell out from the remains of the envelope, falling straight towards CEO Smith's outstretched hand.
"CEO Smith, I wish you luck later." This was all that Andrea could only say as her boss started reading the words written on the red paper. "I hope that the risk that you just took… will be all worth it."
