The zipper of the backpack was pulled open.
From her direction, she could vaguely see the contents inside.
Ghania Quinlan abruptly stopped turning around, her heartbeat involuntarily quickened.
She hesitated briefly for a few seconds, but the backpack with the open zipper in front of her was too tempting, as if her feet were nailed to the ground, unable to move.
There was no one here now, and if she hesitated any longer, soone might co back.
Ghania’s lips were almost bitten through by her, the sharp pain on her lips stimulated her, and her eyes slightly reddened from jealousy. After extre nervousness and hesitation, she slowly walked towards the backpack Nathalie Quinlan had placed in the lounge...
Three minutes later.
Ghania hurriedly left the lounge.
When she went out, she deliberately avoided the staff outside, sneaking out quietly for fear that soone would notice her.
Her urgent deanor didn’t ease even when she returned to the stands and reached her ticketed seat.
"Ghania, what’s wrong?" Emilia Sullivan noticed her face didn’t look good, concerned about her health, she placed a hand on her shoulder with worry.
Zayn Fisher was also here today.
Noticing Emilia’s words, he also saw that Ghania’s face was pale, and he couldn’t help but reach out to touch her forehead, concerned, "Why is your forehead so cold? Weren’t you going to the restroom? So soon?"
Ghania, hiding a huge secret, absent-mindedly dodged his hand, her gaze evasive, hurriedly saying, "Oh, there were too many people in line, so I ca back first."
"I see." Zayn didn’t think much of it, putting down his hand, his handso face quite outstanding in the crowd, "You can go again later then."
Ghania nodded, obediently walked to her seat, and sat down.
But her heartbeat thudded incessantly, as she clenched and unclenched the hem of her skirt, her knuckles turning white from the force.

On the other side, Nathalie Quinlan and Leo Dunn were talking with people from the international IT association for a mont, then returned to the lounge together.
As soon as she entered.
She glanced at the single shoulder bag she had left on the dressing table before she went out, her dark eyes instantly narrowed, coldly saying, "Soone’s touched my stuff."
"Uh..." Leo, walking ahead, had already entered. Hearing her words from behind, he imdiately broke into a cold sweat, sharply turning back to look at Nathalie, then following her line of sight to see the bag on the dressing table, "You an soone ca in?"
Nathalie adjusted her duckbill cap, walked in unhurriedly.
Leo couldn’t see any signs of damage to Nathalie’s bag, furrowing his brows, still a bit unbelieving, "We weren’t gone long, at most ten minutes, who would co in?"
"The zipper on your backpack looks fine, how did you know right away that soone touched it."
"...Because when I left, the zipper was open."
Nathalie had already walked to the dressing table, lowering her eyes, swiftly opening her own bag, checking the contents inside, then under Leo’s gaze, expressionless she said, "As I suspected, the hard drive in my bag is missing."
Why is the hard drive missing again!
Leo was utterly flabbergasted, not knowing what to make of the situations he kept encountering every day.
Having the experience from last ti, he was much more calm this ti around.
"I’ll go check the surveillance right away, see who ca in!" Although anxious, he imdiately reacted, intending to find the security personnel.
