Chapter 280 “Of course he has no idea what I‘m like. In fact, there‘s a lot that he doesn‘t know about me.”
Keith harrumphed coldly, a trace of smugness in his tone.
No one knew about his identity as a hacker, including Samuel. Oh, wait!
Memories started flooding into Keith‘s mind immediately.
Back when they were trying to shake Samuel‘s bodyguards off their car, Keith was forced to reveal his secret identity as a hacker to Tina and Kara.
“He doesn‘t know a lot of things about me, but you do. Will you tell him everything about me?” he questioned seriously with a slight frown on his face. “Of course not! Your secret‘s safe with me.” “I don‘t believe you.” Keith was still suspicious of Tina. She could only smile helplessly in return. “Then, what am I supposed to do in order to make you believe me?”
Keith thought for a moment. For some reason, he was reminded by the memory of Tina and Kara interacting with each other. He blurted out; “Let‘s make a pinky promise! If you ever lie to me, you‘ll have to swallow a thousand needles!” NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
Tina was speechless after hearing the request. ‘Isn‘t he the childish one here?‘
However, she chose not to say anything about it. Instead, she stuck out her pinky and tugged onto Keith‘s tinier finger as she promised to guard his secret.
“Now, do you believe me?” Tina asked in a tone that was clearly meant to comfort children.
For some reason, Keith didn‘t find her tone unpleasant despite his hatred for being coddled. Perhaps it was due to the fact that she had been taking care of him all this time. He knew that she was the only
person who would ever treat him with kindness.
“Hmph! I’ll believe you for now.” The boy turned his head away in embarrassment. “I have to go back to my room now. Have fun working.”
“Got it.”
Tina smiled helplessly in return. After escorting Keith out of her room, she returned to her desk and started working on the designs, Upon returning to his room, Keith quickly switched on his computer. He logged into the website meant for hackers and saw a few unread messages. “Boss, you‘re right! That Langford guy did investigate Linda! It‘s a good thing you gave me
instructions in advance. I drafted a fake profile on her and sent it to him! Also, even though you asked me not to pay close attention to that Langford guy‘s affairs to avoid being detected by him, I still discovered something. Lately, he issued a bounty with great rewards on a woman.” Arthur sent over a picture while adding, “Look at this picture! To me, she seems like a normal looking woman. She can‘t be the rumored homewrecker, right? Maybe she‘s just an ordinary thief.”
The moment Keith glanced at the picture, his expression turned grave. A sharp glint appeared in his eyes immediately. That picture was very blurry, and it was true that the woman on it looked very plain… However, Keith recognized the woman straightaway.
The woman on Samuel‘s bounty that promised great rewards to anyone who found her, also known as the alleged thief of the pigeon egg diamond ring, was in truth Linda the fashion designer, who was currently in a room downstairs. What...

What on earth was actually happening here? Various guesses and theories flitted past Keith‘s mind in a split second. Could it be that she had other motives in mind, hence her decision to treat him with kindness?
After all, it was insanely difficult for him to find someone who would be nice to him without asking for anything in return.
Keith‘s mind was soon cluttered with so many thoughts. The expression on his face grew darker and more thunderous.
Logically speaking, he shouldn‘t place his trust in a woman that he had just gotten to know for a short period of time.
But… But…
Despite having only spent a few days with Tina, Keith could clearly feel the gentle and kind aura radiating off Tina. Her daughter was a very friendly and energetic girl as well. Should he believe that woman? “Boss, should we interfere with this bounty?” Arthur, Keith‘s subordinate, messaged via the website.
As a young genius hacker, he couldn‘t wait to sow seeds of chaos in this world.
{ife was only fun that way, after all. Keith thought for a very long time before sending his reply.
