Nigel‘s reply came almost instantaneously.

[Nigel: Don‘t worry, neither of my parents knows about me contacting you. I just wanted to tell you

some of the stuff I‘ve heard about you.]

Denise‘s entire body froze when she saw this. A split second later, something struck her…

The audio recording of Steven and Mr. and Mrs. Hughes, which she had heard from Luna‘s computer,

had come from one of Joshua and Luna‘s children.

Therefore, this boy that contacted her…was probably none other than that skilled hacker son of theirs.

At the thought of this, Denise quickly typed another reply. [Denise: What have you heard about me?]

[Nigel: Plenty of interesting stuff, but I will only tell you under one condition.] [Denise: What condition is

it?] [Nigel: You have to promise not to lay another finger on little Riley.]

Denise was silent for a moment when she saw this.

[Denise: Is that it?] [Nigel: Yes. I‘ve been keeping an eye on Riley all this while for fear that something

bad would happen to her, so when you tried to steal Riley but was stopped by your brother last night, I

saw everything. I don‘t know what‘s happening between you adults, but I sincerely hope you won‘t try

to harm Riley again.] [Nigel: I‘ve already contacted Uncle Thomas, and he‘s already on his way to

Saigen City. If you promise to hand Riley over to him, I‘ll tell you everything I know.]

Denise furrowed her brow at this.

[Denise: Is that it?]

She thought this little rascal would have asked her for something ludicrous, but to her surprise, all he

wanted was for her to hand Riley over.

To be frank, this was not a difficult condition for her at all.

Previously, according to her and Tina‘s plan, they intended to kidnap Riley and use her as a hostage to

threaten Thomas and Yannie. However, after discovering the Hughes family and Tina‘s true colors, she

quickly gave up on this idea.

The reason she had gone ahead and taken Riley from the hospital…was not because she wanted to

threaten Thomas and Yannie but because she did not want to burn her one and only bridge.

She knew that she had committed plenty of unforgivable mistakes, and all she wanted to do was make

Thomas owe her a favor so that he would show her mercy in the future.

Therefore, it was not impossible for her to agree to Nigel‘s terms, and besides…

Even if Steven had taken Riley away the night before and kept her under his care, she would

not be 100% safe. After all, Steven was still a part of the Hughes family, and since Mr. and Mrs.

Hughes had been watching Denise all the while, she would not be surprised if they had been doing the

same for Steven. According to their greedy natures, they would try to steal Riley when they found out

she was with Steven.

If that happened, things would take a turn for the worse.

All Denise wanted was for Thomas and Yannie to owe her a favor, not to create enemies.

Therefore, handing Riley over to Joshua was not only the best option for Riley but a reasonable choice

for both her and Steven.

Seeing that Denise was taking such a long time to reply, Nigel furrowed his brow and quickly typed

another message.

[Nigel: What‘s wrong? Are you not willing to accept these terms? Well, if you don‘t want to, I shall

destroy those recordings right now.] [Denise: Please don‘t!]

The chime of the notification had finally broken Denise out of her stupor. She paused, then typed a

reply.

[Denise: I agree with your condition, but how will you prove that you‘re indeed Joshua and Luna‘s son?

I wouldn‘t want to be tricked, either.]
