Prev Chapter Next Chapter

Tim brought Maia out and quickly bundled Maia into the car. Then he also got into the car, took out his

phone, and dialed a phone number.

"Encrypt all my files."

Maia was a little confused when she heard his words.

"Tim, what's going on?"

"Don't speak."

The people on the phone did not respond. Tim said again.

"Did you hear what I said?"

Samuel held the phone, "That's the way you ask for help?"

"Samuel, don't be too arrogant! I'm just calling you because of your computer skills!"

Tim was depressed.

But Samuel smiled, "Yeah, you can go find someone else. You don't need to call me."

"Sure, I won't ask you anymore."

Tim hung up the phone.

Maia heard Samuel's name and asked, "Isn't Samuel Lady Bush's husband? Is he awake?"

"You also wish he won't wake up for the rest of his life, right? He's so unkind and not easy to get along

with. I wish he were still not awake."

Tim picked up the phone again and dialed Lucas.

"Lucas, could you do me a favor?"

They haven't seen each other for a long time. Tim called him suddenly and his tone was so gentle that

Luca raised his vigilance.

"What do you want?"

"Help me encrypt all the files, okay?"

Lucas immediately relaxed.

"What benefits can I get?"

"What benefits do you want?"

Lucas' chin rested on his hand, "I haven't decided yet. Can you give me anything I want?"

"Yes, except for my wife and my own life."

"Bingo! I've already recorded it. You can't go back on your word. I'll ask you for it later."

The corner of Tim's mouth twitched.

"Like father, like son. You are both so treacherous."

"Uncle Tim, in fact, I inherit more from my mother. Do you think my mother is treacherous? I have to tell

her."

"Lucas!"

Tim really wanted to strangle this brat to death.

"Oh, I'm deaf. What if I can't play with the computer?"

Tim tried to calm himself down.

Compared to Samuel, Lucas was relatively more tractable.

He took more than a dozen deep breaths and said with a smile, "Good boy, I know you are the best. Do

me a favor, okay?"

"Uncle Tim, don't be like that. I get goosebumps."

Lucas did not appreciate it at all. He drove Tim mad.

Tim didn't understand why a woman like Nicole got such a son.

Tim panted heavily.

Lucas stopped teasing him and hurriedly said, "Forget it, I don't want anyone to say that I'm bullying an

old man."

"Old man? Lucas, do you think I don't dare to hit you?"

"I will tell my mommy!"

"Are you a man? Lucas, are you ashamed?"

"Nicole, I'm a boy, not a man. It's you who make a fuss about the trifles with me. Is this really

necessary?" Lucas said confidently.

Tim was exhausted.

Tim kept making fun of him. He felt that their talks were completely off the point.

"I hang up."

Tim felt he must have been insane to call them. He was bringing trouble on himself.

However, he really couldn't find anyone else who were skilled at computer.

Just as Tim was about to hang up, Lucas smiled and said, "OK, it's done. Your files are secured unless

someone gets a world-class hacker."

Tim was shocked for a moment and let out a sigh of relief.

"Thank you. Lucas."

"Just remember what you owe me."

Lucas hung up after that.

Hearing all of this, Maia looked at Tim in surprise and asked, "Who is this?"

"Nicole's son."

"Lady Bush has a son?"

Maia's sudden loud voice startled Tim.

"Is it strange? She's already married. Have no children is stranger. What's that expression on your

face?"

"But Lady Bush looks very young."

"She's almost thirty years old and no longer young."

Tim did not realize that he was no longer partial to Nicole. It seemed that when he was chatting with

Maia, they were one.

Maia was shocked for a moment. She didn't expect Tim to say this so casually.

Didn't he love Nicole?

How could he be so unperturbed to say that Nicole had a son? He looked not sad and it seemed that

he didn't mind it at all.

Maia couldn't understand Tim.

Tim did not care what Maia was thinking. He whispered, "Fasten your seat belt. Let's go back to the

hotel."

"Not going back to the hospital?"

"No."

Tim started the car.

Although Maia didn't know why, she still didn't say anything. She was used to listening to Tim.

They found a hotel nearby to stay at.

Maia was a little shy that Tim asked for only one room.

"Tim, I can get another room."

"What are you saying? Are there any lovers who get two rooms?"

Tim's words made Maia shyer.

"We are not real lovers. We're fake."

"Who told you that? Hurry up and come in."

Tim dragged Maia into the room.

Maia was nervous immediately.

"Tim, I'm not a casual woman!"

Tim was shocked for a moment and said, "Do I look like a casual man?"

"Yes!"

Maia quickly nodded and saw Tim's gloomy face.

"Say it again, do I look like?"

Maia shut up.

She was not an idiot. He was obviously going to be angry now. If she really angered him, she was

afraid that he would sleep with her today.

Seeing Maia frightened to such an extent, Tim was depressed.

Was he that despicable?

"You sleep in bed and I sleep on the sofa. Do you have any objections?"

Maia hurriedly shook her head.

"I'm going out."

"Where are you going?"

Maia grabbed Tim's arm, and then felt a little embarrassed, so she quickly let go of his hand.

"I just want to ask if I could call you later."

"Sure."

Tim's voice unconsciously softened.

"I'm going out for a walk. If you have time, come with me. We could have dinner together."

"That's right. We haven't eaten dinner yet. Wait for me. I'll change my clothes. This dress isn't very

comfortable."

Maia went in to change her clothes.

After a while Maia came out. Tim felt that Maia in ordinary clothes looked better.

They walked along the road, then Tim took a taxi and they went to the restaurant.

This restaurant was a little close to the hospital where Maia has been in.

Maia asked curiously, "Why do we stay at that hotel since we have dinner here?"

"Let's eat and talk later."

Tim did not answer and asked Maia to order.

Maia was curious, but she didn't ask anymore. She ordered some dishes and saw Tim staring outside.

She followed his gaze.

"What are you looking at?"

"Do you see those people?"

Tim pointed at some people near the hospital.

Maia nodded, "I see. What's wrong? Aren't there people selling things outside the hospital every day?"

"They are not sellers. If my guess is correct, your uncle sent them here."

"What? Impossible!"

Maia denied it.

"Why?"

Tim looked at her.

Maia shook her head, "Uncle Jase and my father are best friends and comrades. He is very kind. He

wanted to adopt us after my parents passed away. We didn't want to implicate him, so we didn't agree.

He loves us so much. Why did he send someone over?"

"That's right. But why didn't he tell you who went on the mission with your parents? Why hasn't he

contacted you for so many years? Why did he sent someone to spy on us? Can you answer?"

Maia was shocked.

"Maybe he thinks I'm too stubborn, so..."

"Maia, do you believe that?"

Maia fell silence.

"Are you suspecting my uncle? Why?"

"Out of instinct, a veteran soldier's instinct. But I'm still searching for evidence. Now we have no choice

but to wait."

Tim's words caused Maia some pain.

"Evidence? How are you going to collect the evidences?"

"Maia, I have my way. Your parents' mission must have been top secret. Apart from the officers who

were sent back then, only the comrades who went the mission with your parents knew about that. Now

that your parents have passed away, this case has been a mystery. It will be sealed up unless we find

new clues. Perhaps your uncle will be a breakthrough."

Tim said quietly.

Maia remained silent.

Tim found that Maia's expression was not very good.

Perhaps Jase was really important to Maia. He was her parents' best friend. She did not want to

believe that Jase had something to do with her parents' case.

However, looking at the people in front of her and listening to Tim's words, she didn't know whether she

should believe her uncle.

At this moment, Tim's phone rang, and Maia's nerves immediately tensed up. She looked straight at

Tim.
