After leaving the X Bureau, Jared glanced at Tina. "Don't you suspect Linden could be the one who went after
your master back then?"
Master Tam had been evading the pursuit of the hidden families for many years. Given Linden's high position
within the X Bureau and his connections within the hidden families, he could easily find a person.
The person who pursued Master Tam back then could very well have been sent by Linden.
Tina nodded. "Of course | suspect it, but | suspect more that Linden might have other motives."
Jared hummed in agreement. "Indeed, he has other motives."
Master Tam's only friend was Tina's mother, Natalie!
These matters were interconnected in complicated ways.
Master Tam had been presumed dead for many years, so why was Linden suddenly looking for him now? And
why approach Tina?

Such strange behavior was indeed suspicious.
Jared maneuvered the steering wheel. "You make sense. Where to next? Want to grab sbarbecue?" There
was a new barbecue restaurant with good reviews that Jared had wanted to take Tina to for a while.
Tina pulled out her phone and dialed Master Tam. "Master, we're treating you to barbecue, are you coming?"
Master Tam would surely attend.
His favorite was grilled brisket!
Jared's lips curved slightly. Tina was setting another trap for Master Tam.
Soon, the three of them met at the barbecue restaurant.
"You little rascal, why the sudden generosity? Is there another bad idea waiting for me?" Master Tam knew his
disciple too well; she wouldn't treat him to a meal without an ulterior motive. Tina placed the brisket on the grill.
"Master Tam Solomon, do you know Linden?"

Tina had never addressed Master Tam as Master Tam Solomon, which startled him since it had been a long time
since he last heard his full name. He paused for a moment before remembering that it was indeed his name.
"You impudent girl!" Master Tam chided, tapping open the tongs Tina was using on the brisket with his
chopsticks, infusing a bit of his inner strength into the motion, causing Tina to feel a numbness in her limbs.
Yet Tina did not let go, demanding, "Tell me, do you know Linden Shaw?" Master Tam pursed his lips, enduring for
the sake of the brisket. "I don't know any Linden Shaw, but | knew his grandfather. The Shaw family are nothing
but lackeys. Are you happy now? The meat will overcook!"
Only then did Tina release her grip, and Master Tam quickly snatched away the brisket, fearing she might change
her mind. "Today, Linden ctowith all the files regarding the Solomon family's disappearance," Tina
stated calmly. Master Tam was taken aback, his eating slowing down.
Jared silently handed him a glass of carrot juice, which Tina had specifically requested. Master Tam had a habit of
drinking carrot juice when he felt overwhelmed or burdened. He would say it was to replenish his vitamins. When
Master Tam had faked his own death, he had almost chewed on raw carrots.
He quickly finished the brisket and downed the carrot juice Jared offered. "What does he want with me? To have
his fortune told?" Master Tam's attempt at levity did not escape Tina, who knew well the pain in her master's
heart. His family had vanished overnight, leaving no trace, as if evaporated from this world, and he had only
been twenty at the time, just coming of age. How could he accept that? Meanwhile, the culprits lived freely,
prospering ever more, even sdistant relatives becoming wealthy magnates in Ashbury.

the grill. "Master, | want to understand what really happened back then, so | can know what to do. And Linden,
there's something very wrong with him. | suspect he might be the one who drove my mother to suicide."
Master Tam pressed his lips together, "Didn't you talk a lot with your Uncle Brandon recently? Didn't he mention
anything about my past?"
"That's exactly why | want to know more about what happened," Tina replied, her gaze steadfast on Master Tam.
He sighed, "I knew you wouldn't let it go. But honestly, | don't know exactly what happened either."
After swallowing another piece of brisket, Master Tam set down his chopsticks. "When the incident occurred, |
wasn't home."
"All I know is that my father had received a commission from several prominent family heads among the hidden
families, asking him to predict the future developments of their clans. It was just to set their minds at ease."
"Such commissions were common, as our family dealt in such matters, and the more flourishing the family, the
more they believed in it. My father accepted the commission."
"But that one fortune-telling session turned out unfavorably. My father foresaw that the hidden families would
face a great calamity if things continued as they were. It could potentially endanger future generations and harm
the family's fortune. He spoke the truth and offered his advice, suggesting they cout of hiding and no longer
seclude themselves in their own world."
