Chapter 1364
Keegan understood what Carter meant and said, "I'll call you back later."
After the call ended, Lena looked at Carter and asked, "What is it about?"
"Nothing much. He just wants to have a drink with me because it's been a while since we met."
"Go ahead then. I'll get something to eat around here and get a cab back myself," Lena said.
"No way." Carter immediately rejected her suggestion. "I'll stay with you for a while first."
Lena felt helpless. There was nothing she could do to change how clingy Carter was, but she kind of liked it too.
Carter leaned in and kissed her on the lips. "Lena, why don't you switch to another less demanding position? You've
been working overtime so frequently; it isn't good for your health. Look, you've lost weight again."
Lena lowered her gaze and said, "This is my field of expertise. What else can I do other than this?"

In that way, not only that Lena would not have to put herself in danger on the front lines, but it was also the easiest
path to get a promotion.
It would probably be difficult for Lena to make the switch with her own capabilities, but Carter had all the
connections. It would be effortless for him to help her with it.
However, Lena did not want that as she said in a low voice," The management role will need me to interact with
living people, and I'm only good at dealing with the dead. I'm not very good with words. It'll be hard for me to deal
with so many different people, let alone using official terms to handle the media.”
She paused before asking softly, "Is it because your parents want me to switch careers?"
"No." Carter brushed her hair that fell on her cheek to the back of her ear and said, "I just don't want you to drain
yourself. It was just a suggestion. I'll support you no matter what others say if you want to work in this field."
Lena's chilly gaze softened as she hugged Carter and gently kissed him.
"If we have children in the future, and the job is still as busy as now, I'll consider switching to management."
Carter was taken aback by her response. A faint smile appeared, and he said, "Okay."
After eating and sending Lena back home, Carter called Keegan. He asked directly, "Are you a friend of the victim
of this case?"
"I'm not, but I know who he is and how he was murdered."
The case had been widely spread. Keegan figured that Hylda would definitely start escaping, judging by how clever
she was.
Although Keegan knew about the truth behind Walter's death, he could not provide the police with the audio
recording he heard earlier. The case would become much more complicated if he was involved. The police had
limited efficiency, and Keegan was worried that Hylda might already be gone before they sorted out the facts.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSo, he needed Carter to do what he did best and present the evidence to solve the case as soon as possible.
Keegan told his entire plan to Carter. Carter kept quiet for a while before he finally spoke. "Can you find something
legal for me to do next time?"
"Hackers are meant to break the law. That's how they showcase their skills." Keegan said indifferently.
Carter pointed a middle finger at him.
Keegan gazed at him. "You never did this before."
Carter paused and swept his gaze across him. "I only did that because I respected you back then. However, it
seems like you're not a respectable person, so I won't do that anymore."
Keegan stood up and buttoned his suit. Then, he looked at Carter and said, "Both of you are the same."
Carter ignored what he said. "I'll help you again for your wife -because your ex-wife helped Lena before. However,
you'll have to pay me the next time you ask for my help again."
Keegan was speechless.
"Hmph." Keegan scoffed and corrected him. "She's my fiancee, not my ex-wife."
He then showed the engagement ring on his finger to the camera and spoke somewhat proudly. "Stella bought this
engagement ring for me."
