The waiter served them their coffee.
Brennan wrapped his hands around his cup slowly.
It seemed that he was just warming his hands with the hot coffee, rather than drinking it.
"You... You and Selina share a close relationship, right?" he asked with his head down.
Caroline was surprised.
After a moment, she smiled and answered, "Yes, we do. In fact, we've been close ever since we went to school together. We're just like sisters." "You... You didn't tell her anything, right?" "Nope, you askednot to tell her, so I didn't say anything." Brennan heaved an obvious sigh of relief.
"That's good, that's good." He finally took a sip of his coffee.
It seemed that the coffee was too bitter as his brows immediately furrowed.
"You still have a crush on Selina, don't you?" Caroline's question cout of the blue.
Her tone made it sound more like a statement rather than a question.
Brennan let out a cough when he heard it, almost spitting out the coffee in his mouth.
He put down his cup hurriedly, his face as red as a tomato.
I... I don't." He lowered his head quickly.
"I don't, I really don't," he emphasized.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA glint of mockery flashed across Caroline's eyes.
Brennan had romantic feelings for Selina, and he had an extremely shy personality. Such a person would be easily manipulated.
With that in mind, she decided to keep him as a back-up tool, as he might be useful in the future.
She inched her face closer to his, and a bright smile appeared on her face. "Look at you, your face is already blushing, and yet you're still denying it." Brennan felt even more uneasy.
He looked as if he was wanted to dig a hole to hide himself in.
Caroline's smile seemed to have sother meaning to it.
"Brennan, just admit that you like her." "No, I don't." He was still trying to defend himself till the end.
"Stop pretending, Brennan, I already know everything," Caroline mentioned.
He was helpless.
"You... You can't tell her, please don't tell her," he said as he gave her a quick glance.
His words were basically an indirect confession of his feelings.
"Alright, I won't," Caroline replied in a blunt manner. "I definitely won't say a single word to her." Once again, Brennan let out a sigh of ease.
"Didn't Selina recognize you?" Caroline continued asking.
He shook his head. "No." Caroline fell into deep thought.
A moment later, she spoke straightforwardly, "By the way, you should stop going to the Whitlock family's villa, there are a lot of security cameras installed there." She had gone to the villa for a specific reason that day, so she had been extremely careful. To her surprise, she found out that there were surveillance cameras set up in every corner around the villa. Hence, Caroline had no choice but to abort her plan.
Brennan was shocked to the core when he heard about the cameras.
He becreally nervous. "How could this be... Security cameras? She... She didn't recognize me, right?" Caroline consoled him, "I don't think so, she wouldn't have even suspected that it was you loitering around the villa." "That's great, that's great." "But you shouldn't go there anymore," she warned him.
"Of course I won't, I won't go there ever again." "Since Selina hasn't recognize you, you shouldn't reveal yourself to her either," Caroline added.
Brennan's face turned gloomy. "I won't tell her. She hates me, she really hates me... I'll definitely not tell her." Caroline hummed in response.
Her brain started to turn.
She was thinking about how she could make use of Brennan.
No matter how she thought about it, she just couldn't cup with an idea. Therefore, she could only put him aside for the tbeing, and wait for the right tto use him. Right before she was about to leave, she asked casually, "By the way, Brennan, what have you been doing recently?" "Computers, hacking." Caroline was stunned.
"Are hackers even real?" She asked curiously.
She had only seen and read about hackers on TV and in books, and had never expected to meet one in real life. "Yes." When it cto topics that were his expertise, Brennan becrather talkative. "It's actually a profession. I'm an introvert, and there aren't many jobs suitable for me, so it's actually not bad to earn a livelihood through this." Suddenly, a thought appeared in Caroline's mind.
He had been making a living off of hacking? It meant that he was an expert in the field.
Caroline then thought of her own plan that was in progress. She had planned to give Matthew a call under Selina's name, to let him hear the contents in the phone.
She had already laid her hands on Matthew's phone and installed a virus in it, but he somehow changed a new cell phone just before the plan was about to be carried out.
She didn't dare to risk her own safety again just to sneak into Matthew's office to retrieve his phone.
Her plan B had been to sneak into the Whitlock family's villa to give Matthew a call using the villa's landline. Unfortunately, the villa had had surveillance cameras installed everywhere. Caroline brought up her plan tentatively, "Here's the deal. Would you be able to use a fake phone number to dial another person's phone?" "That's very simple." Caroline licked his lips and continued, "But the targeted person isn't an ordinary person, his phone is really special, so it's not going to be that simple." Brennan gave it a bit of thought. "It's still feasible with a little bit more effort." "Really?" Caroline becexcited. "Can you do it without planting a virus into that person's phone?" The person that she had previously looked for had told her that she had to introduce a virus into Matthew's mobile phone in order to give him a call under Selina's phone number.
"Yes," Brennan answered confidently.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCaroline's heart started to beat faster.
She had been preparing for her plan for a long time, but had failed om multiple times due to various reasons. She was already starting to give up, but there finally seemed to be a light at the end of the tunnel. "Then, can you helpwith this?" Caroline looked at Brennan expectantly. He couldn't help but pry, "Why do you want to call a person with someone else's phone number?" Caroline maintained a calm face.
"One of my friends' husband is
cheating on her, but she doesn't believe me. That is why I want to give her a call using her husband's phone number, to let her listen to the converse between her husband and the mistress. I want her to wake up in time." S'a**h the [email protected] website on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality. Brennan's face flushed after hearing the story.
Caroline continued pressing him for an answer. "So, can you help me? After all, I've helped you to hide your identity from Selina." Caroline used his weak spot, Selina.
Sure enough, he agreed instantly. "Fine, I'll give it a try." A big grin grew on Caroline's face.
She then went to Nadia's house again.
As soon as she arrived, Nadia started asking her about her plan relentlessly.
Caroline was slightly irritated.
She glared at Nadia. "Do you really think that our plan can be so fast? The implemented so fast? The woman' who put your husband in jail is not an ordinary person, she's Tobias younger sister! Do you really think it's going to be that easy?" If it was really that easy, Caroline wouldn't have waited until now to take revenge on Selina.
Nadia was scared by her reaction. "I'm just feeling anxious." "If you're really so anxious, then you should focus on taking good care of those things of yours." Caroline snapped at her.
Nadia remained silent.
She didn't know how Caroline had cto know about it, just that this woman was definitely different from the rest, and must be really powerful.
"Taketo see those things of yours," Caroline said.
Nadia was startled by her request.
