Chapter 127
Edwin quickly shut his mouthBut after a while, he could not contain his curiosity. While typing his
keyboard he said, “But Nicole is really mysterious. Many Internet search experts on the campus looked
her up but found nothing.”
“Not even you?” Harvey raised his eyebrows slightly.
Edwin was a cyber expert proficient in some hacking techniques. Despite being a twelve grader, he had
partnered with Preston to set up a hacking service company outside the campus. The company was said
to have made plenty deals.
“That’s right. I’ve found some private accounts Nicole is using for her daily life.”
“But be it messenger or social media, all her accounts are newly created. Her personal information is
well hidden, and her past records seem to have been deliberately deleted.”
“She’s that mysterious?” Harvey stared at Edwin’s screen. As what Edwin had said, there was nothing in
her file.
This is strange. What is Nicole’s identity, that even grandpa is so concerned about her?’
“Yes. In fact, I have been looked her up for many days. The digital footprints she left on the Internet are
all baits. In other words, I found nothing. I think there were some bigshots covering for her. Otherwise no
one can eliminate their digital footprints on the Internet that clean.”
Harvey was fully intrigued. He frowned and said, “You can’t find anything about her. What about the
person behind her?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEdwin sighed, sounded resentful. “I can’t find it either. The means the party used are much smarter than
mine. Judging from the methods the person used, the person should be some bigshot in the world of
hackers. The person should be on par with a top hacker like Lucifer.”
Lucifer was a legend in the world of hackers. There were countless hackers trying to imitate Lucifer.
Hence, Edwin assumed that the person behind Nicole was also someone imitating Lucifer’s approach.
Seeing that Edwin failed to dig out information about Nicole, Harvey’s eyes became solemn. He wanted
a chance to confront Nicole.
Edwin muttered, “My company has recently taken a big job offer, but Preston and I can’t handle it… If we
can find the expert behind Nicole, we will be able to find a way to help client solve the big problem
they’re facing.”
Harvey said nothing. Suddenly, he put on his jacket and went out. Edwin looked at his back and followed
him curiously.
Sure enough, Harvey came to Class B without saying a word. He smiled at a girl at the door,”
Hi, I’m looking for Nicole from your class.”
The girl was flattered to hear his gentle voice. She immediately turned around and shouted,” Nicole,
someone is looking for you!”
Nicole was propping her head up her jaw lazily. As soon as she heard the girl, she looked at the door.
However, she frowned the moment she saw it was Harvey and did not move.
Although the classmates around did not dare to say anything when seèing Nicole treating Harvey this
way, there was displeasure in their eyes looking at Nicole.
Harvey had also seen Nicole. He could no longer smile upon the sight of her attitude toward him. He
turned around and gave Edwin, who was sticking out his head looking around, a push. “Say you’re
looking for her.”
Edwin was a little confused, “Why?”
A hint of coldness appeared in Harvey’s voice, which was rare. “Didn’t you see that. She ignored me
when I called for her.”
Edwin looked into Harvey’s very dark eyes. For a moment he felt that he could not see through
the mind of his long-time friend.
Edwin looked at Harvey deeply. Harvey appeared to be harmless gentleman. “Edwin, please,” said
Harvey with a sincere smile.
Edwin looked at Harvey. When he thought he had to look for Nicole himself for something, he smiled,
“Alright.” Then, he walked into Nicole’s class, headed to Nicole’s seat, and whispered, “Nicole, could we
have a little talk?”
Nicole raised her eyes and looked at Edwin. She was certain that she did not know him. “Who
are you?”
Edwin curled his lips into a smile, that he thought it was imposing, and whispered to Nicole,” Edwin
Bradford.”
Although his name was not as famous as Harvey’s, it was still a little well-known that only a few students
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmin the Royal Creek Institute would not recognize him.
As expected, the Class B students’ murmurs had not stopped since he walked in.
“Wow, it’s really Edwin! The eldest son of the Bradford family!”
“I think he’s more handsome than how he looked in the photos on the school forum, but unfortunately
Edwin has been keeping his profile low. He always follows Harvey around, making himself stand out
less.”
“You are right. His is quite good looking. I didn’t notice him when he was walking along with Harvey.”
Edwin’s face darkened when he heard them. ‘No wonder I have no girls after me in the campus
despite being handsome. It is all because of Harvey!’
At the thought of he was still running errands for Harvey, Edwin got angry. “Nicole, Harvey wanted me to
ask you to see him, but I’m feeling angry now. I wonder if we can have a talk about something else
alone?”
After seeing Nicole directly ignored Harvey, Edwin thought that she would turn him down. Little did he
expect Nicole would say, “Yes.’
Then he saw Nicole speaking to Lulu, “Help me out when teacher is taking attendance.” Lulu looked at
them blankly and nodded.
Even after Nicole had stood up, Edwin was still staring at her in a trance.
Nicole frowned, “What’s the matter?”
When he heard her, Edwin came to his senses. He rubbed his messy hair while speaking softly, “I just
didn’t expect you to be affable.” He thought, ‘If I knew it earlier, I would have approached her earlier!’
