Chapter 1055:
âI can help you,â she offered, gently combing through his hair, which was softer and smoother than she had expected, like strands of luxurious silk.
âAfter all, no one is better at uncovering information than I am.â
Cobwebâs intelligence network was unparalleled. Even the most deeply buried secrets left traces, and where there were traces, they could be unearthed.
Although Gordon said that he was going to be confined recently, others within Cobweb had stepped in to handle his responsibilities.
âAlright,â Kellan said after a moment. He knew Allisonâs capabilities as a hacker.
It wasnât hard to believe after witnessing how effortlessly she resolved the complex cyberattack on Charisma Company.
Perhaps it was her skill, or maybe it was the soothing rhythm of her fingers in his hair. Whatever the reason, he let his guard down. He leaned into her and rested his face against her neck.
âItâs not urgent. Whatâs most important is helping you find the information you need about your mother.â
With each word Kellan uttered, his warm breath brushed against Allisonâs skin, sending tingling sensations down her spine. She continued to idly run her fingers through his hair.
âNow that weâre together, even the hardest things feel easier than facing them alone.â
Her fingertips wandered from his head down to his spine. His crisp black shirt clung perfectly to his body, highlighting the lean, sensual lines of his physique.
As her fingers traveled lower, they brushed against his tailbone â his most sensitive spot. The light touch drew a deep, involuntary groan from him.
âDonât moveââ
Before the moment could deepen, Kellanâs phone buzzed. It was a call from Sherman.
âMr. Lloyd,â came Shermanâs voice, brisk and professional. âWeâve just received an intelligence email.â
It was from an address that required Kellanâs attention. Sherman immediately forwarded it to him.
âAröme Tower?â Kellan muttered, his expression darkening as he read further.
âWhatâs wrong?â Allison asked, her voice calm but tinged with concern. She had a feeling that it had something to do with her.
Kellan showed Allison the email.
âIn about a week, the CEO of Dibya will be visiting Ontdale for business cooperation. It seems to be tied to some major investment projects.â
Allison froze for a moment, processing the news. Then, her eyes lit up with excitement.
âWe were just worried about how to approach him, and now heâs coming to us. Looks like God is on our side.â She carefully studied the details in the email and continued, âIf we use this opportunity to get close to him, we may gain access to Aröme Tower.â
Kellan could see the determination in her eyes. He nodded, then gave Sherman an instruction.
