Nora stared at the screen for a while before realizing something. Well, that made sense. Of the few known hackers in the world, who else besides Y could compete with her for a few rounds? Justin hadnât shown up all day, even after learning what had happened to Karl. It turned out he had the same suspicions she did, so he was also hacking into the system in the middle of the nightâ¦.
The corners of Noraâs lips tightened.
Just because Justin hacked the system first, she had thought it was someone from the other side.
The corners of her lips spasmed again. Her phone rang at that moment and Justinâs deep, deep voice came from the other side. âAre you planning on making me pay the bill again?â
Nora thought back to the first time they met. Every time she did something with one of her identities, when she was discovered, everyone thought it was Justin who had helped her. She didnât want to reveal her identity at the time, so she hadnât disproved it.
However, the two still didnât know each other at the time. She had even felt a little embarrassed about him taking the blame.
As for now⦠Had she gotten so used to it by now?
Nora coughed and changed the subject. âWhat did you find?â
Justin, who had sensed her intentions, let out a low chuckle. His laughter reached her ear through the phone, making her feel like she was about to have an orgasm.
Justin said slowly, âIâve discovered that there is no information about Karl in the system!â.
A surprised Nora unconsciously replied, âSomething is wrong.â
As he spoke, Justin stopped obstructing her and Nora went into the system as well.
When Karl had gone to Switzerland more than twenty years ago, he had actually snuck into the country illegally. Therefore, there would definitely be no record of him buying plane tickets or leaving the country.
However, prior to entering the country illegally, Karl had been a gangster in New York. At that time, when he was dating Tanyaâs mother, he had committed a crime and ended up being arrested. Thatâs why he had broken off contact with Tanyaâs mother.
So how is it possible that he had no criminal record at the police station?
The fact that there was nothing was, in fact, the biggest problem of all.
Justin said, âIâve already checked for over three hours. Indeed, he has no criminal record.â
Nora took a deep breath. âI see.â She logged out of the system.
There were only two possible reasons why Karl had no criminal record in the system. The first was that Karl himself had hired a hacker to infiltrate the system and erase his records after he became famous.
He was, after all, part of the Assassinâs Alliance overseas. The less others knew about him, the better it would be.
Of course, there was also the second possibility â his records had been transferred, so they were not on the Internet.
But why had they been transferred?
This was what Nora had to investigate next.
She said to the phone, âIâm hanging up.â
She planned to go to the special department to question Karl again the next day.
But, unexpectedly, when she said that, Justin quickly replied, âYouâre heartless.â
There was a hint of resentment in his voice. ââ¦What?â
Justin sighed. âYou undo me once youâre done using me. Youâre already denying having done anything with me when you havenât even pulled your pants back up?â
Nora: â?â
I hadnât done anything with him at all!
Nora hung up right away. Her cheeks were a little red, what kind of nonsense was that man talking, what pants didnât he pull back up!

Elsewhere in the Huntsâ house.
Justin, who had been busy for over four hours, was left empty-handed. However, the computer made the corners of his lips curl into a smile at the end.
He shook his head and went to bed.
After lying down, he fell asleep very quickly.
He didnât know if it was because he had talked about pulling up his pants with Nora, but that night he had an unexpected dream.
In the dream, it seemed that someone had drugged him and knocked him unconscious, six years ago.
While he was half awake, he had had his way with a womanâ¦. The woman was very fat and very smoothâ¦. In his daze, he thought he saw a pair of almond-shaped eyes.
âHuff!â
Justinâs eyes suddenly widened and he looked up at the ceiling.
To be honest, he didnât remember anything about how he had been drugged and knocked unconscious, or how his sperm had been extracted six years ago. In all those years, that was the only night he had no memory of.
But the dream of the night before was all too real.
It felt so real that it was as if he had actually lived itâ¦. Remembering it now, it seemed like the memory of that night back then was slowly coming back to him.

The next day.
After waking up, Nora originally planned to head to the special department to ask Karl what exactly was going on with his criminal record. However, the moment she walked downstairs, she saw people coming in and out of the crowded living room.
Tanya was sitting on the couch and was looking at these people with a numb look on her face.
As for Maureen, she was busy greeting the rich ladies who were visiting them.
Most of them were here to ask if the wedding would still take place. When they found out that it would, they started giving her wedding gifts under the guise of friendship.
Maureen looked for someone to write down the gifts and their senders, so that Tanya could return the favor later.
Seeing how problematic the situation was, Nora frowned.
Suddenly, she didnât feel like having a wedding anymore. How boring did it have to be to sit and wait on the couch? If she had that much free time, she might as well go to bed.
But it seemed like he was thinking too much. Besides, she didnât have many friends in America. For Tanya, who had grown up in New York, it was different? With that thought in mind, Nora went downstairs and approached Tanya. She said teasingly, âAnd to think you said you had no friends. Do you look like you donât have any friends? ⦠Do you even remember your buddies from the garden?â
Tanya: ââ¦â
Tanya smiled wryly and said, âI really donât have any good impressions of them. They even said they danced with me when we were kids! How could I remember anyone from when I was five or six years old?â
Nora understood instantly.
These people were here to ingratiate themselves to the Smiths in the name of being good friends with Tanya!
The corners of Noraâs lips tightened.
At that moment, the butler rushed in and said, âMiss Nora, Madame Tanya, this is terrible! Mrs. Jones is here again. Sheâs crying at the door because we refused to let her inâ¦â
Nora and Tanya looked at each other.
The butler sighed. âWe want to throw her out, but with so many people coming in and out today, it wonât reflect well on us if people notice. How should I handle this?â
Nora scoffed.
Originally, she had thought to find an opportunity to recount Jill and Mr. Jonesâ conversation in the car. Now that Jill was rushing to death court, this was certainly a great opportunity!
She sent Lily a message right away, âDid you bring the DNA report?â. Lily quickly replied, âIâm on my way.â
When Nora saw her reply, she stood up and raised her almond eyes, making her look like someone who took quick and decisive action. She walked out of the house slowly and said, âThen letâs go meet her.â
At first Tanya didnât want to, but Nora was already leaving the house, so she could only follow her.
As soon as the two came out, they saw Jill sitting on a large rock in front of the door of the Smith mansion. She was wiping her tears with a handkerchief.
Next to her, someone was walking by and asked, âMrs. Jones, are you crying because you canât bear to part with your soon-to-be-married daughter?â
Jill heaved a huge sigh. âOf course. After all, I gave birth to her. No matter how badly I treat her, she was once part of my bodyâ¦â
When Hillary and Tanya were involved in a lawsuit, Jill and Tanya had been very much at odds. To be honest, everyone knew that the relationship between mother and daughter was not good.
So why was Jill showing off here?
A lot of people had come to the Smithsâ house today to deliver gifts. More than a dozen ladies had slowly gathered around Jill at this point. Including their chauffeurs, attendants, and servants who had come with them, there were nearly thirty people surrounding Jill at this time.
Jill stood crying. âMy life is so hard, what could I do after those things happened and I got pregnant with that murdererâs child? Being young and kind, I could only give birth to the child? It is true that I did not treat her well, but she is the child of a murderer and even a rapist! I canât help thinking of her father every time I see her. How could I have treated her well? Sobâ¦â
As soon as she started crying, the simple-minded people around her immediately realized something.
âIt turns out thereâs actually more to her than meets the eye!â
âNo wonder then that Jill treats Tanya so badly. If you look at how she treats Hillary, sheâs not really an evil mother. To be honest, if I were her, I wouldnât even have been able to keep the child.â
âMe tooâ¦come to think of it, I even scolded Jill for treating her daughter badly back then. But if thatâs the case, then her actions are really forgivable!â
âShe was already very good at giving birth to Tanya and giving her life! After that, she even raised her and didnât kill herâ¦come to think of it, Tanya should thank her.â
âI wasnât sympathetic to her before. They are both her daughters, how could she treat them so differently? When I visited the Joneses when I was young, I had never treated Tanya well. But now, all of a sudden, I understand why she did it.â
They all passed comments one after another.
Jill cried even more miserably. âYes, I had a lot of doubts then. I didnât want to give birth to her, but in the end, I still couldnât bear to give up a little life, So I gave birth to her!â
He looked at Tanya, who had come out. She cried and shouted, âTanya, I know I made a mistake. This is all my fault. I have taken my resentment towards your father out on you, can you forgive me?â
As soon as he said that, everyone looked at Tanya.
âMrs. Turner, why wonât he forgive you?â
âYes. In a situation like this, if you donât forgive her, then youâll be the bad guy!â
âShe didnâtâ¦â
Lilyâs car pulled up to the door at that moment.
