Chapter 56

He knew it deep down that this person was his salvation. He had to find this enigmatic savior and bring them on board to take down Tarquin.

His confidant said, “Our guys have been on it, but so far, nothing’s come up. It seems even Tarquin hasn’t sniffed out any leads. Whoever it is, they’re a pro.”

Gideon’s face was a mask of frustration as he exhaled sharply, “Of course they’re a pro. You think someone would dare to square off with Tarquin if they weren’t?”

Gideon narrowed his eyes in thought. “Get on the dark web and reach out to ‘Baby ET’S Support One“.

Whatever price they name, we meet it–as long as they can dig up who this person is.

His confidant looked worried, “But ‘Baby ET’s Support One‘ isn’t easy to pin down. He’s not always online and is so elusive. Plus, he doesn’t take jobs based on money–he goes by what tickles his fancy.”

“Baby ET’s Support One‘ was the current superstar of the hacking world.

Two years ago, he burst onto the scene, breaching a foreign military’s secure database in under a minute and made a name overnight.

Back then, a horde of hackers tried to uncover his identity, but not a single clue surfaced. Instead, they ended up having their own secrets exposed by the very person they were after.

Since then, no one has dared to challenge ‘Baby ET’s Support One‘, and he has been sitting pretty at the top of the hacker hierarchy. The very definition of an instant legend.

Many have tried to enlist his services, but with his clusive nature and fickle job selection, striking a deal with him meant you had hit the jackpot.

Gideon continued, “His user name is called ‘Baby ET’s Support One‘, which means he cares about ‘Baby ET. Maybe we could use this ‘Baby ET‘ to get to this man?”

The confidant replied, “The problem is, we also don’t have a clue who this ‘Baby ET‘ is either. The whole hacker community is buzzing with theories. Some say ‘Baby ET‘ is his girlfriend, but there’s no proof,”

Gideon furrowed his brow, “There’s got to be a time when he comes out for a job. If he is willing to take our offer, let him set the terms! If he gets involved, he’ll definitely be able to unearth the identity we need. So, think of something, and think fast!”

“Understood! And, we’ve come across a woman named Elysia who’s been mingling with the young master quite a bit. She’s also sort of a child psychologist. The young master might consider having her treat Elijah since she managed to stabilize the condition of the Denton family’s little boy.”

20.07 At the mention of Elysia, Gideon’s gaze sharpened, “Did you dig up her details?

We did. Here they are. She’s quite an ordinary woman. A mother of three boys, widowed. She’s been raising her sons by herself in a small mountain town and only recently arrived In Jindale City.”

Gideon scanned the information briefly, “Set up a meeting with her.”

Will do.

Meanwhile, in the hospital, Lowell spoke to Tarquin, “Gideon and the rest have left. They’ve been quietly busy searching for the person who cracked our security system. Looks like they’re looking for a partner.”

Tarquin scoffed, his eyes brimming with disdain. He had the blood of the Bradford family coursing through his veins, but he and the Bradfords shared a deep–seated enmity. If not for a few things yet to be resolved, he would have completely turned his back on the Bradfords long ago!

“Tarquin.” Benjamin Lawson approached with a manila envelope in hand.

One glance and Tarquin knew what it was, “The results are in?”

Yeah.”

“And? How’d it turn out?”

“See for yourself.”

Benjamin handed over the envelope, letting Tarquin discover the contents.

With the envelope in hand, Tarquin’s expression was tinged with gravity.

After a moment’s hesitation, he opened it and pulled out the DNA test results… 56
