Chapter 1217
Keegan only withdrew his gaze after Stella went inside The Deli. Then, he received a message from Carter: [Please
pay me and my wife for showing up.]
Keegan read it and replied with a screenshot of a medal: [It's being made. I'll send it to your wife's place later.]
Carter texted a reply: [A medal worth thirty bucks? Come on, the gifts we brought are worth more than that.]
Keegan took another screenshot of their conversation and forwarded it to Lena: [How much do you want? I'll pay
you.]
[Don't listen to him. We didn't bring any gifts.] Lena replied.
After that, Keegan sent a screenshot of Lena's response back to Carter.
Carter kept quiet for a while before sending him a middle finger emoji. Keegan loosened his tie and asked: [What
about the thing I asked you to investigate earlier? Any updates on that?]
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCarter corrected him: [It wasn’t an investigation. You wanted me to steal the information.]
Keegan replied with an indifferent face: [Isn't hacking into other parties' security systems something you do when
you're bored?]
Carter replied in a serious manner: [It's more like assisting them to patch their vulnerabilities.]
Carter was so good with computers that he could easily bypass the firewalls of most cybersecurity systems and
even modify their data without being traced.
Although Lena came from an ordinary family, she was very prideful and independent.
Carter's parents were unhappy with this marriage and even expressed their disapproval in front of the couple and
behind their backs more than once.
Lena had a very strong sense of self-esteem and insisted on doing property notarization with Carter right after they
married. She wanted to make her stance clear that she would not take advantage of Carter even if they were to get
a divorce in the future.
However, the notarization was never successful because whenever they went to the notary office, there would
always be something wrong with the computer systems.
Lena had no idea why, but all his friends knew.
They knew Carter was the one tampering with the system.
He was not worried that Lena would take advantage at all. He even hacked into the notary office's computer system
to avoid making the property notarization.
Keegan felt regretful as he thought about that.
When he was in the midst of divorcing Stella, he was consumed by anger and couldn't think clearly. If he had been
more composed and cleverer, he could have approached Carter to hack into the Civil Affairs Bureau's computers.
That way, he would not have to turn himself from a husband to an ex.
As Keegan thought about that, he asked: [Can you hack into the Civil Affairs Bureau's system and revoke my divorce
with Stella?]
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCarter's eyelid twitched as he replied: [I can even change your father's status to being alive. Do you want me to do
that too?]
His response left Keegan speechless. Carter continued:
[Your divorce, like your father's death, is already a fact. Stella doesn't even share an account with you anymore.
Are you out of your mind? Besides, the office is full of cameras. Do you think the staff working there are blind?]
Keegan did not want to give up: [We can hack the surveillance system too.]
Carter was speechless at his suggestion.
Lena finally had a day off last night, and they planned to stroll by the river. However, Keegan called them for help,
and their plan was disrupted. They would have a date after helping Keegan, but Lena received a new case and had
to leave.
Carter blamed Keegan for not getting to spend time with Lena. He replied to Keegan with another middle finger
emoji upon reading his last message.
Then, he said after venting his frustration: [The autopsy report of Yolanda Fenley confirms that she died from an
overdose. There's nothing suspicious about that, but...]
[But what?] [But no one knows if she injected the drugs herself or not.]
[What do you mean?]
