Chapter 282 Scared
This time, Jonathan was determined to break into Nathaniel’s personal computer. However, he had not
anticipated that his own father would still be awake at this hour.
Nathaniel was unable to fall asleep, and was instead, working on his computer when he discovered that his
computer had been hacked.
He watched as his mouse cursor moved automatically, and clicked through his documents. His eyes narrowed
slightly, then he quickly started typing on his keyboard.
Elsewhere, Jonathan was seated in front of his computer. His forehead was slick with a sheen of
sweat.
Elliot leaned over next to him, “Jon, what's happening?”
“Oh no! I've been caught.”
In that final moment, Jonathan's computer screen abruptly went dark. Unexpectedly, while attempting to
infiltrate Nathaniel’s computer, it was his computer system that ended up being compromised instead.
After all, Jonathan was still young, and he was no match for Nathaniel yet. In no time, Nathaniel had managed to
locate Jonathan's IP address.

Nathaniel noted that the IP address was located overseas.
He sent a message to Mason, instructing him to investigate.
Jonathan felt drained, “Damn it!!”
“I really did not expect our good-for-nothing father to have a few tricks up his sleeve,” Elliot admitted thought
he himself was not being very savvy with computers.
However, he understood enough to know that they were in serious trouble.
“Before he gets here, we must erase all evidence,” Jonathan said as he shut down his computer.
“Do we have to run?”
Elliot had experienced Nathaniel’s punishments firsthand. Once he caught them, he would lock them up for an
extended period.
During his tin the Spring Forest Manor, he had been driven to complete boredom.
“Don’t worry, he only has our general location. He doesn’t know that it’s us.”
“You're right. After all, we're just kids! We're only good at playing computer games,” Elliot said, returning to his
bed and pulling his blanket over himself.

Jonathan was also tired. He, too, went and laid down on his bed.
Elliot hummed a little song to lull himself to sleep.
The days leading up to the divorce hearing seemed to stretch on forever. During that time, Cecilia made a
journey to her father’s grave. She cleared away the snow piled on it and gazed at her father’s portrait set into
the headstone.
“Hey Dad, it's been a while.”
Cecilia took a deep breath and lifted her eyes to the distant mountains capped in white. “You once toldthat |
should always feel free to speak my mind to you. No matter where you are, you promised to always lenda
patient ear. | chere today to let you know that I've decided. to file for divorce. To be honest, | never thought
things would happen this way. So much has happened since you've been gone...”
Cecilia spoke aloud whatever cto her mind, oblivious to the fact that, not too far away, someone in a black
sedan was constantly watching her.
The individual in the car was periodically seized by fits of coughing. His complexion was pallid, and his slender
pianist’s hands bore the marks of numerous needle pricks.
“Mr. Nicholas, it's tfor us to leave,” the driver said.
Nicholas grunted in acknowledgement. He dragged his gaze away and slowly closed his eyes.

At that moment, she received a phone call. It was Sven at the other end of the line.
Ever since he returned with Nathaniel a few days ago, he had taken a flight over, to her.
“Ms. Smith, I've just landed. Mr. Reese has askedto continue looking after you. Where are you now?”
Cecilia gave him her location.
Soon after, Sven arrived by car.
Since Nathaniel had already seen him before, he did not bother hiding. “There are two people each at our two
o'clock and six o'clock.”
Cecilia knew without even looking that those were Nathaniel’s men.
“Are you scared?”
Sven was taken aback by her direct question.
“If you're nervous about Nathaniel, you don’t have to keep watching over me. Ill talk to Calvin about it,” Cecilia
offered graciously.

That was his answer to Cecilia's question.
