"I'm not alone," Gwyneth patiently reasoned with ShadowCipher. "The army will protect me. Just do what I tell you and stop Liam.""The army?" ShadowCipher snorted skeptically—those stoic, robotic beings devoid of emotion?!He certainly would not trust them when he had never even talked to them!"Are you disobeying my order?!"Gwyneth was not bothered to waste her breath—Liam's people were no pushover, and he would find her soon enough. Time was of the essence!As she frowned and glared, magnifying her own presence to overwhelm him, ShadowCipher caved immediately. "I'll try to stop him."ShadowCipher gave her a brief hug and reluctantly left in an instant, though Gwyneth did not care. ShadowCipher was basically a smokescreen in human form, and he was not going to distract Liam for that long. If she did not want Liam to catch on, she had to deal with the smugglers as soon as possible.Since the smart approach was not working, it was time to blindside them.With that in mind,

The mastermind was not backing down just yet. Clenching his fist, he pushed himself off the floor to keep fighting, only to cough up blood as he got up.His eyelids were getting heavy and he was losing consciousness, too drained to tough it out against Gwnyeth. However, Gwyneth blacked out as well, her head wobbling a little before her knees caved, and she dropped to the floor.-The gunshots finally stopped after half an hour, and the stench of blood swirled in the air."Where's Gwyneth Glen?! Has anyone seen her?!" the commander barked after doing a head count.His detachment was immediately on alert. They had taken down all the smugglers, but Gwyneth—who was supposed to capture the mastermind alive—was missing.How was the commander supposed to explain that to his superiors?!Swapping his gaze over his men, he barked sternly, "Start searching for her!"-Standing outside a diner, ShadowCipher stared at the black car that slowly headed into the distance. Still, it was al

"We were so worried when we heard that you were hurt and were afraid you were in danger. It's been a while since you and Liam dropped by too, so why don't you come back for a bit and have dinner together?"Gaspard's tone was earnest, and his words were filled with concern for Gwyneth. Those who did not know would think that he was a good father who loved his daughter.Gwyneth, who was sick to her stomach, almost puked right then—even if they were not done with their act, she was sick of watching them!Putting down her glass and smiling vaguely, she said, "I really can't tell if you're trying to help your daughter hook up or if you're really inviting me to dinner, Mr. Glen."That instantly shattered the trio's meticulously prepared act of harmony. Gaspard certainly did not expect Gwyneth to be headstrong enough to humiliate him in front of Liam either!He flushed as Liam shot a thoughtful look at him, restraining himself as he gently rebuffed Gwyneth. "Oh, Gwyn—what are you talki

In reality, the competition was already over—ShadowCipher was there precisely to discuss that."I get why you'd want to keep Root now, master," he admitted. "He's worth grooming, and in the time I've instructed him, he's shown both adaptability and persistence—typical traits of a gifted competitive hacker. He's made it to the top five too, which really surprised me."ShadowCipher was certainly emotional about the last part.Being in the top five globally meant Root had both become a pride of the nation and seized the attention of the world. ShadowCipher actually thought that he would not be a match for the boy during his younger years.However, that also meant future complications which might prove inevitable.ShadowCipher's expression turned grim as he added, "Actually, on the day the competition ended, I noticed several groups trying to draw him to their cause."There was actually a mystified look on Gwyneth's usually stoic expression, and she closed her laptop, unable to keep

There was no telling how they uncovered her identity as the wonder doctor, and they were asking for her help to treat a patient.While it was written as an 'offer', there was a clear demand in the tone. It was no different from the text Root received that ShadowCipher had described to her.And she was being asked to tend to a gunshot wound.If it was someone upstanding, they did not have to text her in private while also swearing her for secrecy. There were not that many people from illegal groups who had the gall to speak like that, and it might even be possible that they were from the same terror group.Gwyneth frowned as she returned to her mansion and picked up her laptop to investigate the issue further.Her hacking skills were unparalleled, and as her fair fingers accelerated over the keyboard, the IP proxy that the people thought impregnable was decrypted with relative ease.Just as she thought, it was the same terror group blackmailing Root and demanding that she treat th
