Chapter 62 - Full Time Pervert

Sera continued snooping into her mother's background, and that was when she realized some discrepancies. Her mother never had any pictures in prom.

Or any other intimate events in the university.

At this time, the CCTV wasn't that many in the streets near her school so, Sera had no way of checking her mother's whereabouts. However,

She noticed something weird.

There were times and days where the CCTV was cut off just before her mother would go inside the gates and walk near the CCTV.

The cut was made in a very professional way. Even Sera found it hard to notice it first because of the lack of traces left by the person who did it. However, just what type of hacker was Sera?

She wasn't some dumb one that lacks observation skills!

Anyways, Sera couldn't really check all the videos in one night, so she decided to just download everything about her mother. She wasn't even sure what her goal was.

All she knew was the fact that she wanted to know more about the woman and maybe… the man who impregnated her. Sera's father.

After some time, she started researching about her mother's friends and realized that she had none.

What?

Yep. The golden child in Cone Lands wasn't really close to anyone in her class. Or at least that's what the photos said about her.

"Hm??" Sera's expression changed when she noticed that someone is trying to hack her computer. "What the hell!" She calmly checked the file that contained some destructive virus that would ruin everything in the same folder as the videos that she downloaded from the school.

"Eh? It seems that someone didn't want me to download these videos?" Suspicious. Sera smirked. The enemy was hoping that the person who downloaded the file was just some dumb hacker. They never expected that the firewall in her computer that Chris bought was actually thicker than the walls of the capital.

After a few seconds, Sera was able to eliminate the virus that was planted on the file. She sighed as she realized that the virus was planted manually. Meaning, the person who did it, used the computer from the university and used a USB to transfer the virus.

If the person who did it use some other remote methods like hacking into the university remotely, it would have been easier for her to track this person down.

She looked at the time and let out a soft curse when she realized that it was already five in the morning. After stretching her petite body, she opened the door and almost had a heart attack in shock.

"What are you doing here?" she gasped and took a step back, allowing Chris to walk inside.

"I couldn't sleep."

"…" It's already five in the morning. This man told her that he would be working late. Then he sent her a text in the middle of the night telling her that he needed to leave for some important meeting. He needed to go back to Pane City for a meeting!

Why is he here now?

"Umm… you said…"

"It's done."

"Huh?" Pane City is really far from Cone Lands, though. The plane… did he go there by his private jet? But the time doesn't add up.

However, before she could say anything, he suddenly pulled her into his arms. His slow, steady heartbeat and warm embrace somehow made her confuse as it felt really familiar. Maybe it was the sex?

Maybe her body had been accustomed to being near his body and it is reacting weirdly?

Still! The fact that she is getting used to him after days of being together is alarming!

Was she turning into a full-time pervert?

"I miss you…" Chris said after letting out a sigh. "Let's sleep?"

For some reason, she felt a bit disappointed that a kiss didn't follow that hug. But well… she couldn't really beg him to kiss her, right?

Alright, what the hell was she even thinking? What kiss?

She slowly pushed him away. "How's business?"

Chris didn't say anything as he led her out of the office. Hand in hand, the two arrived in the room. "Busy," he said as he started to unbutton his shirt. "How's hacking?" He approached the lamp near their beds and adjusted the light, making it dimmer.

With the blackout windows, Sera was confident that the sunlight would never get inside this room.

"Good." She was already in her pajamas, so she doesn't need to change into anything. When she saw him in his boxer's, Sera quickly turned her attention to the soft bed. She sat on the bed and leaned against the headboard, her eyes still trying to avoid his umm… abs.

"Miss Ting killed herself."

Sera shifted her gaze back to him. "Killed or…"

"The police are considering murder."

Sera pursed her lips and watched him changed into a comfortable sky blue… wait…

They have matching pajamas?

She blinked when she noticed him staring at her. "Murder, huh." Why does she feel like the woman died because of Chris? But that is wrong.

Miss Ting and Chris didn't have any connections aside from her working in the company.

"I need your help with something."

Sera didn't answer. She just watched him from her peripheral vision, observing him as he sat next to her. What happened next was something that he didn't expect.

Chris suddenly pulled her towards him, making her head use his arm as her pillow, making her snuggle comfortably against his chest. A hint of musky smell mixed with lemon filled her nose. Lemons… just like Cross's favorite scent.

She was waiting for him to continue talking about that something that he needed from her. Or maybe even start to touch her. After all, they had been touching each other a lot lately.

But none of this happened.

The next thing she knew, his breathing already turned slow and calm. She lifted her head and peered at him.

He was already sleeping. Sera stared at him for a few minutes before she made herself comfortable in his arm. Then she smiled and close her eyes.
