Chapter 280

By the evening. I noticed it started to snow outside, so I decided to stretch my legs a bit. Just as I was about to head out, I saw Neils car pull up. But it wasn’t him who got out, but his assistant, Felo

Felix jogged into the villa, and instinctively, I peeked out of my door to see that he had headed upstairs. He looked surprised to see me but quickly regained his composure. He gave me a nod before rushing up to the third floor.

Neil’s study was a strictly private place. I’d only gone in when he was there.

The door to the study had a facial recognition lock. If it failed three times, it would trigger an alarm.

Felix came out of the study pretty quickly, with a document in hand. He nodded at me again before quickly leaving

After he left, I somehow found myself standing at the study door.

I wondered if Neil had looked into my dad and Oscar Morse and left any clues in his study.

“Beep!”

The lock beeped, indicating a facial recognition failure. I jumped, quickly stepping away to avoid triggering it again.
