Chapter 264: Ferdinand was, in truth, more sensitive and prone to suspicion than Kellan.

Right now, he couldnt shake the feeling that something was off about Allison.

I heard she kept her composure throughout the crisis today, Ferdinand began, his voice tinged with curiosity.

She located the killers in no time, and although she didnt get directly involved, she somehow made that remote control of the bomb break down.

Thats not something just anyone can do.

Kellan responded with a nonchalant shrug.

She was a big help.

If not for her, the bomb wouldve gone off.

She clearly had remote control over it.

There was a subtle undertone in his voice as he added, It takes serious skill to crack codes that fast.

There arent many hackers who can pull that off.

He recalled the time Allison had effortlessly restored the firewall and fended off a cyber attack targeting the companys main servers.

He had been caught off guard by her abilities even back then.

Who wouldve thought that her talents extended beyond computers? She could crack explosive devices just as easily as if she were defusing a petty argument.

Shes a master of deception, Kellan sighed in his heart, his eyes narrowing.

Always keeping everyone guessing.

Ferdinand gave a light shrug.
