Kristian's gaze lingered on Gérard's ceaselessly moving mouth, fighting the urge to silence it permanently.

He understood Freya would never resort to such tactics herself; he simply couldn't fathom why his wife had concealed her hacking abilities all this time.

As her husband, this revelation blindsided him completely.

Witnessing Kristian's genuine irritation, Gerard joined the interrogation. "Ms. Briggs, why have you never mentioned your hacking expertise?"

"Why should I?" Freya countered simply.

"It could impress everyone," Gerard remarked.

his glasses nervously. "It merely seems unfortunate that such remarkable talents remain unacknowledged."

"It doesn't need to be acknowledged." Freya dismissed his concern with indifference.

The fascination struck her as somewhat childish.

In her younger years, she had shared Gerard's perspective-believing individuals who cracked cases with mere keystrokes possessed an enviable coolness.

Back then, she had dreamed of mastering these skills and becoming a formidable hacker.

As she matured, however, that romanticized vision gradually dissolved.

The information she uncovered through her abilities remained equally accessible to law enforcement, military intelligence, and various government agencies.

There, she witnessed horrors and atrocities that shattered her innocence, confronting the reality that certain individuals existed with less humanity than hell's own

Following these discoveries, she semi-retired, occasionally assisting police with particularly challenging investigations by anonymously providing crucial information.

Eventually, she recognized that whatever she discovered remained within their investigative capabilities as well
