Chapter 830

Before bed, Andre was scrolling through his phone and noticed it had gotten dark outside, but his nephew was still hard at work, tapping away on the keyboard. He found himself watching the same video over and over again.

Meanwhile, Mia was cuddling their son to sleep. "Honey," she said, "try on the clothes I bought you today. I picked out a dark blue short-sleeve shirt for you. Put it on, let me see if it fits, and I got you some socks, thinner than the ones before." Henry, thinking she was talking to him, opened his big, bright eyes wide. "Mommy~"

"Mommy's right here, don't worry. I got clothes for you too. Now, close those eyes and sleep tight."

Andre put his phone down and asked, "Didn't you get anything for yourself?"

"Of course, I did. I'm not just here to spoil you two and leave myself out," Mia said confidently, happy to use her husband's credit card without a second thought.

Andre took their son, who had resisted sleep for half an hour, and said to Mia, "Why don't you try on what you bought? Let's see."

As the night wore on, Leo was still busy. "I'm sure someone has tampered with this, and it's not just anyone. But I still need to find out exactly which part because the video is so long."

Conner glanced at the clock and said, "You've got work tomorrow. Leave the computer here and check when you have some time."

Leaning back in his chair, Leo said, "Uncle, didn't you say the stuff on this computer shouldn't be shown to outsiders?"

Conner chuckled, "I'd be wary of others, but not you. It's crowded at your company during the day, and being a tech firm, it's risky."

He got up, not wanting to keep his nephew any longer. "By the way, Leo, you haven't had dinner."

Leo replied, "No worries, I won't starve."

Conner, seeing the late hour, added, "Next time we meet, dinner's on me."
