Chapter 533


    At Vermillion Base, Boss was on a call. Just as he hung up, Gavin walked in hurriedly.


    “Boss,” Gavin said, wearing a weird look on his face.


    “What is it?” Boss put down his phone and looked at Gavin.


    Gavin did not say anything but instead opened his palm, revealing the ne. When Boss saw it, he


    reached out and picked it up. “That was fast. Is it fixed already?”


    Surprisingly, Gavin answered, “No.”


    Fiddling with the ne in his hand, Boss noticed that the chain was still broken. Frowning, he


    asked, “What do you mean?”


    “Don''t you find anything wrong with it?” Gavin questioned.


    “Hmm? What''s wrong with it?” Boss questioned.


    “There''s a chip in the ne,” Gavin said.


    Holding the ne, Boss heard what Gavin said. Then, he paused before echoing, “A chip?”


    “Yes. The jeweler found it when he was repairing it. There''s one here and here. If it wasn''t sent in for


    restoration, no one would know it was there.” As Gavin talked, he twisted open a small, protruding


    design piece, revealing a tiny chip.


    At the sight of it, Boss reached out, picked it up, and scrutinized it.


    After quite some time, Boss asked, “What kind of chip is it? What''s it used for? Have you looked into


    it?”


    Gavin nodded. “I hired someone to look into it, and the expert said this is a kind of chip that can


    be aputer once linked.”


    “Aputer?” Boss said as doubt filled his eyes. “With only this? In this size? Are you sure?”


    “Let me rify. It can''t turn into aputer with just this. It needs to link with otherponents for it to


    work. I''m not too sure about the details, but people who use this kind of chip are usually hackers.”


    At that, Boss furrowed his brows.


    A hacker...


    Looking at the tiny chip that was even smaller than a pea, Boss frowned in thought again.


    This thing... Did someone put this on Natasha on purpose, or is this actually Natasha''s?


    At a sudden thought, Boss nced at Gavin and asked, “Gavin, I remember you telling me that your


    daughter has gotten into university. Am I right?”


    Although Gavin felt slightly confused about what Boss was trying to say, the former nodded. “Yes.”


    “She''s such a smart girl. Well, your children are smart, too, aren''t they?”


    At the mention of his family, Gavin replied, “They got it from my wife. My wife''s a smart woman.


    However, she couldn''t get into university due to family issues. Otherwise, she would certainly be a high


    achiever too.”


    After listening to his story, Boss said, “Gavin, do you think intelligence is inherited?”


    “Yeah, absolutely!”


    “Then, what about talent?”


    Gavin looked at his employer as realization dawned upon him. “Are you trying to say that Ms. Watson


    might have inherited Theodore''s talent for hacking?”


    “Bingo. As expected, you''re smart too. It seems like your children had not only inherited their


    intelligence from your wife,” Boss praised Gavin.


    At that moment, Gavin thought about the other possibilities before saying, “I''ve never had something


    like this happen to me before, so I can''t be sure. But from what I know, if someone has a talent for


    something, it can be passed on to the person''s offspring.”


    “So, do you think she inherited Theodore''s talent for this?” Boss queried.


    After giving it some thought, Gavin answered, “I''m not sure.”


    “Then, look into it. Also, send this to our hacker team. Let them look at it and find out where this thing


    came from. I want to know the truth!” Boss enunciated, giving out orders.


    Upon hearing that, Gavin nodded, retrieved the chip, and went out.


    Meanwhile, Boss'' gazended on the ne on the table, unfathomable emotions swirling inside his


    eyes.


    Snippets of his time with Natasha shed across his mind. He had never understood why she was so


    confident.


    However, if things were like what he had deduced, then all would make sense.


    Is it really true, though? Could I be wrong about her?


    As he thought about the possibility, he wasn''t furious at all. Instead, a sudden sense of anticipation


    bubbled up within him.


    That was because he knew that sooner orter, she would return to his side one day.


    He had a feeling that this day wasing soon.


    As his train of thought stopped there, Boss gazed into the distance. A peculiar glint reflected off his


    yellow eyes.


    Meanwhile, when Natasha woke up, no one was in the room.


    She sat upright and felt that her stomach wasn''t hurting anymore. Recalling the scene where Keh


    lovingly rubbed and warmed her stomach up before she slept, a tender look surfaced in her eyes.


    When Keh shows some care, he can be so sweet that I might get diabetes.


    Lifting her nket, she was about to get down from the bed when the door opened slightly. In the next


    moment, she could see Benjamin poking his head in through the crack in the door.


    When the boy saw that she was awake, he said, “Nat, you''re up?”


    “Yes. Come in.” Natasha nodded and beckoned him in.


    Benjamin then pushed the door open wider and went inside.


    Before Natasha could get off the bed, Benjamin walked over and handed her slippers to her.


    As Natasha nced at the sensible little boy, she smiled.

    “Nat, are you feeling better now?” he asked.


    Huh?


    “Daddy said that you''re not feeling well, so we shouldn''t bother you,” he said with worry evident on his


    adorable little face.


    Natasha was speechless.


    She could almost imagine how Keh prevented the children from looking for her.


    Natasha chuckled. “Don''t listen to your daddy''s nonsense. I''m fine.”


    At that, Benjamin smiled. Then, he inched closer to Natasha, staring at her before asking, “Nat, when


    Daddy gets better, are you leaving?”


    Natasha nodded in affirmation. “I think so. Why?”


    “Nat...” Benjamin stared at her, hemmed and hawed, but still couldn''t get the words out of his mouth.


    “What do you want to say?” Natasha prompted.


    “Nat, did Anthony tell you that after everything is over, we might have to go to Darz?”


    She nodded. “Yeah.”


    “A-Are you okay with that?” he gingerly asked.


    “No,” Natasha replied.


    Uh...


    The boy stared at her, dumbfounded.


    Isn''t this different from what we agreed on?


    Natasha fixed her gaze on the boy''s face. “I don''t like that. No parent would want their children to go far


    away. However, for your sake, I can only say okay.”


    Benjamin looked at her and broke into a vibrant smile. “Don''t worry, Nat. When Anthony and I are free,


    we''ll visit you!”


    “Are you all leaving? When?” Natasha asked on the phone.


    “If nothing goes wrong, then we''ll leave two dayster,” Thalia said.


    Natasha stared at her son''s face. Though reluctant to see them leave, she still nodded. “Okay.”


    “Nat, I''ll keep youpany for these few days. How''s that?” Benjamin said.


    Knowing that they had never left her side before, too, Natasha understood that they were equally


    reluctant to part with her as well. Therefore, so as not to make them sadder than they already were,


    Natasha made sure to maintain a cheerful demeanor when she was around them.


    Smilingly, she questioned, “All right. What are we going to do?”
