Chapter 368


    Fixing his gaze on the door, Fabian appeared a little hesitant.


    Just then, Keh whipped his head around to look at him with displeasure written all over his face.


    “Do you not hear what I say?”


    “T-That''s not it, Mr. Hamilton... But there''s no need to get someone to unlock the door.” As he said


    that, he walked up and gazed at the lock before turning to Keh. “I know how to do it...”


    Keh narrowed his eyes.


    A moment of silence ensued before Fabian finally spoke up. “T-Then... shall I open it now?”


    Keh’s brows creased as a cial glint shed across his eyes.


    Upon getting the signal, Fabian, without asking more questions, started running his fingers across


    the digital lock. It seemed that he was merely keying in a bunch of random numbers, yet at the


    same time, it sounded like a rhythmic tapping. Watching him from behind, Keh had his brows


    furrowed together as an uneasy sensation gripped him.


    He secretly wished that it was merely overthinking on his part.


    That few minutes of standing behind and watching Fabian trying to unlock the door almost felt as


    long as a century.


    After several tries, Fabian finally opened the door.


    He turned to look at Keh.


    Without saying anything, thetter stepped forward, pulled open the door, and walked in.


    Seeing that, Fabian quickly trailed behind.


    Inside, everything remained as before. Unlike expectations, the apartment was not as messy and


    had no signs of a fight.


    After a brief scan of the surroundings, Keh boldly advanced toward Natasha''s bedroom.


    With every step he took, he felt as though there was something heavy constantly pounding on his


    chest.


    Right before the door, however, he halted in his steps.


    Emptiness filled his gaze as he looked inside.


    The bed was so neat it showed no signs of someone sleeping on itst night.


    So, does that mean she didn’t sleep after I sent her back yesterday?


    Fabian walked over. When he saw that there was no one in the bedroom, his brows became tightly


    knitted.


    “Mr. Hamilton...”


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    “Fabian, give Prosper Technologies a call. Find out if Natasha went to work.” Keh''s frosty voice,


    coupled with his strained muscle along his jaw, made him appear especially frigid and forbidding.


    Even though he knew such a possibility was almost non-existent, he still held onto thatst straw of


    hope.


    Hearing themand, Fabian bobbed his head and walked away to make the call.


    When Keh got inside, he noticed that there were not many changes. Natasha''s clothes and


    footwear were still ced neatly in their positions. It was almost as if she had only left for work for


    the day.


    Several minutester, Fabian returned with a hesitant look on his face. “Mr. Hamilton, Ms. Watson


    didn''t go to work today. Mr. Yondel says—”


    “What did he say?”


    “He said that Ms. Watson applied for leave.”


    “Applied for leave? When?”


    “Two days ago.”


    “Did he not tell you the reason?”


    Fabian shook his head. “No.”


    Keh clenched his fists. His face turned increasingly cold and grim as malice filled his pair of


    dark eyes. “Mr. Hamilton, do you think it''s the doings of that mastermind? He purposely left that note


    to show that he has taken Ms. Watson with him...” Fabian said concernedly.


    “Even if it''s him, he can''t possibly take her away without causing any stirs. Natasha isn''t that weak.


    Besides, he''s injured. And everyone was gathered at the jettyst night. They didn’t have the time to


    take action,” Keh analyzed.


    “Then is there another meaning for that person to leave that note? But where else could Ms.


    Watson go?” Fabian was baffled.


    Keh looked toward the interior of the room. It doesn''t look as if any ravage sessions urred in


    here before. It''s more like the silence after one runs away from home.


    “Fabian.”


    “Yes, Mr. Hamilton.”


    “Go search if there are surveince cameras that managed to capture footage of Vermillion Base


    leaving the country. Also, help me check on Natasha''s location. I want to know where she is right


    now!” Keh spat those words icily.


    “Got it. I’ll get it done right away.”


    With that, Fabian went to make another call.


    Meanwhile, Keh stood by the bedroom door, his lips tightly pursed and eyes scanning through


    every corner. Shortly after, he retracted his gaze and walked out without any expression on his face.


    Natasha, this better be a misunderstanding. Otherwise, don''t you me me for ying hardball!


    In the car, Fabian was driving while Keh sat in the passenger seat at the back. Thetter wore


    a stiffened facial expression and was radiating an unyielding vibe.


    It was so overpowering Fabian dared not utter a single word.


    Essentially, he still knew his ce and was clear about when was the right time to joke around.


    Right then, his phone rang.


    Fabian immediately answered the call.


    “Hello.”


    Hearing those words from the other end of the line, Fabian muttered, “All right. I understand. Send


    the video to me. Also, how are things going with the address I asked you to check?” There was a


    slight pause as he listened to the caller''s reply. “What? Okay, I got it."


    As Fabian concluded the call, a notification popped up on his phone.


    He forwarded the video to Keh right away.


    “Mr. Hamilton, this is the surveince footage of Vermillion Base leaving the country, allbined


    into one video. But I heard that only a few of them were present, and they didn''t carry many


    belongings either. So, it''s impossible they took Ms. Watson with them! As for Ms. Watson...”


    Keh stared at his back. “Go on!” “They said that Ms. Watson''s location is always different every


    time they checked. It''s all around the country. It''s likely that it has been programmed, so there’s no


    way to locate her actual location,” Fabian said.


    He was, in truth, surprised to hear that. After all, his friends were the top hackers in the world. Yet,


    they could not find Natasha''s location either.


    As much as he was aware that Natasha was technologicallypetent, it was rare that there would


    be someone who could leave all his friendspletely powerless.


    Mystification filled Fabian in that instant.


    Keh lifted the corners of his lips into a cold smirk upon hearing that piece of news.


    Exactly. How could I forget that Natasha is Shadow Seeker? She''s that legendary figure in the


    hacker world no one could beat to date. If she doesn''t want anyone to find out, how is it possible


    that she would leave any leads behind? Even if someone manages to track her down, is it really


    worth believing?


    It was then that Keh became absolutely convinced.


    Natasha, are you trying to y the trick of leaving without saying goodbye?


    Leaning back in his seat, Keh gradually lost his attention as he fiddled with the cufflink on his


    right arm. It was a habit of his whenever he was racking his brain.


    No wonder Natasha seems to be a little odd thest two days. She was extra gentle and agreed to


    all my requests and demands. Even when I asked to move back to the manor, she acted abnormally


    and didn''t refuse at all. I was still shocked by that. But now that I think about it, she has probably


    already made a decision long ago. And now, she must''ve taken to this step because she wants to


    tell me something...


    Thinking about that, the man felt his heart skip a beat.


    Natasha, are you so sure that I''ll act ording to your ns? Listen, don''t even think about that.


    You d better not let me find you. Otherwise, I''ll never let you get away with this!


    Keh''s eyes were gradually filled with ruthlessness.
