Love in the Limelight

Chapter 45
Carson was a top–notch hacker, and was very well–known in the domestic hacker cycle.
If even Carson couldn’t dig up Astrid’s past four years, it meant that a more advanced hacker was helping Astrid hide past
information. It was hard to imagine this girl had so many secrets.
I It’s interesting
Elio asked, “What was the last time you investigated Jon’s background? Who are his family members?”
Carson replied, “Jon was born in Eastport to parents who were bot secondary school teachers, and he’s an only child, no
siblings.”
“No siblings?” Elio thought for a while, and it seemed that the information Jon released was also false.
This was a bit troublesome.
Originally, he wanted to investigate everyone in the girl’s family as much as possible, in case he offended someone when he was
not paying attention..
But now, he couldn’t find anything, the situation had become a little tricky.
Seeing Elio lost in thought, Carson, a bit scared, whispered, “Chief, I found the pilot who’s been backing up Ms. Irvine.”
Elio hit the elevator button, and asked, “What’s his name?”
Carson replied, “Mack...”
Elio was silent for a moment.
Could that name be more fake?
Carson went on, “I couldn’t find any details about this person, only that he is the head of Ms. Irvine’s fan club. I will look into it
tonight.”
Elio said, “You’re not capable, I’ll handle it myself.”

Not capable???
He’s been rejected by the him again.
After all, Elio was one of the world’s top hackers.
An hour later, at Astrid’s house.
Astrid and Roman were resting on the sofa after eating and drinking.
Jon was in the kitchen, and the sound of bowls breaking could be heard from time to time in the kitchen...
Roman couldn’t resist, “You’re really clumsy.”
Hearing this, Astrid laughed out loud, shouting towards the kitchen, “Jon, you can’t even wash dishes properly, what can you do
besides gaming?” The word ‘gaming‘ immediately lit up Roman’s eyes.
He grabbed Astrid’s hand, and said beseechingly, “Will you game with me, please?“,
Astrid replied, “Sure, no problem! I’m a pro at gaming!” She quickly fetched the game console and controllers and started gaming
with Roman.
The game Astrid introduced to Roman was a new one her company was beta testing, and he was hooked the moment he started
playing. Her phone buzzed, and she picked it up to find a message.
A message from Chad read, “Chief, a strong hacker is digging into your info, if you don’t step in, your identity might be exposed.”
Seeing the message, Astrid immediately stood up.
If her identity was exposed, wouldn’t she lose her bet?
Astrid replied to Chad, “You and Hank hold on for a while, I’ll take care of it.”
Chad replied, “Roger that, Chief.”
Astrid looked at Roman, totally engrossed in the game, gently patted his head and said, “Roman, game on your own for a bit, I
have some things to handle.”

“Okay.” Roman didn’t break his concentration, still focusing on the game.
Astrid got up, quickly walked into her room, and booted up her computer.
Although this computer looked plain, it was actually top–of–the–line. The last computer was damaged in a fire;. This one was
new and hadn’t been used. Once the computer was up, Chad provided the man’s IP, Astrid immediately started hacking.
Meanwhile, in Elio’s study.
Elio was intensely working on breaching the firewall, just as he found a loophole and was about to penetrate, all his screens in
front of him suddenly went black. Then, a cocky message popped up on the screen, “Hey, kid, why you snooping around my
info?”
