Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 982

Tarquin quizzed, "So, that publishing house is a tough nut to crack, huh?"

The two kids shook their heads in unison.

"You wouldn't believe it, but their security system is even more sophisticated than the Bradford Group's. We tried several times and failed miserably. Couldn't breach it!"

"A publishing house, for crying out loud, not some kind of top-secret government facility, and they've got this high-end security? That's fishy!"

"And get this – their annual profits don't even come close to what the Bradford Group makes in a month. Where on earth are they getting the money to afford such a top-notch security system? Something's off with that publisher!"

The brothers were clearly agitated, their frustration evident.

After all, when two top hackers team up and still can't break in, you know the publishing house's security is no joke!

Tarquin frowned, "Did you check out the owner listed on their website?"

"Yep, just a figurehead, a regular Joe. Nothing juicy about him."

Elijah chimed in, "Dad, could the publishing house be the mystery man's hideout?"

Tarquin neither confirmed nor denied, "Can't say for sure yet."

But it was clear as day – there was something big brewing with that publishing house!

Karl Town was also under suspicion!

Given that Verity's son lived in Karl Town and worked at that very publishing house, it was no mere coincidence!

There had to be a connection between her, her son, and the mystery man!

"Anything suspicious about Verity's relationship with her son's adoptive parents?"

The kids looked downcast, "All above board. No links between them that we could find, nor any clue about the kid's biological father. Came up empty."

The duo was clearly disheartened today!

Tarquin let out a sigh, trying to reassure them, "If my hunch is right, Karl Town is the mystery man's headquarters. It's normal you couldn't dig up anything on them.
