Bethan pushed Arthur into the office chair. “Deal!”
With that settled, Arthur sat down.

Bethan nervously glanced at the study door. “Hurry up. If he comes back and catches you here, I’ll tell him you broke in.”
Arthur’s fingers danced on the keyboard as he quipped. “If your husband catches me here, I’ll tell him you seduced me and wanted to keep me as your boy-toy.”
Bethan chose to stay silent.
She knew she couldn’t win this banter.
A few moments later, Arthur slid the mouse over to Bethan. “There are tons of encrypted files. Which one are you after?”
Bethan leaned in, and her sharp eyes zeroed in on the initials of Megan’s name. “Help me crack the password for this one.”

In no time, Arthur cracked it. Bethan quickly scrolled down the page with the mouse.
It turned out that Hugh had been secretly looking into
Megan.
The file had all of Megan’s life details during the six years. she lived in Canada.
As Bethan read on, her heart sank. She never thought Megan had such a rough life in the past six years.
No wonder Hugh protected and loved her so much.
Bethan plugged in a USB drive and copied the file.
She wasn’t ready to give up and started rummaging through Hugh’s computer right away.
The Cavill family’s business was all over the world, making them the top family in New York.
She didn’t believe their businesses were all on the
up-and-up.
Should she uncover some dirt on Hugh from this

computer, there’d be no stopping her from ending this marriage.
However, even after scrolling all the way to the bottom, Bethan found no suspicious files.
Just as she was about to throw in the towel, she saw another name-Leonard Harper.
He was Hugh’s half-brother, the illegitimate child of the Cavill family that everyone kept hush-hush.
Bethan nervously peeked at the study door and pointed at the computer screen. “Mr. Locke, crack this file’s password, too.”
Arthur tried and realized the password was specially encrypted.
He got all excited. “What’s in there that needs such a fancy encryption?”
His long fingers danced on the keyboard. “Bethy, your husband’s got some tricks up his sleeve.”
Béthan couldn’t care less.

She kept her eyes glued to the study door. “Hurry it up.”
She didn’t even want to think about what would happen if Hugh caught her having someone crack his computer codes.
A few minutes later, Arthur finally let out a sigh of relief. “Got it.”
Bethan leaned in to check the file.
No wonder the Cavill family hadn’t mentioned this illegitimate child lately.
It turned out Leonard had died four years ago.
Bethan scrolled down.
Four years ago, at the Lake Louise Ski Resort in Canada, there was a temporary glitch on the ski slope, and he died in an accident.
Without a second thought, Bethan copied the file to the USB drive.

Just then, Bethan’s phone rang.
Both of them, feeling like common thieves, gasped in surprise.
Arthur jumped off the chair and hid behind Bethan.
Startled by Arthur, Bethan’s face went pale.
She patted her chest hard and glanced at the phone on
the table.
Seeing it was Hugh calling, Bethan let out a long sigh of relief.
It seemed he wouldn’t be back anytime soon.
Bethan asked Arthur to restore the password and shut down the computer. Then she rushed out to answer the
call.
In the hospital corridor, after hanging up with Bethan, Hugh walked into the ward.
After over an hour of chaos, Hudson was fast asleep in The hospital bed.

Megan saw Hugh come in and said gratefully, “Thank
goodness you were here tonight. I don’t know what I’d have done without you.”
Under Hugh’s intense gaze, Megan felt uncomfortable.
