My Second Marriage with the Mafia Kingpin novel Chapter 532

Chapter 532: Took You Long Enough

"We can use that."

Warriyo followed his gaze. His expression didn’t change much, but the way he moved closer to Gin said enough.

The two stared at the computer system like hungry wolves eyeing fresh meat.

Black Dragon Corporation’s cybersecurity department was equipped with some of the most advanced technology available. However, there was something different about Ashley’s private system.

Gin didn’t know how she had built it.

He didn’t know where she had obtained its programs or why its security was unlike anything he had encountered before.

That was precisely why he had wanted to get his hands on it from the moment he first saw it. Just thinking about exploring it and using his skills on it, he knew it could take him to places.

He shifted his gaze toward Ashley, and a suspiciously sweet smile spread across his face.

"Right, Boss?" He hurried to her side and rubbed his hands together. "You promised you’d let me play with it, remember? That’s what you said, right? Right?"

Gin wiggled his brows, reminding her of the promise she had made to calm him down during their attack on Marshal’s base.

Warriyo quietly moved closer and allowed Gin to plead on behalf of them both.

Ashley chuckled. "I remember."

Gin clasped his hands together, his face lighting up. "Really—"

"But before I let you touch anything, I need you to find someone."

His excitement faded slightly. "Who?"

"Someone who can help us track Memphis." Ashley glanced at the blank board. "Knowing him, though, he probably went into hiding the moment he heard Marshal was dead."

Vodka raised a brow. "And who might that be?"

Everyone waited.

Some tried to guess who Ashley had in mind, but there weren’t many people in the underground capable of finding a man who had erased his own identity.

Ashley let the suspense linger for another second before she spoke.

"Omen."

Recognition slowly crossed their faces.

Omen was more than just a word. It was also the alias of one of the best hackers in the underground. Omen might not be Ghost, but finding him wouldn’t be easy either. If it were, he would have been caught by the countless people already hunting him.

Khan was the first to react.

"Omen?" he repeated. "Ghost’s disciple?"

Ashley tilted her head. "He is not anyone’s disciple, for your information."

But she knew those rumors were baseless. After all, she and Omen had worked together on occasion—not as partners, but through an exchange tied to some petty game Omen was addicted to.

"But why him?" Red asked. "If we need someone who can track Memphis, wouldn’t Ghost be the better choice? Ghost is already Dominion’s ally."

"It might be difficult. Even though Ghost is our ally, he’s temperamental. Whether he helps us or not is entirely up to him," Rus commented under his breath.

Murmurs of agreement went around the room for a second while Ashley scrunched up her nose.

"Why do all of you keep dragging Ghost into everything when I’m already here?" she complained. "I’m working hard too, you know?"

Nelek and Rus exchanged confused looks.

"Huh?" Everyone looked back at her.

"We know you’re working hard," Rus said carefully.

"But what does that have to do with Ghost?" Nelek added.

Ashley stared at them, blinking as if to ask whether they were serious. These men were good at what they did, but when it came to matters like this, they could be remarkably dense.
