The True Heiress Returns (Tilda Jenson) novel Chapter 174

Chapter 174 Reunion at the Base

River couldn’t help but be impressed by how calm and clear–headed Tilda was.

This wasn’t an act.

River knew it for sure.

After about an hour and a half of driving, the car finally halted.

River got out with Tilda.

“Kaleb, go report in. I’ll take Queen from here,” River said.

“But I- Kaleb started. He knew his job came first; his rational thinking finally overcame his feelings.

He had no choice but to watch River and Tilda walk away

They walked forward for about 20 minutes. Then, with a soft ding; a mechanical door slid open.

River led Tilda inside.

The elevator hummed and descended for about a minute before it came to a stop

The doors opened.

Tilda remained calm the whole time.”

River took off Tilda’s blindfold.

“Sorry, Queen. This was just protocol,” River apologized.

“I understand,” Tilda replied, rubbing her arm.

She stepped into a security checkpoint.

Countless red and green lights swept over her, scanning for anything suspicious.

The machines scanned her ID, did a magnetic check, ran all kinds of background searches, and made sure she wasn’t carrying anything she shouldn’t have.”

After she cleared every scan, did the next mechanical door open?

Inside was a conference room. A long table, chairs, a big screen, cameras, a TV, and even a small plant.

The lighting was bright white.

As Tilda looked around, the door of the conference room opened.

Manfred, in a military uniform, walked in.

Tilda could tell right away that Manfred was no ordinary guy.

Her mind raced, recalling everything she knew about him.

Manfred offered his hand and smiled. “Nice to meet you, Queen.”

Tilda shook his hand and said calmly, “Nice to meet you, too, Mr. Parker.”

“So you already know who I am. That makes this easier,” Manfred said.

“Honestly, I’m surprised. The legendary Queen, top hacker of the dark web, turns out to be a nineteen–year- old college sophomore. You’ve been helping our research team solve problems for a few years now. That means you were just in high school when you started.”

He spoke in amazement.

Her talent was way beyond that of a young prodigy.

Manfred rubbed his temples. “I know. Honestly, I’m starting to regret telling Professor Kerrigan about Queen at all. But he insisted–he even said he’d quit all his research unless he could meet her in person. What am I supposed to do?”

What?!
