Although Tilda and the Comet Squad were exposed during the joint Endralsia rescue at Hotel Morloss, something did not add up.

It made sense that Sheldon could track it down. But Tobias?

How did he know? There was no way Sheldon told him.

Tobias smirked. “The way you’re looking at me tells me I’ve guessed right. At first, it was just a hunch. Back when terrorists attacked Hotel Morloss, I secretly planted a tiny signal transmitter. To keep them from noticing, I hid it so well only a few world–class hackers could ever pick it up. That was my gamble. After we were rescued, I checked the transmitter. Sure enough, someone had broken in.”

He removed his watch and handed it to Tilda.

Right in front of her, he tapped a few commands.

A soft blue light glowed from the back of the watch.

Tilda narrowed her eyes.

So that was it.

Back at Hotel Morloss, she had detected two faint signals.

One belonged to Dominic–she knew because it was the survival trick she had taught him.

The frequency matched.

The other signal had always been a mystery to Tilda. She had wondered again and again who had sent it.

She never expected it to be the man standing right in front of her–Tobias.

He had planned this as a backup. No wonder he had been able to charm Kyla and secretly drain so much of the Jensons‘ money in the past.

For someone branded an illegitimate son, Tobias was frighteningly capable.

“You wiped the traces clean,” Tobias said proudly. “Even I couldn’t tell for sure who broke into my transmitter. But I studied this field long enough to piece together a few clues. And I knew Mr. Oliveson would never just drop the matter.

“So not long ago, I tested him. From the way he spoke, I could tell he already knew who saved us back then. Once the target was confirmed, it was easy to lock down the suspect. I didn’t expect it to be you. But since you’re Dane’s junior, pulling such an operation off must’ve been simple for you.”

His words tumbled out faster and faster. Tobias was getting excited.

He looked like a detective lost in his deduction.

Revealing the truth gave him a thrill, as if he’d solved the greatest mystery of his life.

Tilda cut him off with a cool look. “Since you like analyzing my life so much, maybe I should analyze yours.”

Her gaze sharpened. “Tobias, you’ve been spending a lot of time with Kyla lately, haven’t you?”

The question landed like a thunderclap.

Tobias met Tilda’s deep, still eyes.

For a split second, his heart skipped a beat.
