Feel the Way You Feel, My Love novel Chapter 1073

That caused the lead guard to bow his head even lower. “She escaped in a van after we chased her out of the jewelry market. We could only watch her slip away as we weren’t able to keep up on foot.”

“I don’t think it’d be reasonable to blame them for not being able to outrun a vehicle.” Natalie exhaled.

As disappointed as she was by the outcome, she remained sympathetic and found no justification for being upset with them.

“In which direction was Jacqueline last headed? Do you still remember the license plate?” Shane asked as he regarded the man.

“Toward the university town. I still remember the license plate,” he affirmed.

“Good.” Shane nodded before he turned to Natalie. “Go get Connor down here.”

Natalie grunted. She understood that he intended to have Connor locate Jacqueline using the direction of her escape and the van’s license plate and thus went up to bring her son downstairs.

Shortly after, Natalie returned with both of her children, and the boy Connor had a handy little laptop in his clutches.

It was one that Shane had custom-built for him. With superior battery life and high-end specifications, it was a machine capable of handling elaborate calculations.

After Connor learned what his father needed of him, he switched on the computer with his diminutive fingers and started to tap away on the keyboard in a flurry.

Sally’s and Lina’s jaws were agape as they observed at the side.

“Hey, do you understand what’s going on here?” whispered Lina as she nudged at Sally with an elbow.

Sally gulped. “You may not know this, but Connor’s a hacker and a very good one at that.”

“What? This little kid? A hacker?” Lina exclaimed.

Natalie furrowed her brows. “Does that mean we’ve lost track of her for a second time?”

“Yeah.” Connor nodded. “But I have an idea how we might be able to find her, and that’s by hacking into the satellite surveillance system and using it to locate her.”

“No!” a solemn Shane resolutely rejected that proposal. “You’re not to hack into the satellite systems regardless of wherever you may be. Is that clear, Connor?”

He regarded his son with an earnestness that got Natalie looking quite serious as well. “Yes. Listen to your daddy, Connor.”

As they were overseas, should the government of such a country discover their systems being hacked and find their way to Connor, they would not likely allow the boy to return to his own country. With the immense ability demonstrated at his tender age, Connor might even be forcibly detained in view of being nurtured into becoming one of their own. That meant that the boy might never be able to go back home again.

It would be the same for the authorities in their home country who would similarly not allow Connor to continue staying with the Thompson family and likewise take him away.

Hence, Shane and herself would rather employ the least efficient methods to try to track down Jacqueline than allow their own son to hack into the satellite, even though that might be the quickest way for them to pinpoint their targets.
