Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 1869

Taylor's computer skills had been honed under Helen's careful guidance. While he wasn't on par with the world's elite hackers, he was more than capable of bypassing standard firewalls.

After a few attempts, he successfully infiltrated the target network and began searching for any unusual transactions.

Everything was going smoothly. Nonetheless, the ease of it all felt strangely out of place. His well-honed instincts kicked in, and he quickly sensed something wasn't right.

Rising from his chair, he stepped toward the window, positioning himself behind the wall for cover. He then pulled back a corner of the curtain to get a clearer view outside.

A gray sedan was parked across the street. All the windows were rolled up, and it appeared to have been there for quite a while.

Taylor dropped the curtain and turned back to the room, his expression now serious. The surrounding houses were all empty, and he had chosen this location specifically for its privacy and isolation.

It was obvious that the car wasn't there to meet anyone. It could only mean one thing—the people inside were watching him.

As Taylor's attention wavered, the blaring sound of engines filled the air. It was evident that multiple vehicles were approaching, all heading toward the same spot.

Without a second thought, Taylor sprang into action. He quickly returned to his desk and hit the self-destruct button. In one swift movement, he jumped through the bedroom window.

Within moments, a squad of uniformed police officers from Morg stormed in, swiftly securing the premises. Aiden followed closely behind, accompanied by a senior investigator.

"Report, sir. The suspect has fled!" one officer shouted urgently.

Aiden's eyes were drawn immediately to the computer. "This is the key evidence. Every computer has a serial number. If we take it, we can trace whether it was used to infiltrate our company's internal network."

And so, Taylor became a fugitive.

In line with protocol, the entire house was immediately sealed off.

Halfway home, Lucy realized she had left her phone at Taylor's place. Without a second thought, she turned around to go back and grab it.

As she reached the door, she saw Aiden leading a group of officers out. His face was stern, clearly reflecting a foul mood.

The memory of the tense exchange between Taylor and Aiden at the hospital rushed back, and a feeling of unease crept into Lucy's chest.

She quickly stepped forward and blocked Aiden's path. "Aiden, what's happening? Why are there so many police officers here?"
