Chapter 314

The female employee was stunned.

Thinking she had mistyped something, she checked it once again, then clicked to confirm that theinformation was correct. However, the result was still the same.

“Huh?” she murmured in confusion. She proceeded to look up Justin's name in the system and pulledup the records on his marriage registration.

“This...”

She stared at the laptop screen disbelievingly, then nudged the male employee next to her. Her voicetrembled as she asked, “I-Is there something wrong with my eyes? Could you help me take a look atthis?”

When he glanced at the screen, his jaw dropped.

“T-This... Sir, please come and have a look at this. Something doesn't seem quite right about Mr.Xuereb's records.”

The person in charge felt his heart lurch, and an ominous feeling descended over him.

He strode over to stand behind the two employees. When he saw what was on the screen, his facepaled.

How can this be? T-This... How is this possible? Why is there someone else's name in the box for Mr.Xuereb's spouse's name? Why does it show that he's already married?

“Have you made a mistake?”

The female employee pressed her lips together, then answered in a shaky voice, “No. That'simpossible. Look. It has Mr. Xuereb's photo here. How could it be a mistake?”

“She's right. There's even City Hall's official seal on it. There's no way it's a mistake.”

The person in charge was silent, and his knees started to buckle.

It was supposed to be the perfect opportunity to curry favor. As long as everything went well, Ms.Fletcher would forever remember how I was of help to her. But now, what was supposed to be a happyevent has turned into a nightmare. Who knows whether she'll have my head if she learns that we'vehelped Mr. Xuereb process a marriage registration before this?

“What's going on?” Scarlett asked in a low voice.

She was no fool, and their strange behavior did not escape her notice.

The person in charge gulped before asking uncomfortably, “M-Ms. Fletcher, there seems to be aproblem with our system. I'm afraid we won't be able to record your details today. How about Ipersonally make a trip to your house tomorrow to settle this for you?”

Scarlett snorted coldly. Do they truly take me for a pampered and naive princess who doesn'tunderstand how cunning people can be?

“Hand me the laptop.”

“That—”

Scarlett could not be bothered to waste time talking nonsense. She grabbed the laptop and lowered hergaze to look at the screen. Then, her pretty face started contorting with fury.

What the heck did I just read? Married? Veronique? Justin and Veronique have already applied for amarriage certificate. He already married that b*tch! Then why did he drag me all the way to City Hall? Isit so that we can make a fool of ourselves?

“Justin, you... You...”

Justin's brows drew together sharply when he saw the information displayed on the screen.

When did Veronique and I get married? Why don't I know that happened?

Amid his confusion, he also felt joy bubbling within him.

Nonetheless, it's neither the time nor the place to provoke Scarlett. After all, Zephyr is still waiting forher bone marrow so that he can be saved.

“That wasn't me. If it were, I wouldn't have brought you here. Lettie, we've known each other for years.You know I wouldn't be so mean to you, right?”

Scarlett took a deep breath. Then, tossing the laptop onto the table, she glared at the person in chargeand uttered through clenched teeth, “Did you hear that? Mr. Xuereb says he has never been here to

register a marriage. So, explain why Veronique's name appears as my fiancé’s spouse. If you fail toclear things up, you can sit and wait to get investigated for dereliction of duty.”

The man staggered and plopped onto a chair.

I don't doubt that she'll carry out her threat. If she says I'll be investigated and punished for derelictionof duty, I'll definitely end up in prison.

“G-Give me three days. No, one day! Just one day will do. I'll get to the bottom of this and give you asatisfactory answer.”

Scarlett's expression darkened, and she looked as though she wanted to continue berating him.However, Justin stopped her.

“Let's go. Give the man some time to investigate. To save his neck, I trust he'll give us a reasonableexplanation.”

The following day, Bailey sat by the window of the coffee shop on the corner, arching her brows as shegazed at the man opposite her in military uniform.

“May I know why you wanted to meet me, Mr. Fletcher?”

Raiden took his time pouring a cup of coffee and handing it to her. “There's no rush. Try the coffee hereand see what you think.”

She narrowed her eyes slightly.

I've never had any contact with anyone in the military. However, the way I see it, those in the militaryshould be straightforward. They wouldn't be prone to beating around the bush, let alone be calculative.Nonetheless, this privileged son of an official gives off such a mysterious air that I can't seem to readhim at all.

Raiden took a sip of his coffee. After a long pause, he finally spoke. “Ms. Jefferson, you truly havemany tricks up your sleeve. You used Spook's account to hack into City Hall's marriage registrationsystem and registered Justin Xuereb and Veronique Revelle as a married couple.”

What?

Bailey's eyes widened.

When did I hack into City Hall's marriage registration system to do such a thing?

As she pondered about it, realization suddenly dawned on her.

Zayron... I don't even need to guess to know that it must've been him that messed with the system. Butwhy did he do that? There can only be one reason—Zephyr found out about his background and askedhim to do it.

“You're good, Mr. Fletcher. I was so discreet and didn't expect you'd pick up on it.”

He narrowed his eyes. “No. Your reaction just now indicated that it wasn't your doing. You're coveringfor the person who was responsible.”

Her heart sank at those words.

What a sharp and clever man. The eldest son of the Fletcher family is terrifying indeed. I seem to havecrossed someone incredibly formidable.

“It was done using Spook's account. Hence, it all just comes back to me. Right? Alas, I'm afraid I mighthave to disappoint you. You can't harm me. Well, at least not before the International ProgrammingCompetition.”

Raiden did not say anything.

Slowly standing up, Bailey said with a smile, “If there's nothing else, I'll be going. The coffee wasactually pretty good. Please take your time to enjoy it.”

With that, she started walking toward the door.

“Wait a minute,” he called out. “I didn't ask to meet you to confront you. I actually wanted to talk to youabout the International Programming Competition.”

“Oh? And in what capacity would you be talking to me about such a confidential matter?” she asked,raising her eyebrows.

He looked up at her, then replied slowly and clearly, “The country has sent me to Hallsbay to be incharge of the competition. They want me to keep track of the participants at all times. Is that reasongood enough for you?”

She stared at him wordlessly.

“There's no need for you to feel pressured, Ms. Jefferson. I'm only here to guide you in the subsequenttasks. As long as you make our country proud and develop a complete source code, your previoushacking of the research institute's database will get written off.”

His response rendered Bailey speechless.

Over at Luther Group's headquarters, Artemis swept his gaze over the office opposite and frowned ashe asked, “Who did Bailey go to meet? Why isn't she back yet?”

Dwayne rolled his eyes and replied exasperatedly, “It hasn't been that long since you last saw her. Doyou have to get so worried? If you ask me, you should just pin her to your belt.”

Artemis glanced at him icily.

“All right. I'll tell you, okay? She went to meet with Raiden.”
