Even though Myriade never deleted Renfrew's contact, she never thought that she would one day receive a message from him again. Hence, when she did, she was stunned.
Myriade: The psycho has disappeared for a long time. His phone has long been removed from my system… I can help you check the surveillance of Antellon. I have higher authority than you since I've spent so much time in Antellon.
Renfrew: Thanks.
Myriade looked at the singular word and full stop then pouted. Since he was asking for help, couldn't he say something nice?
Even though she was annoyed, Hesper was missing and it was done by a member of Daybreak. Myriade had to give him something because he was her only friend and her protégé, a child she watched grow up.
Hesper was… a mother figure.
Myriade pressed her lips together and turned around. Her fingers flew around the keys on her keyboard and a screen full of overwhelming code showed up. From that moment onward, all the surveillance cameras of Antellon now served Daybreak.
"And Big T…"
Myriade frowned as she sent a text to him.
Big T's patience was wearing thin with each attack on Hesper. Riley and Psycho might not be able to clear things up. Even though Myriade hated 013 and Riley, the latter was someone she had known since she was a child.
In this cold base of Daybreak, Riley was the first person who showed her kindness by bringing her a cheap lollipop.
Hesepr could hear her voice shaking but she continued. "Seth studied in Fredonia U. The first time I suspected him and had a video call with him, it did look like it was somewhere abroad and there were some students walking around in the background, so I changed my mind. However, when I got to Fredonia U and walked every corner, I couldn't find any place that looked similar to the background from that day, so I guessed that you pretended to be Seth and lied to Nate and me."
013 nodded then smiled. "I guess you never stopped suspecting Seth, or you wouldn't have paid so much attention to the background."
In fact, Hesper had never stopped suspecting him because when she first met Seth, she had a feeling that something was off with him.
Even though she didn't know the book in the corner of Seth's restaurant, she remembered it. When she looked into it, she realized that it was a book about psychology.
The nagging feeling kept lingering, so even when the video threw Hesper off, she still paid attention.
