Magic Strategy Group.
Henna held Eddie's hand at the front desk, filled with confusion.
She actually believed the words of a seven-year-old child.
Henna couldn't understand why Angela would have any connection with the CEO of Magic Strategy Group. Although she didn't know much about Carlos, the CEO of Magic Strategy Group, a billionaire, how could he be involved in a kidnapping?
But in Henna's mind, Eddie was a genius.
The acquaintance between Angela and Henna was also because of Eddie.
Henna used to be Eddie's kindergarten caregiver, and later became friends with Angela.
Although Eddie appeared silly and cute in front of Angela, not much different from other six or seven-year-old children, Henna inadvertently discovered the extraordinary talent of this child.
Henna knew one of Eddie's identities: he was not yet seven years old but was already the youngest member of the Technology Society, with the code name MIO!
This club was known as the world's top high IQ club, with high IQ being the only criterion for membership.
In the club, Eddie was the member with the highest IQ and the youngest age.
Eddie sat on the sofa, holding a handheld computer in one hand and typing on the keyboard with the other, his fingers flying as he entered commands. Using the virus he developed, he successfully breached the system of Magic Strategy Group and accessed Carlos's schedule.
At the front desk, Henna was still arguing with the front desk manager.
The manager was angry.
"Mr. Murphy isn't someone you can just see whenever you want! If you don't leave, I'll call security!"
Several security guards approached, ready to escort Henna out, when a voice rang out.
"Don't touch her!"
Everyone turned towards the voice.
Eddie stood with his hands behind his back, like a graceful young gentleman, his azure eyes calm but filled with a strong threat.
"In ten minutes, get Carlos to see me. If not, I'll crash your company's system, and trust me, you won't like the fallout."
The manager sneered.
"Who does this kid think he is, throwing around the CEO's name like that? Get him out of here with her!"
The bodyguards moved towards Eddie.
However, Eddie remained calm, giving a faint smile and raising three fingers.
"Three."
Eddie began counting down.
The onlookers watched him with suspicion.
"Two."
With a snap of his fingers, Eddie raised an eyebrow lightly.
"One!"
BOOM!
A row of computers at the front desk emitted a piercing noise.
A sudden cry came from the front desk.
The manager turned around to see several people frantically manipulating the system, and he was furious.
"What's happening?"
"The system has crashed!"
They stared at the dialogue boxes continuously popping up on the screens, the entire system completely paralyzed.
"It's a virus! The company's network got hit by a virus attack!"
Shortly after, an animated page popped up on the screen, featuring a little pig wiggling its round buttocks.
Just as Carlos emerged from the meeting room, he received a notification from his subordinates.
The local defense network of Magic Strategy Group had been breached by a seven-year-old child. Now, all the hosts of Magic Strategy Group were occupied by a dancing pig on the desktop, causing the work network to crash.
Mike approached Carlos and said, "The child who breached the company's system is named Eddie and has been brought to the meeting room. Mr. Murphy, do you want to see him?"
Carlos was furious, his gaze cold and seemingly capable of killing.
The defense network of the entire Magic Strategy Group had been established by top programmers, costing millions.
Now that the defense network had been breached, just rebuilding the system would result in a loss of millions of dollars.
And the culprit was a seven-year-old child?
Carlos pushed open the door.
The child sat on the sofa, his snowy and adorable profile looking handsome and refined.
Eddie turned his face, locking eyes with Carlos, a slight smirk playing on his lips, tinged with a hint of disdain.
Carlos, in a moment of daze, almost saw a miniature version of Angela.
This child was only six or seven years old, dressed plainly, but exuding the demeanor of a noble young gentleman in his every move.
His features resembled Angela's a lot, but his expressions and micro-expressions were eerily similar to Carlos.
Henna sat beside them, feeling somewhat apprehensive upon seeing Carlos.
Eddie raised his pristine face, momentarily taken aback upon seeing Carlos.
He had thought Carlos would be a middle-aged man with a big belly, but he turned out to be so young and astonishingly handsome.
But regardless, the priority was to rescue Angela.
Eddie coldly stated, "Carlos, hand over my Mom!"
The child's lips curled up, a smile on his face, but his eyes were filled with icy contempt.
Carlos furrowed his brows slightly.
"Who is your Mom?"
"Angela," Eddie questioned, "Is she in your hands?"
Upon hearing Angela's name, Carlos involuntarily pursed his lips.
Angela claimed she never had a son. Wasn't this child clear evidence to the contrary?
She dared to deceive him.
Carlos sat across from Eddie, elegantly crossing his legs, his slender fingers brushing his lips as he tentatively asked, "Are you so sure she's with me?"
Henna also felt a bit uneasy and gently tugged at Eddie's sleeve.
"Eddie, are you sure you're not mistaken?"
This was Carlos!
The most prestigious man in Barcelonna, how could he possibly be a kidnapper?
Eddie said, "Carlos, if I'm asking you for her, I'm sure she's with you. So, either give me back my mom, or..."Mom
"Or what?" Carlos interrupted.
Eddie continued, "Don't force me to act, otherwise, you'll end up looking very ugly in the end!"
Carlos chuckled lightly.
"Are you threatening me?"
He was actually being threatened by a seven-year-old child.
Mike approached, whispering to Carlos, "Mr. Murphy, we found the info."
He handed Carlos a document.
Carlos opened the file. In just one day, as his trusted assistant, everything about Angela had been thoroughly investigated.
The information about the mother and son had been sorted out and was crystal clear.
Carlos flipped through the pages, from Angela's family background to her prenatal records and Eddie's birth medical records, all listed clearly.
The documents showed that Angela was pregnant with twins, and when she registered for pregnancy, she listed the name of a stranger in the father's column.
During Angela's delivery, the person who signed the surgical procedure was him.
Robin Langley.
Could this man be the real dad of this child?
This crucial piece of information quickly caught Carlos's attention.
He meticulously examined the key points in this woman's life.
Twins, private clinic, premature birth, one of the children passed away.
Two children, but only one survived?
Could it be?
This damn woman had an affair? While he was severely injured and unconscious, she dared to have an affair under the name of "Mrs. Murphy"?
Carlos's suspicious gaze fell on Eddie's face, carefully searching for clues between the child's features.
It was said that boys usually resembled their mothers more. This trait was evident in Eddie from a young age. He hadn't fully grown up yet, but at a glance, it was clear that he was a replica of Angela. Apart from this, there were no other clues.
This child was the evidence of Angela's affair.
Even though he never really considered his marriage to Angela real, she was still technically his wife. The idea that she had the nerve to cheat while being part of the Murphy family made Carlos's eyes darken with anger.
She had the guts to cheat?
