Chapter 95

Kathie could feel Jonathan's deep affection, but now wasn't the time for romance. She changed the subject. "So, are you planning to let this go?"

Jonathan raised an eyebrow and smiled. She still wasn't ready to face his feelings head-on. No matter, he had plenty of time to make her admit it herself.

"Not a chance. I never let things slide."

Kathie thought for a moment. "How about wve use his own methods against him?"

Jonathan played along. "What do you have in mind?"

"Did you notice something off between Flynn and Ms. Mitchell? They were giving each other looks, and when we boarded the ship this afternoon,I saw a lot of red marks on her neck."

"Like the ones on you?"

"Bring that up again and I'm out of here."

Jonathan quickly apologized. "MMy bad. Go on."

"I looked into Flynn. He's reliant on his wife's family for power, and she controls the finances. Word is, she's a tough woman who keeps him on a short leash. What do you think would happen if she found out her husband was cheating?"

Kathie was still furious at Flynn for trying to harm them multiple times and nearly ruining her reputation. She had to get back at him.

Jonathan gave her a thumbs-up. "That's a great idea. I'll have Dennis pull

the surveillance footage. With that evidence, let's see how cocky he can be."

Kathie nodded. "Get Dennis on it quickly before Flynn deletes the videos."

Jonathan immediately instructed Dennis to handle it, but all the footage from the previous day had already been erased. Flynn hadn't left any evidence behind.

Kathie scoffed. "Flynn must be a repeat offender. He probably deletes the evidence right after every time to avoid getting caught by his wife."

"Looks like it. He's covered his tracks too well. We're at a dead end."

Kathie pondered for a moment. She couldn't let Flynn get away with this.

"Who says we're at a dead end? Call Ben on video."

"Why?"

Kathie smiled. "You don't know how talented my three kids are. Kyle's

hacking skills are top-notch. He can recover the deleted footage."

Jonathan smiled proudly. "They're amazing. I'm impressed."

"Call them now, before it's their bedtime," Kathie urged.

Jonathan quickly sent a video call request to Ben. When Ben answered,three adorable faces crowded the screen.

"Seven, can you see us?"

Even Kathie couldn't resist their cuIteness, and Jonathan was equally smitten.

Jonathan smiled. "I can see you. What are you up to?"

Eileen held up some playdough, smiling. "Seven, we're making clay figures today, but we're not very good at it."

Jonathan smiled warmly."Let Ben help you." Then he turned to Ben."Ben, make sure they finish their project. If they don't pass tomorrow,you'Il be signing up for a training class."

Ben was silent.

He was exhausted. Taking care of the kids and studying child psychology in his spare time was more tiring than work. He'd rather be traveling with Jonathan for business than dealing with these three little bosses.

Ben asked, "Got it. Mr. Berkeley. I'll do my best. When are you coming back?"

He didn't need the kids to ask; he wanted Jonathan and Kathie back as soon as possible.

Jonathan replied, "If all goes well, we should be back tomorrow night."

Kathie took the phone. "Kyle, come here. Mommy needs your help with something."

Kyle immediately got serious, signaling his siblings to be quiet. His leadership impressed Kathie.

"Mommy,what do you need?"

"I'm sending you an address. I need the surveillance footage from there.How long will it take you to recover it?"

"Ten minutes should be enough.".

"Kyle, you're amazing. Thank you. Mommy will be waiting for your message."

"Okay, I'll send it to your phone once it's done."

Kathie watched him work, marveling at how mature he was.

Tha..Jonathan was curious. "Did Kyle study hacking professionally?"

Kathie nodded. "He met a hacking expert abroad. Despite their age difference, they hit it off, and the expert taught him some techniques. Kyle learned everything and practices at home every day."

Jonathan smiled. "He's like me, quick to learn."

Kathie laughed. "Are you praising yourself? My kids have been smart since they were little. They must have inherited their dad's genes,though I have no idea who he is..."

Seeing Jonathan's displeased expression, Kathie awkwardly stopped. She couldn't be blamed for not knowing who the father was after being drugged all those years ago.

The tension was broken when Kyle sent the recovered footage.

As Kathie suspected, Flynn and Eleanor were having an affair. The footageclearly showed Eleanor knocking on Flynn's hotel room door and Flynn leaving with her the next morning, even kissing her at the door.

No wonder Flynn was so quick to delete the footage. If his wife saw it, she'd tear hím apart.

"Now that we have this, should we threaten him directly?"

Jonathan shook his head. "Not yet. This video is useful to me. I need to find out who leaked my company's bottom line."

He had his suspicions,but he needed to confirm them.

In the next room, Flynn was pacing, furious. "You said it was foolproof!Why wasn't Kathie in the room? I wanted to drive a wedge between her and Austin, but now their relationship is stronger."

Flynn had hoped to ruin Kathie's chances, but it backfired.

Eleanor was exasperated. "I didn't expect Kathie to be fine. We should have just knocked her out and put her on the bed."

"It's too late now. We need to win over Mr. Roberts. If we can't, we'll use any means necessary. I need that contract."

Eleanor suggested, "Mr. Campbell, how about we get him drunk, and I'll take some compromising photos with him? We can use them to blackmail him."

Flynn smiled, pinching her cheek. "Why didn't I think of that? I should have sent you to his bedfrom the start."

"Mr. Campbell, would you really send me to him?"

Flynn hugged her waist. "I don't want to, but for our future, you need to make some sacrifices. Once we have something on Mr. Roberts,he'll have to cooperate."

Flynn regretted focusing on punishing Kathie. If he'd known it would turn out like this, he would have sent Eleanor to Austin's bed. But now,they'd missed the perfect opportunity.
