“What’s bad about it? Just get his contact information, and then you can chat with him regularly in the future and build a better relationship. Otherwise, how will you find him again if he goes offline after the two of you finish talking?”

Caleb added, “Do you want to wait until he hacks into your computer system again? That’s definitely not happening. Are you willing to lose his contact just like that?”
Timothy thought for a moment and said, “What you said makes sense, but how can I get his contact information? The kid seems to reject me. If I ask him for his contact information directly, he’ll definitely refuse.”
“That’s easy. Let me handle it.” Caleb took the keyboard and started typing, “It’s a long story. However, have signed a confidentiality agreement and cannot disclose it publicly. It might not be safe typing it out on this computer. After all, this is my work computer.”
Sage was leaming about the crucial part. He had just disclosed the story of the joint battle against terrorism by Nord City and Bern City, and his subordinates were waiting for him to pass on the message when there was more to the story.
If this man didn’t explain the crucial part now, how would Sage explain it when he went back?
Getting anxious, Sage asked, “What should we do then?”
“How about this? I’ll leave you a way to contact me, and I’ll take my time explaining it to you after I finish my work. You have to promise you won’t let anyone else know about this for no reason, though.” Sage hesitated when Caleb mentioned wanting his contact information.
Should he give it out or not?
Chapter 993
Sage thought for a moment and replied, “Okay.”
After all, he had another account. He would use his secondary WhatsApp account to add him, so he wouldn’t be discovered.
Once he had heard Timothy’s story, he would immediately delete his number so that the latter wouldn’t notice what Sage had done.
After all, Sage only wanted to hear the story. He didn’t really want Timothy’s contact information.
Soon, the two of them added each other’s contact on their phones, each with their own intentions.
Timothy was extremely excited when he saw the added number. He hadn’t expected Caleb’s method to actually work.
He managed to get the other twin’s contact information!
He had been desperately searching for the whereabouts of the other twin. Now that he had added the contact information so easily, it all felt like a dream. Caleb patted Timothy’s shoulder. “How’s that? You can never go wrong if you listen to me.”
“What should I say to him next?”
“Go ahead and transfer him some money,” Caleb replied.
But why did Timothy have to do that?
Making money wasn’t a problem for him. After all, he felt he owed the child so much. He would feel it was only fair even if he gave all his wealth to Sage.
But now, if he acted recklessly and let Sage know who he was, Sage would definitely delete his contact immediately.
Timothy was sure about this!
After all, Sage wasn’t as easy to coax as Ginger was.
Caleb typed this sentence and immediately sent it over. He took action before Timothy even said anything.
“Tim, actually, when it comes to pacifying the little hacker, the principle is simple. It’s just like when you want to catch the attention of that lady over there.” Timothy scolded, “Do you have to speak in riddles?”
Caleb continued to explain, “When you send a sentence like this, he will surely be curious.”
As soon as Caleb finished speaking, Sage sent a question mark, along with a sentence.
“Are you trying to buy me over with money?”
Timothy suddenly felt a headache. “So what should we do now?”
“It’s simple. You can just admit the truth.”
“Alright then, go on. Keep doing what you’re doing. If you dare to mess it up, I’ll break your legs,” Timothy warned.
Timothy placed the computer in front of Caleb, glaring at him as if to say, “You’re done for if you mess this up.”
Caleb took a deep breath. “I’m feeling a lot of pressure right now.”
“Hurry up and reply,” Timothy urged with a frown. “Don’t keep him waiting.”
Obediently, Caleb typed, “It’s not like you’re not someone who can be bought with money.”
Upon seeing this response, Sage snorted coldly. “You’ve got some sense. There’s no way I could be bought with money.”
If this man really intended to buy him with money, Sage would immediately delete hist not bother with the story
After all, since birth, his uncles had prepared many gifts for him and his sister.
He and his sister were both young millionaires now. In fact, their assets could even make it onto the rankings for millionaires.
Of course, their uncles had planned their assets accordingly, so their names wouldn’t appear on the rankings.
Caleb continued typing, “I thought of bribing you After with this monell
I can’t leave Nord City for the time because of some matter.

Upon reading this, Sage immediately responded, “You haven’t finished telling your story. How did you solve the situation back then? How did you send the villains to prison?”
The reason he had added this man’s contact was to hear the story, so he couldn’t let it veer off track.
Caleb raised an eyebrow, commenting, “This little hacker is pretty smart. He didn’t fall for it.”
“What should we reply now?” Timothy asked.
Chapter 994
One wrong move and things could go south. After all, children’s moods were the most unpredictable. Right then, Caleb closed the chat window.
“Tim, let’s not rush right now.”
Timothy couldn’t help panicking. “Don’t you see him asking a question? Hurry up and answer him!”
“It’s not the right time to answer. Let’s keep him hanging for a bit. Besides, you just said you have something to deal with later. “Since he wants an answer now, he won’t delete your number. At least not until you finish that story,” Caleb explained.
“Isn’t that obvious? What if he deletes my number right after I finish the story?”
“That’s a problem for next time. But if you tell him now, he might delete your number as soon as he hears about the story.”
“Are you sure about this?” Timothy asked skeptically.
“It’s a strategy called ‘luring him in by letting him go.’ You even told him you were trying to bribe him. He definitely won’t delete your number. His impression of you should also be much better now. After all, you were a hero of some sort.”
Timothy looked at the computer and replied, “I never considered myself a hero. At least to the child, I am an unforgivable sinner.”
“No. The term ‘unforgivable sinner’ falls short. To the kid, you are probably an irresponsible asshole.”
Hearing the word “asshole”, Timothy felt like he had been stabbed in the heart.
He snapped, “Shut up if you don’t know what to say.”
“You sure are quick to turn your back! I just helped you come up with a plan, added the little hacker on WhatsApp, and gave you the chance to chat with him a bit more. And yet, you’re turning your back on me. You really are an asshole,” Caleb remarked.
On the other side of the computer, Sage, seeing no reply in the chat box, angrily left the application.
How annoying! Why would the guy stop telling the story halfway through?
His subordinate sent another message then.
“Sir, how did your conversation with the hero go? What other secrets are there behind that legendary story from back then?”
“And how did they finally deal with those super-rich and arrogant youngsters?”
“Exactly, Sir. We just searched for that story again and watched the complete version. We heard there were some twists in the middle. The members of the alliance were all threatened by the terrorists. But despite all the pressure, doomBringer managed to find and expose all those terrorists in the end.
None of us know how he did it, though.”
Sage replied, frustrated, “I don’t know either. He didn’t continue with his story.”
“Aw shucks! Why not? Did the hero have something to attend to? Did he mention when he would continue?”
“He seemed to have some work to attend to. After all, he seemed to be in a meeting when we hacked in earlier.”
The subordinate who clearly remembered what they had done guiltily asked, “Sir, will the hero be upset that we disrupted his meeting when we hacked in earlier?” “Hmph. He’s just a fallen hero. What’s there to be upset about?” Sage retorted.

“Sir, honestly, if you had continued just now, you might not have won We’re not trying to take credit away from ourselves. But really, the hero from that era was really powerful.”
“Yeah! He’s been in retirement for many years, but not even the seven of us could beat him just now. You can clearly see the difference between him and us.”
