"Facial recognition," she said. "I am … slowly trying to develop one. It is connected to the database of the police station. Again… this is a bit illegal."

She heard him chuckle. "Alright… "

"Ah, these are the people who walk in and out of the internet cafe in an hour window. Two male students and three adult men. I checked the bank accounts, the students are paupers because of some hentai subscriptions. The other two are normal employees but this man… received a hundred thousand in his bank account two weeks ago. He withdrew everything the next day. I traced the bank account but it was from an unknown account abroad."

"Untraceable?" he asked.

"When it comes to me, there is no such a thing as untraceable but it would take time. The security in their banks is more developed than our banks here."

To her surprise, he suddenly turned the chair around, making her face him. "How much?" he asked.

This made her smile. Mr. Quinn is indeed a businessman. "Hundred thousand in two days."

"I didn\'t know that your services are actually this cheap. I\'ll give you three hundred thousand if you do it in two days."

She smirked. "I was gonna charge four hundred thousand for sixteen hours."

"Sixteen hours?"

"Yes."

"Then… I need this information in sixteen hours. I will send the money to your account."

A satisfied smile appeared on her face. It seems that working with this man is actually not that bad. "Don\'t mind me, I just talk while working," Sera said. "But… If I am right, the person who spread the video should be the artist."

"Why do you say so?" he asked as he grabbed one of the white Nordic chairs at the corner of the room. Sitting next to her, he added, "Miss Ting had a gentle personality both inside and outside of the company."

"You seemed to know a lot about her?\' The irritation in her voice surprised her. She bit her lower lip and focused on the screen instead.

"I know a bit about my employees. I review each of their contracts."

"Oh?"

"You don\'t believe me?"

She only smiled in response. Quinn Media is actually a huge entertainment company in the northern part of Xu Country. Who would have thought that their CEO would actually be this involved? But then again, if he doesn\'t care about the company and his people, Quinn Media would never become one of the top ten companies in Xu Country.

The sound of Chris\'s phone interrupted them. "I will answer this. Excuse me." With that, he left her alone in the room.

After a few minutes, he came back, face dark. "Miss Ting posted something online. Her manager didn\'t know it."

"And you need to go back to Pane City?" she turned and face him.

"I should… but I won\'t." Chris shrugged. "I trust you."

"Huh?"

"You\'re gonna solve it in sixteen hours, right?"He gave her a knowing look.

She immediately wondered if her previous assumption about him being caring towards his employees was actually wrong. Perhaps, he is just another businessman out there? Heartless, cruel, and would always look into the profitable side of things.

Instead of answering him, she changed the topic. Actually, she could trace this poster in a few hours. However, she didn\'t want him to treat her as a monster. After all, not many people could actually do what she does in just a few hours. "It seems that there are actually rumors in your office about her sleeping with the boss."

"Where did you hear the rumors?"

"Forums… company forums. It\'s a lock server for your employees. Mostly cameramen and people behind the scenes. They are doubting her skills and are actually wondering if she slept with… you."

He was quick to lift one of his perfectly formed eyebrows. "How?"

"You mean how did that happen?" She fought the urge to laugh. "Your employees don\'t know what you look like. Some of them have conspiracies. They said you are just one of them, working silently observing your employees in the shadows. Someone said you are working as a janitor to spy on the beautiful actresses."

"And they thought I was sleeping with her?"

"Bingo! Mr. Quinn is really smart."

"Why not just show your face?\' she asked. What\'s with his secrecy?

"I can only show it if you agree to marry me."

This again? "Why?"

He rested his left elbow on the table and propped his chin on his palm as he looked at her side profile. "Because I want to be introduced as a married man. Can you imagine the trouble that I would face once women will see this face? I know a few families would not hesitate to drug me to sleep with their daughters and have some marriage alliance. How could I just spread my genes to those kinds of families?"

"…" She had never met anyone more shameless than this man!

"But if you marry me, then they would hesitate to do something."

"So, you wanted to use me as a shield?" she asked.

"You are my wife… not a shield."

"But you are going to treat me like one."

"I protect you, you protect me. Isn\'t that what marriage is for? For better and for worst. I promise to take out the garbage, in pouring rain or freezing ice. I promise to unclog the tub, even though you are the only one of us with long hair. I promise to protect you from people who wanted to treat you like a child because you look like one. I promise to spend the rest of my life protecting you from schemes. I also promise to give you my salary and let you buy whatever it is that you want! While you can just get rid of the women after me! How\'s that for a wedding vow?"

"..." That was the worst wedding vow that she heard! "I think I just found a concrete reason not to marry you."
