The Bigshot Married Himself to the Heiress-Chapter 665 - 706: Who is the Mole?

Adrian Desmond watched as Sienna Johnson stormed out in a rage and slammed the door behind her. He let out a silent sigh.

In the screening room, the movie continued to play, the sound effects exceptionally realistic. It seemed as though he was right in the midst of a hail of bullets and gunfire. He had experienced such scenes before, far more dangerous than what was depicted on screen.

Adrian took out his lighter and burned the note Sienna had written to ashes.

As the movie lights flickered, Adrian’s expression grew obscure.

"Night Owl, who let you in?" he stared at the movie screen and whispered.

He had thought his defenses on Unnamed Island were impenetrable, but now Night Owl and his brother were coming and going as they pleased, as if it were an unguarded place. The island’s defenses couldn’t possibly allow someone to enter undetected, unless... someone was assisting Night Owl.

Could there be a traitor among his confidants, those able to enter Unnamed Island?

Adrian called Walter Klein over and instructed him, "Investigate our defensive personnel and find out where the breach is that allows people to come and go so easily. Also, get Aaron Faber to examine the island’s surveillance system for any vulnerabilities!"

Upon hearing the urgency in Adrian’s words, Walter asked, "Sixth Master, has something happened?" 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

"Night Owl is here."

Walter lowered his head and explained, "I only received news that Shade Jervois was here. Wasn’t it Shade Jervois who entered Unnamed Island today? Could it be Night Owl?"

"It *is* Night Owl!"

Walter’s heart dropped, and he quickly lowered his head, respectfully saying to Adrian, "Sixth Master, I’ll investigate right away!"

Adrian sat there without moving. The movie had already finished, and the screening room lights automatically came on, illuminating the room brightly.

「...」

In the bedroom, Sienna Johnson sat on the bed and showed Aaron Faber her leg with the anklet.

Aaron had brought a toolbox filled with various tools. With a tiny magnifying glass over his left eye, he examined the anklet on Sienna’s leg with gloved hands.

Music played in the room as Sienna typed on her phone and showed Aaron the message.

—How is it? Can you open it?

Aaron typed back on Sienna’s phone, "I can open it, but a bomb is also installed on it. If it’s forcibly opened without the password, the bomb will automatically activate. I don’t know how much time there will be once it’s triggered. If it explodes instantly, it will be very dangerous."

Sienna looked at the anklet on her leg, feeling devastated and on the verge of tears.

Was she fated to wear this thing and be constantly monitored?

Adrian’s expression darkened further. He was already furious about the infiltration, and now Night Owl had put something like a dog collar on his woman. Is Night Owl trying to tell her that Sienna Johnson is his property?

Night Owl!

Adrian cursed the name in his heart, looking as if he wanted to tear the man to pieces.

All three of them were disheartened.

Music continued to play, but everything sounded muted to Sienna. Her mood was terrible.

Adrian left the room. Aaron scratched his nose with an awkward expression, gestured a farewell to Sienna, and left as well.

—Thank you! Sienna mouthed.

「...」

Adrian left his bedroom and went straight to his daughter’s room.

His daughter was still sleeping. Perhaps because of the heat, her forehead was sweating, and the small blanket had long been kicked to the floor.

Adrian picked up the blanket, folded it, and placed it on the bedside table. He then went to the bathroom, wrung out a wet towel, and returned to gently wipe the sweat from her face.

The coolness of the towel startled Curly awake, and she suddenly waved her arms, hitting Adrian.

"Curly, it’s all right. Go back to sleep." He didn’t dare continue wiping her face and put the towel away.

The room temperature was indeed high, so he opened the window, allowing the sea breeze to enter and instantly cool the room.

He drew the window screen to lessen the wind’s force. Through the screen, Adrian gazed at the boundless Ocean, his thoughts turning to Night Owl.

Night Owl was like a sword hanging over his neck, making it hard for him to eat or sleep. He deeply regretted not having cut off Night Owl’s head back then.

Today, Night Owl had actually snuck into his daughter’s room and cut off a lock of her hair! How could Adrian not be alarmed by this?

"Come out!" Adrian suddenly ordered in a deep voice.

Six bodyguards appeared in Curly’s room, standing before Adrian. He didn’t say a word and punched each of them.

The six men stood there, motionless. Such was their bearing that even if Adrian were to stab them to death, they wouldn’t resist.

"Night Owl came and cut off a lock of Curly’s hair. What were you all doing?"

"..."

"Cat got your tongue? Speak!"

Bodyguard 010 replied, "Sixth Master, we thought it was Shade Jervois, so we didn’t stop him. When we saw him take out a knife, we prepared to act. But he only cut off a lock of the Young Miss’s hair, so we didn’t pay it much mind..."

Adrian kicked 010 hard in the stomach, sending him sprawling to the ground. "So that didn’t concern you? Do you have to wait until he kills my daughter for you to be concerned?!"

The men replied in unison, "Sixth Master, we won’t let this happen again!"

"There won’t be a next time!"

Bodyguard 010 asked, "Sixth Master, Night Owl and Shade Jervois are identical. Night Owl deliberately disguised himself as Shade Jervois. We were hidden in the shadows and couldn’t tell them apart at that moment. Should we prevent Shade Jervois from approaching the Young Miss from now on?"

"Mm!"

"We understand."

After deep consideration, Adrian wondered if Night Owl had been able to enter and exit so smoothly by impersonating Shade Jervois, precisely because Shade Jervois frequently visited Unnamed Island.

He had initially only wanted to glean some useful information from Shade Jervois. He never expected that not only would he fail to get any useful information, but he would also nearly get his daughter caught in the crossfire.

"Daddy..." Curly woke up, sitting on her small bed and yawning. In her groggy state, she looked adorable. Adrian immediately put on a smile and walked over.

"How come you fell asleep without eating?"

"I was sleepy, so I fell asleep."

Curly held out her arms, wanting Adrian to hold her. He picked her up, and she rested her face on his shoulder, her eyes already drifting back to sleep.

Remembering the important matter, Adrian gently shook his daughter awake and asked, "Curly, if you want to see Brother, how can you find him?"

"He’ll come back on his own."

"Do you know when he will be back?"

"I don’t know. Daddy, what do you want Brother for?"

"There’s something I need his help with."

Curly yawned, her eyes half-closed, and said groggily, "Then wait. He should be here in a few days."

"All right, if he comes, let me know."

"No problem."
