Chapter 1062 - 1062: The Elusive House Owner
Aurelia Shaw was led into the villa by the butler.Aurelia Shaw noticed that there were bodyguards along the way, and the interior decoration of the villa was classical yet not lacking in simplicity. Almost every inconspicuous item was worth over eight figures.
Aurelia was slightly surprised.
At this point, the butler paused his steps.
Aurelia found herself in the courtyard of the villa. The courtyard was empty, and just as she was about to ask the butler why he brought her here, she turned around and found that there was no one there anymore.
The butler had left without her knowing.
"Huh?" A trace of doubt rose in Aurelia's heart.
Bringing her here only to leave her in the courtyard, hung out to dry?
Aurelia glanced around. The tall walls blocked the outside view, and the courtyard was filled with various flowers and trees of rare varieties, many of which she hadn't seen before.
Why did these people bring her here?
Having brought her here, why did they take no action, simply leaving her to hang around?
Could it be that bringing her here was merely to let her look at these plants?
Aurelia believed that no one could be so bored.
But what was their intention?
While Aurelia was lost in thought, a flash of inspiration struck her, and she suddenly remembered something. Her delicate brows furrowed, her almond-shaped eyes subtly moved, and she surveyed the surroundings carefully.
Everything seemed ordinary...
But.
Aurelia's eyes slightly darkened.
Behind these plants, many pinhole cameras were hidden, but without careful inspection, they were completely undetectable.
Moreover, many cameras were concealed in the corners of the walls.
Would an ordinary household have so many cameras?
There are only two possibilities.
One, to guard against outsiders.
Two, specially prepared for her.
Aurelia's pale fingers rubbed the phone in her pocket, and an anxious voice came through her ear, "Aurelia, are you alright?"
Before getting in the car, Aurelia dialed Hadrian Turner's number.
In her previous life, she often heard a saying — tech geeks save the world.
Now she was starting to believe it a bit.
Previously, Hadrian Turner had given her a vacuum earphone. At first, she didn't pay much attention, casually sticking it to her earring. Before entering, she saw a detector at the door, yet it surprisingly didn't get detected.
This Hadrian Turner was really quite something.
"I'm fine." Aurelia slightly lowered her head, her long hair falling down, half covering her small face.
Such a beautiful scene.
No one could imagine that the woman was communicating with someone outside under their surveillance.
"Could you help me check out the owner of this house?" Aurelia whispered.
"Okay, give me a moment." On Hadrian Turner's side, he agreed, and his hands on the keyboard began to fly immediately. Half a minute later, Hadrian Turner's expression darkened, and in a low voice, he said, "I'm sorry, Aurelia, I..."
"Didn't find anything?" Aurelia wasn't surprised.
From the moment she entered this villa.
Aurelia felt it.
The owner of this villa was not simple.
But she didn't know why they were targeting her.
"It's all my fault. If I were more technically skilled, I wouldn't be unable to help you. I'm sorry, Aurelia, I wasn't able to assist you." Hadrian Turner was full of guilt.
"You are already helping me. If it weren't for these things you gave me, I wouldn't be able to contact anyone now." Aurelia wasn't merely comforting Hadrian Turner.
She was actually used to fighting alone.
It was this way in her past life, and it was the same when she was reborn in this life.
"But, but you're in danger now, and I can't help you." Hadrian Turner didn't want Aurelia to be distracted by worrying about him now, but in his heart full of guilt, he couldn't help but say these words.
