Chapter 2087

Carter sounded a little irritated. "Can you check the time before you call? Just because you don't have a wife, do you think othersdon't as well?"

Keegan said inwardly, 'l do, and even two kids!"

He swallowed the urge to brag and cleared his throat before saying, "Hey, Carter. I'm sorry to disturb you at this hour, but | needa favor."

Carter was puzzled at how polite Keegan was.

Then, he pursed his lips and asked, "What is it?"novelbin

"Can you hack into Lena's office system and help me check-"

Carter ended the call before Keegan could finish speaking. He called again, but it went straight to voicemail.Meanwhile, Carter shoved his phone into the drawer, not wanting to look at it at all.

Upon hearing the footsteps from the bathroom, he immediately unbuttoned his shirt, pulled back the blanket, and slipped inside.Then, he grabbed a book from the table and pretended to read it.

After Lena dried her hair, she lifted the blanket and sat on the bed. Then, she picked up her phone to check her messages.

Carter had no idea who she was texting, but she looked very committed when replying. She pondered and smiled from time totime as her fingers rapidly tapped on the screen, completely ignoring the person lying next to her.

He could not help but ask, "Are you texting someone in your team?"Lena answered, "No, it's Keegan. He's been dealing with something lately and asked me for advice."Carter had a bad feeling and probed subtly, "What is it about?”

She put down her phone. "One of his friend's classmates committed suicide after getting framed. This classmate has a twin sisterwho wants to find the real culprit to avenge her death, but she doesn’t have any idea how to.

"So, she came up with a plan to impersonate her late sister and get close to the people her sister had contact with before shedied. She wants to find the truth this way, and Keegan asked me if it would work."

Carter's back stiffened as he asked, "Would it?"

Lena shook her head. "Of course not. Even if they are twins and their DNA sequences are identical, their fingerprints and irisesare completely different. It'll be exposed sooner or later, but | admire her courage for trying. II

Carter remained silent for a while. Then, he opened the drawer, took out his phone, and got out of bed.

Lena paused. "Where are you going?"

He replied gently, "I'm feeling a bit hungry, so I'm going downstairs to get something to eat. Do you want some?""It's fine. Don't eat too much. It's bad for your stomach."

"Got it."

As soon as he got downstairs, he dialed Keegan's number with a stern face. Once the line connected, he asked, "Whatnonsense did you tell my wife?"

Keegan said, "One of my friend's classmates...""Just shut up!" Carter cut him off. "Who do you want to investigate?"

Keegan quickly answered, "A case from six years ago. About the person who died from falling at The Hox Club during thesummer."
