Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 533

At Vermillion Base, Boss was on a call. Just as he hung up, Gavin walked in hurriedly.

“Boss,” Gavin said, wearing a weird look on his face.

“What is it?” Boss put down his phone and looked at Gavin.

Gavin did not say anything but instead opened his palm, revealing the necklace. When Boss saw it, he reached out and picked it up. “That was fast. Is it fixed already?”

Surprisingly, Gavin answered, “No.”

Fiddling with the necklace in his hand, Boss noticed that the chain was still broken. Frowning, he asked, “What do you mean?”

“Don't you find anything wrong with it?” Gavin questioned.

“Hmm? What's wrong with it?” Boss questioned.

“There's a chip in the necklace,” Gavin said.

Holding the necklace, Boss heard what Gavin said. Then, he paused before echoing, “A chip?”

“Yes. The jeweler found it when he was repairing it. There's one here and here. If it wasn't sent in for restoration, no one would know it was there.” As Gavin talked, he twisted open a small, protruding design piece, revealing a tiny chip.

At the sight of it, Boss reached out, picked it up, and scrutinized it.

After quite some time, Boss asked, “What kind of chip is it? What's it used for? Have you looked into it?”

Gavin nodded. “I hired someone to look into it, and the expert said this is a kind of chip that can become a computer once linked.”

“A computer?” Boss said as doubt filled his eyes. “With only this? In this size? Are you sure?”

“Let me clarify. It can't turn into a computer with just this. It needs to link with other components for it to work. I'm not too sure about the details, but people who use this kind of chip are usually hackers.”

At that, Boss furrowed his brows.

A hacker...

Looking at the tiny chip that was even smaller than a pea, Boss frowned in thought again.

This thing... Did someone put this on Natasha on purpose, or is this actually Natasha's?

At a sudden thought, Boss glanced at Gavin and asked, “Gavin, I remember you telling me that your daughter has gotten into university. Am I right?”

Although Gavin felt slightly confused about what Boss was trying to say, the former nodded. “Yes.”

“She's such a smart girl. Well, your children are smart, too, aren't they?”

At the mention of his family, Gavin replied, “They got it from my wife. My wife's a smart woman. However, she couldn't get into university due to family issues. Otherwise, she would certainly be a high achiever too.”

After listening to his story, Boss said, “Gavin, do you think intelligence is inherited?”

“Yeah, absolutely!”

“Then, what about talent?”

Gavin looked at his employer as realization dawned upon him. “Are you trying to say that Ms. Watson might have inherited Theodore's talent for hacking?”

“Bingo. As expected, you're smart too. It seems like your children had not only inherited their intelligence from your wife,” Boss praised Gavin.

At that moment, Gavin thought about the other possibilities before saying, “I've never had something like this happen to me before, so I can't be sure. But from what I know, if someone has a talent for something, it can be passed on to the person's offspring.”

“So, do you think she inherited Theodore's talent for this?” Boss queried.

After giving it some thought, Gavin answered, “I'm not sure.”

“Then, look into it. Also, send this to our hacker team. Let them look at it and find out where this thing came from. I want to know the truth!” Boss enunciated, giving out orders.

Upon hearing that, Gavin nodded, retrieved the chip, and went out.

Meanwhile, Boss' gaze landed on the necklace on the table, unfathomable emotions swirling inside his eyes.

Snippets of his time with Natasha flashed across his mind. He had never understood why she was so confident.

However, if things were like what he had deduced, then all would make sense.

Is it really true, though? Could I be wrong about her?
