"Ding." Nathaniel just opened the document when the computer gave out a warning sound. Following this, Zion's anxious voice could be heard.
"Mr. Ye, this document has initiated selfdestruction. You only have 25 seconds before your file will be destroyed automatically. It may even destroy your computer."
Nathaniel's expression changed when he heard Zion's words.
Tristan's heart skipped a beat.
How important was the document that it had a self-destructing system?
And this document was related to him, so...
Tristan's mood was complicated.
Nathaniel did not care about anything else. He quickly used the remaining 20 seconds to copy and transfer the document.
When it was almost completed, the computer in front of Nathaniel exploded with a bang.
Tristan protected Nathaniel at that crucial moment. Then, they fell to the ground together so that they wouldn't get injured.
"Zion, how are you?"
Nathaniel quickly called Zion to ask.
Zion quickly said, "I'm fine."
Nathaniel finally felt relieved.
The defence system was automatically turned on because of the explosion and the alarm was triggered everywhere.
Tristan said with a wry smile, "It's over. Uncle will kill us."
"He'll kill you, but I'll be fine."
Nathaniel stood up after saying that.
Tristan asked doubtfully, "What do you mean?"
Nathaniel said as he walked out, "It means that you wanted to invade the top-secret document of the country, which made your computer blow up. I just happened to be here."
"What do you mean?"
By the time Tristan understood, he saw Nathaniel opening the door and running out before the door was slammed shut.
"Damn it!"
Tristan seldom felt so depressed and he would never let Nathaniel go.
"I was so touched just now, but it turned out that he's just a liar!" Tristan was wondering if it was still too late to go out when he heard Nathaniel's voice coming from outside.
"Dad, what's going on? Did something explode?"
Tristan was appalled when he heard that.
How could Nathaniel act as if he was unaware of everything?
Tristan didn't expect that Nathaniel would be so good at scheming against others.
Dennis and Queena rushed over. When they saw Nathaniel outside and the explosion was in Tristan's room, they couldn't help but frown. The look in Dennis' eyes was very complicated.
"Ask everyone to turn off their safety systems. They don't have to stay here any longer. Nathan, come in."
Dennis quickly gave orders and walked into the room with Queena and Nathaniel.
Tristan smiled awkwardly and glared at Nathaniel.
Dennis whispered, "Nathan, close the door."
"Alright."
Nathaniel quickly locked the door.
After they sat down, Dennis looked at Tristan and the complicated look in his eyes made Tristan a little embarrassed.
"Uncle, I..."
"When did you find out?"
Dennis asked directly.
Tristan was slightly stunned. When he knew that he couldn't hide it anymore, he whispered, "When I gave the blood transfusion to Desmond."
Dennis sighed and said, "You are quite alert. I didn't know that you had done so many things under my nose. It seems that it's understandable why the higher-ups think highly of you."
His words made Tristan's body stiffen suddenly.
He was particularly sensitive to these words.
Dennis looked at him and said in a low voice, "Don't be nervous. It's not what you think. The country doesn't intend to train you to be an assassin. You're the son of the Hans family. Besides this matter, the government would use everything they have to protect you. However, they were also studying the composition of your blood and you would become a useful agent for the country. Of course, you would need to be willing to do this because they wouldn't force you. I wasn't going to let you know. But now that both of you have destroyed all the confidential documents, there's nothing left to hide. After all, from the moment the explosion occurred, all traces of the information about your blood was wiped out."
Dennis glanced at Nathaniel after saying this, which made the latter feel a little embarrassed.
Dennis clearly mentioned both of them, so it meant that he knew Nathaniel's involvement in the matter as well.
Nathaniel even thought he was smart to escape the situation.
