Maria narrowed her eyes at what Grover said and asked, "Are you saying that he has this same red phone?"

"Yes!"

Grover immediately answered. He was sure of it.

He remembered having seen the Heaven application on Maria's phone. That was the application that top hackers used for communication. Maybe it was installed on these red phones only.

If that was the case, did it mean that Anthony was also a hacker?

Grover had to fight not to expose his surprise and admiration. If both

Maria and Anthony were top hackers, then they were a really powerful couple.

Since Maria didn't say anything after that, he too stayed quiet.

She had been missing Maria for days since the latter wasn't home lately.

“Honey?" Maria asked in surprise. She clearly wasn't used to being called that way.

Feeling a little embarrassed, Julie said, "I won't call you that way again if you don't Like it."

“No mom, it's okay. Whatever makes you happy." Maria smiled.

Julie smiled too, feeling the nervousness Leave her body.

“Anthony is in the study on the second floor,“ Julie said with a smile, knowing that Maria would be looking for him.

“Okay. Thanks, mom."

Maria smiled and went straight to the study on second floor.

There, she opened the door and went in without knocking.

She saw Anthony's familiar figure sitting behind the desk and looking very serious.

There were parts of a disassembled red phone on the table.

When Anthony looked up and saw her, he quickly Looked down at the phone on the table.

Then he grabbed a square scarf nearby and covered the parts.

“Hey, you're back," he said as naturally as possible.
