"Scarlett's life could be in danger if her identity as Roland Gilwynn's illegitimate child is exposed to the royal family and the media..." Rex disclosed.

Xander flinched after understanding the gravity of the situation. The potential consequences of revealing Scarlett's identity weighed heavily on his mind.

He glanced at Scarlett and offered her a reassuring smile, conveying that he would always stand by her side, even if Roland Gilwynn's family refused to accept her as part of their own.

After seeing his wife smile, he shifted his gaze to Rex. "You're right, Rex. Thanks for reminding me..." Then, he turned his attention to Theodor.

"Theo, aside from the people present here, does anyone else know about the DNA test you conducted?" Xander asked.

Theodor shook his head. "No! Nobody knew the true identity of the samples when I sent them to the hospital. So, only the four of us are aware of it..."

"Keep it that way, Theo," Scarlett spoke up, her gaze fixed on Theodor. "But I need your help to arrange a meeting with Roland Gilwynn." Her voice trembled as she uttered the name. Saying it aloud felt surreal, and she was still struggling to fully grasp the fact that the man was her father. 

Now she urgently needs to talk to Roland Gilwynn to uncover how her mother met him and became pregnant. Did they have a one-night stand or do it because they loved each other? 

'Loving each other? Sounds impossible. How can Roland love my mother when he already has a wife and children?' Scarlett inwardly sighed, feeling shamed.

"Sister, I'll take care of arranging the meeting," Theodor responded, his mind already working on a plan to entice his uncle into meeting Scarlett. Knowing that his uncle, Roland, rarely left his palace. He considered revealing Scarlett's true identity to his uncle as a means to secure his cooperation.

"But, Theo... Please don't reveal my identity just yet. I will tell him directly," Scarlett reminded Theodor, worried that this foolish man would reveal something that shouldn't be talked about again.

Theodor fell into silence, trying to think of another way to entice his uncle. Suddenly, an idea struck him—Simon's upcoming birthday party.

"Sis, how about I arrange a meeting at Simon's party?" Theodor suggested eagerly.

Scarlett pondered for a moment. "It could work. The most important thing is for me to have a private conversation with him without him knowing my true identity. Can you make that happen?"

"Absolutely! I'll make sure of it," Theodor replied confidently, already formulating a plan to bring them together. 

After chatting for a while, Theodor decided to take his leave. He needed to arrange his plans. However, Theodor reminded Xander and Scarlett to come over to his house before he left.

"My mother has prepared dinner for you two. I hope you will come as planned..." Theodor said, concerned that Scarlett might refuse to meet his family before meeting his uncle. 

"Don't worry, we'll be there..." Xander assured him, rising from his seat. "Allow me to escort you to your car," he added, walking to walk Theodor outside. 

As Xander and Theodor left the room, Scarlett turned her attention to Rex. A frown appeared on her face, and for a while, she seemed to be thinking about something deeply.

"Is something bothering you?" Rex asked when he saw her expression look tense.I think you should take a look at

Scarlett nodded. "Someone sent me a strange message," she said anxiously.

During their earlier conversation, Scarlett attempted to trace the sender but discovered that the cell phone was no longer active.

"What did the text say?" Rex inquired as Scarlett handed him her cell phone. After reading the text, he looked at Scarlett again as he returned her phone.

"I traced the number, but it was from a disposable cell phone. The last known location was Zurich." Scarlett said.

Rex proceeded to ask, "What have you been up to in the past few days?" Observing Scarlett's puzzled expression, he added, "I mean, have you offended anyone recently?"

Scarlett immediately nodded. "I hacked into Withers' server and planted my latest virus there. I doubt they'll recover in a week or even longer," she admitted with a mischievous sparkle in her eyes.

"Hahaha, it seems your wicked uncle is getting agitated," Rex chuckled, a sense of satisfaction evident in his voice. He believed that the text message was sent by Jude Withers.

"What? So you're saying the person who texted me is Jude Withers?" Scarlett was taken aback to hear that. "How did he know it was me who ruin their server?" 

"Well, I can't say for sure that he sent it personally, but I guess it was done on his orders. Wait here. I'll have Seven provide updates from our spy," Rex retrieved his cell phone and walked toward the terrace to make the call.

Scarlett laughed happily, knowing she had managed to piss off Jude Withers. One of her goals was to send an unspoken message to her wicked uncle, warning him not to mess with her. And she had done it.

"Babe, you look so happy. Is there something that's making you smile?" Xander's voice startled Scarlett, but her face immediately lit up upon seeing him enter the room.

Excitedly, she shared the details of the text messages she had received and the possibility that Jude Withers might be the sender.

"I'm pretty certain it's him," Xander smiled as he settled beside her. "I heard from James that Withers' business is in shambles, especially their underground operations."

"Oh, you already heard the news?" Scarlett expressed her surprise.

"Yeah, just a few hours ago. I initially thought someone was attacking them, but it turns out it was you," Xander playfully tousled her hair. "You did an amazing job, baby!"

"Well, to be honest, their server was easy to breach. I planted my virus and ensured they'll be busy for a week or more. But sensing their hacker capability, it seems they won't be able to recover anytime soon," Scarlett proudly explained.

"I also made copies of all the data on their server. I'll use it against them later," she added.

Rex, who had returned from the terrace, joined Scarlett and Xander once again. "Sister, you copied all their documents?"

"Absolutely. Well, I'll send Brother Ten a few files for...," Scarlett's voice trailed off as she caught herself almost exposing their guild. "...Brother, I'll send you the files. I need you to check something," she continued, glancing at Xander, hoping he wouldn't ask about Ten.
