Chapter 2545
Nathan’s communication device was a specialized mobile phone equipped with advanced scientific research technology.
Upon connection, all information regarding the other party’s mobile phone would be uploaded to the cloud database of the National Security Bureau.
It was a new technology, completely unfamiliar to Cory.
During their phone conversation, Nathan periodically glanced at Lonnie.
Lonnie remained focused on his computer screen, skillfully manipulating a series of intricate codes.
Cory persisted, “Nathan, we’d been friends for years.
I can release your wife.
Just admit your mistakes and kneel before Nanette’s tomb to apologize.

”
Listening in, Lonnie emphatically shook his head at his boss.

The tracking revealed he remained in Hilldale.
Nathan furrowed his brow, deep in thought.
Just days before, Nathan had led a thorough search of Hilldale, yet found no trace of Cory and Lucinda.
However, Cory hadn’t left the area at all…
