280: Chapter 280 – Pete’s request

Chapter 280 – Pete’s request

Robin was determined to obtain the information he needed, even if he wasn't sure what Peter would ask. 0

His commitment to capturing Martin within the next fourteen days fueled his determination and although he still had plenty of time, he preferred to stay ahead rather than procrastinate.

Curiosity piqued, Robin asked Pete, "What's the condition?" 

Pete took a seat and replied, 

"Before you proceed with anything involving her, I need to speak with her first." 

Pete knew that Martin was currently at home, making it impossible for him to personally deliver the information to Mara.

Robin felt uneasy about the situation, considering he was dealing with a skilled hacker. What if he helped Mara escape after their conversation? He wondered about the potential consequences.

This was the same man who had made it incredibly difficult for Mara to be tracked all these months, so how could Robin possibly trust him?

"How can I possibly believe that you won't help her escape?" Robin asked, his tone serious. 

Pete chuckled in response and said, 

"If I had any intention of doing that, I wouldn't have allowed you to find me. The only reason I haven't gone there myself is because I can't stand the sight of her boyfriend's face."

"She has a boyfriend?" Robin asked, finding it hard to believe. 

However, Pete wasn't willing to divulge any information without his conditions being met. 

"What are your terms, Mr. Jewel?" Pete asked, his expression serious.

Robin was extremely unhappy about the situation. He had always despised these types of manipulations, especially when Sabrina's life was at stake.

He had initially assumed that the man would demand money, but upon realizing the man's true intentions, Robin knew that money was not what he sought. In a hushed tone, he asked Daniel, 

"What are your thoughts on this?"

"Considering that he possesses the information we need and doesn't appear to be a threat, I say we give it a try. Once Mara is captured, I'm confident that we'll have the general's men surrounding us, preventing his escape with her. I'll also be on high alert," Daniel replied.

After carefully considering Daniel's suggestion, Robin turned to Peter and warned, 

"If you dare to ruin this for me, I will not only ruin you, but everything you hold dear as well. Remember, we now know what you look like and we have your name."

Peter chuckled and spoke in a relaxed manner, 

"I know who you are, Mr. Jewel, and I'm not foolish enough to consider you as my enemy. Well, I may have thought so in the past due to love, but love betrayed me."

Robin, uninterested in the origins or details of Peter's love story, replied, "Alright, go on."

"She resides in a secure room within the mansion. The entrance is through the garage, leading to her closet. The closet door is made of special materials, rendering it undetectable, but I will provide you with the sensor. There is another door within the mansion, but locating it would prove challenging. This is the simpler option."

"But why are you helping us so readily?" Daniel questioned, sensing that Peter might have ulterior motives or be using them. However, he couldn't have been more mistaken.

Peter's expression shifted, and anger consumed him as he spoke in a cold tone, 

"Because that woman ruined me."

Want to spill the beans?" Robin suddenly became intrigued and inquired. Whatever Mara had done to cause him such distress must be quite shocking.

Now that they were on the same team, Peter didn't hold back his resentment towards Mara and stated, 

"She's been in a romantic relationship with the man she claimed was her brother, and she confessed to me that he's not even her brother."

Both Daniel and Robin were stunned, and Robin was the first to ask, 

"Wait, are you saying that Martin isn't her brother?"

Peter didn't immediately respond but instead smiled bitterly. He stood up, walked over to the bedroom he had emerged from, and placed a large white envelope on the desk.

"I saved this for you. Inside, you'll find a pen drive. She drugged and slept with Martin to conceive a child with him. He's not her brother, and all the evidence of how she has deceived him all these years is in there, including instructions on how to locate the hidden closet door in the garage."

Despite the shocking revelation, Robin desired the demise of both the brother and sister, or whatever their relationship may be. He cared little about the circumstances that brought them together, as mentioned by Peter.

"I'm not interested in that," he stated seriously. 

All he needed was the sensor, but Peter disagreed and suggested, "But you can use it against Martin, just in case."

Robin pondered how this revelation could benefit him and requested, "Then give me a summary." 

He had no intention of spending hours watching videos or reading documents about people he simply wanted dead.

Peter proceeded to explain, "Inside, you will find Mara's diary. I stole it the last time I was there. Half of it is filled with her hatred for Sabrina. Then, her disdain for Matilda and Devin for loving Sabrina so deeply. Furthermore, her frustration with her boyfriend being in love with Sabrina."

"It also reveals the truth behind her cunning scheme in manipulating and deceiving Martin's parents into signing over everything to her, their adopted child. Despite her parents being the masterminds behind the plan, she resorted to killing them when they attempted to confess their guilt to Martin."

"Even Martin's parents fell victim to her, as she murdered them to prevent any changes to the property names. I don't have time to elaborate on the rest, but I hope this sparks your curiosity and motivates you to obtain what you desire. And please, don't forget the promise you made to me."

Robin immersed himself in the document and videos, left by Pete along with instructions on how to contact him and secure the premises. 

After Daniel confirmed that the helicopter would be ready in a few hours, their flight was further delayed due to inclement weather, necessitating multiple stops along the way.

Late in the morning, Robin and Daniel finally arrived in New York. Exhausted from the journey, 

Robin decided to take a shower, as he hadn't had the chance to do so since he left. Once he finished, he dialed Devin's number, and the news he received left him feeling weak in the knees.
