Out Of The Shadows Tilda’s Brilliant Second Life novel Chapter 129

Chapter 129 Torn

+8 Pearls

Russell and Blair had always been proud of their seven sons, but especially Dominic.

Dominic had never done anything to worry them. He was smart, decisive, and fast when handling business. He had sharp instincts, almost like a sixth sense. These were the qualities that made him the clear heir to lead the Jenson Group one day.

No one would ever guess Dominic had a connection to the dark web. Even fewer would believe he was the legendary hacker known as DJ–the secret apprentice of the infamous Queen.

Dominic’s only reason for staying in the dark web was because of her.

Improving his hacking skills was just the easiest way to stay close to her.

So when Queen announced she was leaving the dark web, Dominic immediately followed.

But even though he had been her student for three years, Queen always felt that Dominic only contacted her when it was something serious. She found it strange. They were teacher and student, yet he never reached out just to chat.

She often wondered, Doesn’t he ever want to just talk and build a normal bond with me?

In Dominic’s heart, Queen was just as important as his parents. Maybe even more. She was his idol, his mentor, and almost a kind of faith to him.

One day, Queen messaged him. “Why have you been so quiet? Are you mad at me?”

DJ replied. “No. You really are amazing–you can even read my mind. Master, I want to ask you for something. Can you help me look into Jude from DY Group?”

When Tilda saw the message, she frowned.

“Why do you want to investigate Jude? Don’t tell me … you’re in Slosa?”

Dominic froze for a moment. Then he typed back without thinking. “Master, you’re in Slosa too?”

Right then, an image of Tilda flashed in his mind.

From the moment he realized she might have terrifying hacking skills–and that she had connections with Andy and Jude–he had been wary of her.

He had already tried digging into her past with his own skills. He wanted to know what really happened in the 19 years she’d been missing, who she’d met, and what her background was.

But he’d found nothing.

Not even he–the hacker ranked number 11 on the dark web–could uncover anything deeper about Tilda. That meant someone even stronger was protecting her, someone who had erased every trace of her existence.

Dominic had even gone so far as to post an anonymous bounty on the dark web, hiring the hacker ranked number five to dig into her.

Still, they came up empty.

That was the moment Dominic realized how dangerous Tilda really was.

If even the number five hacker couldn’t touch her records, then the power backing Tilda was far beyond what he imagined.

Andy and Jude definitely knew about the dark web. People at their level had to. Yet Tilda had ties with both

of them.

If Queen is in Slosa too… then what is her connection to Tilda?

And if the one hiding Tilda’s past was none other than the number one hacker on the dark web–Queen- then it all made sense.

The thought hit Dominic so hard he shook his head violently.

Impossible.

No way!

Queen was too noble and untouchable. How could she ever be tied to someone as dirty and shameless as Tilda?

Queen sent another message. “Jude is the CEO of DY Group, the youngest leader of the Bells. He’s in Slosa. Of course, I know that. The moment you wanted me to investigate him, I figured you must be in Slosa too.”

She didn’t directly answer DJ’s request. But from his quick reply, she already knew he was there. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have asked if she was also in Slosa.

It also meant DJ might be in competition with DY Group.

Tilda could sense that DJ was no ordinary man. His hacking skills were extraordinary. And the way he spoke -polished, refined–showed he had come from a family with power and wealth.

She just hadn’t expected him to run into Jude, let alone clash with him.

On one hand, DJ was Tilda’s student.

On the other hand, Tilda didn’t know where to place Jude, the man who had helped her and also shared the same Omega–type as her.

That thought left her feeling torn.

DJ messaged again. “You’re right. I am in Slosa. And yes, a big part of my current trouble comes from Jude, Will you help me? If anyone can dig into him, it’s you.”

Queen paused before replying. “I’m sorry. I already tried looking into Jude a long time ago… but I couldn’t find anything either.”
