Arthur smirked, glanced at Claire's room upstairs, and quickly typed a reply.
Wraith replied: [You know you can't ask for anything from me, and you don't have the ability to ask.]
As soon as the conversation involved Claire, Wraith's attitude grew colder.
Arthur smiled and shook his head as he replied: [I don't want to ask out either. I'm just curious and venting.]
His principle was to use people without suspicion.
This applied even to individuals he had never met or interacted with.
If he believed in someone's potential, he considered them usable.
Wraith, in particular, was a military technology genius skilled in computer systems.
There was nothing related to the internet that he couldn't breach.
Chapter 373 A Madman Seeking Death! Given his expertise, it was wise not to trust him completely.
Yet, Arthur firmly believed there were no eternal enemies, only eternal interests.
He and Wraith shared a common goal-to take down Frederick.
As long as their objectives aligned, collaboration was possible.
Interestingly, Wraith had entered his sight three years ago.
After Arthur's failed attempt to control the Kingstown Security Department, Wraith had sent him an anonymous email. [Want to deal with Frederick? Together!]
At the time, Arthur dismissed it as absurd, thinking Wraith was unaware of the risks involved, and deleted the message.
However, that night, Wraith sent another email: [I know you may not trust my ability. I'll prove it with a small test. Tomorrow at three o'clock, the entire Kingstown Security Department network will be paralyzed.] Arthur thought Wraith was either insane or courting disaster.
The Kingstown Security Department was the primary defense of Kingstown, gathering the best soldiers, officers, and talents from all walks of life.
No one had ever succeeded in paralyzing its network.
Arthur didn't take it seriously at all. He was sure that Wraith

couldn't do it.

Yet, just an hour later, Wraith sent a video.
The entire network of the Kingstown Security Department was indeed paralyzed, and everyone was in chaos. Wraith added: [It was just a small test, and the paralysis lasted for three hours, enough to cause significant disruption.] Arthur stared, stunned, watching the video repeatedly until he finally accepted its authenticity.
That incident led to a partnership with Wraith, who only demanded one thing-Claire.
Thus, Arthur saved Claire not just for his agenda against Frederick but also to secure his collaboration with Wraith.
He had invested heavily in Claire's release from prison smoothly.
Reflecting on this, Arthur suddenly realized he had never suspected Claire.
After sending the message, he noticed Wraith didn't reply.
Turning off his phone, he headed upstairs to Claire's room.
He asked, "Claire? Are you awake?"
He checked the time on his phone. It was half past nine.
Chapter 373 A Madman Seeking Death! Normally, Claire should have woken up by this time.
Yet, after knocking, there was no response for a long time.
Recalling his earlier conversation with Wraith, doubt crept in.
He pressed his ear against the door, straining to hear any movement inside.
He caught faint rustling sounds as if someone was hurriedly organizing something.
A chill ran through Arthur, and he gulped nervously.
He thought, "Could Wraith really be Claire?"
In all his years, Arthur had never felt such unease.
