Marry My Ex’s Uncle After Rebirth by Agatha Barney

Chapter 157



Chapter 157 

Christina searched for the packaging box and manual for the robot dog the first thing she got home. When she took a picture of the serial number and was about to send it to Malcolm, a call came from an unfamiliar number. Since her original phone had been smashed by the kidnappers, and all the contact information stored in it was lost, her newly bought phone only had a few people’s numbers on it. She picked up the call and said hello, 

A gentle female voice sounded on the phone. “Christie, this is Meg. Are you home?” 

Christina recognized Megan’s voice but pretended otherwise. “Meg?” 

“I’m Megan! We were close before. It seems you have forgotten me,” Megan said. 

Christina hummed a response. “Sorry, I can’t remember many people. What can I do for you, Meg?” 

Megan chuckled, “Malcolm asked you to pass the packaging box and manual to me. I’ll take them home.” 

Thinking of her family’s suspicions about Megan, Christina naturally wouldn’t trust her. “Meg, I’m so sorry, I can’t find the packaging box or manual. It seems the housekeeper has thrown them away as trash.” 

“Is that so?” Megan had doubts, but could do nothing about it. She chuckled and replied, “All right then. I’ll treat you to a meal next time.” 

“Okay! Let’s contact each other again.” Christina hung up the phone with a chuckle, Then, she sent a message to Malcolm: [Mr. Jimenez, Megan just called me and said you asked her to pick up the packaging box and manual.] 

Malcolm frowned and replied: [ didn’t ask her to get it.] 

Christina quickly typed: [So she was lying!] 

Malcolm pursed his lips and wrote: [Don’t worry about her. Just take a picture of the serial number and send it to me.) 

Soon, a photo was sent over. Malcolm responded with an okay and fell into deep thought with a solemn look. 

In the Bentley, Matthew was driving, and Melvin was sitting in the passenger seat. Madeline and Malcolm sat in the back seat. 

Madeline glanced at Malcolm. “What’s wrong?” 

Malcolm asked, “Do you guys think Meg has any problems?” 

Matthew and Melvin locked at each other and remained silent. 

Madeline thought for a while and said, “Maybe she doesn’t like to be in contact with others after the surgery.” 

Malcolm didn’t say anything else and just nodded slightly. Indeed, it seems so.” 

At dinner, the Jimenez family sat together. 

Kenneth said, “The reunion party has been delayed for so long. It’s time to hold it. Matthew, I’ll leave this to you 

Matthew nodded. “Don’t worry, Grandpa. I will also invite Granddad and Granny” 

Annabelle smiled and nodded. “That’s a good idea. Stephie saved Madeline. They can thank her for saving their granddaughter. Although we are only adopting a goddaughter and god–granddaughter we have to make it a grand ceremony.” 

Annabelle looked at Selena and said, “Selena, come with me to order two sets of clothes.”

Selena asked, “Where would you like to order them?” 

Annabelle answered, “Starlight Design Studio, of course. I’ll increase Stephie’s sales.” 

Madeline looked toward the absent–minded Megan. “Meg, why don’t you go with them?” 

Megan forced a smile. “Okay.” 

The family was thinking about what to prepare for the reunion party throughout dinner, while Megan kept observing Malcolm from time to time. 

Seeing that everyone was chatting enthusiastically without the intention to dismiss, Malcolm said he had something to do and went upstairs. As soon as he returned to the room, he began working on the computer. 

It would take four hours to restore the content, so Megan began to count the time after Malcolm went upstairs. She had to find the recording of her and Florence in the restored content, or everything would be over. 

She paced back and forth in the room and fellt utterly miserable in these four hours. As the estimated time approached, she made a call and uttered, “it’s time.” The other party replied, “Got it.” 

Megan stood in front of the floor–to–ceiling window, watching Malcolm rush to the garage. Once the car left the mansion, she hurried to the door and opened it slightly. Seeing no one around, she quickly went up to the third floor and snuck into Malcolm’s room. 

Megan’s heart beat wildly as she watched the progress bar on the computer screen reaching 98%. She bit her lip and glanced at the door from time to time, fearing someone might come in at this time. Finally, the progress reached 100%, and all the content was restored to a file named “DOG.” 

She opened the file and searched for the recording. She clicked on the recording for the birthday party, and what was playing was exactly the recording of her conversation with Florence. This recording was enough to make her lose everything. 

Overjoyed, Megan immediately deleted the recording She took a deep breath, set the computer to screensaver mode, and left quickly. What she didn’t know was that a micro camera on the curtain rack had recorded everything. 

In the silver sports car outside the mansion, Malcolm’s eyes darkened as he watched the surveillance footage uploaded to his phone. 

Malcolm had received a call from his student earlier saying the laboratory system had been hacked and asking him to go check it quickly. He had expected something to happen tonight, so he had installed a surveillance camera before leaving 

He was reassured about the laboratory system because he had spent 20 million dollars to hire Hacker Yern to install a firewall, which was absolutely safe. After all, Yern was the world’s number one hacker. He just wanted to see what was going on. As expected, Megan had sneaked into his room shortly after he had left. After the content had been restored, she had deleted a recording. 

‘Why did Megan go to great lengths to delete that recording? What secrets are hidden in it? Malcolm wondered. He narrowed his eyes and vaguely felt that something could no longer be concealed. 

An hour later, Malcolm returned home as usual. When he went upstairs, he met Megan, who headed downstairs to drink water. 

Malcolm, did you go out?” Megan asked

Malcolm smiled faintly. “Yeah. A student called me just now and said there was a problem in the laboratory. I just came back after solving it.” 

Megan nodded. “Then go to bed early.” 

Malcolm replied, “Okay, you too.” 

As Malcolm walked past Megan, the smile on his face faded. He hurried upstairs to his room and locked the door behind him,

He restored the recording that Megan had deleted and clicked on the play button. The voices of Florence and Megan came. Malcolm’s pupils trembled violently, and he frowned. He was shocked and finally angry. He pursed his lips and listened to the recording playing over and over again. 

He couldn’t believe there would be such an absurd thing. He closed his eyes and thought about one thing after another. Everything seemed to form a 

loop. 

Malcolm called Matthew and Melvin and asked them to come to his room. Soon, they arrived. Malcolm couldn’t wait to play the recording for them, but they looked more angry than shocked. 

Seeing their reactions, Malcolm frowned. “Aren’t you shocked? Did you know something before?” 

Matthew cleared his throat. “Melvin and I can explain it.” 

Malcolm’s mouth twitched. “So you already knew? How long have you been hiding it from me? Why?”
