Chapter 347
The president had shed his daytauthority and was lounging in his chair, leaning against a cushion, clearly
needing sdowntime.
“What's going on?” he you two suddenly show up
Wondered out loud. “How did today?” ‘Did they really have such sharp instincts?‘ he thought.

“Don’t forget Mr. Walker's information security department. Protecting the president is par for the course, isn’t
it?” Kenneth replied casually, as they sat across from the president.
“That's not the point,” the president pressed. “The real question is, what's your connection with Cassandra?”
He could sense they were protecting Cassandra and noticed too that Queen Leanna didn’t pursue the matter
further. She hadn't uttered a single impolite word. Instead, she seemed hurt.
Moreover, the things Cassandra had said were cryptic to him. They felt like a threat to Darren, and he couldn't
quite grasp their meaning.
Thinking of Cassandra made Kenneth’s lips curl into a slight smirk. “Cassandra is my girlfriend and future wife.”
The president looked at him in disbelief with his eyes wide open. “What did you say?!”
“Is there a problem?” Kenneth asked
The president didn’t know what to say, so he turned to Daniel, “And why are you involved?”
“Cassie’s one of National Security Bureau's people, from the information security department,” Daniel explained.
“Technically, she shouldn't be doing this job. If it ever comes out, people could question her loyalty to the
country.”
The president's eyes bulged even wider.
“Did | catch your meaning right?” the president asked, uncertainty lacing his words, “Cassandra... she’s/from
National Security Bureau?”
“Yep, she’s in charge of the information security department. If you haven't heard of her name, Mr. President,
then her hacker alias should ring a bell...” Daniel drew out his words, teasing a reveal. “She’s the legendary
Emery.”

The president stood up in surprise, wondering, ‘Who is this prodigy? The principal of Juset University Henry
Wilson said she was Number One in the SAT, and she’s also known by sas Elaine. The most important thing
is that she has achieved. quite a lot. Yet she is only 18 years old!"
“So why didn’t you...” Before the president could finish his question, Daniel seemed to grasp his point, saying,
“People from the information security department often wear different hats in society. But to prevent their true
identities from being blown. later, National Security Bureau's policy is clear: No excessive contact with any
nation’s leaders or top brass... which is why | intervened.”
The president wasn’t buying it. “Witharound today, who would dare question her loyalty?”
Something else clicked in his mind. “Do you know about Cassandra's background?”
“Yeah.
“And another thing, why does Cassandra look so much like Queen Leanna?”
He suspected they were related, but he also knew that posing the question might be pointless.
“It's a complicated matter, Mr. President, and not one for concern
1. w. When the tcomes, I'll bring Cassandra to you and explain everything,” Kenneth said, avoiding a direct
answer.
The president wasn’t bothered. Kenneth was someone he trusted. If Kenneth suggested it was complicated, then
it could wait.
After they left, riding in Kenneth’s car, Daniel asked with genuine curiosity, “What exactly is Cassie's connection
to that queen?”
“You want to know?” Kenneth asked.
Daniel nodded, but Kenneth said, “You can ask her about it yourself. | won't tell
you.”
Daniel was speechless. “Then why did you even ask?‘ he complained in his mind.
When Cassandra cback to Pinehart Mansion, she didn’t look well.
Suddenly she received a phone call from Omar, his voice a furious torrent on the other end. “Did Darren and his
crappy family clooking for you?!”

Cassandra instinctively pulled the phone away from her ear, replying, “Yeah, they cto my school.”
“Those scumbags. They never keep their word. | should've dealt with them days. ago, given their legs a taste of
my ‘medicine’ so they’d stop running around!”
Cassandra was silent for a moment and then said, “I can handle it. If | can’t deal with this, there's no point in
trying to do anything else.”

“Fine. If they keep messing around, I'll give you more medications to lay on them,” Omar said.
“But, you know, | think the stuff in your shabby shack is really precious...” Cassandra hesitated.
“Don’t get any ideas about my stuff! And for your information, it's not a ‘shabby shack’! Have you ever seen a
seaside villa referred to as a shabby shack? With its back against the mountains, facing the sea, nestled among
nature-it’s paradise on Earth! How did it beca ‘shabby shack’ in your mouth?” Omar shouted.
Hearing Omar’s angry words, Cassandra hung up the phone and said nothing
more.
She waited at hfor Kenneth'’s return, drifting close to sleep on the couch before Kenneth finally arrived. He
approached and held her in his arms, asking, “Why didn’t you go sleep in the bedroom?”
“I was a bit worried. You hadn't cback yet.”
“I had to drop Mr. Walker back at the military residential compound. It’s a bit of a distance, so it tooklonger
to get back.”
“Okay, I'm going to sleep.”
Kenneth, in a silent understanding, didn’t ask about her day. If Cassandra didn’t want to talk about it, then it
didn’t need to be discussed.
The next day, the five-star luxury hotel where Queen Leanna and her family were staying was heavily guarded
by soldiers ensuring their safety.
“Leanna is my daughter-in-law. Would you please let them know the Yates family is here to see them?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMaximilian and his family were being stopped at the hotel
entrance.
Inside were foreign dignitaries. There was no room for carelessness.

“I'm sorry, but we really can’t let you in,” the patrolling soldiers insisted, regardless of how the Yates family
pleaded.
Kayden, annoyed, looked toward his grandfather, saying, “Grandpa, why even chere? To see how well they
are doing? Or to see just how good their life is after they ditched Cassandra?”
Every tKayden thought of that happy family of three, he felt it was so unfair to
Cassandra.
It was outrageous how those people lived it up abroad. When they were searching. for Faye, they were able to
target Hugo immediately and take him away, yet they never made their daughter a priority. Throughout the
years, Maximilian and his family’s search for Cassandra was like finding a needle in a haystack. They hadn't even
seen Cassandra's face when she was a child, and even the photos they had were blurry. Leanna gave Maximilian
the blurry photo only for him to pinpoint Cassandra’s location perfectly.
It was difficult, but at least they had a photo and someone they could seek help. from.
“How can you speak like that? They're your uncle and aunt, not strangers. They've been missing for nearly 20
years. Shouldn't they explain themselves to me?” Maximilian retorted.
“And what about an explanation to Cassandra?” Kayden didn’t want to stay any longer. Just as he was leaving,
someone called out to him. “Kayden, you didn’t greetlast twe met. Are you going to ignorethis time
too?”
It was Darren and his family who had just cout. Leanna asked the patrolling soldiers to step back. They'd
handle things themselves here.
“Sorry, if it’s all the sto you, Id rather ignore you,” Kayden said, thinking their worries about Darren and
Leanna in the past 20 years were meaningless.
