My Mommy’s Brave Heart (Adina and Duke)
Chapter 874

Chapter 874 There was another Winters family's mansion near the resort project site.

It was a large mansion with a sea view located on the hillside. It was a well-kept mansion, so the yard was full of plants and flowers.

When the car stopped, Adina turned to look at Duke's chest. She said in a low voice, "Should we call a doctor?"

"It's just a minor injury, so don't worry." Duke stroked her hair. "Rest today. Some programmers will come tomorrow. We will see if they can destroy the chip in your body."

Adina was about to say something, but she remained quiet. She was in this line of work, so she knew very well that there was no way to destroy the chip without getting the original program data. However, she did not want Duke to feel disappointed. She might as well try it. What else could she do?

At seven the next morning, there was some commotion. Adina got dressed and went downstairs. She saw Duke talking to three or four programmers. She sat beside Duke and answered the programmers' questions. Her body was connected to a quantum induction line, and a low current flowed through her body the whole morning.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Winters. We couldn't replace the original chip. The biochip seems to be made up of animal and plant cell membranes. Those kinds of chips get assimilated into the blood. The chip in Mrs. Winters' body has integrated with her blood. We can't destroy it."

Duke's face darkened. He took a deep breath. "Is there anyone who could destroy or deactivate the biochip?" "The manufacturer that manufactures this chip might be able to help," the programmer said cautiously. "If you replace the manufacturer of the chip, they can easily close the program permanently on the server."

Duke gritted his teeth. His jawline was as sharp as a knife.

He had shot down Isabelle and killed her. If he had known this would happen, he would never have her. She definitely would know about biochips since Elder Maurice used it on his supporters. However, it was useless to cry over spilled milk.

"You have worked hard." Duke looked at the programmers, "I'll ask someone to make arrangements to send you back."

After the programmers left the mansion, everything was quiet. Adina leaned on Duke's chest. "Duke, we can't rush it. These things take time."

She was a hacker and was also trying to replace a way to break into the manufacturer's server. Once she found a way to control the server data, everything would be solved,

Duke patted her back gently. "Isabelle's maid will arrive in Sea City today. I'll go and interrogate her in person. I should be able to replace out who the manufacturer is."

Just then, the phone rang. "Boss, we've arrived at Sea City. Where should we go next?"

Duke gave them the address of the mansion.

Adina picked up a book. "Take your time with the interrogation. I'm a little sleepy, so I'll read a book and maybe take a nap."

Duke nodded. He led her upstairs, tucked her in and closed the door to her room. While he headed back downstairs, he frowned. For the first time, he felt incompetent. He could not even save the woman he loved the most.

Someone knocked on the mansion door. Two bodyguards in black walked in with a maid.

The maid was frightened. She was trembling. She begged at Duke's leg. "Mr. North, please forgive me. Please have mercy. Ms. Adamos is dead, and I'm just a powerless person. I haven't done anything! Please let me go."

Duke shook her away in disgust and stepped on the back of her hand.
