Obsessed CEO Throws Himself at Me Chapter 142
âAnd so it seems like we might actually die in this room.â Vinson smiled wryly.
Yet, he had no fear of death.
The word âfearâ did not even exist in his vocabulary.
Come to think of it, itâs not too bad to die here with Arielle by my side.
âNo way!â Arielle was very firm in her belief. âI canât die yet, I still have lots to do.â
His heart sank.
I was just thinking itâs nice to stay together at the face of death. Lo and behold, sheâs not even thinking
about this⦠at all. I want to curse so badly, but I canât.
He coughed lightly. âWhat shall we do now? Iâve tried opening the door, but all efforts are in vain. If we
keep waiting for people to come and rescue us, we wouldâve turned into ashes then.â
Staring at the programming code which got hacked, Arielle fell silent for a moment. âMove aside, let me
try.â
âYou?â Vinson remembered that Arielle knew some programming. However, he was doubtful of her
skills. With only limited skills, can she do what I couldnât achieve?
While he was still contemplating, his body had subconsciously shifted to give space for Arielle to take her
seat in front of the computer.
Calmly, she assumed her role and started searching for files on the computer without first addressing the
programming issue.
Vinson saw how she worked on the keyboard. She did not use the mouse, but merely carried out all
operations on the keyboard swiftly. Her speed was even faster than his typing.
It suddenly dawned on him that they might have a chance to escape death. Gradually, his trust for Arielle
increased multiple folds.
Seeing how she operates on the computer, Iâm afraid sheâs just being modest with her earlier statement.
When she said she knows a little bit about acupuncture, she ended up demonstrating exceptional skills
and healed the guy we caught.
A few minutes later, Arielle stopped.
âWhat did you find?â Vinson asked.
She pointed at the D drive on the screen. Narrowing her eyes, she explained, âThe problem doesnât lie in
the program which canât be removed, but here. This section has been tampered with. Originally, this
computer controls the program. Now that itâs been modified, the control system automatically relocates to
a different place.â
âWhereâs that?â he pressed on in curiosity.
She shook her head. âI donât know. I need to break the firewall in order to hack into their ultimate terminal
and locate the place. Also, when I get there, I need to delete the control system.â
Vinson turned solemn.
âEntering their terminal⦠This requires an expert level hacker. Can⦠can you do it?â
Arielle took a deep breath. âI canât promise you anything, but this is the only way. Weâve got to try it.
Otherwise, everyone will die. Considering the material of the glass door, Iâm not too hopeful that it could
be broken from the outside either.â
A rare and frightful uncertainty settled upon Arielleâs face.
Gazing at her deeply, Vinson was about to say something when another deafening explosion came from
upstairs. Bomb!
That was the second explosion and it occurred right above their heads!
A humungous hole cracked open from the ceiling, accompanied by raging flames.
