Chapter 1173

“I’m thinking the same thing.” Cornelia chimed in.

They were both realists, who wouldn’t want to make some extra cash if the opportunity presented itself? This was traffic that came willingly. It wouldn’t. hurt anyone. It would be a waste not to take advantage of it.

Zack announced. The site’s back up, your comic’s click–through and subscription rates are skyrocketing again. Looks like we’re gonna have to work overtime tonight.”

Cornelia suggested, “We can handle the overtime, you should get some rest, Abby”

Abigail protested. This studio belongs to all three of us, how can I sit out at such a crucial moment?”

Cornelia was about to reply when Zack suddenly yelled, “Crap! Our website has crashed again.”

Turned out they had severely underestimated Hannah’s influence and her fanbase’s power. After the website was back up, the fans stormed in again, and within half an hour, the site crashed once more.

This continued on and off till 2 or 3 in the morning. Only when it seemed like everyone else had gone to bed and the visitor count decreased, did the website finally recover.

Zack said, “Looks like we’ll have to invest more in our website, we can’t afford another day like today.”

Cornelia added, “The quality of the website affects the user’s reading experience. Our focus is on content, which is indeed important. But no matter how good the content is, if the tech can’t keep up and it takes the readers several minutes to load the comic, they won’t want to come back.”

Abigail agreed, “Exactly.”

Zack said, “Smelly Nelly, you take care of finding a programmer. You’ve been at the Hartley Group for a long time, you must have some connections to find a reliable one.”

Cornelia replied, “Got it. I remember a few good ones, I’ll message them first thing in the morning.”

Zack said, “It’s almost 3:30 a.m., you two should get some sleep. I’ll stay up a bit longer.”

Cornelia said, “I can hold out a bit longer. Abby, you should go to sleep.

Abigail was pregnant, so Cornelia had been insisting that she should rest and that she and Zack could handle things. But Abby was stubborn and insisted on staying with them, saying she needed to hustle for baby formula money.

Cornelia said, “I’ve told you, I can handle the baby formula cost. You think I’d let our baby go hungry?“,

Abigail retorted, “I’m all for you spoiling me if you become rich. But I can still make my own money right now, I can’t just sit around spending yours. If I really run out of money or can’t earn any more, then you can take care of me.”

Cornelia said, “If you don’t need me to take care of you, can I at least take care of our baby?”

Abigail said, “Taking care of our baby is nothing. If you really want to take care of someone, have a baby with President Hartley. Don’t waste your excellent genes.”

Cornelia replied, “Hmm, I’ll talk to him about it when he gets back from his business trip.”

They were all video chatting, and Zack noticed Cornelia and Abigail typing away, as if they were messaging each other privately. Zack realized something after a while, “Cornelia, Abby, are you two hiding something from me?”

Abigail replied, “Yes, we’re hiding something from you. We can’t tell you right now, we’ll let you know after a while.”

Zack asked, “Why can’t you tell me now?”

Abigail replied, “Like I said, I can’t tell you now.”

Zack turned to Cornelia, “Can you tell me?”

Cornelia replied, “I can’t either.”
