Chapter 485

“We got her.” When Morris’s voice rang in the earpiece, Nora had also just received a text message on her phone: it was from the little psycho again.

[Still not budging even now? You really seem to want the downfall of the Smith Corporation!]

[Hehe, Smith Corporation’s stock has already fallen by 20%. Still not going to beg for mercy?].

[Come on, my little servant, make up your mind! Otherwise, even if my new toy leaves you alone, Smith Corporation will still suffer huge losses! How can you trust a company that can’t even guarantee the security of its network?].

Nora raised her eyebrows as she read the text messages.

She ignored it and looked at the time: all servers had successfully rebooted. Her long, slender fingers landed on the keyboard and she began typing at high speed.

Five minutes later, all the company’s computers were back to normal.

The Smith Corporation – including all its subsidiaries that depended on the servers – was back to normal!

Outside.

As Samuel looked at all the trending topics on social media that Yvonne was showing them on the computer, he became so enraged that his blood pressure shot sky high.

To be honest, he also owned some Smith Corporation stock and received dividends every year. Although Ian and he didn’t get along well plus he didn’t like Joel, if the Smith Corporation really went bankrupt, he would be involved too!

This was also the reason why, although Samuel had continued to show up in minor incidents over the years, other than ruining Ian and Joel’s moods, he had never done anything during major incidents!

Of course, he had no authority to make any decisions either.

However, he had never colluded with outsiders to cheat his own family’s company.

But now!

Samuel was so angry he was practically stamping his foot. He pointed at things on the computer screen and shouted angrily at the people around him, “Didn’t she say she knew Q, and that she would ask the real Q for help? Is this what the so-called Q she invited can do?.

He’s bad luck – he’s never done anything good since his return to the Smiths!”.

Why did she offend Q for no reason? She is too stubborn!

Oh, my actions! They’ve already fallen into tens of millions of dollars!”

Samuel squeezed his heart and shouted to the people around him, “Remember this, if I faint here today, it’s all because of that unpresentable Nora Smith!”

The executives: “…”

No one said anything. Everyone watched the screen nervously.

Even though no one was saying anything, everyone was still nervous. Considering that things had already reached this point, it seemed to them that Mr. Smith was simply too calm!

Someone gulped. “I think Miss Smith had better borrow Y from the Hunt Corporation!”

“Geez! The Y of Hunt Corporation is like a national treasure. How could they lend it to us so easily? Don’t even think about it!”

As they were talking – in fact, they could no longer bear to look at the screen – they suddenly saw the One-Click Erase button for computer hard drives appear on the screen!

Immediately, everyone panicked.

Executives looked around Joel’s office. Someone was even quick to say, “Mr. Smith! If all the data is erased from the computers, we will suffer great losses.”

What was heard from the office was Joel’s voice still sounding as calm and collected as ever. He said, “Understood.”

The people outside were about to go crazy with their anxiety!

However, a minute later, someone suddenly let out an exclamation.

“Hey!”

Everyone turned and followed his gaze to see that the computers had rebooted? They had made it!

Someone couldn’t help but ask, “Surely it’s not because they’ve already erased all of our data, so they’ve decided they can now restore the computers for us, right?”

Hearing this, the executive assistant rushed to his workstation, opened his hard drive and then checked….

“Nothing has been erased!”

When the rest heard this, they all ran to their workstations excitedly!

One girl sighed excitedly and said, “Holy cow, my computer is fine now! Nothing has happened to it at all, it’s exactly the same as before! It’s like it hasn’t been hacked at all. Ah, my idol’s picture is still here!”

Another man exclaimed, “Damn, even my porn videos are still here?”.

There was a moment of silence in the executive assistant department.

The man suddenly raised his head in embarrassment and scratched his head. “I… I was just kidding…”

These people, who had stayed in the office and worked overtime, were the first to discover that the network had been restored. However, it took some time to spread the news.

In a hotel room.

A man was leaning on an armchair with one leg perched on top of the other. His black suit-clad legs were long and straight, and his leather shoes were also smooth and shiny. He looked very smug. He smiled and said, “My little maid will show up very soon, heh, heh…”.

But as he said that, the attendant next to him suddenly exclaimed, “Sir, m-look at the trending topics on social media…”

The man was taken aback for a moment. He looked over, and was struck dumb.

Then, someone rushed at him in panic. “Sir, it’s over! Yvonne has been arrested.”

“Shit!” The man cursed under his breath. “You worthless piece of trash! You’re all a bunch of trash!”

Nora had just finished repairing the network when someone knocked on the door. Joel’s executive assistant said, “Mr. Smith, look at the number one trending topic!”

The number one trending topic? Joel raised his eyebrows and looked at Nora in surprise. “You even paid for a trending topic?”

Nora: “?”

She blinked. “What does it mean to pay for a topic to trend?”

Joel gaped. He had originally thought that the incident would definitely trend on social media once Nora fixed the network, but for it to become the top trending topic so quickly, there was no doubt that someone was manipulating this behind the scenes. He had thought Nora was the one behind it, but in the end, wasn’t she in on it?

As he thought about it, Joel opened Facebook. When he saw the main trending topic, he suddenly looked at Nora with a complex look.

Nora: “?”

She twisted her neck and looked at Joel’s hand. A resigned Joel could only hand her the phone. “Here, take a look.”

The main trending topic was not the fact that Smith Corporation’s network problems had been solved. Instead, it was.

Hunt Corporation: “Need Y to help you? He’ll be there whenever you call. SmithCorporation.”

Nora: “!!!”

She looked at Joel in surprise, seeing his eyes flicker a little. Then, she picked up the phone again, connected to the Smith Corporation’s official Facebook page and answered.

Smith Corporation: “We appreciate the gesture. But the Smith Corporation is going to be fine on its own. CorporationHunt.”

Netizens, who were initially unhappy with the Smith Corporation, were shocked by the two posts.

‘We all know that the Hunt Corporation has hired Y as their network consultant; they hired such a powerful person as a consultant to deter their enemies. But isn’t the Smith Corporation being too funny here? Q was the one who invaded their network, AND yet they’re still being stubborn and refusing to accept the kindness of the Hunt Corporation!’

‘What would be a good way to say ‘We’ve got Q’?’
