Chapter 6 Daddy's First Warning
At the Nolan Group. âPresident Nolan, this is bad. The firewalls of the companyâs system were
breached. The other party seems to be quite skilled. We are suffering a great loss. Right now, the
conservative estimate of our losses is at 30 million.â Xavier was sweating profusely, practically risking
a beating as he came over to report his findings. Silas's expression immediately turned dark, and he
said in an intimidating voice, âImmediately get the Information Security Department on the case to
intercept the intruder.â
The Information Security Department desperately attempted to locate and patch up the loopholes
within the system, but the other party was very skillful. Despite doing everything they could, the
other party easily found chinks in their armor. Moreover, every single time they resisted the attacks,
the other party dealt an even heavier blow on their systems.
Ten minutes later, the other party arrogantly retreated, leaving behind a string of codes. When the
codes were translated, it spelled out the word âwarningâ. After a calculation of their losses, the
company reported a total loss of 50 million. Sitting in front of his computer, Silas narrowed his eyes
fiercely. This person isn't just skillful, heâs gutsy too! The technicians of the Nolan Group were
among the top technicians within their field. Moreover, the Nolan Group's firewalls sustained
billions of attacks on it every single day, and only a handful had managed to penetrate the firewalls
before. However, those technicians were completely helpless against this person! Who on earth is so
capable? Besides, what on earth does this warning even mean? âXavier...â Silas yelled. âYes, President
Nolan.â Xavier rushed over. âDid Wily Rabbit accept the request?â He lowered his eyes and timidly
replied, "H-He just refused it.â Silas's eyes narrowed slightly. âIs it because the money isn't enough?
Tell him I'll double the price.â âYes, President Nolan.â
Camila watched as the Nolan Group suffered a loss of 50 million. Then, the resentment in her heart
finally simmered down. Under Kate's urging, they went to the largest entertainment center in the
city-the
Rakuten Bar. Naturally, they brought Landon along with them too. They found a booth for four and
ordered three cocktails. At the same time, Landon also specially ordered a glass of milk for South. âI
heard there's going to be an auction tonight. Camila, if there's anything you want to bid on, let me
know. I'll bid on it for you.â He wiggled his eyebrows at Camila with an expression that seemed to
say âlook at how nice I am to you".
Camila glanced at him. âJust take care of yourself.â At the same time, three men were sitting in a
private booth on the second floor. The one sitting at the head was none other than Silas Nolan, who
had rejected Camilaâs interview just now. On the other hand, the other two beside him were his
childhood friends-Alex Road and Hayden Coleman.
Alex and Hayden had accompanied Silas here tonight. However, Silas was not in high spirits tonight-
the atmosphere for drinking was ruined. Alex glanced about the place. When his gaze landed on
Camila and her party among the crowd below, he couldn't help but chuckle lightly. âIt's the first time
I've seen anybody bring a child to a bar.â
As soon as he said that, Hayden, who was sitting next to him, glanced down too. âHmm? Silas, don't
you think that guy looks similar to Landon?â Silas, who was leaning back lazily in his chair with his
eyes closed, turned his head slightly. When he saw that table of four, his long, narrow, and deep-set
eyes narrowed dangerously.
Hayden chuckled as he said, âI only mentioned that he looked like him. When did that brat sneak
back into the country?â Seeing as Silas had yet to withdraw his gaze, Alex couldn't resist trying to
persuade him, âYou should let it go. So many years have passed; were you still going to stop him
from coming back? It was just the well-intentioned but misguided actions of a youth back then.â
Silas did not say a word. No matter how the two guys nagged at him, he remained silent. Moreover,
those secretive eyes of his kept staring at the table of four below them.
To be precise, he was staring at Camila alone.
I canât imagine how resourceful this woman is. When did she get together with Landon? Is she
trying to take advantage of Landon?
At that moment, the voice of the host came from downstairs, âNext up, we are going to begin
bidding for the Wuyou San formula. The starting bid is 500,000.â When Silas heard that, he finally
withdrew his gaze. The reason he came here tonight was because of the Wuyou San formula! It was
said
that this formula had a miraculous effect on critically ill patients. For that reason, he had been
seeking it for a long time. Now that his grandfather was in critical condition, he could only hope that
this item could buy him some time until he found the genius doctor
At the same time, Camila, who was sitting in the booth below, showed great interest in the Wuyou
San formula too. âLandon, bid on this! I heard about the Wuyou San formula a long time ago. It
might help cure your great-grandpaâs illness.â âSure,â Landon agreed without hesitation after
hearing what she said and quickly joined in the bidding. In a single bid, the price jumped from
500,000 to 5 million. Landon frowned slightly. Isn't this item just a supplement? It's not like it can
bring the dead back. Why are there so many people scrambling over themselves to get it? Just as he
was hesitating about whether or not he wanted to join in the bidding, a cold voice sounded from
the second floor. â10 million.â His voice echoed throughout the room. When the crowd heard his
bid, they whispered among themselves. That price was ridiculously high-it was a 20-fold increase.
Landon flew into a rage and looked up. Who is this foolish spendthrift who has so much money and
nowhere else to spend it?
As a result, the face that stared him down to his bones appeared in his line of sight suddenly.
Consequently, he sat down with an audible âswooshâ and pulled the hood of his jacket up over his
head, trying to hide like an ostrich burying its head in the sand.
