Chapter 609

They had just seen off Ramiro when Isla“s phone rang.

She looked at the caller ID and answered, “Hello.”

"What did you say?" Isla's face changed as she stared in disbelief. "Our

system has been attacked and is on the verge of crashing? Who did

this? How dare they attack MI6's defense system?"

Hearing Isla’s high-pitched voice, everyone present was shocked and

crowded around her.

“Isla, what happened?"

"Someone attacked us? Our defense system was developed by you

and everyone else together. How could it be attacked to the point of

collapse?"

Isla hung up with a pale face and walked quickly to Franklin.

She looked up at the handsome and cold man in front of her.

"Master, I need to go back to the technology department immediately

now. It seems that our newly developed energy source has been

targeted by someone who wants to steal it. If..."

"Go quickly," Franklin said in a deep voice with a cold look in his eyes.

"Everyone go! Summon all MI6 technical experts to the technology

department, with Isla as commander."

"Yes," Isla nodded immediately, turned towards direction of the

technology department.

This castle covered an extremely large area; The technology

department was located on its sixth floor.

Isla took the lead into elevator while others followed closely behind her.

Franklin looked down at Sylvia beside him.

Her clear eyes were tinged with indifference.

“I may not be able to accompany you today, but I'll find someone to

take a stroll with you," Franklin apologized, looking at Sylvia and

saying, "Is there anyone..."

Sylvia interrupted him, “I know someone attacked MI6's computer

system. Don't worry about me. You guys handle it first while I stroll

around here casually. Since this castle is so big, there should be some

interesting places nearby for me."

But Franklin wasn't reassured.

She had just arrived here.

There were many secret places within MI6 which were forbidden areas.

If she didn't have clearance or got into conflict with guards, then things

would not be good.

Franklin curled his lips slightly toward those black-clad men behind him,

asking, "Is anyone willing to accompany Sylvia for a walk nearby?"

How could an important member of MI6 accompany a woman at this

critical moment?

Now everyone wanted information from technology department

anytime.

They especially wanted know if their research results had been stolen

by someone else.

Franklin frowned and spoke with some displeasure, "My wife is the

mistress of M16. What's with your attitude?"

The three words "mistress of MI6" instantly made these people very

dissatisfied.

They weren't dissatisfied with Franklin; they were dissatisfied with

Sylvia.

An unfamiliar woman who just happened to be a little prettier and from

a small place like Larro. What could she possibly do?

Even if she knew some medical skills and could get an RL 133 pill, so

what? She was far inferior to their Isla.

Isla was now urgently working on saving the system while she wanted

to stroll around the castle! That was the difference!

That was the gap between them!

Seeing that his subordinates were indifferent, Franklin became even

more uncomfortable. "So it seems my wife is nothing in your eyes..."

Just as he was about to lose his temper, Sylvia pulled his arm gently.

“It's okay. I can handle this myself."

"Honey..."

Franklin knew that MI6 was always exclusive but he never expected

them to reject someone so important to him.

"Everyone is busy working on saving the system; it's understandable

for them to be worried about it," said Sylvia coldly. "Don't waste too

much time on me and go back to work."

Suppressing his anger, Franklin pointed at a random man and ordered

him, "You must accompany her."

The man panicked when he heard this, "Master, I'm an essential

member of the technology department! I have work waiting for me

there. I need to leave now!"

After speaking hastily, he rushed towards the elevator as if there was

something chasing him from behind.

All those men were afraid of being singled out by Franklin and ran away

one after another until only Vaughn remained...

Scratching his head awkwardly, Vaughn said, "I don't know much about

computers; Master, you should go now. I'll stay here with your wife."

He really didn't think everyone had to rush up together anyway.

Franklin gave him an approving look before quickly leaving with Jasper

after giving some instructions for Sylvia.

Inside the technology department room, Franklin looked very unhappy

when sitting in his seat and thinking about how disrespectful those men

had been towards Sylvia earlier.

He wondered if they had become too relaxed around him, which made

them forget who was really in charge at MI6.

They dared treat his wife so disrespectfully.

It made him very angry but it wasn't exactly a good time for losing his

temper right now...

Everyone had more important things to do.
