“How long do you need to fix the system?”

A technician answered, “Probably by 10 pm, President Nolan.”

10 pm? So, that means I’m going to have leftovers for dinner at her place later. At the thought of that,

Eugene angrily questioned the technician, “What? You guys need six hours to fix a small issue like this

one?” Eugene threw his weight around, trusting in his own capabilities, considering his seniority in The

Nolan Group. Therefore, he directly spoke his mind.

“President Nolan, this is the best it is. If anything happens halfway, it could delay until tomorrow.” Those

words were only met by Eugene’s sulky silence as he soon left the room, only to be greeted by

murmurs of complaints from the other employees who gathered together.

“When is the system going to be back online?”

“I’m only interested to know whether my data would still be in the system after it is back to normal. I

spent the entire week working on the proposal, so you might as well kill me if it’s gone.”

“Nah, I doubt it’ll still be there. We should be grateful if the system can be fixed.”

“I have a feeling that the hacker who did this to us is not someone to be trifled with. I just spoke to the

technician, and even he doesn’t know when it’ll be fixed.”

Upon hearing those words, the image of a little silhouette suddenly flashed across Eugene’s mind.

Then, he stepped outside and gave Olivia a call to tell her what happened before making his way to

Imperial Kindergarten. By the time he returned with North, it was already five in the afternoon. As he

exited his car, he held the little boy’s hand with a smile on his face. Meanwhile, North was seen holding

a lollipop with his other hand in the pocket as if he was the coolest kid ever. After entering the elevator,

Nolan asked, “Your mom has invited me to your place for dinner later. So, how long do you think you’ll

take?”

“I’ll know when I have a look at it, but I believe it’ll be done right before your date with Mom.” The child’s

words put a smile on Nolan’s face as he gently patted his head. Not long after returning to the office,

their presence was soon noticed by everyone else as they all gathered together and began gossiping.

“Who’s that child?”

“Is he really the president’s kid?”

“He is so handsome and cool. If he were my son, I’d laugh in my sleep, wouldn’t I?”

“First, you need a handsome father to have a handsome child.”

“Hey, look, the president is carrying the child while heading to the computer lab.”

“Wait, what? Is he going to let the child solve the problem in the lab?”

“You’ve got to be kidding me. That kid looks like he is just turning seven. What can he do? It’d be good

enough that he doesn’t cry and make a scene here.”

In the meantime, Eugene entered the lab with the child and courteously greeted the technicians in

there, but yet no one took North seriously. “North, do you think you can fix it?” Nolan’s eyes fell upon

the little boy whose eyes were glued to the monitor screen.

North took the lollipop out of his mouth and confidently replied, “Give me five minutes!” Eugene was

taken aback by the child’s words but was soon convinced when he recalled the time that this prodigy

made a billion vanish from a company’s bank account without a trace. Therefore, he said, “Alright, do

your thing then.”

Then, Eugene turned his attention to the technicians and ordered them to make way for the child. “Step

aside, guys. He’ll do it.” The technicians were all shocked and stunned as they gazed at Eugene,

probably thinking that their president must be out of his mind to let a child handle something so

complicated. Despite their reluctance, they were still rather polite and courteous to Eugene. “President

Nolan, whoever is doing this to us is a skilled hacker. If we stop what we’re doing now, the company

could suffer a huge loss. Moreover, we’ve already found a lead to work on the fix, which we’re sure that

we can get everything done by 10 pm tonight.”

“Let him do it,” Eugene knitted his brows and said.

“President Nolan, it’s a crucial moment now, and I’m afraid we can’t stop what we’re doing. If we do, the

whole thing will have to start all over again, and all the hard work we did in an hour will go to waste.”

The technicians were reluctant to give up and apparently against Eugene’s idea.
