CHAPTER 13-BUSINESS PROPOSAL

A rhythmic sound of keystrokes filled in the air in the dimly lit room where George fingers danced across the keyboard like a maestro conducting an orchestra. Navigating through the maze corridors of his private computer system hidden beneath the Ravenstone mansion, his eyes intently scanning the lines of code, searching for any anomalies that might betray the presence of an intruder.

Strange error messages can be seen popping on the screen, series of glitches and irregularities manifested themselves and files appeared to have been corrupted.

A cold shiver ran down on George's spine as he delved deeper into the system and realizing that he was not alone in the digital realm.

"Columbus Parker," he muttered under his breath, his voice laced with anger and determination. He had known it all along, and he expected his longtime enemy and business rival to attempt to sabotage his system, hoping to disrupt his operations and gain an advantage in the cutthroat world of high-tech industries.
