Although a bit disappointed by Rini’s rejection, Christian tried to understand.What mother would want her child to engage in an illegal activity that harms others?Christian understood that well. Even the orphanage mother, who was his adoptive mother, always did the same if Christian was led down the wrong path by someone.“I understand Rini’s concerns. But I’m here for a different case,” Christian said.“What do you mean by a different case, how?” Rini asked, not understanding Christian’s words.“So, I came here to ask Lewis for help hacking the websites of some media companies that have spread false accusations. They have all done something beyond the limits, causing someone to become depressed and even contemplate suicide,” Christian explained.Certainly, Rini, Elara, and even Lewis were surprised by Christian’s explanation.“They did that? Who has been falsely accused?” Elara asked, curious.Christian nodded. Then he said, “Yes, the person falsely accused is Maria. The explicit v
After that, Rini handed her phone to Christian to inform him of her account number. “Here, Sir, this is the account number!”But when Christian took the phone, suddenly a man barged into the house and forcibly took Rini’s phone.Christian was, of course, surprised by what happened. Initially, he thought the man was Rini’s lover, as Leopold had mentioned that she no longer had a husband. But Christian was wrong. The man was a debt collector assigned by a wealthy man around Rini’s house to collect the debt she owed him.“Quickly pay your debt to Boss Anselm. If not, I’ll take this phone as collateral!” the man shouted.Rini stood up, saying, “I’ll pay, Brother. Don’t worry.”“What are you saying? Relax? You’ve been overdue for 2 months, and you dare say relax?” the debt collector asked loudly.Christian understood the root of the problem. He stood up, trying to calm the man and find a solution to this issue.“Calm down, Brother! Relax!” Christian said.The big man turned to Christian an
Christian immediately contacted John to bring several cars to pick up Lewis and his family who were moving temporarily.Since Lewis’s house was in John’s area, Christian asked his subordinate, the one, to help bring them to Hotel Diamond.After contacting John, Christian now called Alex to prepare additional forces around Hotel Diamond to ensure the security of Lewis and his family.Initially, Christian intended to instruct his subordinate to guard Lewis’s house. However, he suddenly changed his plan upon hearing that Lewis had successfully hacked the Metropolitan News website.He was concerned that the Adolf and Godfrey people could quickly discover Lewis’s whereabouts and bring a large force to harm him.Rini furrowed her brow. Then she asked after Christian finished, “Mr. Demetri, where are we going?”“I want to take you to stay temporarily at Hotel Diamond to ensure your safety,” Christian replied.“Do we have to move everything? What about this house later?” Rini asked, concerned
Adolf was furious with Deo. Because the most likely mastermind behind this incident was Deo.He vividly remembered how angry Deo was with him earlier this afternoon. That’s why he could accuse Deo as the mastermind.But he should have been able to see Deo’s facial expression when he mentioned that he was not afraid at all of the mafia. However, it was clear that Deo couldn’t possibly dare to do anything more.Adolf was going to contact Kairos to discuss this issue. However, he refrained from doing so when he saw the clock indicating it was past 11.Even though he was sure Kairos hadn’t fallen asleep yet, he didn’t want to disturb him at this late hour. Inside him, he still felt hesitant and afraid of the eldest son of the 7th richest family in USA.The man was well aware that he was not equal to Kairos, even though they currently had a mutually beneficial partnership. It was entirely possible for Adolf to contact Kairos right now to ask him to handle this hacker issue because that was
At this moment, Christian is leaning his face towards Rini. The woman, having leaned against the wall, just stays silent, gazing deep into Christian’s eyes.Their faces are now very close, and they can even feel each other’s breaths.With just a slight movement forward, their lips touch.And this is what Elara witnesses. She is so shocked that she unintentionally makes a sound like a trapped dog.Upon hearing that, Christian and Rini immediately move away from each other.“Uh, Elara. Where are you going?” asks Rini.Elara shakes her head, then turns around and goes back into her room.“Elara!” calls Rini, but her younger sister ignores her.The situation between Christian and Rini becomes awkward due to their recent actions.Actually, neither of them understands why they did that. The strong urge, almost demonic, made them use their common sense wisely.Elara’s arrival turns out to be a blessing for both of them. If Elara hadn’t been there, they might have gone too far.“Rini, I apolo
With his background as a conglomerate, Kairos had become accustomed to meeting influential people. Most of them were the ones eager to meet Kairos and the Ashford family, seeking to strengthen their relationships for mutual benefit.About a year ago, Kairos encountered a highly skilled and renowned programmer-cum-hacker in his field.That person was known as The Whisper. Yes, that’s what people called him according to the nickname he always used when hacking.At that time, The Whisper gave Kairos his phone number, expressing his anticipation for collaboration between them. Now, for Kairos, it was the right time to realize The Whisper’s desire.Kairos immediately contacted The Whisper through a voice call.It didn’t take long for the call to be answered by The Whisper.“Hello, Mr. Kairos! I’m very glad to receive a call from you!” The Whisper said with his bass voice, sounding wet and comfortable to listen to.“Hello, The Whisper! I apologize for calling you abruptly. There’s something
Certainly, the failure to save his data made Lewis anxious.But he wasn’t ready to give up so easily because he remembered his beloved mother. At the very least, he had to try again to secure his data before someone took all of it.Lewis’s second attempt succeeded in gaining access. However, it only lasted for about 10 seconds before being bounced back.Nevertheless, Lewis was somewhat relieved because he managed to save the coordinates of his last access point. So, it was highly likely that the person who breached his security didn’t know his whereabouts at Hotel Diamond or his school. However, there was a good chance they knew his home address.After this, Lewis’s next move was to contact Christian.As he walked away from the computer room and headed towards the empty space on his right, where only an unpopular library for high school students was located, Lewis made the call.Once the call was answered, Lewis said, “Uncle Demetri, I apologize for disturbing your time. I have someth
Deo may be a recent addition to his team, having joined forces to defeat Baltazar, but his concern for Deo is equal to his concern for the rest of the troops. Hearing that Deo and his team are under attack adds both worry and anger to Christian’s emotions.“According to reports, there are more than 50 people currently assaulting Deo’s headquarters, but it’s unknown where they came from or who sent them. It’s intense right now, and there’s absolutely no communication between the two factions,” explained Rhys.Christian pulled his hair back while thinking, trying to guess who might be behind this attack. The names of Metropolitan News, Adolf, and Godfrey crossed his mind, but then Kairos’s name emerged later.“Are these troops professional or more like street thugs?” Christian asked.“According to one of Deo’s subordinates, they all seem more like street toughs and members of social organizations,” Rhys explained.Christian felt a bit relieved hearing that news. He thought that it would
