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
Holden had to make a difficult decision in a short amount of time.“Hurry up, Chief, make your decision!” shouted his subordinates.At the moment, Kenji was walking towards them. If there was no decision from Holden, everything would become more complicated.“Didn’t we vow that if we take a job, we have to see it through to the end? Based on that, I choose to continue this job. I don’t care who our opponent is!” said Holden, who had decided what his troops should do.The curly-haired man shook his head and said, “Chief, aren’t you wrong? We should be realistic; our troops won’t stand a chance against them.”Holden grabbed the curly-haired man’s shirt tightly. Then he said, “What are you saying? Our troops are the best of the best. Didn’t you train them? You should trust them, not be pessimistic like this.”The curly-haired man had experienced the strength of Kenji’s led troops. He couldn’t resist.“But I can also judge that my troops are not yet ready to face them. The best decision,
It turns out Holden acted dishonestly. He seized the opportunity when Kenji was unprepared and off guard, immediately delivering a powerful kick to Kenji’s stomach.Rhys, witnessing the incident, couldn’t accept what Holden did. He considered it a form of cheating.“Wow, you’re so filthy! That’s called cheating!” Rhys exclaimed.As Rhys was about to teach Holden a lesson, Kenji restrained him. “Don’t, Rhys! This is a fight between him and me, so you don’t need to interfere. Just stay quiet and enjoy the show!”Rhys held back. He respected Kenji’s words. Besides, Kenji was his senior, and this was his territory. So, Rhys stepped back.Holden’s strength was surprisingly formidable, beyond Kenji’s expectations. Therefore, Kenji became more cautious and less reckless. Otherwise, he would face painful consequences from Holden.Kenji then approached Holden, saying, “Turns out you’re quite afraid that I might easily defeat you. So, you attacked me when I was off guard.”“Is there a rule agai
Lewis turned to Christian, questioning why his mother hadn’t been informed about his early school departure.Christian immediately understood, standing up and approaching Rini, who was walking towards her son with a hint of anger.“Sorry, Rini. I actually wanted to tell you about this earlier, but Lewis arrived too quickly,” Christian explained.Rini followed Christian’s direction, asking, “What do you mean?”“So, it was Lewis who asked me for permission to leave early because he noticed something wrong with his work from yesterday, and it could be dangerous if left unattended,” Christian clarified.Rini immediately wore a weary expression and said, “Oh, what I feared has happened.”“Mom, relax, I will solve this problem as best as I can. So, instead of scolding, please help me pray now,” Lewis said with a slightly raised voice.“Lewis, you shouldn’t talk like that,” Rini whispered.Lewis scratched his head, smiling. “Forgive me, Mom.”Rini nodded, forgiving her son.Then Lewis turned
