Chapter 1939


    ''It''s nice to have such a clever son,'' Niki thought as she leaned on the bed frame, knowing she had


    nothing to worry about.


    Then, she closed her eyes and reyed the scene where she had met Jared at the airport.


    Her eyes widened at an instant. ''Was this an illusion?''


    Niki''s eyes were filled with shock and hurt. Furthermore, it did not take Nn long to glean and uncover


    some information about Jared.


    "No wonder Dillion had the guts to arrest him! He''s a business giant in San Joto and a well-known


    figure in both the dark web and in the real world!"


    At that moment, Niki could not help but open her eyes while murmuring, "No wonder your godfather


    mentioned that he wouldn''t let me return to Hustuaburg! I didn''t think they''d be this powerful..."


    Niki could recall Leo saying, ''If they hunt her down, it will most likely be his doing.''


    ''For a person who wants me gone, he can''t be this merciless to someone who has suffered amnesia


    and is carrying a child. But who knows when he might turn against us again. For now...I guess running


    away is all we can do...''


    As he heard his mom''s words, Nn said, "Mommy, if the enemy is so powerful, aren''t you done for?"


    Niki gave him a nk look in return. "You rascal. Shut up. Stop jinxing it."


    Deep down, Nicole knew that the situation was a sticky one, but she had to remain calm nheless.


    "Jinxing? Well, jinxing it is, then. It''s a good thing you brought me along, I can help you teach that guy a


    lesson!" Nn quickly mmed the ''enter'' key once he had spoken.


    Having a terrible feeling about this, Niki turned to probe Nn at once. "Nn Riddle! What did you


    do!?"


    By the time Niki reached theputer, it was already toote. She looked at it, noticing that Nn had


    done something to quickly invade the system. She was taken aback by that, and quickly pushed Nn


    to the side, whereupon she started to recall their steps.


    "It''s pointless. By the time you unlock it, it''ll already be over as the system will bepletely unusable."


    Nn smiled.


    Niki became extremely anxious. ''How could he be doing stupid things like this to start a fight with the


    demons!?''


    "Nn Riddle! Are you insane? Do you even know that we are in the hands of the devil right now? Do


    you have a death wish? How dare you provoke him?" she yelled.


    However, the boy was still unapologetic. "I was just teaching him a lesson! So don''t worry about him


    finding out about it."


    Nn then pursed his lips proudly. Not wanting to further the argument, she attempted to breach


    Nn''s defense system before shutting his offensive protocols down.


    ''It''s indeed such a shame...Even the mighty Johnston Group''s system has copsed with no hope of


    restoration...'' Niki said, feeling her wrinkles deepening.


    ''This d*mn son! I have spoiled him too much. I cannot believe he would do such a d*mn thing. Lord,


    how could I make this up?'' she asked herself.


    An hourter, at the Johnston Group headquarters, Jared hurried over, asking, "What''s going on! Why


    did our system crash!?"


    The entire IT department lowered their heads, before the leaderpelled himself to speak up.


    novelebook"Mr. Johnston...we have encountered an unprecedented hacker attack. We''ve never


    witnessed such an untraceable attack before, the scale of which can bepared to the one from five


    years ago. This time around it''s even more disastrous."


    Jared''s heart sank when the mention of the event from five years ago was brought to light.


    Five years ago, Nicole was the reason why the Johnston Group''s system had been breached. Ever


    since then, the Johnston Group had been using the defense system Nicole had made, which nobody


    was able to crack. However, today was the day someone managed to do it.


    ''Was this a coincidence? It''s also the same day she came back...'' he wondered.


    Once Jared had thought about it, he immediatelymanded, "Let''s head out. I''ll find someone who


    can reformat the entire system, while you guys can just keep the system up for the time being until we


    can get the new one online."


    "Yes, sir." The entire IT department scrambled to their feet and left.


    Max then asked Jared, "Mr. Johnston, do you want me to call Preston and Zeke over?"


    "Yeah, let theme over and help me deal with it first." Jared rubbed his forehead to ease his


    headache, his mind brimming with thoughts about Nicole.


    "I''ll leave it to you. I''ll head back first." Jared said, wanting to return home and set the record straight


    once and for all.Content provided by N?velDrama.Org.
