?Chapter 1162:


    Rex said, “We should check the security cameras. Even if there were mice, having a dozen of them all appear in Gracie’s office seems absurd.”


    Ethan’s brow furrowed in irritation. He had a strong suspicion that someone who held a grudge against Gracie had deliberately nted the mice in her office.


    But he had no clue who the culprit might be.


    “Check the security footage,” he said.


    Rex returned within two minutes, his expression tense. “Mr. Mitchell, the surveince system on the 99th floor has been breached. Someone hacked it.”


    Ethan looked at him, stunned. “When did this happen? Why wasn’t it reported? What about the other floors?”


    Rex shook his head. “I’m not sure. The secretary’s department manages the 99th floor surveince. Everything appeared normal before the person monitoring the footage, Alex, went to lunch. When he got back, he discovered the system had beenpromised. He is contacting IT now. Strangely enough, only the 99th floor was affected, while surveince on all other floors is functioning normally.”


    Ethan’s frustration deepened. “Our surveince system is top-of-the-line, with highly advanced security protocols. Not even elite hackers can get through. Who pulled this off? Check all departments immediately to ensure no projects have beenpromised.”


    Without hesitation, Rex and Neville rushed off to coordinate data security checks across every department.


    Ethan stood by the expansive window, a cigarette between his fingers, lost in thought. Who would go so far as to hack the surveince system on the ny-ninth floor just to put a few mice in Gracie’s office?


    The other floors had been left untouched. Could this really be just about mice? Who would invest so much effort in something so petty?


    Momentster, Rex and Neville returned. Neville reported to Ethan, saying, “Mr. Mitchell, we have found no signs of breaches in any otherpany systems. All ounts and financials remain secure.”


    Ethan’s frustration deepened. “Find out who is behind this. Rex, when are the cats arriving?”


    Rex nced at his watch. “In about an hour. I sent four people to get them.”
