Chapter 755
As the end of the year drew near, it was incredibly hectic for major corporations, let alone top-tier ones like Lombard Group.
Tristan was flocked with work every day. Yet, he always made time to eat with Sophie no matter how hectic his schedule was.
Sophie had come close to settling the matter with the medical association these past few days. She decided to head to Lombard Group today to visit Tristan since he had been so diligent.
Before Sophie could even head there, she received news of Lombard Group being in hot water.
Sophie noticed that everyone’s expression was not the same as usual when she arrived at Lombard Group.
“You’re here, Ms. Tanner! Regrettably, Mr. Tristan appears to be very busy and doesn’t seem to have time to keep you company.” The female receptionist was also aware of the major incident that happened to Lombard Group.
It was not an ideal time for Sophie to be here.
Moreover, Tristan really did not have time to keep her company right now.
“What happened to Lombard Group?” Sophie inquired straightforwardly. In fact, she came here today hoping to be of some help.
The female receptionist knew that Sophie was not an outsider and directly responded, “Our system has been attacked by hackers. Ms. Tanner, Mr. Tristan is really busy at the moment and doesn’t have time to keep you company. You’d better head back first.”
“It’s fine. I’ll go up and find him now.” The restraints of the hackers’ waned as the end of the year drew nearer.
Tristan was standing there with a somber expression when Sophie arrived. The situation appeared to be particularly bad.
The man only regained his senses when he saw Sophie.
“Why did you come over? Have you finished dealing with the medical association’s matters?” She had been occupied with the medical association ever since the start of the holiday.
Sophie essentially did not have time to lose since there were numerous things to be dealt with, having the Chanaean Medical Association recently established.
“Yeah. I have some free time these days since it’s almost Christmas.” After all, even a small break would be given every year during Christmas for International Medical Association.
“I see. You should go home and get some rest first since you’re on break. I’ll come to find you after I finish dealing with things here.”
It was extremely hectic for Tristan today, and he would not be able to keep her company even though she went all the way there.
“It’s fine. I just want to stay here with you. It would be even better if I could be of assistance.”
Tristan held her hand.
“Don’t worry! There won’t be any issue. I hired a few skilled network security personnel after the previous incident. They should be able to manage the hackers’ attack.”
Lombard Group was a top-notch company, and it would be impregnable to attacks from unsolicited people.
At that moment, the leader of the network security team came over.
“The other party is very skilled, Mr. Tristan. Despite our best efforts, we are still unable to stop them. They will undoubtedly attack our core if this carries on.” By then, no one would be able to estimate how much damage it would cause.
Tristan’s expression darkened.
“Let me give it a try!” Sophie came here to help today.
Even though I haven’t done this kind of thing in a while, I want to see who exactly the other party is since I’m here.
However, she was pretty confident in her skills.
The team leader was bereft of words. He then explained, “Ms. Tanner, the other party is really skilled. We aren’t even able to handle them, so please don’t joke around.”
It was normal for a girlfriend to want to look good in front of her boyfriend. Yet, it was not the time to make a joke during this crucial matter.
Sophie decided to ignore him. He’ll only understand I wasn’t joking after seeing what I’m able to do.
“Wait for me here for a moment. Give me ten minutes, and I’ll settle it for sure.”
Sophie paid the team leader no mind and headed to the computer room.
The team leader could not help but feel concerned when he saw Tristan’s indifference.
“Mr. Tristan, the other party is very strong. We won’t be able to stop them if this continues.”
“Then, what do you propose we do?” It was their responsibility as security personnel to solve the problem instead of asking him questions.
“Mr. Tristan, I heard that the current most talented hacker, K, is now in Jipsdale. Why don’t we invite him here?”
“That’s not necessary.”
Tristan paid no more attention to him. He followed Sophie into the computer room. After entering, he saw Sophie sitting and coding calmly.
Her movements were no slower than those of skilled network security personnel, and her typing speed was even faster.
The team leader next to Tristan was extremely worried.
They’re free to express their affection however they please on normal occasions. However, can’t they refrain from doing so at a time like this? Who will be liable for the potential damages the hackers cause if they completely infiltrate our network?
Tristan did not know how skillful Sophie was, but it was obvious that she was the one who handled the previous hacking incident.
Hence, he had complete confidence in her.
Sure enough, Sophie had already solved the problem and found the other party’s location in less than ten minutes.
“They’re at this place. Contact the police now.”
The team leader standing next to her was completely stunned.
A young girl like her easily solved a problem so many of us couldn’t.
Having received the address, Tristan immediately dispatched people to catch the hackers.
Eustace, the captain of the SWAT team, was the best candidate to carry out this task.
Hence, he brought his people to catch the hackers.
“I need your skills, Sophie. Are you really not going to consider joining Lombard Group to help me?” Tristan instantly extended an offer for Sophie to join him.
She’s really amazing, even more so than those top hackers. Many companies must have wanted to recruit a talented individual like her.
Sophie sat in front of the computer. She did not get up right away after catching the hackers. Instead, she reinforced several firewalls for Lombard Group’s network.
“No. I’m doing pretty well in the medical association, and I enjoy working there.”
Although it was monotonous to experiment on animals or test subjects every day, it was not unbearable as she enjoyed it.
“Mr. Tristan, Ms. Tanner is amazing!” a few security personnel standing at the side exclaimed.
“It was all right.”
After finishing up, Sophie got up and walked to Tristan’s side.
“How about this? I’ll come and help you free of charge if Lombard Group encounters such a problem again in the future.”
Barney came all the way here just for me. How could I betray him?
“That’s fine. Let’s go to my office.” There was no need to waste more time there since this matter had been resolved.
“Okay!”
Tristan brought Sophie back into his office and left the rest of the matters to the others.
As soon as the door of Tristan’s office closed, Sophie was pressed against the door and kissed lightly by him.
