Chapter 1537 Hacker
Right then, his phone rang with a call from Ollie. Ollie wanted to know if he had blocked the attack and successfully hacked into the hacker’s system. Hearing that, Gaston roared at him angrily.
‘‘Gaston, what’s wrong?’‘ Ollie asked cautiously.
Gaston might be hot-tempered and unpredictable, but this was the first time he had ever lashed out at Ollie. Thus, Ollie couldn’t stop fear from creeping up on him.
‘‘What happened?’‘ Gaston laughed in anger. ‘‘The hacker ended up copying the data on my laptop!’‘
Hearing that, Ollie gasped in shock. He had never expected that Gaston wouldn’t be a match for the hacker.
‘‘T-The data shouldn’t be important, right?’‘ Ollie kept his voice low. ‘‘Normally, we save important data on our flash drives.’‘
Usually, people would save important data on a flash drive instead of their computer. After all, they might run into a hacker who could hack their computer anytime.
Gaston fell silent at his words.
Indeed, most people would usually save a copy of their important data on a flash drive and delete the original copy on the laptop. However, Gaston was the top hacker in Turlen. It had never crossed his mind that someone would hack into his laptop and copy his data one day.
‘‘I had no idea someone could actually hack into my laptop!’‘ he barked. With that said, he hung up and kicked a chair beside him to vent his frustration.
When Ollie told the queen mother about Gaston’s failed attempt, she got so furious that her eyes turned red.
‘‘Is there no better hacker available?’‘ she asked.
Ollie remained silent, although a thought flashed across his mind. The best hacker around is the one who is currently hacking our system.
‘‘For now, this hacker is the best,’‘ Ollie responded calmly.
The queen mother cut the line, utterly enraged. She didn’t know if the hacker hacked into her network deliberately or was only doing that for fun.
Meanwhile, after Arielle copied Gaston’s data, she hacked into the queen mother’s banking system. Her eyes narrowed when she saw a huge sum of money being transferred out on the day she got shot.
When Harvey came in and saw her grim expression, he asked, ‘‘Do you need my help? I knocked, but you didn’t answer. I was afraid something had happened to you, so I came in without getting your approval.’‘
Arielle didn’t blame him for coming in. Shaking her head, she said, ‘‘I don’t need your help. I can do this myself.’‘
Harvey nodded and gave her a glass of water.
‘‘Thanks!’‘ Arielle accepted the glass of water and thanked him.
‘‘There is no need to thank me, so you may drop the formalities,’‘ came Harvey’s answer before he turned to leave the room. The door clicked shut behind him.
He had decided to forget about Arielle. It might seem easy, but it was difficult to accomplish in real life.
Back then, he had purposely told Xavier that the young lady he slept with was his future wife. He was actually trying to relay the message to Arielle and Vinson.
Perhaps they won’t feel guilty if I fall in love with someone else.
Arielle turned and glanced at the door. Squinting her eyes, she started reflecting on whether she was being too formal with him.
After pondering briefly, she decided to treat him like a friend. Since they were friends, there was no need to make things awkward.
She sipped on the water Harvey offered her and placed the glass aside. Staring at her computer, she started typing furiously again. Five minutes later, her lips curled up into a smile.
