Chapter 480 She Isn’t Q
At the Smiths.
At the sight of Joel rushing out as though there was some kind of trouble going on, Nora narrowed her eyes. She felt that it might have something to do with herself.
She turned and walked to the car, planning to go to the company to take a look.
Unexpectedly, before she could get into the car, Cherry and Pete rushed over and clung to one of her legs each.
Cherry raised her head. “Mommy, where were you the whole day? Why didn’t I see you?! I miss you so much!”
Pete didn’t say anything, but his eyes, as he looked at Nora, were full of attachment.
Nora: “…”
To be honest, she had never neglected Cherry just because she was busy with work. At the most, she wouldn’t spend time with her to make up her sleep hours.
However, Cherry was by her side even when she was asleep. Therefore, it was true that the two children rarely saw Nora so busy that she didn’t even come home.
Nora ruffled Cherry’s hair. “Mommy has something important to do. Let Mommy go first, OK?”
Cherry bit her lip. “But I miss Mommy!”
Nora looked at Justin helplessly.
The man sighed, and a hint of a doting look appeared on his handsome face. He thought about it for a moment and then said, “Alright, let Mommy go to work. Daddy will accompany you to sleep tonight, okay?”
Cherry and Pete could only nod.
Nora finally got into the car and went after Joel. However, his car was already out of sight. After a moment’s thought, she went one round and finally headed towards the Smith Corporation.
–
After tucking both the children to bed, Justin went out.
As soon as he came out, he picked up his phone and called Brenda. She picked up very quickly. “What now, Justin?”
There was a very cold look in Justin’s eyes. “Has Nora met with some kind of trouble?”
Otherwise, given how much she loved sleeping, she would be asleep with her children at home at this time!
Brenda replied, “No, we’re just trying to solve a case.”
Justin subconsciously asked, “Would she still be out this late if all you guys are doing is trying to solve a case?”
Brenda, however, laughed when she heard what he said. “My word, Justin, do you know what you sound like? You sound like a housewife who waited at home the whole day, but her husband didn’t come home in the end! Hahahaha! Are you feeling lonely?”
Justin: “…”
Had it been any other time, he would have hung up on her a long time ago. But when he thought about Nora, he nevertheless said, “Tell me what it is.”
Brenda replied, “… I can’t tell you about it. It’s confidential.”
Upon hearing the word ‘confidential’, Justin immediately realized even further how important the matter was.
He didn’t say anything else, much less force Brenda into making a mistake at work. Instead, he disconnected the call and prepared to enter their system on his cell phone to take a look.
But before he could, his phone rang. It was Lawrence.
When he answered, Lawrence said, “Mr. Hunt, something has happened to the Smiths.”
Justin narrowed his eyes. “What’s the matter?”
Lawrence replied, “Ms. Smith supposedly offended Q, so Q has approached the Smith Corporation, hacked into their entire network, and is giving them a lot of trouble! He wants Ms. Smith to bow down and apologize!”
A lot of people from the IT department had seen the content of Joel’s chat with the other party that time.
Although it wasn’t spread to outsiders, it was nonetheless easy for people in the industry to find out if they wanted to.
Lawrence was a source of gossip himself, so he knew all the news about everyone.
Justin, however, frowned and said, “He isn’t
“He isn’t Q.”
At the same time, Nora, who had just arrived at the lobby of the office building, also received a call from Joel. Upon hearing what Joel said, she immediately gave that answer calmly and coldly.
Joel was not surprised. “Then who is he?”
“… A psycho.”
“… Well, if it’s not Q, then I will continue looking for other people for help.”
After confirming that the other party was not Q, the rest of the hackers would dare to help now.
Joel completely believed what she said. He immediately started arranging for an assistant to spread the news that the hacker was not Q.
Samuel was furious as he listened at the side. “Joel! Is he not Q just because she says he isn’t? Who else can beat Speedy so quickly besides Q and Y?! No one else in the world is that good at hacking!”
Joel glanced at him. “Granduncle Samuel, I have things to attend to here. If there’s nothing else you want, then you can leave now!”
Samuel became even more furious. “Joel, I’m saying this for the company’s sake! It’s not worth risking the Smiths for the sake of a child who wasn’t even raised by the Smiths!”
Joel looked at him and suddenly smiled. “I think she’s worth doing so.”
Samuel wanted to say more, but Joel was already looking out the door aggressively. He ordered, “Take him outside!”
“Yes, sir!”
His executive assistant rushed into the office with bodyguards and surrounded Samuel.
Samuel shouted at him angrily, “Joel, you are even more authoritarian than Ian! This is too much! Too much!! With a CEO like you, the Smiths will be finished sooner or later!”
He was dragged out of Joel’s office.
Outside the door to the CEO’s office on the top floor were several managers waiting to report urgent work-related news. When Samuel saw them, he immediately yelled, “Did all of you see that? He’s such a bastard!
“The person that Nora offended is not Q? Hah, he must really be blind! He’s going head-to-head with an international hacker just for the sake of venting his anger! He must be out of his mind!”
The managers were also stunned when they heard that the hacker was not Q.
Someone asked, “Who can it be, if not Q?”
Y was the external help that the Hunt Corporation had hired, so it was impossible that he would attack them. Therefore, this must definitely be Q!
It was impossible for there to be a third hacker in the world who could match Q and Y!
Someone whispered, “Mr. Smith must have become muddleheaded, right?”
“Yes, I also think so…”
When Samuel heard their questions, his voice immediately became even louder. “He has already proven that he’s Q with his hacking prowess! But what about you?”
He shouted at the office door, “The Smith Corporation is indeed not afraid of a hacker, but in order to vent your anger on the hacker, you have made the company suffer so many losses. Who is going to bear the responsibility for all those things on the Internet and the damage to our reputation? Also, is he not Q just because you say so? Do you have any evidence? All you’re doing is babbling nonsense. Do you think that Q will become ours just by saying that?”
While heading upstairs, Nora had already learned what had happened through the Internet.
When she finally arrived upstairs, she immediately heard Samuel’s mocking shouts directed at the CEO’s office.
She smiled sarcastically, lowered her voice, and slowly said, “He is indeed not Q.”
Samuel suddenly looked at her and said, “Is he not Q just because you say so? You make it sound as if you know where Q is!”
Nora’s lips curled into a smile and she let out a low chuckle. “I sure do.”
