Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared) novel Chapter 501

Chapter 501 

Later, the staff joked that even an earthquake wouldn’t stop their CEO from having a meeting

But who would’ve thought a kid could make him pause such an important shareholder meeting to take him out to eat

This was totally unexpected

Leo started to wonder if the kid was the CEO’s secret love child

But the CEO wasn’t gone for long

He came back pretty quickly

The meeting went on, but the kid didn’t show up again

Everyone was a bit curious

Where did this kid go

When Leo went to the CEO’s office to get some documents, he found Mr. K had arrived and was playing with the kid

No wonder the kid wasn’t brought back to the meeting robm

Mr. K was the company’s cybersecurity director

Word on the street was, he was once a top international hacker

Loads of big international companies had tried to hire him, but they all got rejected

He and Jared were tight

Rumor had it they were family friends and grew up together

Jared treated him like a younger brother

Jared pulled all sorts of strings to get him to be the cybersecurity director at the branch office

When Leg walked in, all he heard was Mr. K and the kid discussing something about a DDoS attack. Leo didn’t understand a word

He didn’t expect this kid to carry a conversation like that

They were discussing highlevel hacker jargon, and it was quite the sight

But Leo didn’t think much of it

He grabbed the documents and headed back to the meeting room

When he got back, he was taken aback

The meeting room’s network had suddenly crashed

The company had its own network and security systems

This kind of thing had never happened before

Normally, the company’s defense system was rocksolid and should’ve been able to handle this

Because once the network crashes, the entire company’s work has to stop

Even if it’s just for three seconds, the losses can be enormous

Jared was also a bit surprised and furrowed his brows

Before anyone could react to what was happening

The meeting room’s network suddenly came back online

Everyone thought it was just a small problem

So, no one paid much attention

Half an hour later, the meeting ended

Jared returned to his office

Léo followed behind

Just as they opened the door

Mr. K ran up quickly, grabbed Jared’s arm, and pointed at the kid on the sofa drinking milk, saying, Jared, where the hell did this kid come from? He’s terrifying.Jared was puzzled, What happened?” 

Mr. K still looked shocked, This kid used hacking techniques to remotely shut down one of the company’s internal network routers, causing the entire network to crash, Jared, don’t you think he’s a monster? He’s just a kid. My hardbuilt defense system was hacked by a kid, I can’t believe it, this boy must be a monster.” The little boy looked up, his expression calm, Sir, you asked me to destroy the network system here. I did as you asked, why are you calling me a monster?Mr. K was utterly stunned, He just called me a noob, he actually called me a noob, I’m a top five global hacker, and he called me a noob, a noob!”
