Chapter 88
Timothy agreed with Lindy.
Timothy asked, “Ms. Lynch, are you kidding? Maybe some hackers are already decoding as we’re talking to each other.
“I said it is impossible.” Gilda leaned back in the chair, looking confident, turned to Eric, and asked in a low voice, “Has he arrived?”
Eric lowered his head and replied, “In ten minutes.”
Gilda smiled confidently and said, “Let’s walk downstairs and meet someone.”
Everyone present was stunned. They thought Gilda was joking.
People whispered to each other, “Doesn’t she know this is urgent? Why is she asking us to go meet someone?”
“Does she understand how serious this is?”
“Ridiculous!”
downstairs to
Gilda didn’t take their words seriously. She stood up, holding her head high, and said, “Don’t regret it if you don’t go with me.”
Jensen stood up. “I’ll go with you.”
Although Timothy felt uneasy, he thought he had to go with the two major shareholders.
After Timothy stood up, all the directors followed him and went downstairs.
With a group of people standing behind her, Gilda eagerly awaited downstairs.
Soon, they saw a yellow taxi appearing on the road.
Everyone looked at each other. They thought they were waiting for a big shot so they all felt disappointed.
A gentleman with bright eyes, 6 feet and 3 inches tall, and dressed in a black suit, got out of the car. He looked elegant and could not be ignored.
Gilda saw Jeffrey get our of the car and rushed to meet him for the first time. “Here you are!”
Gilda hugged Jeffrey and whispered in his ear, “Jeffrey, thank you!”
“Well, it’s not a big deal.” Jeffrey said lightly, “It has been solved on my way here.”
Gilda held on to Jeffrey’s arm and laughed, “Really? I know you’re the best.”

Jeffrey touched Gilda’s head with a doting smile, which was rarely seen on his face. “You are always so
sweet.”
Jeffrey worked in the Ministry of National Cyber Security and went by AK, an expert ranked No. I on the
dark web.
Gilda had foreseen the possible risks so she had asked Jeffrey to come to Allath to ensure the security of the secret work of nanorobots during the three months of project development.
Gilda didn’t expect that trouble would come so soon. She thought she had underestimated those people who wanted to make things difficult for her.
Everyone else couldn’t figure out why Gilda did so and regretted going downstairs with her.
Gilda said, “Let me introduce to you the engineer I specially hired to encrypt this project. He has completely deleted the source code on the dark web.”
Then Gilda took Jeffrey’s hand and went upstairs.
People started to discuss it crazily behind them.
“That’s it? She must be lying!”
“Who is this man? Is he reliable?”
Jensen remained silent and looked sullen as he stared at Gilda and Jeffrey walking further and further
away.
Jensen wondered who Jeffrey was.
He wondered why Gilda and Jeffrey acted so intimately in front of so many people.
After everyone went upstairs, Timothy checked it online and confirmed that what Gilda said was true. He heaved a sigh of relief.

“It’s finally solved.” Timothy took a sip of the bottled Evian water on the table and looked at Jeffrey, who was writing code. “How should we call you, sir?”
Jeffrey replied, “Bond.”
Timothy was surprised to hear this name but he then thought that Jeffrey–probably just wanted to keep his real identity a secret.
