It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 16

Justin's fingers moved quickly on the keyboard. He was deciphering the firewalls one by one. "Damn it! Which freak programmed these with so much complexity?"

At FX International Group, there was an air of anxiety in the cyber security department. Since morning, someone was attacking the company's system. The programmers were trying their best to defend the attack. They were successful in blocking all the attacks but they could not trace the IP of the attacker. It was quite normal for FX International though to be attacked by hackers, but those were all small temptations. This was the first time for them to meet a sustained attack like this one.

Yes. Justin was attacking the system program of his father's company. He did not like that his father brought a woman to their house, even though she did not stay back. The incident made him furious. He thought Edward would find something to make him busy so that he could flirt with other woman and sleep with them discreetly.

Edward was very depressed. Since this little guy came here, his whereabouts had always been found by him. He wondered who leaked his whereabouts to his son. No matter which women he was dating, Justin would call him again and again and find an excuse to fool him back. Finally he managed to bring back a beauty, but she was driven away by this little guy again. He was about to become a monk. He hadn't expected that having a son would lose so much welfare.

Justin was very proud of himself. 'You are my mother's man. If other women want to be with you, they should first ask for my consent. Humph! Why are you such a playboy? You have no eye for beauty at all. How could you ignore my mommy who is such a beauty and instead flirt with other women?'

Justin's fingers moved faster and faster. His forehead was covered with sweat. Shit! 'Who was that freak?', he wondered. He was not let in and was fought out all the way back. The firewall he had breached was re-locked by a new set of instructions again.

Well! It was not someone else. It was his father. Like father like son! Why didn't you realize that you inherited his genes? How could you beat him? Although you were clever and talented, you were still young and naive in front of Edward who was a big bad wolf. You could just be the little red riding hood.

Ever since the programmers reported that someone was attacking their internal program system, Edward had been retreating step by step. On one hand, he asked the programmers to search for the IP address and on the other hand, he made the hacker think that he succeeded and he fought back to breach his defense.

Justin looked at his computer screen in disbelief. 'Damn it! Who's that? Why is he so powerful?'

"Boss, we have found it. But the IP address is in our building and in Mr. Qiao's office." The programmer looked at Aaron in disbelief.

"What? Are you sure?" Aaron became uneasy. Who was that? He was lucky that he had always been here, or he could not have proved his own innocence.

So who could that be? Aaron had no idea, either.

"Aaron, who was in your office?" Edward squinted. He hardly doubted Aron. But he found that someone was in his office who did not appear yet.

'Who? Your son, of course!' Aaron said to himself. Suddenly his mouth was wide open and he looked at his boss in surprise. It couldn't be what he thought, could it? His boss' expression indicated that it was exactly as what he had thought. Aaron was furious on Justin's betrayal, 'Justin, I have already told you the boss' whereabouts. How could you do this to me?' So the one who leaked the boss' whereabouts was not anyone else but you Mr. Qiao.

Well. The evil we bring on ourselves is the hardest to bear. Aaron felt trapped in this situation.

Justin was still struggling. He could not accept his failure. He was so immersed that he even didn't notice that there was a person standing behind him.

'Eh? Why didn't he fought back? Would there be any conspiracy?'

"It's strange that you get in so easily, isn't it?."

"Yes! But there was a freak this time who chased me all the way just now." He answered promptly without even realizing what was happening.
