“Everyone pulled an all-nighter yesterday, and they fell asleep not too long ago,” Hudson said in a hushed tone after making his way toward Jasper.
“Let them rest. Let’s talk in your office.”
After speaking, Jasper walked out of the meeting room with Hudson, Jack, and Cameron, who were all wide awake, following behind him.
Although Hudson had the highest-ranking company position in Terizone, he had the simplest office.
His office consisted of a small space separated by wooden boards. There was only a desk, a computer, a bookcase, and a few sofas in the room. Other than that, it was barren.
“It’s a simple room. After all, the company has a lot of expenses right now,” Hudson said, sounding slightly embarrassed. He poured a cup of water for Jasper.
Jasper chuckled. “That’s why I was willing to invest in the lot of you. From your stingy demeanor, I can tell that your future will definitely be bright,” he said.
Hudson nodded. He was glad that Jasper approved of his mindset.
“Although we have persevered through this incident, it was mainly because Sena stopped the attack halfway through. Otherwise, we may not have been able to recover our system even now.”
There was an overcast expression on Hudson’s face. Although he had not slept in more than thirty hours, he did not feel even a hint of fatigue. He was overcome with rage and aggravation.
“We’re still too weak. We had close to zero resistance against Sena’s treacherous means of attack!”
“How are our losses?” Jasper asked.
Hudson’s expression darkened. “We lost more than a million dollars in terms of funds. However, the loss in user count is way more significant. There has been a decline of one-third of portal visits!” he exclaimed.
Jasper nodded. The main priority of Internet companies was their user count. A decline in users was way more terrifying than a loss in cash.
“That b*stard Dane Warren is being too harsh!” Cameron Scott huffed in anger.
“Sena is now vying against Terizone, so they must still have plans for us!” Jasper said after a momentary pause.
