Life at The Top novel Chapter 265

Hudson introduced Theo to everyone passionately.

Theo looked at Jack and smiled. “I know you. You used to be a high-level executive at Weresoft,” he said.

After the both of them shook hands, Theo turned over to look at Jasper.

Jasper grinned and extended his hand. “You’re the number one hacker in the country. I’ve admired you for a long time,” he said.

Theo was actually rather nervous. He was not accustomed to interacting with strangers in real life. Jasper’s confident demeanor, which radiated from his actions and behavior, made him feel particularly uneasy.

“Nice to… meet you! I don’t dare to claim the title of being the top hacker in the country. Hacking technology consists of extremely profound knowledge. No one would dare to say that they are the best of the best. I’m still learning.”

Theo’s words made everyone burst out into laughter.

A successful person must stand out in one way or another–this applied to any field out there. Take Theo as an example, who had an extremely normal appearance: He looked like any other average young man out there, and was not particularly good at socializing with strangers.

However, his reverence toward technology was enough to prove that he did indeed have the potential and ability to be the top hacker in the country.

Hudson and Jasper exchanged a glance. “Theo, I have previously told you that we would like you to join our company. You would be in charge of all aspects of network security. What do you think about that?” Hudson asked.

Theo chuckled in response. He said, “Hudson, you know very well that people like us are used to having all the freedom we want. I don’t have the intention of joining a company, so…”

Jasper laughed. “You’re extremely capable. Do you want to remain as a hacker for your entire life?” he asked.

Theo raised his head to look at Jasper. A look of distaste flashed across his face. Jasper’s choice of words made it seem like he was looking down upon hackers.

Jasper did not pay any heed to the expression on Theo’s face. He continued speaking, “You must know that as laws and regulations gradually improve, even the most highly-skilled hackers will start to experience growing restrictions on the Internet. It will be impossible for you to continue doing as you wish in such an unscrupulous manner.

“However, everything will be different if you join Terizone. With your skills, you can help Terizone build a protective firewall. During the process, you can also compete against hackers from everywhere around the world. The only thing that would be different is that you’re doing everything for a good cause.

“Don’t you want to rely on your skills to become someone respected and admired by those within the hacker industry?”
