Chapter 186 Xipil Reemerges
“Janet, it’s impossible for your uncle to do such a thing. There must be some misunderstanding.” Although Mathilda was unhappy, Janet had the final say in the Longfellow Group, so she could only smile.
“Janet, no matter what, he is your uncle. This kind of punishment is too heavy. In my opinion, you can fine him. There is no need…”
“Mathilda,” Janet interrupted Mathilda with a cold face and said in a low voice. “I have already been lenient on this matter. I have done my best to not call the police. If you feel that the punishment is unfair, then you can call the police.”
Mathilda did not expect that she would be so ruthless, and her face turned ashen.
When Coral heard the word “police”, she could not help but point at Janet and curse.
*Janet! The Longfellow Group should belong to my dad, and I am his daughter. Who do you think you are? Let me tell you, one day you will have nothing and wag your tail like a dog, begging for mercy. My dad still has a lot… Ah…”
Smack!
A crisp slap sounded, interrupting Coral’s words.
Coral looked at her mother in disbelief and screamed, “Mom! Why did you hit me? Is what I said wrong? Janet is…”
“Shut up!” Mathilda glared at Janet hatefully.
Then she quickly smiled at Janet, “Janet, Coral is still young and ignorant. She doesn’t have a sense of propriety when she speaks. Don’t lower yourself to her level. Your uncle is loyal to the Longfellow Group. He doesn’t covet it at all.”
These words made Janet sneer in her heart.
She didn’t say anything. Mathilda was in such a hurry to explain, which meant that she had a guilty conscience.
*Coral is older than me? How can she be young and ignorant?” Janet looked at Mathilda and Coral with a mocking smile.
*Janet, damn bitch!”
“Coral!” Janet’s expression suddenly changed. Her face was gloomy, and her eyes showed a bit of fierceness. She warned, “Sometimes.. you have to pay the price if you say something wrong.”
Coral was shocked by her. After coming back to her senses, she screamed and pounced on Janet.
“You dare to threaten me! See if I will tear your mouth!”
Looking at Coral, who was baring her fangs and brandishing her claws as she pounced on her, Janet flexibly avoided her, neither fast nor
slow.
Coral pounced on her too fast and lost her balance. She fell with her face facing the ground.
Janet smiled and asked, “Are you in such a hurry to pay tribute to me?”
In pain and anger, Coral raised her head, bared her teeth, and cursed at Janet.
“Coral! Your face…”
When Mathilda saw the blood on Coral’s mouth, she immediately panicked, while Coral herself did not know what had happened and
touched her face at a loss.
Then, she screamed and cried, ignoring her image, “Ah… Mom, save me! Save me!”
Mathilda quickly helped Coral up and went to the hospital ignominiously.
The farce ended, and Janet finally regained peace.
She breathed a sigh of relief and was ready to continue working.
After a while, Marco came with a document and placed it in front of her.
“Ms. Longfellow, this is the document sent by the organizer of this year’s International Hacking Competition.”
Janet took the document and read it carefully.
When she participated in the competition back then, it was not like this.
“Ms. Longfellow, will our group send someone to participate?” Marco asked.
Janet pondered for a moment. She had an idea since the beginning. Now that the Longfellow Group was going to transform, it was
necessary to involve the Internet, software, and new media. Hacking Competition was an opportunity.
However, the Longfellow Group currently did not have a powerful professional hacker. It was likely that they would lose. It seemed that she
had to participate in the contest herself.
Janet instructed Marco, “Submit the registration form and information to the organizer. You will be in charge of the selection of
participants. Report the names to me before submitting it.”
At this time, an idea struck her.
Xipil who had been unknown to the public for many years would reemerge, whose first official announcement was to become a special technical consultant of the Longfellow Group. This was undoubtedly a great help to the group.
Thinking of this, Janet smiled.
It was a wonderful feeling to sign herself as a special consultant.
On the other side, as soon as Nathaniel arrived at the company, Alfred went to him with the rules of the International Hacking Competition.
After reading the rules, Nathaniel pursed his lips without saying a word.
He had intended to send a team to participate in the competition. The value of this competition was very high. If his team could take the championship, he could obtain more opportunities to cooperate with some government-funded companies, for example, National Security Agency that had previously invited Nigel
Even if his team did not win the competition, he could still come into contact with some technology geniuses and might have a chance to
hire them for his group.
He kept an eye on such a good opportunity. Janet naturally wouldn’t miss out on it. After all, she intended to advance in this direction.
He began to look forward to meeting Janet there when the time came. The last time he lost to her. The Webster Group couldn’t lose again
this time.
At the thought of the contest, a person popped up in Nathaniel’s brain, Xipil, a hacking genius.
Xipil became famous after the competition back them. Nathaniel wanted to recruit him, but he couldn’t find out whether the hacker was a man or a woman. The person seemed to have never existed and disappeared completely after the competition.
For some reason, Nathaniel felt that Xipil would appear again, so he had been paying attention to all the hacker competitions and related competitions at home and abroad.
“Mr. Webster, do you think Xipil will appear this time?”
“Who knows? If this person appears, don’t even think about disappearing again.” Nathaniel said confidently.
