Not twins novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 793

Chapter 793 Carrot And Stick Approach

Natasha continued stalling for time.

She replied calmly: What else? If I don't allow you to breach the firewall, these technicians won't realize their firewall is flawed. You've toyed with them for days. If I don't teach them a lesson, they will still think they are capable.

Cosmos had no words to refute her.

She's being sarcastic, huh?

His frown deepened.

Suddenly, Natasha spoke up. “I'm just stalling for time. Don't take it to heart.” She shot him a look.

Cosmos was unable to retort her words.

She was considering the big picture, so there was nothing wrong with her action.

It was killing two birds with one stone as she managed to trick the hacker and also mock them.

Cosmos didn't even have a chance to retort back.

He could only stare at her silently.

Meanwhile, Natasha was still battling with the hacker.

Hacker: The system is okay, but I still found a flaw in it. It is just a matter of time before I breach it.

Natasha: Thank you for teaching them a lesson. Don't worry. This is the first and last time you'll succeed.

Hacker: Oh, really? Are you that confident?

Natasha: Of course. They are only in their twenties, but they've already proven themselves capable enough to make it this far. Who knows, one day they might just defeat you.

The entire team was watching closely behind Cosmos.

This was a carrot and stick approach.

Cosmos gazed at Natasha with a conflicted look. If Natasha wins, then all will be good. But if she loses...

He narrowed his eyes.

Let's just wait until everything comes to an end.

Natasha and the hacker were still going head-to-head with each other.

As Natasha chatted with him, she set up a new firewall. The hacker soon discovered the new firewall and frowned. He commented: You're the most formidable opponent I've ever encountered.

Natasha: Really?

Hacker: No, there's someone else. That person who was with you previously. He's great at attacking, so he's also a formidable opponent.

Natasha: I'm honored by your compliment.

Hacker: Is he your mentee?

Natasha: No.

Hacker: Well, he has your style.

Natasha: Are you being direct in sounding out someone else's privacy?

Hacker: I'm not interested in your private matters. I'm just interested in him. If possible, I'd like to challenge him!

Natasha: I'll tell my son about your wishes.

The hacker was stunned. He asked: He's your son?

Natasha replied casually: Yeah!

The hacker refused to believe her. He typed out: You're lying!

Natasha couldn't be bothered to explain to him. She replied: Believe whatever you want.

Hacker: Who are you, then?

Natasha: Didn't you say you're not interested in my private matters?

Hacker: It is hard to find a hacker who can defeat me. Who the hell are you?

Natasha: If you win, I'll tell you my identity!

Everyone knew that Natasha was chatting with the hacker to stall for time, but through the conversation, they discovered that the hacker was wary of Natasha's abilities.

Natasha managed to track the hacker down without them realizing it, but they didn't seem to see her do anything else.

Their initial disdain for Natasha had now turned to curiosity.

Hacker: If that's the case, don't blame me for being ruthless.

Natasha: I can't wait!

Thus, another round of battle began.

Despite the fierce attacks from the enemy, Natasha continued to counterattack with ease, pausing occasionally as if she were flying a kite.

At crucial moments when the hacker was about to succeed, Natasha always managed to stop him.

She stared at the screen, her face devoid of any expression or emotion. Beside her, everyone had balled up their fists in anxiety.

They would clench their fists every time the hacker was about to succeed and relax when he failed.

Natasha was stringing the hacker along and also leading them on a rollercoaster ride.

It was obvious to Cosmos that Natasha was doing this on purpose as she was capable enough to defeat the hacker completely.

“He has attacked us three times, so make sure he suffers a humiliating defeat!” Cosmos exclaimed.

As they chatted, he forgot about their previous fight and grew more polite.

Natasha spared him a look. “How humiliating do you want it to be?”

“Make him regret doing this,” Cosmos replied harshly. For the past few days, his nerves had been stretched taut no thanks to the hacker.

Hearing that, Natasha decided to avenge him. She grinned and said, “Okay. I'll do my best.”

Without warning, she started attacking the hacker viciously. The hacker clearly didn't expect this as he was shocked.

Hacker: Have you been tricking me?

Natasha replied: The kids want you to die a horrible death, so I have to show them an example!

Hacker: You're quite arrogant.

Natasha retorted: This is only our second battle. Do you think you know me well?

Hacker: Let's see who'll die a horrible death.

He then began a series of vicious attacks. The screen flashed swiftly, and the rest couldn't even see the codes clearly.

Right then, Dave came over to join them. Natasha could tell it was him from his footsteps. “So? How long do you need?”

“It's quite far, so we need more time.”

“Give me a specific time,” came Natasha's low voice.

Dave frowned and pondered for a moment before replying, “Fifteen minutes.”

“Okay. I'll do my best to stall for time. However, I can't guarantee that he won't start suspecting me,” Natasha said.

“We never knew you'd go this far. Just do your best,” Dave replied.

Natasha bobbed her head and began focusing on defeating the hacker.

She knew that if she kept stalling for time, the hacker would see through her soon. Thus, she decided to use her real capabilities to attract his attention so he wouldn't start suspecting her.

They were engaged in a serious battle when the door was pushed open to reveal Alexia and Mike.

They quickly joined the crowd gathered in front of the screen.

“Dave.”

“Shh.” Dave placed a finger on his lips to hush them.

Mike immediately shut up.

Behind him, Alexia walked into the room, and her gaze fell on Kenneth.
