The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 269

After they were out of the kindergarten’s compound, Harvey began to probe Jean.

"Uncle Jean, why did you come to get us so suddenly? Did something happen?"

He was smart enough to know that Jean was here for a reason. So he was pretty excited to know why.

Jean nodded and did not beat around the bush. He answered, "There’s something I need your help on."

Sammy knew that Jean was talking about him. He looked up with excitement and yelled, "Uncle Jean, just tell me what you need. I will do my best to help you!"

"My company needs your protection system. Of course, you’re not helping me for free. You will be compensated handsomely, including the cost of buying your internal defense system. You will get what you deserve."

Although Jean was seeking help from children this time, which was quite an exception when it came to his business partners, he was not going to manipulate them into helping him just because they were children.

He was being very professional. Although Sammy was just five years old, Jean decided to treat him like an equal business partner.

Sammy did not even need to think about this. He was all in.

He would never reject Jean since, in his eyes, Daddy needed him now.

Soon, Jean brought them to the Beauvort Group.

When they almost reached the headquarters, they leaned on the car windows and took in the magnificent view of towering buildings and the cityscape around them. They could not help but exclaim in awe.

"Uncle Jean, your company is so cool! This is even better than Grandaunt’s company!"

Jean watched their awestruck expressions with wry amusement.

Soon, Ian drove them into the underground parking lot.

In order not to kick up a ruckus, Jean brought them to an elevator that would take them directly to TorrentCloud. He was currently in the office of the network tech department.

"Mr. Beauvort!"

TorrentCloud immediately stood up and greeted him.

Jean nodded imperceptibly and asked him, "How is the outcome of your test? You know, the one I asked you to do two days ago."

TorrentCloud immediately replied, "This system is too amazing. In the past two days, the company’s servers were under attack more times than I could count, yet the internal defense system could not only rebuild the firewalls, it could launch attacks at the hackers as well. The inventor of this system must be someone extraordinary!"

His voice was shaking with all that excitement. He continued, "Mr. Beauvort, I wonder where you found such a talented inventor. We really need people like that. If the company can hire that person no matter the cost, it would be such a game-changer for us!"

Jean quietly listened to TorrentCloud, and a faint smile played on his lips. He simply shot a glance at Sammy behind him.

"Sammy, I’ll leave things to you from here on out! Besides TorrentCloud, no one is authorized to assess this place. You don’t need to worry about someone discovering your skills."

Sammy froze when he heard a familiar name.

"TorrentCloud? Do you mean that hacker who is ranked second internationally?"

"Yeah."

Jean chuckled.

Only then did TorrentCloud realize that there were three little kids behind Jean.

They were so adorable that TorrentCloud was blown away by their cuteness.

Whose kids are they? Why are they all so cute? Why is Mr. Beauvort bringing them here?

Did they have any kind of relationship?

When TorrentCloud was still befuddled, Sammy stepped forward and said without shying away, "Uncle Jean, give me a computer!"

Jean replied, "You can use any of the computers here."

Sammy was not surprised to learn that. He chose one and climbed onto a chair. Then, he began to rattle away on the keyboard.

TorrentCloud was shocked to see this.

Sammy was so focused on his work that TorrentCloud could not believe what he saw. How could a kid be so proficient at handling a computer?

When he saw the endless code on the monitor, he was even more shocked!

This kid was probably still in kindergarten, yet he was about to code. This was something so rare and extraordinary!

Most importantly, TorrentCloud recognized this particular code. It was precisely the one that he was testing not long ago!

It turned out that this kid was the creator of this internal defense system!

This was so mind-blowing and eye-opening that TorrentCloud did not know how to react.

For a moment, he almost thought that he was delusional. This could not be real.

In fact, his response was similar to Ian’s response a while ago.

He began to question his own intellect since he could not even compare himself to a kid.
