Anything For Her

Chapter 227

Survival Instincts “Your mentor? How can I contact him?” the client urged. No matter what, I must destroy Lombard Group. “I don’t know. He often travels. The last time he contacted me, he said he was in Xemrich.” “I’m leaving. I didn’t accomplish the mission, so I won’t take your money!” The hacker spun on his heels and strode away. One day, I shall beat Phantom up to a pulp! The man said nothing and watched as he left. He knew how it felt to be defeated by someone else. “Tristan, don’t you worry. I shall make sure you get a taste of your own medicine!” the man vowed viciously. When Tristan arrived at Lombard Group, the problem had already been solved. “What? Another person popped up and hacked into the hacker’s laptop?” Tristan couldn’t believe his ears. If the engineers I paid handsomely to protect my company’s system are helpless against Phantom, who else is capable enough of hacking into his laptop? “Was that really Phantom?” he asked doubtfully.

Tristan couldn’t believe that the hacker was Phantom. He had never offended Phantom, so there was no reason for Phantom to attack Lombard Group suddenly. “I don’t know either. The engineers were the ones who said that!” Felix wasn’t good with computers and wasn’t a match for the hackers. When Tristan came over to Sophie, the latter quickly deleted all traces on the computer. “What are you doing?” Tristan asked. He noticed she was busy since his arrival. “Nothing.” Sophie clicked into a game calmly and pretended to play it. “You must be bored. I shall bring you and Ysabelle out to have some fun.” It was the holidays now, so they should be having fun. Her winter holidays have just started. It will last for around ten days. That’s too little. “I’m fine. I’m not bored. You should go back to work. Don’t worry about me.” She wasn’t lying when she said she wasn’t bored. The hacker was slightly less capable than her, so it took her some time before she successfully hacked into his computer. However, she knew she would only improve whenever a capable rival appeared. Otherwise, it would be boring to stay the same. It was lonely to be unbeatable at the top.

No one else will be at the top forever!” Sophie tried to defend the engineers. The hacker was almost as good as her, so it was natural for the engineers to not be his match. “Nevertheless, as they are in charge of Lombard Group’s network security, I think they aren’t good enough at their job.” “That I know. That’s why I’ve never stopped looking for Phantom. Alas, this hacker is too mysterious.” Why did he suddenly mention Phantom? “I heard

it doesn’t hurt to try. Phantom is the only hacker in the world who can guarantee my company’s network security,” Tristan responded. “Mr. Tristan, did you misunderstand Phantom? No one can guarantee anything in this world.” Truth be told, Sophie thought they had made her a legend when she was just better than the average hacker. “Soph, you have no idea how capable Phantom is!” Tristan told her. That was the first time Sophie had ever heard Tristan lavishing praises on someone. “Is he or she that capable?” “Mr. Tristan, stop it. Sophie will get jealous if you continue praising Phantom!” Felix joked. No one would want to hear their boyfriend praising another person, though the person’s gender remained unknown. Sophie shot Felix a look, and the latter immediately shut up. “Fine. Pretend you heard nothing from me.” Tristan might be scary, but his girlfriend was scarier. It only took a look from her to scare Felix into silence. Sophie was pleased as he finally fell silent. “Sophie, stop bullying Felix! Look how pitiful he is. Never mind if Uncle Tristan picks

cares about me. Look at how they bullied me! Poor me. Why did they make things difficult for me?” Ysabelle rolled her eyes. “Fine, you’re the most pitiful man in the world!” she responded in resignation. Poor guy. He got bullied by Uncle Tristan, and now Uncle Tristan’s girlfriend bullied him, too. “Ysabelle, didn’t the son of the Ackhurst family take a liking to you? He seems like a good man. Why don’t you try dating him? Doesn’t that sound like a good idea?” Tristan suggested suddenly. Felix
