Chapter 110

Alone in the office, Briar glanced at the closed door, then at Ashton’s desk. After a moment’s hesitation, she slowly got up and walked over,

Settling into his chair, she placed her hand on Ashton’s keyboard and took a deep breath.

Ashton’s quick response to the earlier incident made it clear he was a true computer expert. Anyone that skilled would be extremely alert to

any changes on their own computer.

If someone touched his computer, he would notice. No matter how carefully they tried to cover their tracks.

It was an instinctive sense, and what she was doing now was definitely a huge risk.

If Ashton noticed anything strange, she’d be the first person he’d suspect. After all, she was the only one who had access to his computer during this time.

He’d even entered his password right in front of her.

But she had to act fast before Ashton realized what was going on. She needed to erase any traces she’d left on the computer.

The laptop on the couch was Ashton’s personal device, and it was synced with the desktop.

Even if she deleted all her browsing and usage history from the laptop, it would still be accessible on this computer.

A minute later, Briar settled back onto the couch. Everything on the desk looked exactly as it had when Ashton left–like nothing had ever been touched.

She tore open a bag of chips, crunching away at them, looking completely at ease as she went back to her game as if nothing had happened.

Meanwhile, in the large conference room, the atmosphere was anything but calm. Ashton had just dropped a bombshell on everyone.

“Mr. Wade, are you serious? A legendary hacker actually helped us block that virus attack?” one of the executives asked.

“Who was it? We’ve got some elite hackers here, and none of us could crack it. How could someone else be that good?” another added.

It made sense that they were so stunned. The Wade Group was packed with talent.

They might not be the best in all of Dasmieca, but they definitely had the most top experts. For someone to act even faster than these people was almost unthinkable.

The fact that the Wade Group had suffered a cyberattack from an unknown hacker was simply inconceivable.
