Chapter 183

Brian left in a hurry. Something had happened to the company.

One of the Francis Group’s payment software had a severe security flaw. Hackers could use this loophole to obtain a large amount of user information. If not fixed in time, it could cost the company hundreds of millions of dollars in losses. The security center detected that a hacker was currently trying to exploit this vulnerability. For now, they could only temporarily build a new defense system.

Brian joined a video conference. On the other end of the call, everyone in the design department was working overtime to fix the loophole.

Grace was surprised that there was no overtime filming today. She was so angry at Brian that she had forgotten her fatigue. She still felt energetic when she got off work.

Nancy’s room was a floor below where Grace’s room was. When Nancy reached the fifth floor, she waved goodbye to Grace and said, “Sleep early tonight.”

Grace nodded, and the elevator door closed. When they reached the sixth floor, the waiter with the cart of wine got off on the same floor as Grace.
