Her Return, His Regret by Natie

"Sir, there's been a cyberattack on your personal assets!" Lawrence Scott, Ryan's assistant, reported.

Ryan furrowed his eyebrows. He had a question mark on his face as he said, "That's not possible. My assets are well protected."

"Clearly they are not, Sir. This hacker was able to log into the system and made you lose a hundred million dollars. They've also hacked into your crypto portfolio and distributed one hundred thousand Bitcoin tokens to other traders," Lawrence explained. Ryan furrowed his eyebrows. He opened his portfolio and sure enough, his bitcoin had been tampered with. As he was assessing the impact of the attack, his screen suddenly blinked and a message popped up. [This is for hurting your wife.]

'My wife? Larisa?' Ryan's heart skipped a beat when he read the message.

Did someone know Larisa and how she died six years ago? Was this their way of making him pay for not saving her?

Ryan's heart clenched with guilt and his stomach churned as the image of the warehouse going up in flames flashed through his mind.

"Sir, I've told the tech team to trace the IP address of the hacker. I'll also report to the police immediately-"

"No," Ryan remarked firmly. His jaw was tight as he tried to rein in his emotions. "Don't call the police."

Lawrence's eyes widened. He hesitated and said, "B-But Sir... You've lost a lot of money-"

"It's fine. It's just a few million dollars. I'm a billionaire," Ryan remarked cockily, but the smirk couldn't reach his eyes.

Lawrence fell silent, seeing the pained look in Ryan's eyes that he was trying to hide. 'Since when is the boss so generous?' He mused.

When Lawrence left, Ryan laughed at himself mockingly. If there was someone out there wanting to make him pay for Larisa's death, then so be it.
