Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 120:

Suddenly, Norah’s opponent had vanished, leaving nothing behind.

Norah was caught off guard. She hadn’t seen it coming—that her opponent would pull back just as she swiftly broke through the firewall. Even though she had gotten through, she found no information.

“He escaped quickly!” Norah had to acknowledge her opponent’s speed, managing to erase data while keeping himself safe.

She found herself intrigued by the mystery hacker on the other end. She felt this person was a formidable hacker, and it would be fascinating to share thoughts with him someday.

Back on the hacker forum, she noticed a new private message from her opponent.

The single question mark made Norah think her opponent must have been quite annoyed at that moment. Considering he had just logged into the forum, only to be pursued by her into deleting data, it must have been quite a blow to his pride.

Norah felt slightly guilty for acting on a whim, but since her opponent went by “N” as his username—quite similar to her name—she couldn’t help but play a little.

Norah thought her opponent was pretty clever, keeping her from learning anything about him.

“Apologies for this time. Let’s have another go later,” replied Norah.

Sean saw the new messages appearing in the chat window and was visibly upset.

“Moon didn’t track you down, did she? Luckily, you escaped in time, or your information would have been compromised.”

The voice sounded somewhat gloating. “But why did she go after the firewall? And why did you suddenly switch your username?”

“Just skip the questions you don’t need to ask. Anything new happened lately?” Sean asked.

Sean glanced down and typed out a response. “Did I upset you?”

“No, Phillip should have filled you in on most of this. A foreign princess who needed medical treatment had been desperately looking for information on the Supernatural Doctor, going so far as to turn to Sacredice once, offering tons in return for any leads,” the voice in his earpiece reported.

“I get it. But from this point, we’re not sharing any info on the Supernatural Doctor,” Sean replied.

Then another message appeared in the chat window.
