My Wife is a Hacker novel (Nicole)

Chapter 315

He did not look at the stone-faced doctor standing across from him.
“How much longer will it last?” The brunette, mixed-raced doctor asked. “They seem to have hired highly capable hackers to steal our data. The security wall we put up can hold them off for five more days at most,” Edwin sighed. Rowan’s eyes filled with anger as he heard this. “We’re business partners. How do you expect me to go back to the big guy after such a huge mistake that you made?” Edwin felt resigned. He rubbed his face and thought to himself, ‘I really messed this up, huh? This is the kind of business we run, but now, our reputation is at stake.’ His gaze became firmer as he turned to look at Rowan and said softly, “There’s still some time. I’ll handle it.”
Rowan’s anger slowly subsided as he looked at him. “Who else can you ask for help? Even the best people you have were useless during the data breach, no?” He asked sarcastically.

Because this was their first partnership, the information that Rowan wanted them to pass out was not of a high level. However, the amount of it was large.
He did not expect that someone as reputable in this field as Edwin would mess up.
Though, Edwin was not angry at the mockery. He gently stroked the mouse in his hand as he thought of what the advanced hacker had said to him. He then thought of Preston’s reaction when he heard about Nicole, and his eyes welled up. “Don’t worry. I’ll think of something in five days.” Despite Rowan’s bad temper, he could not help but give a slight nod at Edwin’s sincerity. “I’ll try my best to find someone who can help you.” Although there were tons of skillful people in the medical field, none specialized in this matter. Edwin nodded as he heard those words. He picked up his car keys, turned to look at Rowan, and slightly tilted his head. “Where to? I’ll drive you.”
Rowan waved his hand impatiently. His eyes were stone cold as he looked at Edwin. ‘I didn’t even get to send Nicole off due to this mess,’ he thought. He pulled out his phone to make a call and walked out without saying another word. Edwin shrugged and went down to get his car. The moment he drove out of the building, he noticed something strange. ‘Is that… a helicopter?’
Edwin had always known that Rowan came from a prominent background, but he had certainly underestimated the power this mixed-race doctor held. His eyes then darkened as he thought about the hacker who breached their system.
