Not One, But Two!

Chapter 119

Ethan sported a dark expression, and the atmosphere in that place felt suffocating. The hacker gulped. Fortunately, he had leaped away from his computer in time, or he would've become injured. King was truly incredible. Not only had she found their location, she even managed to detonate their computer. However, Ethan appeared to be fuming now.

"Damn it! Who is King? Find out for me!" An incensed Ethan swept everything on the table to the ground.

The hacker replied cautiously, "No one knows who King is. She usually doesn't take on tasks, but once she does, she never loses. She's a legend in the hacking world."

"Greg is lucky enough to have King's help. Find out how much money he offered her, and we'll invite King over with double the amount."

His words made the hacker fall into a dilemma. "Young Master Ethan, King only accepts tasks when she feels like it. When she's in a good mood, she'll accept the task even if it's just a small amount of money. When she's in a terrible mood, she'll turn down the offer even if it's 100 million."

"She's really something, but I like it. Just find out more about her for me."

Ethan no longer felt heartbroken for the computer. After all, he hadn't expected to steal any secret information from Greg to begin with. It was just that he was feeling unresigned, so he wanted to create some trouble for him. Since King had made a move, he'd better keep it lowkey for the time being.

As soon as Greg arrived at the company, Troy said to him, "Mr. Buckley, King has accepted our task and stopped the other party from hacking into our system. However, there might be something wrong with her brain."

"What do you mean?" Greg frowned.

Troy hurriedly explained, "We offered her 100 million, but she rejected it and only took 10 million. Don't you think there's something wrong with her?"

Upon hearing that, Greg was surprised as well. There's someone in the world who doesn't want more money? That's odd! "Are the company's secrets safe?"

"They're all safe, and it seems that King destroyed their computer. Our engineers said she used a program that can detonate a computer." Admiration was written all over Troy's face. "King is truly amazing. If I have a chance to meet her in the future, I'll certainly take a photo with her."

"We'll talk about it if you can find her."

Since the crisis had been solved, Greg felt frustrated. He was supposed to be keeping his girlfriend company at home. However, he had rushed over to the company to find that the problem had been settled. If he went home now, he might disturb Abigail's rest. At the thought of this, he decided not to return. "I told you to get the villa renovated. Has it been completed?"

Troy had no idea why Greg wanted to get the villa renovated, but he still replied honestly, "Not so soon, Mr. Buckley. It's still in the process of renovation. However, if we don't touch anything else and only install an air purification system and some other stuff, we can speed up the process a little."
