The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 9

All Gemma could do was marvel at Ellinor’s optimism, while she herself had already lost hope. The project proposal they had prepared for a month was now useless, and although she was extremely disappointed, there was no other solution!

She sighed, then turned and headed for the break room.

“Ellinor, you’re busy. I’ll go make you some coffee to perk you up!”

“Uh, thanks!”

Ellinor responded in a low voice, while a red progress bar appeared on the black screen of her computer. When the bar was full, Ellinor quickly cracked the password. She clicked a hidden chat box, typed a few words and sent them.

[What’s the beef?]

The hacker was shocked and replied: “Who are you? You actually breached the final level encryption system of AJ Alliance!” Ellinor’s fingers danced on the keyboard: [Who I am is not important. The point is, why are you attacking Nexus Industries? Every debt has its debtor. If someone pissed you off, go settle the score with them, don’t ruin the fruits of many innocent people’s labor!]

The hacker, not willing to admit defeat, immediately counterattacked. But he was successfully intercepted by the defense system that had already been set up. He couldn’t help but feel a little admiration for this mysterious opponent who was technically superior to him.

When Gemma returned with the coffee, Ellinor’s computer had been repaired, and all the files had been restored to their original state.

“It’s really fixed! Ellinor, you’re amazing! How did you do it?”

Ellinor removed a USB stick, spun it on her index finger, leaned back in her chair, and smiled, “I got this antivirus software off eBay that claims to be bulletproof, turns out it wasn’t lying! Gonna leave a positive review later!”

Gemma frowned in disbelief, “What! Really? The IT department said no antivirus software would work, looks like they’re the ones who are useless!”

Ellinor took the coffee from Gemma, gestured with her chin and said, “Alright, go get your PPT copied out to show Joseph

“Oh, right! I’m on it! Ellinor, I love you!” Gemma blew Ellinor a big kiss, then immediately rushed off to get her work done.
