Chapter 310

Violet set her phone down with a satisfied grin, and Simms and Yulia couldn't help but smile too.

“Oh, right—Violet, didn't you have something you wanted to say earlier?"

Simms had been too distracted by McNeil's absence to notice Violet's earlier mood, but now that things seemed to be going well between her and McNeil, he finally remembered to check in.

Violet picked up a piece of cake and took a bite, savoring its sweetness. "Nothing important," she said.

Meanwhile, Victoria was working herself ragged at the office. Luckily, whether out of sudden generosity or because he'd promised Violet to take Gwyneth out, McNeil messaged her to say he'd handle their daughter's pick-up for the next few days.

Victoria could hardly believe her luck. She'd just started to pick up a lead on K- someone practically legendary at Quantum Core Technologies. Supposedly, K held the company's most critical algorithms in his hands, but unless there was a crisis, no one ever bothered him—and even then, seeing him in person was rare.

She'd gotten a sliver of information from George: K was an eccentric. Nearly everyone who'd tried to meet him ended up frustrated or bewildered by his bizarre ideas.

No one dared to talk much about him, either. K's background was mysterious, and it seemed he only coded for fun-helping out when he felt like it, ignoring everyone when he didn't. Not even the CEO could force him to do anything on a bad day.

As George passed by her desk, Victoria called out to him.

"George, about that favor I asked?"

He looked at her and sighed. "If you insist on meeting him, you'd better prepare yourself."

"I have no choice," Victoria said. "Without him, I can't finish the next phase of the program. He's got the latest algorithm, and if I can master it, it'll save us tons of time and make our product nearly impossible to crack."

She knew that once a product became a hit, copycats were inevitable. That kind of damage was nearly impossible to undo.
