Chapter 88 Victor Is Here

Albert had the same doubts as Nicole. “Are you joking, Ms. Lewis? Perhaps while we’re talking, a hacker has already cracked it.”

“Trust me. That won’t happen.” Grace confidently leaned back in her chair and whispered to Luke, “Is he here yet?”

“He’ll be here in ten minutes,” Luke replied.

Smiling, Grace exuded confidence. “Everyone, just follow me downstairs to meet someone.”

Everyone in the room was puzzled and even thought that she was kidding.

“Are you really asking everyone here to welcome someone at a time like this?”

“Doesn’t she understand how serious the situation is how?”

“This is ridiculous!”

Grace paid no attention to these comments. As she stood up, she told everyone present, Don’t regret it.”

Suddenly, Benjamin stood up. “I’ll go

with you.

Though Albert felt uneasy, he had no choice but to follow the two major shareholders.

With the president following along, how could the others stay behind? Naturally, the directors followed suit.

With Grace in the lead, a large group of people stood behind her, eagerly awaiting someone’s arrival.

In the distance, a yellow cab approached them.

Everyone was puzzled, for they thought that a significant person was arriving, but it turned out to be this?

Following that, a gentleman towering six feet and two inches stepped out of the cab. He was dressed in a black casual outfit, giving him a low–profile yet elegant appearance.

“You’re here!” The moment Grace saw Victor Lewis step out of the cab, she dashed forward and gave him a big hug.

After that, she whispered in his ear, “I’m really counting on you this time, Victor.”

“Easy–peasy,” Victor calmly replied. “I’ve already taken care of it on the way here.”

Smiling, Grace hooked her arms around his. “Really? I knew you were the best.”

“Such a honey tongue.” He caressed her head affectionately.

Victor worked at the National Cybersecurity Department and was ranked as the world’s number one hacker on the dark web, known as AK.

Thinking of the potential risks, Grace had contacted him and asked him to come to Pamore. Over the past three months, he had assisted in safeguarding the confidentiality of nanorobots.

However, she hadn’t expected that trouble would appear so soon. It seemed she had

underestimated the troublemaker.

Amirate’s general manager’s actions were truly baffling and left everyone regretting their

decision to come down.

“Allow me to introduce him. This is the engineer I invited to encrypt the project. He has completely removed the source code from the dark web.”

After saying that, Grace led Victor upstairs, leaving the voices of discussions behind her.

“It’s already settled? It can’t be true!”

“Who’s that? Do we know anything about him?”

Remaining silent, Benjamin looked at the departing two people with a dark expression.

Who was that? Why were they being so intimate in front of everyone?

When they returned to the conference room, Albert checked the situation again and found that it was indeed as Grace had said.

Instantly, he breathed a sigh of relief.

“It’s finally settled.”

He took a sip of water and glanced at Victor, who was typing away at his laptop. “How should we address you, Mr. Engineer?”

“Call me Double–Oh Eight.”

Albert was taken aback by the name, wondering why someone would be called that.

On second thoughts, he figured that the engineer probably wanted to keep his identity secret, so he didn’t replace it strange.

Awkwardly, Grace smiled at Albert. “I’m sorry. His name is indeed quite unique.”

She made a funny face at Victor, her second brother, but he gave no reaction.

This time, Victor had come to help her during his vacation, so he certainly didn’t want to reveal his identity.

Yet, he just had to choose such an odd name. It was something only his peculiar mind could

come out with.

“It’s like you knew this would happen from the beginning, Ms. Lewis. You’re amazing.”

Grace nodded. “It’s nothing. I simply considered the possibility of someone causing trouble.”

“Now that the major problem is resolved…” She turned around and raised an eyebrow. “It’s

time to replace the real leaker.”
