Chapter 615 Caught in a Trance

Selena didn't try to dissuade Pierre, since she knew he wouldn't let it slide. Someone tried to hook her up with another guy, after all. He would never allow that to happen. She thought it wasn't a bad move though, since having an unknown enemy in the shadows was unnerving.

Linda was relieved to hear that Jason managed to gloss it over with the Fowler couple, but then another problem arose. Murray Group was facing a crisis. Their system was hacked, and their new lineup for the spring season was leaked.

Being a fashion company, that was a huge deal for them. Every year, the company would perform a strict evaluation to come up with a new lineup. That lineup would be kept a secret until it was released, but now, the information was leaked beforehand. That alone caused the company's share to take a dip.

Left with no choice, Jason and his father went back to handle the matter, while Jerry, Lindsay, Jocelyn, and Linda would stay back to celebrate the festival. It was just around the corner, which meant they had a lot to deal with.

On the other hand, Pierre was staring down his son after knowing that someone hacked into Murray Group's system. Any hacker worth their salt wouldn't hack any system and create a security loophole for no reason, since that'd cause them to be blacklisted. Pierre suspected that his son was behind it, for Joaquin was an amateur; he wouldn't know that rule.

When Selena came back, she was greeted by a sight of Pierre and Joaquin staring at each other, as if they were petrified. Jameson came up to her excitedly. "Mommy! I think they're in a trance!" Juniper laughed. "Daddy and Jojo's petrified!" Selena went up to Pierre and patted him. Then he moved. "Oh, the spell's broken! You're awesome, Mommy!" Jameson clapped his hands. "What are you doing? Don't glare at him! What if you scare him?"

"I think you'd better ask him what he did." Pierre pointed at Juniper and Jameson. "And get out, the two of you." Jameson and Juniper stuck their tongues out at their father, but they quickly hurried away. It's gonna blow in there. We'd better leave.

Selena turned to Joaquin. "What did you do this time, Jojo?"

Joaquin answered calmly, "I hacked into Murray Group's system."

Selena thought she was hearing things. He hacked into their system? Oh, wait. He hacked into the police's system before. Murray Group's nothing for him. Why did I tell him to look into the old lady? He must have taken that to heart. "Jojo, did you do that for me? You want to get back at that lady because she insulted me, is that right?"

Joaquin nodded.

"Thank you. You're a good boy." She kissed his cheek.

Pierre couldn't believe what he was seeing. "That's a crime, Selena! Why'd you thank him? That's going to corrupt his values!"

"He did it for me. Someone tried to walk all over me, so he got back at them. Is that wrong?"

"What? That's not what you said to me! You would have yelled at me if I did the same thing! Why did you kiss him but not me?" Double standard, that's what it is.

"Well, I can kiss you too if you're my son." Selena glanced at him.
