Top Hacker

1560 Words
After some investigations and confirming that Reed Thomas was a flawless man who had no bad habits, no criminal records, and no complicated personal relationships, Jackson thought of bringing Leah and Reed together, thus he strongly recommended for her to apply for employment in Thomas Co. But who would have thought that the two of them would quarrel the moment they met? Jackson's mommy was beautiful and talented, so why was Reed dissatisfied? He was going to give this insensible Daddy a warning! "Mommy, I've already invaded Thomas Co.’s system. How much do you want Reed to lose?" Leah thought to herself that it was more than appropriate to teach Reed a lesson for humiliating her, so she said to Jackson with a huge smile, "Jackson, you’re brilliant. Reed is a crazy person. Benevolent people like us don’t fuss with silly villains like him. Just simply making him lose 100 million would be enough." "No problem!" Jackson instantly lowered his head to work on his computer. The adorable little boy looked very focused. Angie was speechless. Just a simple 100 million? It seemed that Leah had learned how to scheme during her six years abroad! She sighed, "Leah… When you took Jackson abroad, he was just a little baby. Unknowingly, he has grown up so much and become so skilled." Leah was also impressed, "Yup, my son, Jackson, is the best!" Leah did not believe Chloe’s words back then. Jackson had been a prodigy since he was very young. He studied computer science on his own when he was three and was already a top hacker known worldwide. Would his father really be just an ordinary beggar? However, no matter who Jackson's biological father was, she would not allow anyone to steal her baby! In just five minutes, Jackson hit the Enter key, turned off his computer, and said with a sneaky grin, "Done!" Now that d*mned naughty Daddy should have received his warning! Angie smiled and said, "Leah, let's not talk about those unhappy things that happened in the past. You guys have just returned to New York. Today, I will be your host. How about a relaxing night together?" "Okay, I want to go too!" Jackson exclaimed. Inside Thomas Co., Luca anxiously knocked on the door of the president's office and said to Reed, "Mr. Thomas, an expert hacker broke into Thomas Co.'s system and altered some important documents. The IT Department staff couldn't stop it at all... We conservatively estimate a loss of about 100 million!" Reed's expression darkened in an instant. "I spend seven figures supporting the livelihood of the IT staff every year. Are they all rubbish? If someone invaded the system, then hurry up and track him down!" Luca did not dare to look directly into Reed's eyes and said fearfully, "This hacker's skills are very advanced. At present, it is impossible to trace him at our current level. However, he only changed a few documents, and... and left a code." Luca did not doubt that if the hacker wanted to, he could have destroyed all the confidential documents of Thomas Co. at once! What a frightening hacker! He couldn't recall when they provoked such a person. "Let me see." Luca put the laptop in front of Reed. After deciphering the code, there was only one sentence. "This is a warning." Dozens of old mortal enemies flashed through Reed’s mind, but they were all ruled out almost instantly. Over the years, he had spent a lot of money hiring the finest talents and building the world's safest security system. Many top hackers sent by business rivals had difficulty breaking in. Yet, this hacker easily broke through his system, but only caused a little loos and left a warning. What did he want? Luca saw Reed's dark expression and hurriedly said, "Mr. Thomas, the IT department has already begun to strengthen the system. We will definitely not give him the chance to invade again." Reed said dispassionately, "That had better be the case." He stood up and ordered, "Prepare the car, let's go to the Sky Club." Sky Club was the gathering place for celebrities living in New York. It was an extravagant location where ordinary people could not enter even if they had the money. Harrison walked ahead, holding hands with Jackson, who was dressed in a smart, tiny suit and looked absolutely adorable. Behind them, Leah and Angie strode side by side. Leah was so gorgeous that she attracted many people's attention. Harrison said to Jackson rather proudly, "Today, there’s a grand auction happening in the Sky Club. I heard that there are many rare items. How about it? Call me Uncle Harrison and I'll buy whatever you want later." Jackson rolled his eyes, "Harrison, you're so childish. Mommy can buy anything I want." "You brat, you're taking advantage of me again!" Harrison tried to tease Jackson, "Kid, hurry up and call me uncle. Would you believe me if I said I'll beat your bum?" Jackson was not afraid. He shook off Harrison's hand and hid behind Angie. Pouting, he complained, "Aunt Angie, Harrison is bullying me!" Angie put her hands on her hips and glared at Harrison, "Is it fun for an adult to bully a child? Careful or Jackson will find out all the embarrassing things you've done before and completely expose you." This was not a joke. Jackson’s hacking skills were first-class. He had never failed in digging out the information he wanted. Harrison heard the comment and said angrily, "How dare you, Jackson. You call Angie your aunt, yet you call me by my first name. Doesn’t that make me inferior to her for no reason?!" Angie realized the situation and said with a grin, "I don't mind having a nephew as old as you. Come on, I want to hear you address me as your aunt too." While the two adults were arguing, Jackson was cheering for Angie. Seeing this, Leah could not help laughing. "You guys, don't quarrel as soon as you see each other. Come and sit down." They found a relatively quiet booth and ordered some food and drinks. Harrison even specially ordered a cup of citrus juice for Jackson. The auction had yet to begin. At this time, there was an ongoing performance at the center of the stage. Harrison said to Leah while eating snacks, "The artifacts auctioned today are not to be underestimated. Look, more than half of the influential people in New York are here." Leah casually drank her cocktail. She was not interested in the auction. After all, she just came to unwind. She wore a small black dress that day, thoroughly highlighting her curves and making her skin appear extremely pale. In the dim venue, she was like a shining figure, attracting people’s attention. Many men discreetly laid their eyes on Leah, secretly thinking about the possibility of successfully courting her. The second floor of the venue was an ideal place to enjoy the scenery. Three men of varying types of attractiveness sat together, drinking and chatting. The atmosphere was relaxed and joyful. Taylor Campbell and Arian Singleton had followed Reed there to join in on the fun. Reed sat in the middle with an indifferent expression. He was determined to obtain the treasure that was about to be auctioned there that day. Taylor leaned against the railing on the second floor and looked down. Out of nowhere, he said in surprise, "Arian, there's a pretty lady there! She’s a stunner!" He caught Arian’s attention and Arian looked down too. His eyes also lit up when his gaze fell on Leah, "Not bad at all, but why is a child there?" "This is the first time I've seen someone come to the clubhouse with a kid. Reed, come and take a look. How interesting," Arian waved at Reed. Reed's eyes swept around and immediately locked onto Leah among the crowd. He could not help but frown. It's her? Taylor chuckled happily and said, "It's rare to meet a beautiful woman that suits my taste. I'll buy her a drink!" Arian ridiculed him, "Come on, aren't you afraid that the beauty is actually the child’s mother?" "Get lost. I think you're just jealous that I'm about to win her heart!" Reed didn't say a word, but his eyes were glued to Leah the entire time. Leah was well-dressed that night. She was already beautiful, to begin with. The addition of a little bit more charm made her enchanting. She was a natural beauty. ”Upon hearing their conversation, Reed felt uncomfortable for some reason and said unconsciously, "Don't bother her." Taylor was flabbergasted, "Reed, do you know this pretty lady?" Reed snorted callously and said, "I have met her once. She is just a wolf in sheep’s clothing." Taylor and Arian glanced at each other, astonished. Reed had always been cold-hearted. For him to be able to give such an evaluation meant that this woman had left a deep impression on him. The auction below the stage had already begun. The auction items were placed on the stage one after another. Taylor was still standing on the second floor, staring at Leah yearningly. "Eh? Reed, isn’t that Harrison next to the beauty?" When Reed took a closer look, it was, in fact, that brat Harrison. His face grew even colder.
