Chapter 35 – Divorced! Now What to Do?

Not long after, Bethan’s phone rang once more.

She looked at the screen. It said, (Malcolm Quinn ]. She furrowed her brows and answered.

“Bethan.

“ Malcolm’s low voice came from the other end of the line.

“I saw the news in Banyan City.“ Malcolm sighed.

“Why did you become Brettley Morrison’s maid?“ Bethan shrugged.

“It’s a long story.“

Before coming back to the country, she has made many preparations on ways to get close to Brettley. However, before she could execute any of her plans, Neil has already sent Nellie to be with Brettley. She had no choice but to become Brettley’s maid. Everything went off track from her initial plans. However, she could still handle them.

“I saw that Brettley’s people have already started dealing with the rumors online.“ Malcolm sounded stern.

“However, the party creating the rumors seems to be a tough character to deal with. Brettley’s men are having difficulty dealing with them. Do you want my help?“ Bethan let out a breath.

“No need.“ Back then, it was Malcolm who rescued her from the sea. He saved her life and the life of her three kids too. She has caused him too much trouble for the past six years.

She decided to seek revenge on her own. Of course, Malcolm knew what she was thinking about. He was silent for a while.

“I just don’t want to see other people hurting you.“

“I ‘m used to it, I’ll be fine.

“ Bethan sighed and subtly changed the topic.

“How has Nigel been recently?“

“Great.

“ Malcolm chuckled helplessly.

“I think he’s addicted to being a hacker. He has been only facing computers every day. Don’t worry. Nigel will be fine. I’m here.“ Morrison Group Tower. The atmosphere in the office was so overwhelming one could not breathe. Brettley furrowed his brows and looked at the video which was being duplicated non -stop. He frowned hard. This was the video of him and Bethan shopping. He has used all his resources and manpower, but it still could not stop the video from spreading online. Lucas secretly wiped the cold sweat off his head.

“ Sir, no matter how we tried, we can’t seem to delete the video. Someone has encrypted the video and embedded a virus into the coding of the video. We can’t crack it.“

Brettley narrowed his eyes. Unable to crack it? The Morrison Group has many amazing programmers.

None of them could crack the video? Brettley furrowed his brows.

He immediately pulled over the keyboard beside him and started decoding o n his own. He quickly located the source and locked it onto the opposite party’s computer. Back then, when he was together with Bethan Peterson, there was a period where she was crazy for hacker movies. She always shared posters of hacker movies with her friends. She thought that hackers were cool.

They were skillful and charming.

However, back then, Brettley scoffed at her ideas. However, he still studied how to become a hacker during his free time. Before he could even show off his skills as a hacker to her, she left. Brettley sighed. He has not been a hacker for six years already.

His skills were a little rusty too.

However, he still swiftly managed to break through the other party’s first layer of the firewall. At that moment, across the ocean, in a patient’s ward, a computer started blaring a loud warning sound. Nigel, who was resting on his bed with his eyes shut, immediately jumped down from the bed and went to the computer.

His firewall has been hacked into? He bit his lips and quickly typed on the keyboard. He started fortifying his second layer of firewall. His opponent was a skillful one. Nigel typed on his keyboard ferociously. Beads of sweat started forming on his forehead. This was the first time he has met a worthy opponent! Brettley looked at the computer screen coldly.

“Lucas, get me a cup of coffee.”

Clearly, the other party has found out about his existence. He was defending with all his might. Brettley wanted to see who this skilled hacker who spread rumors about him was!

When Lucas entered with coffee, Brettley was still valiantly battling over the computer.

Looking at the coding on the computer screen, Lucas was baffled. He placed the coffee on the table.

“Sir, you have not taken matters into your own hands for many years.

“ Brettley nodded and lifted the cup of coffee. He downed it all in one go. He has never been challenged like this for so many years. He also has not been so angry for many years already!

Brettley put down the empty cup and continued going at it on the keyboard! The first layer, second layer…by the fifth layer of the firewall, Nigel was sweating profusely.

He knew that his opponent was a skilled hacker, but he did not expect them to be so great at it! Nigel was always proud of his hacking skills, but facing this opponent, he could barely defend himself! Beep, beep, beep! The computer was making a piercing sound.

The system warned that not only did the opponent manage to get Nigel’s IP address, he even wanted to hack into his camera and recording devices! The opponent wanted to expose him!

Nigel wiped the sweat away from his forehead. Right before the computer was hacked, he reformatted the entire computer.

When the computer was fully reformatted, he immediately cut off the power and the internet signal in his room. Brettley caught onto nothing. The message read that the other party gave up defending at the very last minute and reformatted their computer.

It was equivalent to wiping out all the documents and contents in the computer.

Bang! Brettley’s eyes turned sharp. They were filled with inexpressible fury! Almost. He almost caught the other party red— handed! At that moment, in a patient’s ward across the ocean, Nigel was not in any better condition.

All of his data and information on his computer were all gone.

He could do nothing about it. He laid on a pillow by the head of the bed and panted heavily. It looked like his Daddy was no amateur. He could have such an amazing hacker under him!

He should not have underestimated him just by listening to Neil.

“Nigel.“ Perhaps the computer’s blaring sounds were too loud a moment ago. A blonde nurse entered and inquired gently,

“Are you alright?“ Nigel turned to look out of the window. It was a sunny day. He spoke in fluent German to the nurse,

“ I want to take a walk. My mother would bring me to a cafe two streets down. Can you bring me there?“ The nurse shook her head.

“You can’t go out in your current situation. Mr. Quinn has said so.“ Nigel looked at the nurse with his bright, clear eyes.

“ I want to.“ His eyes were filled with seriousness and determination. The nurse hesitated for a while. She could not resist his innocent huge eyes.

“Only this once.“

“Thank you.“ Nigel thanked the nurse rather shyly. He took his laptop and hard drive and followed the nurse out. The air outside was great. The sun was shining brightly too.

Nigel sat on a wheelchair, looking at the various people passing by and the vibrant scenery everywhere.

He felt a little miserable.

He has always objected to his Mommy going back home to find that man. He objected to her doing things that made her unhappy just to save him. Before she left, he had even once said that he would rather die than see her suffer.

However… He looked at the bright sunny day. He was only five. How could he not want to live? Soon after, the nurse brought him to the cafe. He ordered a glass of lemon juice. Nigel sat on the chair and opened his laptop.

Although it has been reformatted, the moment he opened the laptop, there was still a document left. He opened the document and all he saw was a message. (Don’t let me find you. Brettley Morrison.]

Just because Brettley could not locate him, he resorted to using threats?
