Although the opposing hacker team was exceptionally powerful, Hacker Alliance had been able to stand tall in the hacking world for many years, indicating its formidable strength.The opposition came with great hostility, but Ronin dealt with it effortlessly.He initially thought that the Duncans' cyber department was very weak. After all, in his view, the Duncans were good at making money, but they needed professionals like him when it came to technical matters.However, he didn't expect the Duncans' cyber department to be reasonably competent. Ronin organized his team, assigning them specific tasks, and the work proceeded smoothly.The sudden attack left the entire cyber department disoriented, and the Duncan Corporation's technical staff were all confused by the massive onslaught from the hackers.But once Ronin took charge, the situation changed. He seemed familiar with such attacks.In the beginning, the Duncan Corporation's technical staff were chasing and encircling the opp
Shane, upon receiving the news, was so furious that he directly smashed the office.The assistant had been with him for many years, and he witnessed Shane losing his temper so much for the first time.The assistant cautiously handed over freshly ground coffee, patiently advising, "Sir, please calm down."Shane, engulfed in rage, forgot all about gentlemanly behavior. He turned to the assistant with a fierce glare, his wide-opened eyes resembling fiery orbs. "Calm down? Those idiots spent so much money and failed to handle such a trivial matter. How dare they come back to me and ask for more money? Have they gone mad?"To bring down the Duncan Corporation's several branches in Casier, Shane exerted great effort to gather this group of hackers and offered them a substantial task reward.However, these incompetents not only failed to defeat the Duncan Corporation but also got caught in a counterattack, losing even their reward.Now, they demanded compensation. Shane thought they mus
After the discussion, Branden descended from upstairs and walked straight toward the living room. It was clear to everyone that he had come for Catherine.Standing with her back to the stairs, Catherine didn't notice Branden's arrival.Noticing her unawareness, Zobber raised her eyebrows at Catherine in a suggestive manner.Upon realizing Zobber's unusual expression, Catherine turned to look behind her."Is everything resolved?" Branden's previously icy face instantly softened with tenderness and a smile when he saw Catherine's glance. "How about taking a walk outside?"Hearing his suggestion, Catherine furrowed her brows slightly. Since early this morning, there had been a continuous stream of people coming to the old mansion to report to Branden. Given the recent events at the Duncan Corporation and Branden's busy schedule, why would he suddenly propose going out?"Is there something wrong?" Catherine inquired, puzzled.Branden, about to explain with a smile, was interjected b
Branden bought two movie tickets. He had checked online and knew that the most common way young people date nowadays was by watching movies and going shopping.Knowing Catherine's temperament and her dislike for shopping, he bought two tickets for the hottest movie.Looking at the towering movie theater ahead, Catherine turned her head to the handsome man beside her. "Watch a movie?""Yeah." Branden nodded. "Is that okay?"Seeing the bright smile on his face, Catherine didn't object.Whether it was the Duncans' old mansion or the apartment, they both had top-notch home theaters. The equipment, costing up to seven figures, wasn't inferior to those in the movie theaters.Catherine just didn't expect Branden to give up the private space and choose a public cinema.Taking the elevator, they went directly to the fifth-floor cinema. Perhaps due to the holiday, the theater was crowded with people, mostly young.When Branden led Catherine in, it attracted many eyes.Branden, dressed r
Halfway through the movie, Catherine felt a strong urge to doze off.She had no interest in this kind of romantic comedy. Catherine might have fallen asleep long ago if it weren't for two bold girls approaching Branden for his WhatsApp number in the middle.Seeing her drowsy, Branden reached out and rested her head on his shoulder. "Twenty more minutes, then I'll take you back.""Hmm." Catherine made a muffled sound, leaning quietly on Branden's shoulder with closed eyes.The movie was like a lullaby, increasing the desire to fall asleep. In no time, Catherine closed her eyes and drifted off.A few minutes later, as Catherine slept, some girls approached.When Branden noticed someone getting closer, his calm face immediately darkened, and he shot an icy glance straight ahead.Startled, the approaching girl was disoriented. If it weren't for the urging from the people around because she blocked the screen, she might have frozen in place.It was mainly because Branden's aura was
When Catherine woke up the next day, she found herself in a soft, large bed. Looking around at the familiar furniture, she reached out to touch her throbbing head and slowly sat up. This was the Duncans' old mansion, and she had slept in Branden's bed.The wild night left Catherine exhausted. She lifted the covers and slowly moved off the bed. Her legs felt extremely heavy, and as she stood up, a sharp pain shot through her, causing her to curse inwardly.As she cursed, Branden entered the room. "Oh, you're awake?" he asked.Seeing him, Catherine fell back onto the bed, shooting him a resentful look.Sensing her displeasure, Branden smiled apologetically, set down the food he was carrying, and walked straight over to her. He bent down and lifted her, carrying her to the bathroom. "Wash your face. Then let's have breakfast," he said.Catherine tilted her head to look at him, her eyes showing a hint of disdain, her hands unmoving.Branden knew she was angry, so he patiently placate
Upon hearing movement upstairs, Zobber, who had been somewhat bored in the living room, looked up. Then, she saw Branden holding Catherine as they descended the stairs. Catherine's cheeks were rosy, exuding a sweet aura.Zobber couldn't help but tease her, "Catherine, did you two just finish exercising? Indeed, young people are full of energy."Catherine gave a cold smile and looked her up and down. "What? You want to exercise too? Come on. Let's do this."Zobber was puzzled, looking at Catherine in amazement. "Catherine, are you into both men and women?"Without a word, Catherine dashed forward. Zobber couldn't dodge in time and was swiftly thrown over her shoulder.Seeing the two of them fighting, Branden walked over, feeling pleased. Paxton brought him a glass of water, saying, "Boss, have some water, please."Branden took the glass of water and brushed the dust off his shoulder, instructing Paxton, "Arrange for a massage therapist; she needs it." Since Zobber had taken the br
Branden was dealing with business from Bothor when a message popped up on the screen. Because Catherine was playing games in the office, Paxton dared not knock on the door when he had something to report. He could only communicate with Branden through online software. He sent, [Boss, something has happened. You need to take a look at this.]Squinting, Branden opened the message sent by Paxton.Casier Real Estate was a subsidiary of the Duncan Corporation, specializing in the real estate business in Casier.
