Mr Carlos Huo, She's Your Wife novel Chapter 883

The IT director answered in a trembling voice, "Mr. Huo, we've never seen this sort of infection before. It changes every time it hops from one computer to the next. It moves code blocks out of the way, inserts itself, regenerates code and data references, including relocation information, and rebuilds the executable. It's different every time, so established pattern definitions don't defend against it. What's more, we just can't keep up with it, since it replicates at an alarming rate..."

"Oh, is that so? Then you're all fired. Start looking for other jobs. We'll contract out for IT!" Carlos hung up the phone furiously.

Star Anise's message popped up on Carlos' computer screen again. "Mr. Huo, what's your decision?"

"One billion!" Carlos replied decisively.

"Deal." Star Anise added, "It's what I'd expected you'd offer anyway. So I was prepared to accept it. Perfect!"

Carlos' face completely darkened. If he could find out who the hacker was, he would skin him alive to vent his anger!

Carlos had thought he could track down who Star Anise was by investigating the bank account, but Dixon told him it was a dummy account. It had been shut down as soon as the hacker received the money.

He did leave them a group of numbers, which also couldn't be traced. It was for tech support and service.

Carlos wondered if he'd been tricked, but all the computers returned to normal. There was no sign of the virus that had infected them. Not only that, cloud backups were operating normally.

Successfully going through the employee recognition system at the ZL Group's parking lot, Sheffield drove inside and parked his car at a particular spot. Then, he went straight to the floor where Evelyn's office was.

This time, besides Nadia, there were two more people working as secretaries. Nadia was the first one to spot Sheffield. She stood up and greeted him. "Good morning, Mr. Tang."

"Hello! Your boss in? I have something for her." Sheffield shook the paper bag in his hand. "I know I normally let you have first dibs, but this is Evelyn's favorite food."

Nadia smiled. "Thanks, Mr. Tang. But, our CEO is busy right now..." She forgot to explain the CEO inside the office wasn't the one he wanted to see.

"Don't worry. I won't disturb your boss. I just came here to give her something and I'll leave. Don't let me disturb you. I'll be fine." Then he left the secretary division.

As soon as he walked off, two other secretaries whispered to Nadia, "Miss Hua, who is that gorgeous man?"

"Why did he come up himself? How did he get in here? Does he work for us?"

Nadia shook her head. She knew nothing about it either. With a slight smile, she said, "None of our business anyway. We'd better get back to work."

"Oh. Of course."

Before Sheffield even pushed open the door to Evelyn's office, he sang in a chirpy voice, "Eve, Eve, my dear Eve..." The door was pushed open. A man with an imposing manner dominated the sofa. His face looked cold as his gaze met Sheffield's.

With a thud in his heart, Sheffield quickly retreated a few steps and closed the door. He groaned in his heart, 'Shit! Shit!'

The man inside Evelyn's office was none other than his future father-in-law, the guy he'd been trying to avoid.

'I gotta change tactics, ' the doctor thought.

He straightened up his clothes, smoothed his hair and opened the door again.

Carlos stood at the door, waiting for him. Before he could say anything, his eyes met the old man's sharp, ice-cold eyes. In a panic, he called out without thinking, "Dad!"

Hearing how the doctor addressed him, Carlos raised his fist and strode towards Sheffield.

Realizing what he had said, Sheffield corrected himself hastily, "Hello, Uncle... Wait, wait... Can we talk about this, Mr. Huo? Don't hit me."
