Chapter 116 Was It You?
“Did you block the hacker?”
North said mischievously, “Yeah, I planted a virus in their computer. It makes the screen turn blue when
they switch it on!”
Olivia helplessly laughed. “You are such a naughty child!”
He scoffed. “I don’t give second chances!”
Upon hearing the conversation between mother and son, Eugene was utterly astonished and instantly
recalled the time when he rejected her job application at his company. In no time, his company lost a
total of 50 million. The second time it happened was when he and Olivia fought for the ownership of the
Wuyou San formula. His company had ended up losing another 50 million, which was when he
suspected that it had something to do with the pair of mother and son. However, he never expected
that the person who had caused him to lose 100 million would be a little kid, who was younger than
seven years old!
If Eugene hadn’t witnessed the speed of Nathan’s fingers across the keyboard and if it weren’t for the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtlatter’s intimidating tone of speech earlier, he wouldn’t have guessed that it was really the young boy!
Was infecting someone else’s computer with a virus as easy as changing a single digit? Unbelievable!
It was of little wonder that the boy could run a thorough investigation on him.
Eugene turned and looked at North. “Were you the one who gave me the warning?” Although it was a
question, his tone was sure and resolute.
North was slightly taken aback and his round black eyes blinked innocently at Eugene. “Would you
believe me if I said no?”
“No, I wouldn’t!”
North sighed in exasperation. “Alright, it was me!”
Eugene was surprised yet delighted. How could his son be such a genius? He stood up instinctively
and wanted to give the boy a hug.
However, Olivia didn’t know his intention and thought that Eugene was reacting in anger. She
immediately explained on behalf of her son, “Um, Mr. Nolan, I had instructed North to do it. How about
this? I’ll compensate you for the amount that your company has lost!”
Eugene was stunned. He initially wanted to brush it off, but another idea suddenly surfaced in his mind.
He looked at her, saying, “He hacked into my company’s computer twice and I’ve lost a total of 100
million. How do you wish to pay me back?”
She looked over at her son. “Wasn’t it 50 million?”
Eugene gradually calmed down from the agitation and returned to his seat. He said in a relaxed tone,
“After that, when I returned from the bar, he caused me to lose another 50 million.”
Olivia looked over at her son again and whispered, “Why did you let him lose another 50 million?”
North’s chewing never stopped as he answered, “He bullied you!”
She was speechless. What a cheeky little boy… Why is it that he feels no remorse for owing someone
so much money? If that was the case, then her son shouldn’t have admitted it—yet he did. She smiled
awkwardly at Eugene. “I can’t give you 100 million in one go. How about I pay you back by
installments?”
Eugene was unaffected by her pleas and said calmly, “This isn’t about money!”
Olivia did not expect that. If this isn’t about money, then what is it about? “Then, how would you like to
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsettle it?”
Eugene was overjoyed in his heart, but his expression remained unchanged. “Would you be okay with
whatever I say?”
She was becoming suspicious. “Let me hear it.”
North’s eyes widened at Eugene from the side. He would not hesitate to make Eugene lose another
100 million if he dared to bully Olivia again.
Eugene looked straight at her and said solemnly, “Unless you personally make me dinner, we can’t
settle this!”
Upon hearing his words, Olivia suddenly had the urge to laugh. Did he spend so much effort just to
request a meal from me? “Had I known that my cooking is worth so much money, I would’ve signed up
for a cooking class instead!”
Eugene’s mouth curved into a slight smile. “It’s not too late to sign up now!”
She sat down after realizing that he wasn’t genuinely wanting them to pay him back. “My mother used
to say that girls don’t need to know everything, but they only need to master a single craft to survive in
life. So back then, I left everything behind and focused on my major in fashion design. After I
graduated, my mother had also passed away and since then, I had no one at home to cook for me.
Someone once said that happiness is limited. I guess I used up all of mine way too early and now, I’ve
lost my happiness when I’m an adult.”
