Chapter 145,A Beauty with Multiple Masks The duke strode across and asked coldly, “What happened?” Cringing, Gerald cried in disbelief, “My
carefully designed firewall and programming codes were cracked…” “Get to the point,” the Duke
demanded. “I don’t care about the process, I just want to know the results.” Gerald stammered, “Re…
Results? They will be able to track us within two… two minutes.” The Duke was perturbed by his
statement. He knew that Vinson had many talents around him, officially and in secret. He even had
Carter, who was an adept at everything related to technology.

Hence, he picked Southall Group as the location to launch his attack. He terminated all of their
communication signals to cut off any contact between Vinson and Carter. There shouldn’t be an issue since Carter isn’t in the big picture. What went wrong? Does Vinson have other professionals around him whom I don’t know? Gerald explained, “Duke, we have a decision to make. Their intention is
obvious, they want to take control of the systems. If we grant them access, they won’t have the time to
track our location. If we don’t, they’ll be able to locate us in no time.
Consequently, we won’t be able to stay in the dark anymore. Once we’re exposed, it’s harder for us to
fight them…” The duke fell silent. Once we give them full control, this plan will be ruined. Should I make
this easy for Vinson? He was very reluctant. To him, the current plan was the most ideal one as it took
place at the right place and the best time when Vinson was fully unaware of the trap ahead of him. He
wondered if he could score another opportunity in the future to deceive Vinson and pin him down.
Clenching his fists in anger, his bulging veins shown. Clicking on the keyboard, Gerald urged, “Duke,
you’ve got to make a call now. They’re getting insanely fast. I can’t even rebuild the firewall quickly
enough to stop them from getting through.
Oh no, I can’t hold it any longer. They are going to nail us in no time!” “Duke!” Frantically, Gerald stood
up and yelled in a high-pitched voice. Gritting his teeth, the Duke uttered, “Give it to them.” Relieved,
Gerald pressed the key… Across the coast, the third explosion just happened at Southall
Group. Bomb!

impact the security room directly. However, the ceiling which was already crumbling shook vigorously
due to the tremor. Losing its pivot, it was collapsing gradually. “It’s too late!”
Vinson grabbed Arielle’s hand and shouted, “Let’s go now, it’s going to fall in ten seconds!” Motionless,
Arielle stared at the screen. “I’m almost there. Soon, I’ll succeed.” “Forget it! Leave now!” Right then, a
large concrete steel fell off the ceiling from the opposite corner across the room. Comically enough, the
windows stood rooted on its fixtures, as stable as rock, without a single crack. Arielle pushed him away
and yelled, “You go first, let me try once more!” She wanted to take a risk without dragging him down
with her.
