Chapter 704 No one expected this strange and eerie situation to occur before they departed. Everyone was at a loss, especially the technical experts who were becoming more and more anxious by the minute. As the team leader, she had no choice but to turn to Sylvia for help. For some reason, she inexplicably believed in Sylvia and liked to rely on her.
Sylvia's cold gaze fell on her anxious face. "Let's go." Meanwhile, all of the technical experts gathered in a small meeting room at the hotel. Vaughn's ten fingers were flying rapidly over his keyboard as he stared fixedly at his computer screen. The others were also busy working quickly; no one dared to slack off even for a moment.
As they watched the data flashing rapidly on their computer screens, everyone became increasingly nervous and tense with an oppressive atmosphere hanging over them.

Vaughn's expression immediately turned gloomy as he shook his head. "It isn't working here either." "I can't take it anymore!" cried out an expert while scratching his hair fiercely. "My hair is falling out while our system is malfunctioning!” "I've been working overtime for so long..." "Ah! | want to go home! Why is this happening?" More than one person was emotionally breaking down under pressure; several people started losing control of their emotions altogether.
Everyone was very worried; Vaughn couldn't help but stand up and say, "I know all of you are very anxious right now, but | believe... Miss Andrews should be able to fix this problem for us if we wait a bit longer." "Why should we wait for her? Do you think she's a goddess or something? Is she omnipotent? How could she possibly understand anything about new energy systems?" shouted an impatient expert.
"She knows something about computers but has never touched our internal research-and-development secrets regarding new energy systems before," added another expert sarcastically. "Vaughn, don't you think your idea is ridiculous?" The words dripped with sarcasm;the atmosphere in the entire conference room became extremely unpleasant Everyone had high hopes for the new energy system, ready to show those trash who's boss. But now... if there was really no way to solve this, Master Franklin would be the first one to get slapped in the face.
"| think... it might have been a virus or Trojan invasion,” Vaughn said, calming down. "It looks very much like it, so don't worry too much. Maybe we can solve it soon." "Vaughn, what are you talking about? If you're so great, why don't you try now?" Everyone's mood got worse. The insults kept coming.
Vaughn was trying to calm them down but hearing their words made him angry too. "What do you mean? The new energy system is a shared success and failure. What are you guys doing? I'm trying to reassure you and yet here y'all are giving up on yourselves?" As soon as he spoke those words out loud, the few technical experts who were previously venting their emotions suddenly shut up.
Someone stepped forward to smooth things over. "We're all upset because we can't solve this problem right now. Let's just wait for Miss Andrews and see what she can do." "If she can solve it then great! If not... then we'll just have to leave it up to fate.” A sense of hopelessness filled the meeting room.
Vaughn felt like he couldn't take it anymore. "Why don't we call Master Franklin and tell him that something went wrong here since none of y'all believe in Miss Andrews anyway--" "I'l take a look first." Suddenly a familiar female voice sounded from outside the door.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSylvia! It was Sylvia! Vaughn was overjoyed at her arrival; his whole face lit up as if he had seen a glimmer of hope.
Sylvia walked into the meeting room with Isla by her side.
Everyone treated Sylvia politely except for some people who looked unimpressed with her presence.
Ignoring their gazes completely, Sylvia sat directly in Vaughn's seat before looking at the computer screen. "There's an issue with the new energy system?" "Um, take a look at this, it keeps showing system crash prompts. It was running fine before," Vaughn quickly said. "Also, | have some of the system's code that | can show you to get a better understanding...” Before he could finish his sentence, Sylvia interrupted him. "I know the source code, no need to show me." She sat in front of the computer and her slender fingers began tapping on the keyboard.
Her gaze was cold as she stared at the computer screen.
