Chapter 116 Was It You?
“Did you block the hacker?”
South said mischievously, “Yeah, I planted a virus in their computer. It makes the screen turn blue when
they switch it on!”
Camila helplessly laughed. “You are such a naughty child!” He scoffed. “I don’t give second chances!”
Upon hearing the conversation between mother and son, Silas 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 Camila 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
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtseven years old! If Silas hadn’t witnessed the speed of Landon’s fingers across the keyboard and if it
weren’t for the latter’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.
Silas turned and looked at South. “Were you the one who gave me the warning?” Although it was a
question, his tone was sure and resolute.
South was slightly taken aback and his round black eyes blinked innocently at Silas. “Would you
believe me if I said no?” “No, I wouldn’t!” South sighed in exasperation. “Alright, it was me!” Silas 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, Camila didn’t know his intention and thought that Silas was reacting in
anger. She immediately explained on behalf of her son, “Um, Mr. Nolan, I had instructed South to do it.
How about this? I’ll compensate you for the amount that your company has lost!”
Silas 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?” Silas
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.”
Camila looked over at her son again and whispered, “Why did you let him lose another 50 million?”
South’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 Silas. “I can’t give you 100
million in one go. How about I pay you back by installments?” Silas was unaffected by her pleas and
said calmly, “This isn’t about money!” Camila did not expect that. If this isn’t about money, then what is
it about? “Then, how would you like to settle it?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSilas 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.” South’s eyes widened at Silas from
the side. He would not hesitate to make Silas lose another 100 million if he dared to bully Camila again.
Silas looked straight at her and said solemnly, “Unless you personally make me dinner, we can’t settle
this!” Upon hearing his words, Camila 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!” Silas’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.”
