Chapter 40


    Chapter 40


    After a long time, a childish but deep voice finally came from the other end of the line. “Mom, why are


    you calling me?”


    “George, only you can help me now. I’ve run out of options…”


    Dew covered her lips, and her tears kept falling.


    She said in a sobbing tone, “Someone is viciously attacking Daugherty Corporation. There’s tons of


    negative news about Daugherty Corporation on the Inte now. The corporation’s stock prices have


    also dropped to the minimum now. If this progresses, thepany will need to announce


    bankruptcy…”


    While she spoke, there were audible tapping sounds from the keyboard on the other end of the line.


    A whileter, the deep voice could be heard again. “Mom, Daugherty Corporation has a lot of wealth,


    so it won’t go bankrupt just because of this. All the negative rumors on the Inte now are based on a


    fifty-four-second surveince video. Mom, may I know if you’re the person in the video?”


    “It’s not me… Why would it be me?” Dew instinctively started to deny it. “Someone purposely made that


    fake video to take down the Daugherty family!”


    “Really?”

    Tapping sounds on the keyboard rang out again. The deep voice had a cold quality to it. “There are no


    traces of manual edits on the surveince video. Mom, why are you lying?”


    Dew suddenly panicked.


    Why did she forget that George was way more intelligent than a normal person?


    she must have been blinded by anger. She had actually lied to George.


    She took a deep breath, “I’m sorry, George. I didn’t mean to lie to you. Your grandpa forced me to do


    this, so I had no choice … I was afraid that you would misunderstand me for being a cruel and vicious


    woman, so I dared not admit it. George, help me delete the video, okay?”


    “Wait.”


    After George uttered that word, he did not speak anymore,


    He sat in front of hisputer and stared at the screen with his ck eyes.


    The video thatsted for fifty seconds was easily broken down into countless scenes, and the scenes


    were ripped into pieces in the blue background before they were thrown into the bin.


    Just when he thought that he was going to seed, suddenly the ripped scenes automatically


    recovered and formed the original video.


    The video could not be removed!


    George squinted.


    He had been gifted inputing since he was younger, and he was especially gifted in hacking.


    Frankly speaking, if he participated in a hackerpetition, he should be able to get first ce easily.


    But now, he could not even get rid of a simple video.


    “George? Are you still around, George?”


    Dew’s nervous voice came from the other end of the phone.


    George frowned discreetly but respectfully said, “Mom, the video has been added with a password by


    the hacker, so it’s not easy to remove it. I’ll contemte it.”


    “What? Even you can’t delete it?” Dew was extremely disappointed. “Where did that bitch, Adina, hire


    her hacker from? Even if you can’t deal with them!”


    “Mom, if the news on the Inte is correct, Adina should be my aunt. What conflict do you have with


    her?” George asked indifferently.


    “Well… I have too many conflicts with her! George, bear this in mind. Your aunt’s a selfish person. She


    almost caused the Daugherty family to go bankrupt five years ago. Now, she’s be more


    aggravated. She insists on destroying the Daugherty family! Your grandparents have fallen sick


    because of anger, and I haven’t slept for the whole night. I’m having a severe headache right now…”


    Dew started crying again. “If this video can’t be removed, thoseizens on the Inte won’t spare


    me. What should I do…?”


    “Maybe we can do this.” George pursed his lips. “I recently became in charge of a project, and I haven’t


    confirmed my coborator yet. If I make the announcement to cooperate with Daugherty Corporation,


    maybe it can distract the Inte’s attention.”


    “George, do you really mean it?” Dew became extremely happy All these years, she had used


    countless ways to connect Daugherty Corporation to the Winters family,


    However, Duke had turned down their coboration for different reasons all the time


    She did not expect to actually benefit from this misfortune!


    If Daugherty Corporation achieved a coboration with Winters Corporation, Daugherty Corporation


    would immediately get promoted to an unattainable height.
