Chapter 179
“Dinner’s ready. Go wash your hands,” said Laura as she walked out of the kitchen.
Avery immediately brought the two children to wash their hands.
It was 9:00 p.m. in the children’s room. Hayden had his eyes opened as he wondered about what
Avery had said before dinner.
“La,” Hayden called out to his sister.
“Hayden, you are still awake too? I’m scared. Elliot is so handsome, but he is a bad person. Sob, sob,
sob. Why does he want to strangle us?” La stretched out her hands hoping her brother would hug
her so she would feel safe.
Hayden told La his spection, “Maybe he is our father.”
“What?” La shouted in surprise.
“La, we need to take matters into our own hands. We need to find the truth.” Hayden decided with a
n in mind.
“What should we do, Hayden?” La asked while she looked at Hayden with her big round eyes.
“Go to sleep first,” said Hayden.
The next morning, the inte of the Sterling Group broke down. Thework security team started to
investigate the problem that caused the inte to break down.
Elliot rushed to thepany as soon as he heard the news. How could the inte of such a huge
organization break down so easily? It was the first time such a major disaster had happened since the
When Elliot arrived at thepany, the first thing he did was take a look at the IT department. After
that, he returned to his office and switched on theputer. It turned out hisputer was being
hacked too.
All of the employees’puter screens were showing a green screen with a tongue sticking out emoji.
Whereas, Elliot’s screen was different. His screen was showing a provocative sentence, ‘Come and
strangle me, you *sshole!’. The wording was red-colored with a green colored background. The mixture
of those two colors was high in contrast.
While looking at the sentence, Elliot squeezed his eyebrows tightly together. *sshole? It was such a
childish word. He tried hard and could not figure out what kind of an adult would have said it to him.
An hourter, all of theputers were recovered back to their normal operation. However, it
did not apply to Elliot’sputer. The virus in hisputer was different from the rest of the
employees. As a result, all of the IT experts gathered in Elliot’s office trying hard to decrypt the virus.
Chad guessed, “Mr. Foster, your nephew was once hacked too. Could it be the same hacker?”
Elliot said, “The previous hacker purposely used Cole’s information. We have not found out his real

identity yet.”
“This hacker seems to be roaming around us,” Chad analyzed, “First it was Cole’s phone, then the
security footage of Ang Special Needs Academy, and now he has targeted ourpany’s inte.
What is his goal?”
Elliot did not know either. When Shea was lost, she was not hurt. Hence, the hacker was not after
Shea. Thus, the hacker must have targeted either Cole or himself.
At that moment, Hayden suddenly appeared in Elliot’s mind. Elliot only knew that Hayden had just
transferred into Ang Special Needs Academy. The principal said the boy does not talk to strangers.
However, the teacher told Elliot that he had made a promise with Hayden that they would not get into
each other’s ways and that was why he continued studying at Ang Special Needs Academy.
The boy was definitely not as simple and pure as he looked. Elliot decided to go check on Hayden’s
detailed information once he exited thepany.
