While Warren was feeling smug, the other party replied:
Solo: "What nonsense is this? Can this code be used?"
Warren was taken aback.
Maureen said excitedly, "Maybe he's really a master and can see the problem with this code?"
Warren touched his nose. "No, I have to try again. Maybe this was a wild guess?"
He sent a message to the group:
Warren: "Ah, I accidentally sent the wrong code. Master, are you really Solo?"
On the other end of the line, Solo was anxious. He did not have that much time to waste with him! Therefore, he quickly typed a message:
Solo: "Yes, cut the crap. Shall we sign the contract first?"
Anti had finally relented and said that as long as he became the consultant of this silly cousin, he would not have to work for free in the future!
Solo had to seize this opportunity.
The other party had first sent a bunch of wrong codes. It was obvious that they were testing him, and did not trust him so much. What if after he helped fix the bug, the other party kicked him away and said that they did not need a consultant?
To think that the dignified Solo would one day beg to be a company consultant for someone else!
Therefore, he had to sign the contract first. He did not want to be fooled again after doing the job!
However, in the eyes of Warren and Maureen, this hasty behavior made the two of them even more certain that this was a liar!
The two of them looked at each other. Warren asked, "Sure, but what about the salary?"
Solo: "Anything. Just give me $200,000."
Anyway, he did not care about such a small amount of money. Any project he accepted would cost a million! Did he care about the consultancy fees?
No, what he cared about was freedom!
Now, freedom was waving a little handkerchief at him. He was anxious to get rid of Anti!
Therefore, Solo sent another message in the group chat: "Hurry up. I've already settled the contract for you. I'll sign an electronic one. You can just sign an electronic one too."
After saying this, he sent a contract to the group chat.
Warren:"!!"
Maureen:"..."
She gulped. "It has only been a few minutes? The contract is done."
Warren: "...He probably prepared it in advance?"
Maureen opened the contract and took a look. The amount was $200,000.
She glanced at Warren again. "Isn't this too cheap?"
Warren: "You can practically say that he's helping us for free."
The two of them looked at each other again. At this moment, they were certain that this Solo was definitely a liar!
Warren rolled up his sleeves and looked at Maureen. "How dare he deceive us, the Smiths. How hateful! Moreover, this liar is too unprofessional! Can a real high-level hacker be hired for $200,000?! It's too fake! Nora, that stupid girl, has been deceived by this person for so long! He might have also swindled tens of thousands from her!"
Maureen also frowned. "Yes!"
Warren said, "Tens of thousands is nothing to us, but to Nora, it should be a lot in the environment she lives in, right? No, us Smiths cannot be bullied like this!"
Maureen nodded repeatedly. "Yes, we have to vent our anger! But how?"
Warren thought about it and said slowly, "How about this? First, we have to let Nora know that he's a liar!"
Maureen took out her phone. "I'll private chat with her."
After Maureen sent a message to Nora, saying that Solo in the group was a liar, Nora's reply was very fast because there were only two words: "He's real."
Maureen:
Warren:
The two of them looked at each other. Maureen sighed. "It looks like Nora has been deceived quite badly."
Warren nodded as well.
