A new message showed up on the screen: It seems like you dislike my present for you. That's strange. I thought you hated Shandie.
Arielle balled her hands into fists, then replied, “Who are you? What are you trying to do?”
There came another message shortly after the previous one: / think you've misunderstood me, Ms. Moore. I was simply trying to help you, but it appears I caused you some problems instead. I'm truly sorry about that.
Without waiting for Arielle's reply, a new sentence popped up: Ms. Moore, why don't you consider joining our team? I commend your skillfulness in hacking.
As soon as Arielle came across the word “hacking,” all she could think of was the recent explosion of the building. She narrowed her eyes and answered, “You're the one who's trying to kill Vinson.”
Another line of text appeared: Aren't you a clever one, Ms. Moore? How about joining us? I'm sure you'll become one of the world's highest-ranking hackers in no time, especially under my guidance. However, if you choose to refuse, then you become our enemy.
Arielle turned down the offer without the slightest bit of hesitation. “I'll never work with some underground hacker who doesn't even dare reveal their identity to their recruits. If you have the capability, you'll challenge me openly!”
Promptly, a different message emerged on the screen: Don't reject us so soon, Ms. Moore. You have three days to consider this carefully. See you again in three days.
Arielle was boiling with rage while she spat out icily, “Don't you worry about looking for me because I'll come for you, you cold-blooded murderer!”
Yet, the computer shut down automatically before she could finish her sentence.
“Dang it!” Arielle cursed, irritated by the unknown hacker's influx of uncertainty into her life.
She had not expected the hacker to find her here. It would seem like he had tracked her down so easily because she was using a normal computer with no cybersecurity software to protect her from malicious attacks. Thus, it had been a piece of cake for the experienced hacker to infiltrate her computer.
She rebooted her computer and coded an intermediate firewall to prevent the hacker from invading the system again.
