My Mommy's Brave Heart novel Chapter 13

Adina’s return made Dew forget her purpose for coming to Xavier Corporation, and she left the company in a panic.

Alden followed Dew's figure as she passed by the first floor’s waiting room.

She was his mother’s half-sister and the person who, four years ago, had forced his mother to go to another country.

‘Dew Daugherty, the heiress of the Daugherty family, huh?

‘Hah!’ Alden scoffed.

He turned to the computer in the waiting room and walked over to it.

Melody was reading a picture book on the carpet and did not notice that her brother had left. She was completely immersed in her own world.

Alden turned on the computer. It was a little low in specs, but it was still capable of doing what Alden needed it to do.

He started typing away on the keyboard, and the screen turned blue. Rows of code appeared.

His mother was an expert programmer, while he was an expert at deciphering already written code. In other words, he was a hacker.

He easily hacked into Daugherty Corporation’s website.

He copied all the information about the company’s clients he found on the website, then used a foreign IP address to upload that information on a certain website.

Then, he changed some symbols in the Daugherty Corporation’s official website’s code, and it crashed!

They lived in the age of the internet, and if the official website of a major corporation crashed, it dealt a severe blow to the company’s image.

Before tech specialists of Daugherty Corporation could fix the website, they heard another piece of bad news from foreign news outlets.

Their clients’ information had been leaked!

In half an hour, Daugherty Corporation’s stocks fell by ten ticks.

Alden calmly watched the news online with a cold sneer on his lips.

This was just a small lesson.

If they offended his mother again, he would make the Daugherty family pay an even greater price.

Suddenly, someone drew closer to him.

Alden turned around and saw that Melody had come over at some point in time.

Her eyes were huge and watery, like a lake.

At that moment, her gaze was fixed on the computer screen.

But there was nothing interesting about financial news, so Alden decided to turn off the computer screen.

However, Melody grabbed his hand and stopped him.

She moved his hand away and drew closer to the computer screen.

It was only at that moment that Alden noticed that the video had changed because of auto-play, and an aloof face was now on the screen.

‘Isn’t this man… the person we ran into on the road just now?

‘Mel seems to be really interested in him…’

“Mel, do you know him?” Alden asked slowly.

But he received no reply.
