Chloe bit her lip gently, a hint of sadness creeping into her heart. Rose, who was always cheerful, radiant, and confident, had such moments too...
"...Yeah, you got a point."
"So, you must come to see me off tomorrow, got it? I want Morrison to know that I've got a badass friend like you backing me up, just in case he decides to mess with me too much."
Chloe chuckled lightly, "If he's truly afraid of me, that'd be awesome."
"Then remember to give him a warning tomorrow! Scare him a bit."
"Will do."
"We've got a deal then. My flight's at half past nine tomorrow morning. After you finish work tonight, come straight to pick me up. Then you can stay over at my place."
Chloe blinked. Was that part of the plan?
"...Sure."
"You took so long to answer. Are you afraid Mr. Harper won't approve?"
Chloe paused for a moment, "No such thing."
"Hmm, that's reassuring."
After hanging up, Chloe didn't put down her phone, propping her head up with both hands.
Rose...
After a while, she let out a sigh, lifting her head ready to work. Her gaze swept over her computer screen, where two people were still clashing.
A news headline, "StanTheMan is the other man," kept appearing and disappearing, then reappearing again.
Chloe clenched her teeth--these two men!
All the users of this platform were probably close to tears. Their carefully maintained platform was thrown into chaos by these two troublemakers. Even if the problem were resolved, the restoration and maintenance work would take a lot of time and effort.
Was it because they thought programmers were pushovers?
She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, opened her eyes again, put her phone aside, and stared at it for a long time. Then she slowly moved her hand to the keyboard!
With her eyes closed, she hit a few keys. When she opened her eyes, a whole screen of dense codes appeared on her computer screen.
She instantly closed her eyes again, her temples throbbing, as if someone had pulled a nerve in her brain, causing a cold sweat to break out from the pain. Bearing the pain, she scanned the screen, then began to type rapidly.
The social media platform had clearly been messed up by these two. After they broke through the firewall, some programmers were trying to fix it urgently, but Chloe still managed to break in with ease.
Then came the sound of rapid typing again, and the top spot of the trending news was replaced by "Congrats on Rose's wedding!"
All the netizens were avidly following the news. They were taken aback when this unrelated headline suddenly appeared.
"Where did this come from?"
"Is it Aamon or StanTheMan?"
"What’s this Rose... Oh, I remember now, she's the future wife of Morrison from the R City. They are getting married because of her pregnancy."
"But why did she suddenly pop up? This news appeared like a bolt from out of the blue."
"Hasn't enough strange stuff happened today? It's a bit odd, but I'm used to it."
"Congrats on the wedding! But who put this news up?"
"Is this someone publicly challenging the two big shots?"
"It's about to get interesting, but I bet it'll be taken down by those two soon."
"Excited to see what happens next."
Everyone waited and waited, but there was no response. It took almost twenty minutes for the news rankings to change. The top few spots were all occupied by the "Congrats on Rose's wedding!" news.
