"Gentlemen, if you will." Douglas opened the door and gestured for the two men to go out.
Although Frederick felt annoyed, he could feel the threatening pressure emanating from Bernard. It was a sign that he was about to get angry.
After all, it was true that they were the ones in the wrong.
He didn't want to give Bernard a chance to reprimand them in the future, so he could only smile. "You're right, Uncle Bernard. Roman, let's go. We'd better wait for Bernard in the meeting room."
Roman looked displeased, but he still understood what Frederick meant. They would comply by going outside, but they wouldn't do such a thing as knock and reenter the room.
It was better for everyone to go to the meeting room and discuss any matters of business there. At the same time, Bernard had better make sure that they didn't catch him with any dirty business.
"Okay," Roman drawled and went out with Frederick.
The moment the door closed, Bernard immediately returned to the coding page. However, the codes looked abnormal. The other person's computer was turned off.
With just a bit more time, he could have gotten the other person's information, but they escaped. How interesting! If they met again, the other person would not get away so easily.
He reopened WhatsApp and sent a message to Samson. Then, he logged out and turned off the computer before going out of the room.

At Skyview Heights, Hera was eating takeout. She kept on thinking of the internet address that she failed to hack that afternoon and searched for it on her phone. It was Shuttle Ventures' official network.
Grandmaster of Astral Nova was at Shuttle Ventures?
If she recalled correctly, it was a small subsidiary under Killian Corporation. Now, it was under Bernard's supervision. Grandmaster of Astral Nova invited her to meet at the Imperial Hotel at 2:00 pm, which was not far from Shuttle Ventures.
Suddenly, her phone rang, disrupting her train of thought. It was from Leon.
"Raven, I'm in Norburgh with Damian. He's here to record a show. Are you available to have lunch? We want to thank you for treating Damian, allowing him to recover fully."
