Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 481

James was stunned. "Unbelievable. Who is this Raven you keep talking about?" He was unfamiliar with the world of hackers and their hierarchy, but he reckoned Raven must be quite a formidable force if his presence could set the city abuzz.

"He's supposedly an elite hacker wanted by the International Police after he breached Miridian's satellite system," Gideon explained. He worked in intelligence and had gathered some basic information on Raven.

He continued, "Raven was also S's protégé. S was the hacker who rose to fame after he single-handedly stopped Miridian from breaching our national defense system and left theirs crippled for a week.

"After their embarrassing defeat, Miridian tried to capture S and convince him to work with them. Needless to say, they failed to persuade him."

Gino piped up somberly, "Even though Miridian accused Raven of breaching their satellite system, rumor has it that he actually patched up the weak link in their system. I bet they're pulling the same old trick.

"They'll arrest Raven as a criminal on paper and acquire him for their own operations. I doubt the Department of Defense would let them get away with it, though."

His excitement was palpable. He was only invested in the matter because of Raven. He wanted to meet the legendary hacker and persuade the latter to take him under his wing if the opportunity presented itself.

With his adorable face, he might just succeed in winning Raven over! If playing up his endearing childish charms was what it took to become Raven's protégé, he would do it. After that, he would brag about it to Hera and Bernard!

"Huh. You seem to know a lot," Gideon praised as he gave Gino a surprised look.

Gino said righteously, "Of course! I'm going to be the world's best hacker one day."

The sky had darkened by the time the car slowly pulled up outside XS Corporation. Several military squads had been mobilized for crowd control outside the building. A few influencers and media personnel had gathered among the crowd to get the latest scoop.
