"What?"

Queenie abruptly sat up from the massage table when she read the reply on her phone. Her reaction startled the women undergoing spa treatments next to her.

"What's wrong, Queenie?" one of them asked.

Queenie realized she had overreacted. She simply smiled and then casually reclined back.

"It's nothing. I'm simply discussing a collaboration with a hacker called Raven."

She pretended to be calm, but her inner turmoil went into overdrive when she learned that the price tag soared to two hundred times the original price.

The asking price had exceeded six hundred million. Unexpectedly, Raven had jacked up the price by a hundred times in just a few days. Queenie couldn't help but wonder if the hacker Raven thought money grew on trees.

"Raven? The country's top hacker? My son is always raving about him and thinks he's amazing. With just a snap of his fingers, he's made eight figures. It's impressive to see you negotiating with him," another woman remarked.

"My son is also obsessed with Raven. He's been skipping his studies to learn computer hacking."

"If you manage to recruit Raven, it'll be like obtaining a guardian angel for the Gaskells. Who would dare mess with your family?"

"At this rate, your family is headed to the top. Soon, you'll be mentioned among the four influential families."

"In the future, it won't just be the four influential families anymore. It'll be the five influential families."

As they showered Queenie with compliments and attention, she felt a wave of contentment wash over her. It even soothed the effects of her earlier inner turmoil.

Queenie aimed to elevate the Gaskells to the same level of prominence as the four influential families.

So, she obtained Raven's contact information from Amelia with the intention of recruiting him. Without hesitation, she drafted and sent out the message.
