Chapter 558



.

Justin narrowed his eyes and immediately called out to Brenda. He asked, “What exactly is going on? Clarify.”

Obviously, he didn’t know that a new employee had joined the special department, so he had to ask her for the details.

Brenda told him what had happened.

Justin was silent. Then he said, “I see.”

Brenda: “…”

He panicked. “What do you mean, ‘I see,’ Ruth is not a kind soul! It’s obvious she’s a complete bitch, AND she keeps making things difficult for Nora in the department both overtly and covertly! It’s so infuriating! Hurry up and contact Y! Isn’t he the one who listens to you the most? Get him to blacklist Ruth, lest he use her name to gain leverage around here!”

Justin replied, “Yeah, okay, I’m hanging up.”

Brenda: “???”

As she looked at the disconnected phone, she just felt so anxious for Justin.

Nora was already so angry, why didn’t he seem anxious at all? Besides, this was a really complicated situation.

After all, Y was just an employee of Hunt Corporation. To be honest, even Justin would have no right to interfere with Y’s right to make friends, would he?

Besides, most of the special department’s employees were men. Once they cleared the air, everyone would put the matter aside and not hold any grudges.

As a result, the atmosphere had become harmonious again.

“Ruth, are you really that familiar with Y? You have him on Messenger. And he also responds instantly to your messages.”

Ruth lowered her head and smiled, “We’re fine, I guess. He didn’t answer me all day yesterday, though, so I got mad last night. That’s why he’s paying more attention to me today.”

Nora “…”

Ha!

That scumbag had sent her a few messages the day before, but she hadn’t listened to him. Turns out she had gone to cajole Ruth and make her happy instead? Even if Ruth didn’t even really know Y, she didn’t feel like heeding Justin now!

Nora took a deep breath.

At that moment, Damon walked over to her and leaned in a little. “I’m sorry, Nora! I’ve been too impulsive just now. I spoke to you when I didn’t even know what was going on. I know you’re probably still angry. You can hit me and vent your anger.”

Nora: “…”

The corners of her lips tightened as she looked at Damon. However, she couldn’t be bothered to hit him, so she said, “No, it’s okay.”

She wasn’t specifically trying to help Damon when she helped the special department, so she didn’t mind one bit what he had said.

Seeing how aloof she was being, Damon turned red as a tomato. He knew he had been wrong, so he couldn’t bring himself to apologize to Nora either. As a result, he could only take a step back, embarrassed.

At that moment, Johnson suddenly looked at Nora. “Miss Smith, since you can get Q to do what you want, why don’t you try, on behalf of the special department, to ask Q to join us again.”

Nora looked at him and replied very slowly, “Q can’t be bothered to join the department.”

She turned and prepared to leave.

However, it was at that moment that she heard Ruth take the initiative to speak. She said, “I’ll try to ask Y when he’s free! But Y is unsociable and eccentric, plus all teachers in a specialty have hot tempers, so he may not agree.”

Johnson was delighted. “Great! You’ve got to help us on this one, Ruth.”

Then he looked at Nora and sneered again, “Isn’t that doing the computer department a small favor? I don’t know why some people are so arrogant.”

Nora: “?”

She turned sharply to Johnson, only to see that he was already singing Ruth’s praises. “You’re a great partner, Ruth. If you can get her to join the team for us, you’ll be making a great contribution to the team! I’ll definitely promote you.”

Ruth lowered her head and smiled as she said, “No, a promotion is not necessary. I just hope the special department is doing better and better.”

“You are so self-aware! Unlike some people, who only care about themselves and never consider the department! You are a much better person than she is.”

Johnson continued to flatter her.

Nora curved her lips in disdain and fell silent. Morris walked over to her, lowered his voice and said, “Don’t hold it against her! I know you’ve done a lot for the department.”

Nora: “…”

Was Morris afraid that she would be angry and that was why he had gone over especially close to comfort her?

However, there was no need for that!

It wasn’t as if she were a child.

Nora was about to speak when a hesitant voice approached again from the side. “Nora… I know you’re very angry with me, but I’d still like to have a little patience and ask you something….. Can you introduce me to Q…to me…I promise I won’t bother him. I’ll just ask him the occasional question.”

Nora looked at Damon. The man had already lost the accusatory attitude of a moment ago, and there was a pleading look in his eyes.

Nora sighed and replied, “Q doesn’t have a Messenger account.”

No sooner had she said that than Ruth’s surprised voice rang out. “Q doesn’t have a Messenger account? How can that be? Everyone uses Messenger these days to contact each other, so why wouldn’t I have one?”

His words brought the mood back to something serious.

Everyone looked at each other, forming a guess in their hearts. They were too embarrassed to say it, however, for fear they would embarrass Nora.

Johnson, however, was more than happy to blow things up. He immediately said, “Q probably has one, only Nora doesn’t know his account, does she? That’s why she says she doesn’t have one. Here I was, thinking you were really familiar with Q. Did you have to ask for your older brother’s approval first when you asked Q for help?”

His words were brimming with mockery.

Everyone else immediately fell silent, not daring to speak any further.

They all looked at Nora, hoping she wouldn’t get angry.

Nora, however, narrowed her eyes. “Still, I have the means to contact Q, do you?”.

Johnson: “?”

She had nothing to say to that!

Just when everyone didn’t know what to say, someone suddenly ran up and said, “This is terrible! Someone has hacked into our network again.”

The moment he said that, Damon and another member of the IT department rushed over to the IT department.

Nora thought about it for a while and followed them as well.

On the way, Ruth commented worriedly, “Surely Q didn’t leave a gap when he was fixing the bug, did he? Otherwise, why would we have been hacked?”.

The two entered the IT department just as she said that.

All the computer screens in the IT department had gone black. Damon was typing on the keyboard, but the screen was completely black with nothing on it.

“What’s going on? The other party is computer savvy, we’re not rivals at all!”

“How did they hack the system? This is just too weird.”

“Our firewall has always been very strong, so ordinary hackers can’t get in at all. Q was the one who hacked the system to fix the bug last night. Other than Q, there is virtually no one else who can hack into the system…” While a few people were complaining under their breath, a chat box suddenly appeared on the computer. Then, a row of words appeared:

“Hello everyone. Don’t worry, I’m Y.”
