Alfredo looked at the disconnected call and smiled helplessly. Wen Xin’s temper had always been like this. Even when she needed his help, she wouldn’t soften her attitude.
He dialed the office intercom, and soon a bald man walked into his office.
“Chairman, what can I do for you?”
“Go to the airport and intercept the Elders Council’s private jet. There’s a Chinese person on board. Bring him to the hotel and ensure his safety. If the Elders Council causes trouble, tell them to co to .”
Alfredo raised his hand and rubbed his aching temples. He felt that this matter was extrely troubleso.
He didn’t need to think too hard to know that this would definitely offend the Elders Council, and he probably wouldn’t gain any favor with Wen Xin either. It was quite a difficult position for him.
The bald man looked at Alfredo’s troubled expression and hesitated before asking, “Chairman, is that Chinese person the one the Shadow Alliance brought back?”
“Yes, he’s the one the Elders Council had the Shadow Alliance retrieve. Why? Do you know about this?”
Alfredo was sowhat surprised that the bald man knew about this. He glanced at him, scrutinizing him as if trying to determine if he had any connections with the Shadow Alliance.
“I don’t know much. I just heard the young master of the Jason family ntion it. He said that the Jason elders have control over the Shadow Alliance and that there’s nothing the Shadow Alliance can’t accomplish.”
“Alright, just knowing is enough. There’s no need to say more. Go and bring that Chinese person back. I’ll handle the rest.”
Alfredo felt his head was about to explode. He had been trying to conceal the relationship between the Shadow Alliance and the Independent State, but there were always reckless fools who didn’t understand the consequences of exposure…
“Understood, I’ll take care of it imdiately.” The bald man saw Alfredo’s sowhat grim expression and didn’t dare to ask more. He turned and left imdiately.
An hour and a half later, the elders of the Jason family stord into Alfredo’s office, bringing the rest of the Elders Council with them.
“Alfredo, what do you an by this? You haven’t dealt with the Independent State’s network security issues, and now you’ve taken soone we brought back. What are you trying to do?”
“Yes, do you know how much damage these cyber-attacks have caused us? You sit back and do nothing, and now you even obstruct us. What are you thinking?”
“Alfredo, if you can’t manage this position, then get out.”
The elders berated Alfredo one after another. They couldn’t remain calm after hearing that Alfredo’s n had taken the person they had captured.
“I’ve already arranged for the Doll of Truth Listener to resolve the network security issue. You can’t touch that Country X person.”
Alfredo kept his head down, unwilling to et their eyes. He felt he couldn’t reason with them.
“The Doll? Are you joking? If you could get the Doll, we wouldn’t be in this ss. Alfredo, don’t think we can’t remove you just because of your current position!”
The Jason family had suffered the most. After the mysterious bombing, they had incurred severe losses. Following the termination of the network security partnership with Continent M, hackers seed to specifically target the Jason family. They couldn’t understand who they had offended.
“Whether you believe or not, you have no choice but to believe . In three days, the Doll will deliver an independent network security system for the Independent State. Even that Chinese person couldn’t accomplish this.”
“You’d better believe !”
Alfredo was tired. He couldn’t explain much and couldn’t reveal Wen Xin’s involvent. He could only be vague.
“Three days? Alfredo, how can we believe you? It’s been a long ti since the network security cooperation with Continent M was terminated, and you’ve been unable to resolve it. Now you tell us it will be done in three days? Do you realize how ridiculous you sound?”
Alfredo’s promise made the elders laugh. They couldn’t believe Alfredo’s words. It seed too impossible.
“You have no other option but to trust !” Alfredo suddenly lifted his head, his gaze firm as he looked at the elders standing before his desk.
“If, in three days, the Doll hasn’t provided a complete security system for the Independent State, I’ll hand over that Country Z person to you. This way, you won’t lose anything.”
Alfredo found these people too troubleso. He was glad he acted quickly and rescued Wen Xin’s friend before they did anything.
The thought of an accident crossed Alfredo’s mind, wondering if Wen Xin would return to the Independent State out of anger if sothing happened to her friend.
He quickly dismissed this dangerous thought, realizing that if her friend was in danger, Wen Xin might retaliate by throwing more bombs…
This girl’s personality was too wild and uncontrollable…
He quickly squashed the idea, knowing he couldn’t afford to provoke Wen Xin. She was too dangerous.
The elders exchanged glances, realizing they needed to discuss the matter. They couldn’t believe things would go so smoothly.
“If you can really get the Doll, we’ll trust you this ti. But if you deceive us, you won’t keep your position.”
The head elder spoke on behalf of the Elders Council after careful consideration.
The Doll’s reputation was too persuasive. Any organization in the world that could get a security system from the Doll could rest easy—no one had ever breached her firewall.
“In that case, let’s et in three days. I hope you won’t disturb during this ti, nor the Country Z person.”
Alfredo expected the elders to compromise. No one could resist the Doll’s security system, just like he couldn’t.
Satisfied with the response, the elders left Alfredo’s office. Shortly after, the bald man hurried in, panting.
“What happened?” Alfredo stood up in surprise at the bald man’s anxious appearance, feeling a sense of foreboding.
