"Stop wasting your ti, Leo..." she spoke gently, but her gaze seed to want to whack Leo in the head. Why did he look slackened when she tried to settle this matter faster?
She continued her words before Leo could say anything. "Can you please prepare the docunt? I will not sleep peacefully knowing these fools continue to burn our company’s money."
Bella let out a soft sigh before she turned her gaze outside.
Leo chuckled when he saw her seeming impatient.
"Oh, co on, boss. Relax. It’s lunchti now. Do you want to go to Sushi Tei again?" Leo asked.
He was reluctant to visit that place, afraid they would et other shaless people again.
"Lunchti!?" Bella was surprised when she saw her watch; it was indeed past lunchti by a few minutes. "Gosh! Why does ti fly so fast? I feel like I just worked a few minutes ago," she glanced at Leo.
Leo was rendered speechless. He said nothing but only gave her a — Why are you asking ? — kind of look.
"Can you ask soone to prepare my lunch? I still have a lot of work."
"Alright, I will ask soone to prepare it," he said, quickly calling his secretary.
After he ended the call, he looked at Bella again, "Boss, about the docunt you asked for, you know why I can’t assign a random person to do that, right?"
Bella slightly nodded.
"Unfortunately, our Hacker seems busy today. So, we need a little bit of patience to ask him." He explained.
Leo wanted to call their Hacker directly but didn’t know his contact information—Jack, with whom he usually corresponded. Because this was a secret mission, he didn’t want to bother Jack by asking because Jack would be suspicious.
"Did you say this is for ?"
"Should I?"
Bella rolled her eyes, "No wonder he didn’t heed your request,"
She headed to the table, looking for her cell phone. After she found the number she needed to call, Bella returned to her seat.
"Y-You call him?" Leo was surprised. As far as he knew, only Jack knew that person’s location and phone number.
And, as Jack’s assistant for years, he never knew that person’s number. Whenever he needs that person to do so work, he submits the request through a unique website and gets a ticket to the queue.
This morning, he got to number five when submitting the request form. The system said the data he needed would be finished on five at noon.
However now,
Bella was casually calling that person, which shocked him.
Leo narrowed his eyes and looked at Bella, thrilled to know whether the connection was going through.
"Of course, I know. I’m the one who brings him into our company. You didn’t know?"
Leo was utterly speechless. He opened his mouth a few tis to say sothing, but no words left his lips.
He was shocked to know that their formidable Hacker had entered their company through Bella.
"I just don’t want to be involved with the company. So, I told him to communicate with Jack," Bella continued to explain after she saw Leo’s comical expression.
...
As soon as the line was connected, a man’s voice, speaking English with a Russian accent, greeted Bella from the other end.
"Wow! I almost died in shock when I saw your phone number appear on my cellphone. It’s been a while. Where have you been all this ti, sis Bella?"
Bella can’t help but laugh happily, hearing his greeting.
"Stefan, I am always here, in my country. Well, you sound great, Stefan... Your voice no longer sounded like a teenager."
"Of course, I’m a grown person now. It’s been ten years since we first t, rember!?" Stefan asked while trying to rember the exact years they first t.
"I know. Forgive my ignorance. In my mory, I rember you were a very active and brilliant teenage boy, Stefan..." Bella starts to rember how they t for the first ti.
At that ti, he was still 17 years old. She had also just established a company with Jack. They needed computer experts to help them, and sohow, this kid appeared before her, offering himself to help them.
Looking at his sincerity and capability, Bella imdiately accepted his offer.
She never doubted Stefan’s abilities, so she imdiately agreed to use his talent and hire him as their prominent Hacker.
A year later, after they t, Bella found out that no client wanted to use Stefan’s talent at that ti. Because of his age, it is difficult to get a job, and they doubt his ability—no wonder Stefan accepts her offer even though they can’t afford to pay him more than his market price.
Since then, Stefan has beco their exclusive Hacker. He has also significantly contributed to the success of the RDF Group and all its businesses worldwide.
Bella heard from Jack that Stefan has a share in their company, but his involvent was discreet.
"I heard from Jack that you have beco a mother now?" Stefan was excited to hear he would visit her again. And now he gets to see not only Bella but also her son.
"Yeah, I have a son. And I also reside in Fort City. Co to visit , Stefan, and et my son. Well, my son has the talent to use his computer, too."
"Really? Alright, I will stop there." Stefan’s voice sounded excited; he needed to visit a warr place. He can’t stand it, the coldest in his village.
"Okay, that sounds terrific."
"Bella... Why did you suddenly call after so many years!?" Stefan asked.
She imdiately told him about the needed data and how Leo submitted it to his website.
"I don’t understand the details. Maybe Leo could explain them to you further..." Bella imdiately gave Leo her cell phone so they could talk directly to Stefan.
After a few minutes,
Leo finally finished talking to Stefan about what docunt they needed.
"I see. Okay, I will work it out now." But before Stefan ends his conversation with Leo, he still wants to talk to Bella. "Can you return the phone to Bella?"
Bella and Stefan chatted again for another minute. Before long, they finally ended the call, with Stefan promising to visit her soon.
