Chapter 2942

Lawrence was leisurely sipping his coffee, his attention occasionally drifting back to the

computer screen. The room echoed with the rhythmic tapping of keyboards as the hackers

intensely focused on their task.

Ian, with a hint of anxiety in his voice, broke the silence. "Mr. Royce, why is this taking so

long?" He couldn't help but wonder, 'Is this another dead end? Why does it feel like we’re

moving at a snail's pace?'

"Just hang in there a bit longer," Lawrence replied, a trace of impatience creeping into his

tone.

Internally, Lawrence was growing anxious too. 'Why no progress yet? We've got everything

we need,' he thought, puzzled.

Suddenly, a hacker let out a confused grunt.

"What's the issue?" Lawrence asked sharply, his gaze sweeping across the room.

One hacker, looking totally bewildered, said, "It's like the program has been hacked, yet it

hasn't. I've never seen anything like this."

Ian, perplexed, asked, "What does that even mean? It's either hacked or it's not. What's

with this uncertainty?"

"We did everything by the book, following Mr. Royce's data and pattern. But there's no

response, and it's not freezing

either. It's just... bizarre," the hacker tried to explain.

"So, no reaction at all?" Ian responded, frustration mounting. "Looks like we've hit a dead

end again!"

"If it had failed, it should've frozen, but that hasn't happened, " the hackers were equally

baffled.

Ian urged them, "Then keep digging. Where did we go wrong? rv

The hackers resumed their work, only to report back, disappointed, "Still no luck."

Ian murmured to himself, "What's going wrong here?"

A hacker, shaking his head, said, "In all my years, I've never encountered something like

this."

Ian, looking increasingly worried, turned to Lawrence. "Mr. Royce, do you think there's a

problem somewhere else?"

Lawrence, understanding Ian's implication about Nolan and Nicole, replied with a shake of

his head, "I don't think so." He hadn't noticed anything unusual, and Nolan had already

finished the game. If there were any issues, they wouldn’t have cleared it.

Ian was visibly troubled as he mused, "But where exactly did it go wrong?"

Considering that Nolan wasn't the issue, the hackers aiding them shouldn't have faced any

problems either.

Suddenly, Ian lowered his voice, "Could there be someone else involved...?"

Lawrence had a hunch they might be targeted by an unknown adversary. The name

Scorpio flashed in his mind.

But does Scorpio really have that kind of ability?' Lawrence silently questioned himself.

After a bit of thinking, he dismissed the idea, "It shouldn't be Scorpio." He knew if Scorpio

had the capability, they wouldn’t have sought his help with the Water Crest. Scorpio still

needed him.

"What's really going on here?" Ian was thoroughly perplexed.

Lawrence, deep in thought and staring at the computer screen, abruptly ordered, "Exit the

program, now!"

The hackers, confused but obedient, quickly followed the command.

Ian, in a concerned whisper, asked, "Mr. Royce, what's wrong?" He tried to figure out the

problem. 'Which part went wrong?'

Lawrence, still focused on the screen, suddenly burst into a bitter laugh, "Hahaha... well

played, Nicole!"

He had thought his plan was flawless, but it seemed Nicole had outsmarted him.

Ian was completely clueless, "What does this have to do with Nicole?"
