The bodyguards moved at once, restraining Elijah and Maya and forcing them down to their knees.

He muttered in disbelief, "The plan was foolproof. Where did it go wrong?"

  • Rebirth: No More Cleaning up Your Mess   Chapter 10

    The bodyguards moved at once, restraining Elijah and Maya and forcing them down to their knees.He muttered in disbelief, "The plan was foolproof. Where did it go wrong?"I scoffed. "You gave yourself away from the very beginning—that pirated software. I know exactly how advanced the security system I built is. There's no way some cheap knockoff you casually bought online could break through it."If that were possible, top-tier hackers would be everywhere. From the start, your real goal was to destroy Harry's sperm. You thought that would land you the Quinlan family's fortune, but you were nothing more than a pawn in their feud."Only then did Elijah and Maya realize that they were just tools in someone else's hands.Shaken to the core, she trembled uncontrollably and looked at me with false helplessness. "Theo, I was wrong. I was fooled by his sweet words, too. Please, forgive me just this once!"I tore through her pretense without hesitation. "You're not sorry because you were

    My heart skipped a beat. Without hesitation, I nodded. "I'll do everything I can to fend off the hackers. I hope you'll keep your word, Mr. Quinlan."I strode to the computer and sat down. Out of the corner of my eye, I caught Harry gently holding a pregnant woman in his arms. Could that be Elijah's sister? Why didn't they look alike… at all?The thought flashed through my mind briefly before I focused entirely on defending against the hackers. The digital battle raged for a full day and night. Alongside other top experts, I finally held off the attack.The hackers retreated in frustration, leaving only the damaged systems that required repair. Suddenly, alarms blared through the building, and loud bangs echoed.Before I could even react, smoke and flash grenades were thrown inside. I was forced to close my eyes, and a sharp pain hit the back of my head.When I woke up, I found myself on a cargo ship.…I slowly sat up and surveyed my surroundings, only to see Harry lying not fa

    "My sister is carrying Mr. Quinlan's child. That makes me his brother-in-law now," Elijah said.I gave a sarcastic smile. "Once a moocher, always a moocher. What else can you do aside from relying on women? You'll be a loser your whole life, Elijah."Stung by my words, he kicked me in anger. "Shut up! At least I'm better than you now!"Maya looked at him with concern, affection oozing in her eyes. "Why bother with a scoundrel like him? You're wasting your energy."Elijah sneered. "Hey, Theo. I've made sure no company will hire you from now on. Let's see how you'll cover your dad's sky-high fees. Maybe by tomorrow, he'll get kicked out…"I glared at him, teeth clenched. "What do you want, Elijah?"He smiled with malice. "Nothing much. I just need a personal servant. Serve me well, and I might let you off."I took a deep breath, swallowing my pride. "As long as my dad is safe, I'll do whatever you want."He laughed at my humiliation. "I've never liked that high-and-mighty attitud

    "And when something minor like this happens, you abandon me without a second thought," Maya accused me. "Is that what love is to you?"Listening to her twisted version of the story, I felt utterly stunned. How did she even have the nerve to say something like that?I looked at her cold, flustered eyes and finally understood. Maya was a woman selfish to the core, someone who loved no one but herself.Once that realization settled in, I felt calmer, though I couldn't resist jabbing back at her."Something minor? You mean threatening me with my dad? Forcing me to take the blame? Or crippling me and shoving me in that cabinet? Did all of that count as nothing to you? How shameless do you have to be to say something like that?"She flew into a rage, embarrassed and furious. "What's the point of digging up the past now? And besides, you weren't really hurt, were you? You're a grown man. Why are you being so petty?"I snickered. "Yeah, I'm petty. Yeah, I'm digging up events that happene

    "But the root cause was when Mr. Cook recklessly installed pirated software, which left the system wide open to attack. And the reason he dared to act so boldly was that Ms. Griffin here blindly protected him from everything."Hence, the ones who should bear the consequences are they."Maya and Elijah paled instantly. He muttered weakly, trying to defend himself. "No, I was just trying to help… I didn't mean for this to happen…"The others could no longer hold back. Accusations spilled one after another."Mr. Quinlan, this idiot is the one who broke the system. Mr. Jameson already fixed it, but this woman tore down his security system to give that idiot credit. They thought there wouldn't be any more Trojan attacks, but they never stopped to think about one thing."The samples stored here belong to the rich and powerful. Plenty of people would love to destroy it. The moment the defenses were gone, hackers seized the chance, broke in, and issued false commands!"Harry curled his l

    Meanwhile, Wallace finally came to. He stared blankly at the screen, at the vials exploding one after another, and his body gave out. "Everything… is ruined."Rage burned in his eyes. He charged toward Elijah, who was hiding in the corner, trying to make himself invisible."You walking disaster! You're a godforsaken idiot! Why would you install pirated software that you bought online? Were you really that short on money? Look at the mess you made! Every single sample is destroyed! What are you going to use to pay for it?"His voice cracked with hysterical despair.Elijah trembled from head to toe, crying so hard his face was covered in tears and mucus. "I'm sorry. I really meant well at first. I didn't know it'd turn out like this."He had delicate features, so crying like this almost made him look fragile and pitiful. Maya hurried over, her face full of concern. She forced herself to speak calmly."I know you meant well. I promise you'll be fine. Theo has already signed the liab
