The final came as planned.

There were still 30 minutes before the competition. In the lounge of Janet’s team, Melissa and the
others were discussing the team on Nathaniel’s side.
Janet sat quietly on the side, watching the video of the game of Nathaniel’s team on the iPad. After a Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
long time, she looked at Ruby.
Ruby’s face was still a little pale, and she held her stomach silently.
Noticing Janet’s gaze, Ruby raised her head and met Janet’s gaze in a daze.
“Ms. Longfellow… What’s wrong?”
Janet shook her head and asked with concern, “Are you feeling better today?”
Ruby’s heart trembled. She wanted to say that she wasn’t feeling good and that she might not be able
to play in the game today, but she felt embarrassed.
She was paid and even got a bonus this time going abroad for the competition. But in the end, she had
her boss go to the arena as her substitute. She really felt ashamed.
Ruby gritted her teeth and said, “I can do it!”
“Tsk! No! Don’t you do that! Have a good rest. We don’t need you to risk your health!” Melissa
immediately interrupted Ruby.
Then Melissa rolled her eyes and looked at Janet. She smiled, “Janet, you might still have to play
instead of Ruby today. Thank you!”
Janet could not help but laugh.
She had asked Ruby about that because she wanted to see if she could participate in the game on her
own. If Ruby wanted to do it herself and her condition allowed her to, then there was no reason for her
opportunity to get taken away.
Although Janet didn’t want to have anything to do with Nathaniel anymore, she had been interested in
this competition since Nathaniel had declared that he would cooperate with Xipil.
She was really curious about how Nathaniel, who was arrogant, would feel if he was defeated by her.
Janet put away her thoughts and couldn’t help but glance at Melissa again.
Melissa winked at her with a cute but cunning smile.
Janet curled her lips slightly and did not speak.
Ruby wasn’t clever enough to understand what was going on between Janet and Melissa. However,
after being interrupted by Melissa, Ruby gathered her courage and said with a bitter face, “Ms.
Longfellow, I am
really sorry. I am afraid that I will not be able to participate in today’s competition… I may have to
trouble you again.”

Ruby was going to cry. “I should return the bonus and salary for this trip to the company when we go
back. I
don’t deserve it.”
Janet held her forehead helplessly.
She thought it was only a small deal. If Ruby was sick, then she would participate in the competition.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have made herself the substitute player in the first place.
But she didn’t expect that it would scare Ruby so much.
Janet patted Ruby on the shoulder and said, “Alright, don’t be sad! No one wants this to happen.
Besides, you are in your period. I already said that you don’t have to apologize for this. You don’t have
to feel guilty. I’ll participate in the competition today.”
After a pause, Janet raised her eyebrows and looked at the others calmly with confidence. She raised
her voice and asked, “Are you guys confident?”
“Yes!”
The team members spoke in unison, and their morale soared.
Janet’s performance yesterday left the audience and the competition committee members in awe. At
the same time, her team members also had a new impression of Janet.
With Janet on the stage, their chances of winning today were very high!
“The final of the Hacking Competition in Canada is officially kicking off right now. Welcome the two
winning
teams in the semi-final!”
Amidst the earth-shattering cheers, Janet led her team and walked firmly to the arena.
Sitting in her seat, Janet looked at the rocker camera in front of her, her expression indifferent.
The competition officially began.
The content of the final was the attack and defense game.
Very few people knew that Janet happened to be very good at this kind of game. Back then, she had
left.
many legendary stories in the attack and defense games as Xipil.
Now, she sat there calmly as Janet and did not make a move for a long time.
“Ms. Longfellow seems to be thinking about something and has not made a move yet” The voice of the
commentator sounded and the audience below began to boo.
In fact, after the competition yesterday, it had been rumored that Janet’s team was sent into the final
by
Nigel.
No matter if it was the truth or not, people tend to assume out of their ill nature that Janet had taken
advantage of her gorgeous face.
Nathaniel’s team members were also excited, sitting on the chairs, ready for the game.
“I think we are gonna break the record this time!”
“Right! I don’t even know where that team comes from! Bunch of suckers!”
“Thank Nigel for sending them here today. The game’s easy peasy now! Hahahaha…”
In the lounge, Nathaniel was watching the game. His dark eyes were fixed on the screen, or rather,
Janet on the screen, and his eyes were filled with an unspeakable gloom.
Alfred stood to the side, feeling conflicted. He wanted to say “congratulations” but he wasn’t sure if he
should
say that now.
However, looking at Mr. Webster’s expression, he decided he’d better keep silent.
Nathaniel’s team marched into the Local Area Network of Janet’s team with irresistible force.
The gap between their scores was getting bigger, and the booing from the audience became louder.
The original silent hall became busy.
In the arena, the commentators were nervous at first, but then they started to sigh..
The female commentator sighed, “Now we can see that the 3 players of the Longfellow Group are
struggling
to defend, and the 4 players of the Webster Group are about to attack the opponent’s hinterland.
That’s
close.”
The male commentator laughed, “I have no idea what Ms. Longfellow is doing. I can’t even see her ID
now. I
heard that Ms. Longfellow is the boss of the company behind the team. Her debut yesterday made her
famous, but her performance today is barely satisfactory!”
“You are right, now the game has turned white-hot. The Longfellow Group’s core of their LAN is under
attack,
and they can’t fight back at all.”
