When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1372 She Is Despicable For Using The Children

Despite his mother's words, Jonathan was still filled with self-reproach, for he had failed to protect his younger brother.

The group could only wait outside the operating room, deeply worried that something might happen to Elliot.

At this moment, the Jamieson residence was in an uproar.

Queenie quickly realized that her study had been tampered with; all her files had vanished into thin air.

"What happened?"

The secretary gazed at the office that was in complete disarray, her face etched with confusion. "How did this happen? Could it have been those two kids?"

In her heart, Queenie was certain of it.

She went to check the computer first since it contained many important files and documents.

Thankfully, the laptop seems to be undamaged. Those two was just children after all, only knowing how to wreck havoc on documents and have no idea on how to ruin a computer. When Queenie was feeling relieved, she turned on her computer.

The system was usually quick to start up, but this time, the display took an unusually long time to appear.

The image on the screen was far from ordinary. Soon, an edited, black and white photo of Queenie appeared on the display.

The message scrawled on it read: Drop dead!

Queenie's brow instantly furrowed.

The secretary also caught sight of the black and white photo and couldn't help but express her annoyance. "That darn brat!"

"That kid looked to be around four or five years old. There's no way he is capable of doing this, right?" As Queenie spoke, she check through her files.

While doing so, she discovered that all the files and documents on her computer had turned into black and white photos of herself.

Upon witnessing the situation, Queenie was struck by a dizzy spell.

"Quick, get me an IT specialist."

"Right away."

With that, the secretary hastily left.

Cassandra and Stella were outside. Upon hearing the commotion within, they couldn't help but to enter. "Mom, what happened?"

"The computer has been hacked. All of the company's confidential files are gone," Queenie lamented.

"How could this happen?" Stella stepped forward. "Mom, do you want me to take a look? I learned some IT stuff back in college." While speaking, Stella reached out for the computer.

Queenie, however, promptly slapped her hand aside. "Forget it."

Stella's hand stiffened mid-air, still throbbing from the slight pain. She couldn't help but feel surprised, unable to comprehend why Queenie had treated her with such hostility.

Regaining her composure, Queenie felt compelled to explain, "Why don't you all get some rest? I'm feeling a bit unwell, and my mood isn't great. After all, so many confidential documents have just vanished into thin air."

"Was it those two little rascals who did it?" Cassandra asked.

Queenie shook her head. "I don't

think so. All my files are password protected to prevent unauthorized access and theft... They're just kids and couldn't

possibly have deleted themel

"This might have been orchestrated by Cecilia. She sent her two kids over just to throw us off," Stella chimed in.

Queenie observed their back-and-forth conversation, noting their lack of intention to leave. Left with no other choice, she had to make her stance explicit. "Both of you, return to your rooms. I need some peace and quiet."

"Alright then," Cassandra said, with an air of nonchalance.

"Don't let yourself get all worked up, Mom," Stella gently advised.

Despite hearing the ingratiating words, Queenie felt no comfort. Instead, she saw Stella as deeply manipulative. "Mmm-hmm," she responded.

Only then did the two of them depart.

As soon as they left, the secretary, following Queenie's instructions, had someone tail them.

Before this, the secretary had discreetly placed a listening device in Stella's room.

"Mdm. Queenie, everything is all set. I'm sure Stella will surely reveal something when she thinks we aren't looking," said the secretary.

"Right."

Queenie gave a nod, her hand resting on her forehead as she pondered.

Who could have possibly hacked into my computer? Could it really have been Cecilia? I can't believe how despicable she is, using those two children to her advantage!NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
