A few minutes later, Vanessa received a reply, ‘Done.”
Upon seeing this, a smile involuntarily appeared on her face, and she glanced in Maggie’s direction with a hint of schadenfreude.
She was eager to witness Maggie’s expression when she realized her computer was empty on stage.
It was definitely something to anticipate!
Meanwhile, Maggie’s phone suddenly vibrated, and she saw it was a message from her cousin Lucas.
“Maggie, your computer has been hacked, the message read.
Maggie furrowed her brow, took note of the time, and then discreetly left the classroom through the back exit to call Lucas directly.
After Sierra had spilled water on her previous computer, rendering it useless, Lucas had assembled and customized a new one for her. It had been sent over from overseas and proved to be efficient.
“What’s the situation? Get straight to the point, Maggie said as soon as the call connected.
“I had installed a firewall and anti–hacking system on your computer previously. The alarm is linked to my phone, so I was alerted when it was breached,” Lucas explained in a concise manner.
Although his voice sounded sleepy, he swiftly investigated the issue upon receiving the alert.
He was sleeping soundly when his phone rang. It woke him up, but not without a big yawn. Then he quickly checked the situation.
“Several design drafts were deleted from your computer, but I managed to recover them for you,” Lucas informed her.
Lucas leaned on his chair, typing away on his keyboard. And a few moments later, his work was done.
“Can you identify the culprit?” Maggie inquired.
“I traced the IP address to a nearby café by your school. The individual appears to be quite skilled. I am currently hacking into their system,” Lucas replied casually, yet his actions were precise.
“Keep me updated if you find anything,” Maggie instructed before ending the call.
Meanwhile, Lucas poured himself a glass of cold water and took a few sips to refresh his mind.
The young man, with a hint of innocence in his features, stretched his arms before returning to his computer desk, saying nonchalantly, “Let’s see who you are.”
In no time, Lucas successfully accessed the person’s webcam
He observed a middle–aged man with thick black–framed glasses, a checkered shirt, and a scruffy beard, looking smug and self– satisfied.
Intrigued, Lucas leaned in closer to get a clearer view.
Chapter 91 Missing Him
Who’s this zany guy?
Does Maggie know a guy like this?
Using facial recognition software, Lucas swiftly identified the man and hacked into his phone to discover at text message from Vanessa.
Oh, Vanessa.
The name rang a bell. Before he had left the country, Vanessa had visited the Camerons with Maggie a few times, and he had crossed paths with her as well.
You can never know a person’s true colors. And to think Maggie’s been nice to her.
Lucas promptly shared the information with Maggie, who, upon seeing Vanessa’s name, had a steely look in her eyes.
I knew it.
She just won’t learn her lesson.
Shortly after, Lucas messaged again, “Watch how I handle her.
Upon reading this, Maggie did not intervene. Sometimes, individuals needed to face consequences to learn their lesson. If the previous incident had not been enough, Vanessa needed to experience the repercussions of her actions once more.
Maggie pocketed her phone without further inquiry..
The school administrators had delivered their statements and words of encouragement, followed by
ches and guidance from department leaders and mentors. Thus, the first phase of the graduation. design competition had officially commenced.
As Maggie gazed towards the platform, she caught sight of a familiar figure.
However, due to the size of the classroom, lighting, and angle, she couldn’t discern the identity clearly.
Even so, that figure still left her feeling a little dazed.
Is it really him…
How could he possibly be here?
Maggie didn’t believe she was mistaken, but in her previous life, he hadn’t attended this graduation defense.
But then again, in her previous life, Vanessa never asked a hacker to delete her manuscript from her computer, let alone Nathael showing up.
Maggie stared at his back, lost in thought, silently counting the days in her mind.
It appears that today marks exactly half a month.
For the past two weeks, they hadn’t exchanged any messages, made any phone calls, or spoken a word to each other, with no interaction at all
Chapter 91 Missing Him
Maggie couldn’t help but wonder if he was angry.
She was harsh with Ronald that day.
Yes, being angry would be understandable.
Maggie looked away and thought it was nice to slow down a bit, giving herself the chance and time to really get to know him.
However, in her past life, they often went two or three months without seeing each other, and she didn’t think much of it.
Why now, she couldn’t help but to miss him a little.
After a moment of wandering thoughts, when two classmates finished their presentations and the teachers. and staff started asking questions, Maggie forced herself to focus, listening carefully to the teacher’s questions and comments.
Before long, it was Maggie’s turn.
When Vanessa saw her take the stage, the smile on her face deepened, and there was a hint of excitement in her eyes.
As Maggie took the stage, she inevitably locked eyes with those deep eyes.
Nathael remained unchanged, his cold gaze fixed on her as if she were just a stranger, responsible for explaining the design project, while he represented the company for evaluation.”
There was no connection, and it seemed like there shouldn’t be any connection.
Maggie naturally averted her gaze, looking at the leaders, teachers, designers, and entrepreneurs in the
ence one by one, then spoke gently, “I am Maggie from the School of Architecture. The topic I have
ne is how to integrate Baroque style with modern art.” ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
With that, she opened her computer and found her thesis and design drafts.
At the moment of her movement, Vanessa’s heart also raced rapidly, excited to the extreme, and she couldn’t help but feel a little nervous.
“I wonder what direction Maggie will take this time, someone whispered beside her.
“I think this topic is really difficult. It seems like very few people like the Baroque style now. It’s too irregular and overly luxurious.”
Vanessa said softly. “Maggie has always been creative, I’m sure this design proposal will also be eye- catching.”
A few people responded, but Vanessa didn’t speak again. The low murmurs behind her also stopped after a
few sentences.
In the next moment, Vanessa saw Maggie skillfully open the document. A complete and beautiful thesis appeared on the big screen, with over thirty pages. From the first few pages displayed in front of everyone, there seemed to be no issues.
Vanessa’s face changed in an instant, her heart sinking. She was furious.
