Chapter 3269
"Oh, I'll check it out." Lulu agreed and turned to leave.
After a while, Lulu returned with a complex expression, saying, "Sean said everything is normal. Could there be a problem somewhere?"
Nicole's eyes narrowed slightly. 'There's nothing unusual?' "Ms. Riddle." Patricia entered and, seeing the concerned expressions on Nicole and Lulu, couldn't help but speak cautiously, "What happened?" "Oh, it's just that everything seems normal with the company recently, but Nolan mentioned..." Lulu frowned, "We were wondering if there might be a problem somewhere?"
Patricia's gaze darkened at Lulu's words. She turned to Nicole, "Ms. Riddle, could it be Lawrence?"
Although she had no evidence and it was merely a guess, now, anything related to Nicole made her think of Lawrence first.
"What do you mean?" Lulu was a bit confused. How could Riddle Corporation's matters be related to Lawrence?
"Check it out." Nicole instructed Patricia with a slight frown.
"Yes." Patricia acknowledged and left.
Lulu looked bewilderingly at Nicole. "What's actually going on?" "It might be that someone has tampered with our company's office system.
" Nicole explained.
"How is that possible? Could someone have breached the firewall you set up?" Lulu expressed her disbelief.
"The firewalls are there for some crucial confidential files, but some departments have their own local networks for convenience. It's possible someone exploited this to gain access," Nicole spoke gravely.
It was also because of this that Lawrence might find an opportunity, and they might not notice it in time.
"Oh, so Nolan's program was in the local networks too. I thought Nolan was so good he got past your firewall, or maybe you helped him."
Lulu then had a moment of realization, her expression growing more serious.
She added, "If it really is Lawrence, what is he trying to do? After all, those aren't exactly secret projects, are they?"
Even if he learned some details about the various departments' work or even their secrets, it shouldn't be enough to deal a fatal blow to Riddle Corporation.
But then, what would be the point of Lawrence doing this? Why would he bother?
Nicole's eyes darkened slightly as she said, "Let's wait for Patricia to get back." She thought that all these were just speculations at this point, so they needed to wait for Patricia to return with the investigation results.
"Hmm." Lulu sighed, her voice tinged with gloom.
It felt like a long wait before Patricia finally returned.
"Ms. Riddle, I found something." Patricia placed a document in front of Nicole, saying, "These are the real IP addresses of those dummy data, and they all indeed trace back to Lawrence." "What's he doing
creating all that fake data?" Lulu muttered in frustration.
"It's not entirely fake. While it is dummy data, they could still extract some information about our company from it. I think he might be preparing to make a move against Riddle Corporation," Patricia explained. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
Nicole's voice carried a hint of chill as she said, "It seems likely." "Moreover, we discovered that if it weren't for the sudden stock price issue at Lawrence's end, our company would have been in trouble in no more than a couple of days," Patricia added with a grave expression.
Lulu couldn't help but gasp in shock, relieved that if it hadn't been for the actions taken by the Johnston Group first, Riddle Corporation would be in jeopardy now.
Nicole bit her lip slightly, her eyes deepening as she said, "Let's not spread word of this just yet." "Do you have a plan?" Lulu looked at Nicole, her voice cautious and probing.
"At this moment, Lawrence is facing a crisis, and he will definitely look for ways to resolve it. If he had set this up beforehand, he would now be even more reliant on it. We can turn his plan against him," Nicole said meaningfully.
