Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love

Mr. White scowled and barked, “What the hell? I’m in a meeting with Mr. Leen. Butt out and leave!”

The man hesitated somewhat, “But…”

“No buts! Moron!” Mr. White waved his hand dismissively, “Now, right this second, out you go.”

Timothy chuckled, “Why the rush, Mr. White? Why not listen to him and see what’s happening?”

Seeing Timothy speaking up, Mr. White reluctantly said, “Three minutes for you, go ahead.”

“Mr. White, it won’t take three minutes,” the man said cautiously, “Just a few words will do.”

“Speak!” Mr. White commanded with an authoritative demeanor.

The man took a deep breath and said, “Storm Group just dropped a new chip aimed at the security market. It outperforms our top chip across the board. But here’s the kicker. They’re claiming to have found a backdoor in our chips. They’re suggesting we’ve been using it to gather info for years.”

After saying everything in one breath, the man exhaled, “That’s all!“.

Mr. White’s expression was initially very calm.

But the more he heard, the grimmer his expression became.

By the end, his face had gone green.

Timothy glanced at Mr. White’s complexion and could quite understand his current mood.

Mr. White’s real name was Harrison White.

He was a core member of a certain organization.

Even more so, he was the president of a multinational conglomerate, Stellar Group.

Emergency calls only

Stellar Group was a leading global financial powerhouse, specializing in security chips.

In this arena, they were unmatched, leaving their competitors in the dust.

Due to their chips‘ tight algorithms and superior secrecy, many collectives or individuals requiring high confidentiality used Stellar Group’s chips.

This was also the biggest asset for the Stellar Group’s stable position among the global top ten.

But now…

Storm Group had actually developed a better security chip.

This was not yet a catastrophe.

After all, Storm Group’s chip might have been developed, but it hadn’t been put through its paces in the market yet. Its future performance was still anybody’s guess..

What was truly fatal was the discovery of the covert backdoor Stellar Group had installed in their chips.

If a security chip wasn’t secure anymore, then who’s going to buy it?

The lifeline of Stellar Group was severed.

“How could the backdoor we set up be so easily discovered,” Harrison thundered furiously, “Moreover, in just these few short days!”

The man gave a bitter laugh, “Mr. White, who can compete when they’ve got a King on their side? Rumor has it that he’s the brain behind the development too.”

“King!” Harrison’s face twisted in anger, “It’s that person again.”

In recent years, no one knew just how many projects the King had in the works. Time and again, he’s at the cutting edge of global technology.

He’d heard his fair share of gripes about this guy from his colleagues, but since King had never dipped his toes into the security game, he hadn’t really given it much thought.

But what about now?

When King made a move, it was always such a big one!

“Just get out of here,” Harrison said irritably, waving his hand.

The man hurriedly left.

Timothy smiled and said lightly, “This is what I was talking about, Ben’s counterattack.”

Harrison paused, “Isn’t this developed by King?”

Timothy quirked an eyebrow, “King’s got a 60% grip on Storm Group’s core tech. If King jumps ship, Storm Group would fall apart overnight.”

Harrison nodded, “That’s why everyone has been searching for King over the years.”

“But have you ever thought that Ben might be King?” Timothy said in the most nonchalant tone, a

statement that was explosive.

Harrison was stunned for a long time before he instinctively denied it, “That’s impossible. I’ve never” heard anyone say that Ben is also proficient in computers.”

Timothy shrugged, “Then why is the timing of King’s development of security software so precise? He was targeting you from the beginning.”

Harrison narrowed his eyes.

Harrison had set this trap, always believing that if Ben wanted to break it, he would have to try hard to find evidence to prove his innocence.

But the evidence had been cleanly destroyed by him, Ben couldn’t possibly break the situation.

Thus, he would have to live with the stigma of being a murderer for life.

But Ben had taken a different path.

Emergency calls only

Ben must have discovered that he had previously lent money to Jane and then got someone to chase. up the debt.

The police had also found this out and even questioned him about it.

But Harrison believed he had covered his tracks well, and no one could trace it back to him.

Sure enough, after investigating him for a few days, the police found nothing and had to give up reluctantly.

Only Ben, for some reason, directly suspected him.

If it was just suspicion, Harrison wasn’t afraid.

After all, Ben couldn’t produce any evidence.

But Ben’s decision was to pull the rug out from under them, attacking Stellar Group and its pillar

industries.

Stellar Group had stood for decades and wasn’t so easy to take down. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

If Ben was King, it meant he had eclipsed their group’s decades of tech research in just a matter of days.

Wasn’t he going too far?

Timothy let out a sigh, “Mr. White, now, the tables have turned,

huh.”

Harrison was gritting his teeth, about to say something when his phone started ringing.

Harrison quickly picked up the phone, “Hello, Mr. Scott. What’s that? Are you thinking of canceling your order? Okay, just hear me out, please. Everything you’re reading online, it’s all just slander, we…”

The call was abruptly hung up.

Before Harrison could even get angry, his phone rang one after another. Without exception, all the calls were angrily demanding order cancellations.

Emergency calls only=

Quite a few even directly stated they intended to sue Harrison.

After a barrage of calls, Harrison was left with a pounding headache, feeling frustrated and helpless.

Seeing his phone ringing again, Harrison didn’t even want to answer, he just hung up and angrily threw the phone to the side.

Timothy let out another sigh, “Mr. White, call Ben. Otherwise, the decades of foundation of Stellar Group will be destroyed.”

Harrison was very clear about what it meant to call Ben.

It meant to go and beg Ben for mercy.

Harrison remembered how just an hour ago, he was looking down on Ben with disdain.

And an hour later, he was about to beg him for mercy.

Such a reversal made his face painfully twitch.

Harrison’s face was ashen, and he couldn’t make up his mind for a long time.

“Mr. White, things have gotten even worse.” The person from before rushed in again, panic–stricken.

Harrison really wanted to tell him to get lost.

But he held back, grinding his teeth he asked, “What could possibly be worse now?”
