Johnson immediately reprimanded him.
"What do you mean by claiming the moral high ground? You youngsters come up with all sorts of
reasonings and use an endless string of different terms.Back in our era, all we had was a passion for
the department! If everyone stands back whenever something happens, how bleak would society
become?!"
He didn't hold back at all when he reprimanded Morris and didn't show the respect that he should be to
the acting director.
He was deliberately taking Morris down a notch in front of everyone.
He wanted everyone to know that even though Morris was the acting director of the special
department, he still had the final say when it came to seniority! His words made Morris frown.
It didn't matter that he was reprimanded, but if Nora was the one being reprimanded...
He was about to say something when someone from the IT department suddenly ran over and
shouted, "Damon, Damon! This is terrible!"
Damon was taken aback.
Everyone turned around in unison and asked, "What's wrong?"
The man gasped for breath and replied, "Our network was hacked into again a moment ago.The other
party has sent us a message."
Damon asked, "What did they say?"
"lam Q, not Y."
Damon:"??"
Everyone:"??"
Stunned by the news, everyone looked at Nora, only to see her standing there calmly...If she told them
that she had asked Q to help, the group of them would definitely continue to whine.
Thus, she had decided that she would just use her actions to prove it instead.
She didn't give much of an explanation, but Brenda stepped forward and said, "I get it now! It's you who
got Q to help, Nora!"
Everyone looked at her in unison.
Brenda explained, "When we were tracking Trueman the other time, Damon wasn't skilled enough to
do it.It was the hacker whom Nora had approached who pinpointed the hotel as his location! That
hacker must have been Q, right? The person who fixed the network bug for us free of charge last night
was also Q!"
The whole corridor fell silent.
Damon's eyes widened and he looked at Nora in surprise.
"Were you really the one who helped us?"
Then, he turned back to Ruth in confusion.
"But didn’t you say that it was you who got Y to help?"
Ruth clenched her fists.She hadn't expected things to turn around this way! However, she'd already
thought that this might happen when she falsely claimed the credit, so she managed to remain calm
and composed.
She even acted surprised and said, "Y said he would help, though! Wasn't it Y who did it?"
After speaking, she deliberately took out her cell phone and took a look.
"I’ll ask him."
She went to the side and sent a message.
Brenda, however, launched straight into mockery mode.
She said, "Oh my, is there still a need to ask, though?! What's this? Are you already starting to steal
other people's credit when you've only just joined the special department?"
Then, she pretended to reprimand Nora.
"And you too, Nora! Why are you so silly?! In the future, remember to leave your name behind after you
do good deeds, get it? “
"Those who understand you all know that, even though you look like a cold person, you're actually very
enthusiastic deep down.You obviously did the IT department a big favor last night, yet you had to suffer
all these ridiculous accusations after coming to the office today! It's too much!"
Every word of hers was like a knife that stabbed right at all the people who had condemned Nora just
now.
They were all straightforward men.
Knowing that they had misunderstood her, some of them immediately apologized.
"Sorry about that, Nora! We really didn’t know..."
"Yeah.What's going on, though? Ruth claimed the credit for herself just like that.It's only because we
misunderstood that we..."
"Why did Ruth claim false credit for it, though?"
While everyone was talking about it, Ruth returned.
With a guilty look on her face, she immediately said, "I'm sorry, everyone! It was a misunderstanding on
my part! After so long, it turns out that it was a misunderstanding!"
After speaking, she handed her cell phone to Damon.
Displayed on the screen was her chat history with Y on Messenger.
Ruth: ‘Wasn't it you who helped us fix the network bug last night?’
Y: ‘No.When I infiltrated the system after agreeing to help, I found that the bug had already been fixed,
but I forgot to tell you about it”
Ruth sighed and said, "Y has always been unsociable and eccentric, and he rarely speaks.He didn't
inform me about it.Moreover, the moment I arrived at the office today, Damon said that the bug had
been fixed, so I assumed it was Y...Ms.Smith, I formally apologize for what I said just now! You should
still speak up if something happens again next time, though.The department is full of men, so their
thoughts are all very straightforward.They won't get it if you don't say anything."
Tsk.
She was accusing Nora of not being genuine enough now.
Nora looked at her and asked, "Are you very familiar with ¥?"
To think she even had him on her Messenger! Even she didn't have Y as a contact on Messenger.The
chat window in the Hacker Alliance was her only way of contacting Y! Ruth was too much! The rest,
however, felt enlightened.
"I knew it, it's just a misunderstanding!"
Elsewhere, Brenda, who had already walked out of the crowd, stared at Ruth.
At this moment, her cell phone suddenly beeped.
She looked down and saw a message from Justin: 'Have you asked her? Why is Nora ignoring me?’
Brenda took out her cell phone and sent Justin an audio message”
"It ‘s all Y's fault, Justin.If I were Nora, I would also be really mad! Someone named Ruth, who joined
the department recently, said that she's friends with Y and embarrassed Nora! Quick, go and ask him
why he has a friend like that!"
Justin:"?"
To think that was why Nora was angry! In that case, he would have to explain things properly to the
public!
