Before the attack by Jaeden and Samuel, the Monroe Group’s network was far from secure. It was only when Samuel was attacked by Carlos that the little guy started getting nervous. 

You’ve got some skills. I’ll play with you nicely,” Carlos taunted! 

Samuel was unaware that his opponent was his father. He thought the Monroe Group was getting desperate, unveiling their “secret weapon.” 

“Brother, go for it. You’re the best,” Catherine cheered on her brother while watching him intensely typing. 

Samuel, amidst nervousness, couldn’t help but find it amusing when he heard Catherine’s words. 

“By the way, Catherine, there are some cupcakes Mommy baked for me in my backpack. You can have them.” 

He cared about Catherine, especially when she was willing to give up her favorite class to stay with him firmly. “Really? Mommy baked cupcakes, and I didn’t know?” Catherine’s eyes lit up at the mention of sweets. 

She rushed to Samuel’s little backpack, turning it upside down, “It’s true.” 

Catherine was delighted but also a bit sad. “Mommy is so biased. She baked cupcakes and didn’t give me any.” 

“Isn’t it because you eat too many sweets?” Samuel said as he shook his head. 

Samuel knew that Vera’s love for them was equal, but he jokingly blamed Catherine for eating too many sweets, leading Vera to limit her dessert intake. 

“I know. You all think I’m a little chubby and won’t give me any, Catherine pouted. 

That was what her aunt and cousin said in private. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

“Who said that? You’re not chubby at all. In my heart, you are the cutest.” In order to comfort her, Samuel generously declared, “All the cupcakes are for you.” 

“Thank you, Samuel. I knew you were the best.” Catherine opened the individually wrapped cupcakes and started eating. “Don’t finish them all at once. Save some for the afternoon,” Samuel advised, shifting his focus back to the computer. 

The Monroe Group’s “secret weapon” had some skills. In a short time, Samuel’s fake IP addresses in the network were decrypted. 

Now that he was being tracked, Samuel had to fire back. 

“Well, I know,” Catherine responded, but she continued walking around the classroom, keeping an eye out for Samuel. 

She didn’t pay much attention to Samuel’s words, engrossed in devouring the cupcakes one after another. 

Perhaps she ate too fast, Catherine felt a bit choked and went to get some water. 

After drinking all the water from her small bottle, she still felt thirsty. 

“Samuel, I’ll go to the water room to get some more.” Catherine took her small water bottle and carefully carried Samuel’s as well. 

Knowing Samuel was busy, she assumed he wouldn’t have time to fetch water. So, she decided to get some for him.

“Thank you.” Samuel was fighting against Carlos attentively. Except for Jaeden, he had never met such a strong opponent. 

So, Samuel didn’t dare to neglect the fighting and didn’t pay attention to what she said. 

He responded casually when he heard Catherine’s words. 

The classroom soon fell silent, with only the sound of Samuel typing on the keyboard. 

“Samuel, can you hold on?” Jaeden noticed something unusual on Samuel’s end and activated a secret communication device to ask him. 

“Don’t worry, Jaeden. I can hold on for a while. You go and break through Monroe Group’s firewall quickly.” 

Samuel’s forehead was already covered in tiny beads of sweat, as he struggled against the relentless opponent.
