Chapter 381 North Behaves Peculiarly
This person must have something up their sleeves. A dozen technicians had been keeping on high alert the whole night, so much so that their eyes almost popped out of their sockets. Yet, there was no progress at all! Every time the loading bar hit 99%, it jumped back to the beginning again.
Though Brian didn’t sleep the whole night, he did not have a headache this time. On any other day, he would have needed painkillers.
Maybe Olivia’s needle injection really worked for him. He stood up and went over to ask, “How is it?”
A man apologized. “President Mccarthy, it still doesn’t work. That person must be an expert. The virus might have been implanted into the system already. That’s why we can’t finish loading it every single time. We are trying to find another method.”
Maybe it was because he had lost his temper too much that night, or maybe he just got tired. Regardless, Brian was surprisingly quiet this time. He just responded vaguely to this news and sat back on the sofa.
Closing his eyes, he just wanted to rest because he was too tired from not being able to sleep last night.
After a while, he vaguely heard a chattering voice.
“Who is that kid? He’s so handsome and cool.”
“Isn’t that President Nolam?
“Then wouldn’t that kid be his son?”
“Never heard he was married, though.”
The chattering noises from the crowd woke Brian up. He lazily lifted his eyelids and took a glance to see Eugene walking from afar with North. He was awake instantly and naturally took a glance to their backs, wondering if there were any other people aside from them. There was none.
At that moment, he couldn’t control his lips twitching. He said he would find people to help, and he found this little boy?
Are you kidding me?
He really puts high trust on his son, doesn’t he?
North was sweating profusely too. When his dad asked for his help, he did not explain anything. If he had known he was coming to this place, he would not have agreed to it. He stopped his footsteps and tightened his little eyebrows before looking up to his dad. “Please don’t tell me that you’re asking me to help Uncle Brian.”
Eugene replied in surprise, “Yeah. What’s wrong? Their computer server is paralyzed, and the technician has been solving it all night, but to no avail. You can take a look at it!”
North did not give any response.
No! I won’t!
What’s wrong with him?
I’m the one who implanted the virus! Now I have to solve it? Do I look that stupid?
North slightly raised his chin and said, “I still have to attend school!” Instantly, he turned his back and left.
Eugene was stunned. What’s wrong with this little fellow?
Usually, he is not that harsh and rude.
“Wait, North.” He ran to catch up to his son. He then straight away squatted down to stop him. “What’s the matter?”
North said, “Nothing. I just don’t want to be late for school.”
Such a ‘great’ excuse.
But Eugene knew that this was definitely not the reason he did not want to help out. Something must be wrong between him and Brian.
“Wait for me for a while.” Eugene glanced at Brian suspiciously.
As soon as he said that, he bent over and carried North up.
After walking straight out of the office, he went to the car.
But instead of driving out, Eugene looked at North, full of curiosity.
North didn’t react. He just lowered his head with his slender fingers dancing around, as if he were bored with this conversation.
“Is there something going on between you and Uncle Brian?”
“No!” North answered lazily. He didn’t even lift up his head while he was answering the question.
“Then why won’t you help him?”
North silently rolled his eyes and turned to his dad. “I wonder how you’d survive without me. Do you even know that someone wants to steal your wife away?” he rebuked his dad, as if he was the dad to Eugene, not the other way round.
Eugene looked at the little guy worriedly, a bit dumbfounded. “Who’s stealing my wife?”
North glared at him furiously. “Who can it be? It’s Uncle Brian! When I told you that someone was going after Mommy, I meant Uncle Brian! Last night, he even talked about wanting to date Mommy and be my dad. Moreover, he said we should stay away from you because you are dangerous! How could you not sense it? He is your rival, your love competitor. Why did you still ask me to help him?”
