Talented Heiress: A Rose With Thorns



Yvette's commanding presence stunned everyone in the room and they looked at her incredulously.

How could this woman exude such an overwhelming charisma that made people instinctively want to submit to her?novelbin

Bernice felt humiliated in front of the crowd. She glared at Yvette and hissed, "Why should I listen to you-"

Before Bernice could finish her sentence, she felt a firm grip on her shoulder. In the next moment, Yvette threw her aside, ripping her away from the main console.

Yvette remained nonchalant and took her place in front of the computer. Her slender fingers flew across the keyboard with remarkable speed. Bernice and everyone present were left speechless, clearly taken aback by Yvette's audacity.

"What are you doing?" Bernice seethed, her face turning a shade of red as she scrambled back to her feet. She glared at Yvette and bellowed, "The security center isn't a place for you to act recklessly! If you mess things up and the last firewall falls, are you going to bear the consequences?" As the crowd began to react, murmurs spread through the room.

"Exactly! Ms. Lowel is ranked fifth on the global hacker leaderboard. If she can't fend off those foreign hacker attacks, how could a nobody like that girl do better?"

"Yeah! If anything goes wrong, will she be able to take responsibility?"

Adam's expression darkened at the murmurs casting doubt on his sister. In a calm yet authoritative tone, he declared, "If anything goes wrong, I will take full responsibility."

The room fell silent at his words.

Yvette flashed a bright smile as she gave Adam a thumbs-up. "You were so cool just then."

Hearing such praise from his beloved sister warmed Adam's heart. He had complete faith in Yvette. After all, she was the prodigy whose hacking skills had once sent shockwaves through the community. He believed she had what it took to resolve this crisis for the military.

Given Adam's high rank in the military, his words commanded respect. The room fell silent as everyone turned their attention to Yvette, eager to see her work.

Bernice stood nearby and gritted her teeth in resentment. She couldn't wait to witness Yvette fail to fend off the hacker attacks. When that happened, both she and Adam would be in trouble.

Yvette focused intently, her fingers flying over the keyboard. She typed out strings of code at a

speed that left the onlookers in awe.

Then, a series of electronic notifications filled the air, stunning everyone present.

"Alert deactivated!"

"Firewall repaired successfully!"

"Successfully breached the enemy's firewall!"

The crowd, including Bernice, stared in disbelief, their mouths agape. Not only had she repelled the foreign hacker group's attack, but she had also counter-hacked them in a stunning display of skill. It was incredible!

Bernice's capabilities were nowhere close to Yvette's.

"What the hell? Why did the hackers at the security center in Croedal suddenly become so capable?"

The opposing hackers cursed under their breath when they realized they were against an unbeatable opponent. Hence, they logged off in a hurry to avoid being tracked with Yvette's counterattack on their systems.
