Chapter 2320

Celine was safely escorted back while Saul and the others also returned to the country safely.

Everything had returned to normal with Lydia’s two petroleum fields and other properties as well.

If anything had gone wrong with the petroleum fields, Lydia knew that Nori would have informed him about it when they called just now.

“Are you able to implant a Trojan Horse virus through this?”

The technician immediately nodded at Lydia’s question. “I can, Mr. Laine. I can do that with ease, but if they were to ever investigate…” Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

“I’ll take care of that. If they ever come to you over this, tell me. I’ll take full responsibility.”

The technician was filled with confidence when he received Lydia’s assurance. Then, the technician began to tap away on the keyboard and quickly prepared the virus.

“It’s all done now, Mr. Laine. I also upgraded this computer’s firewall. What happened today shouldn’t happen again.”

Molie was pleased and nodded. “Alright. You’re free to go now…”

Now that the technician had left, only the couple was left in the office.

Lydia reached out to pull Molie into his arms again and this time, she did not push him away. At the very least, Lydia could conclude that the misunderstanding between them had been resolved.

Molie’s expression was calm when she looked at Lydia and asked. “When are you leaving again?”

Lydia knew that if a woman were to ask this question, she had already known the answer in her heart.

So, Lydia replied. “Tomorrow, of course! I’m giving myself a day off today. I want to spend the whole of today with you!”

Molie finally smiled brightly when she heard this reply.

Lydia let Molie decide how they were going to spend the rest of the day. Molie was ecstatic, it had been ages since they had any alone time together.

That night, when Lydia and Molie spent the night together, Anita received some great news far away in Steven.

“Miss Anita, I spent the whole of today visiting and examining the different petroleum merchants in Bashra. No one is missing on the list.”

Anita smiled proudly.

“Very good! Even if Lydia Laine were to come to Bashra, it would already be too late for him to do anything! The results will be out tonight. It’s time for me to show myself.”

“Yes, Miss Anita!”

According to Anita’s arrangement, she ticked a few names on the name list. Those few ticks decided the fate of certain petroleum businesses. Excluding the merchants Anita had chosen, the others would all be disqualified. It was at this moment that Anita truly became the person in charge.

After looking at the list, Milos proceeded to inform everyone.

The news caused a huge uproar among the people.

Long lines began to form before the doors to the Petroleum Chamber of Commerce made up of disqualified merchants. This was the first time the president of the Petroleum Chamber of Commerce, Murik had seen such a scene, and he was lost.

As such, Murik decided to contact Lydia to discuss what to do next, only to realize that the man was nowhere to be found.

“What do I do now? I can’t possibly do anything for so many people!”

Murik knew the extent of his capabilities and he knew he could not calm the people rioting outside alone.

Just as he was at a loss for what to do, Murik saw someone who would be the answer to his troubles.
