Don't Fall For Me, CEO-Chapter 1072: Lord Muck?

At this moment, everyone’s facial expressions changed repeatedly.

Including Joseph’s.

No one expected that the smart home products they were so proud of, claimed to be the safest, had actually been hacked.

Yet now, except for Joseph, no one dared to say anything; they could only quietly observe Joseph’s expression.

Hmm, it was worse than a stinking gutter!

Because this entire series of smart home products was personally developed under Joseph’s leadership after he became the head of The Marsden Family.

Thanks to the popularity of these products in Desrozin City, Joseph firmly secured his position as the head of The Marsden Family. This achievement was a source of pride for Joseph, to the point he once declared himself the most talented leader in the history of The Marsden Family.

But now, the product he was most proud of had been breached.

The intruder even openly mocked him.

Understandably, Joseph must have been as angry as hell.

Joseph was unaware that others were mocking him in their hearts, and even if they were, he didn’t care.

As long as he perfectly resolved today’s issue, all those who laughed at him would be damned.

Ignoring those who were observing him, Joseph asked the monitors: "Who are you? Why did you invade our manor’s system!"

Soon, bloody red letters appeared on the screen:

"Can’t stand you acting all high and mighty, just wanted to give you something to do."

"Get out now, or I’ll call the police to arrest you."

New text popped up on the screen: "If the police were any use, you’d have been locked up long ago, you old scoundrel."

Joseph’s face grew darker and darker.

Obviously, his authority had been challenged.

He called in the technical advisor to regain control of all the manor’s equipment.

But perhaps his actions angered the intruder, as all the smart devices in the manor went into rampage mode.

The automatic coffee maker brewed endlessly, the automatic lawnmower chased the servants, and all the lighting and display equipment kept flickering.

The technical advisor looked worried, but Joseph ordered, "Keep going! We must regain control!"

The technical advisor, initially full of confidence, let his fingers dance rapidly across the keyboard, thinking he could quickly regain control.

But after nearly an hour of attempts, the decryption bar was still stuck at ninety-nine percent.

"Why isn’t it decrypted yet? You useless fool!"

"I don’t know either; the virus properties are very strange, completely different from anything we’ve decrypted before. It’s more like the infamous Chicken Manure Virus that once terrified Aethelgard."

The technician had nearly worn out his fingers, yet couldn’t break the virus or find the manipulator behind it.

Thus, he suspected it might be the yet-to-be-conquered Chicken Manure Virus.

But Joseph thought he was just shirking responsibility: 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

"There’s no way it’s the Chicken Manure Virus; Lord Muck hasn’t been causing trouble for years. Stop making excuses for your incompetence, decrypt it quickly, or you’ll never work in Desrozin City again."

When the Chicken Manure Virus was rampant a few years ago, Joseph worried about being targeted by Lord Muck, so he constantly sent signals of goodwill from The Marsden Family across major forums.

As a result, he didn’t believe The Marsden Family would provoke Lord Muck.

Yet unexpectedly, the previously flickering display suddenly turned back to normal and lit up, showing another message: "I don’t like being called Lord Muck."
