Chapter 120: Ken appeared at the entrance of theboratory, his expression sharp as a de.


    When did thispany be a yground for uninvited guests And remember me, I have not cklisted you two How did your names to the viewing group list.


    Colton and Mny froze, their bravado evaporating in an instant.


    Not a word escaped their lips.


    They knew very well that their names were not on the list; They had simply joined the group, hoping to take the opportunity to repair their deteriorating rtionship with Ken.


    But in their overconfidence, they had overstepped themselves, momentarily forgetting the precarious position they found themselves in.


    Ken, with cold eyes, addressed the murmurings around him,ing to Allison''s defense with quick determination.


    Miss rke is not just a leader here; She is a shareholder.


    One of the bosses.


    She really needs her permission to act.


    She let out a harshugh and continued: And not only that, she is the head of the fragrance department.


    You can make whatever changes you see fit, no one in thispany would dare to object! As her words echoed in the room, the technicians'' faces lost color.


    Until now, they had seen Allison as a simple leader appointed by someone else.


    upstairs, without imagining that she was the owner.


    Disobeying a leader''s orders could be overlooked, but betraying a shareholder was a different matter.


    A shareholder could have their heads rolling in no time.


    Scarlet Serpent is a shareholder of the Charisma Company, someone murmured, half in disbelief.


    Still, you can''t go around breaking the rules.


    Attendees were perfume industry insiders, usually friendly, but self-preservation kicked in when conflicts of interest arose.


    Another voice was raised deliberately: This doesn''t seem to follow protocol.


    Allison''s response was as icy as it was quick.


    Since when has Buggins been running the fragrance industry? You may be older than me, but remind me: where did you ce in the Perfumery Competition? The man''s face flushed and then paled.


    She hadn''t even qualified to enter the contest.


    Allison''s lips curled into a sneer.


    Some are born with talent, while others spend their lives clinging to tradition.


    You can spend your entire life following the rules, but you''ll never match the spark of inspiration from someone with true skill.


    So instead ofining about what is unfair, why don''t you ept that perhaps it is your own limits that are holding you back.


    He typed onest line into theputer before slowly standing up, his gaze colder than the winter wind that swept through him.


    the room.


    Everyone, especially theb technicians, felt the weight of his eyes on them and felt an involuntary shiver.


    Until now they had underestimated how formidable she could be.


    Sensing an opportunity, Marc, pushed by Mny, stepped forward to challenge her.


    Ms.


    rke, even if you are a shareholder, you should not sit idly by at theboratory''s central control post.


    And if someone malicious hacked into the system while you were careless.


    Thea, with her usual air of innocence, interjected: Oh, but I think Mrs.


    rke mentioned that she was “fixing” theputer because the mainframe had been attacked.


    This did not more than spurring the others, whose words dripped with ridicule.


    He''s not a perfumer Even if there was a gap, why would he be ying with theputer And he didn''t even let us see what he was doing.


    Carisma''s firewall is one of the strongest in Ontdale.


    There is no way it could have been hacked so easily.


    "We''ve never had any problems in years.


    " A wave of doubt swept through the room, and most of those present were convinced that Allison had neglected her duties.


    Ken frowned, but didn''t hesitate to believe Allison.


    Just as he opened his mouth to speak, a staff member entered the room carrying a stack of documents.


    Mr.


    Lloyd, ourpany website just suffered a serious cyber attack.


    The entire database almost disappears.


    But it was restored just in time.


    I thought headquarters had intervened, but they couldn''t have acted so quickly.


    Ken''s eyes shed with understanding.


    He turned to Allison, a hint of admiration in his voice.


    It seems that Miss rke has done us a favor once again.


    All eyes turned to Allison, who remained calm and collected,pletely unfazed by the chaos.


    Behind her, theputer screen disyed line after line ofplex code, and the once-broken web page quickly returned to normal.


    Mny''s jaw dropped and she muttered, Allison.


    .


    .


    how is that possible? Colton stared in disbelief, his eyes wide open.


    Mind racing as I stared at the screens.


    She could hardly understand that Allison, of all people, had the ability to repair such a sophisticated system.


    Those who had mocked her were silently ashamed.


    Their previous taunts hade full circle, leaving a sting that they couldn''t ignore.


    .
