Chapter 113: Revelation

Bridget decided it was the right time for her to call her contacts in China. She grabbed her phone and dialed a number only known to her. 

"Ms. von Reimann, how can I help you?"

The one that she is contacting right now is a man who dominates the cyberspace of China, the superior of them all. Known in the digital world as "The Architect," he has his fingers in various technological advancements and cybersecurity networks across Asia. His real name, however, is seldom used or known to the public.

"Bridget here. I'm reaching out concerning a matter of mutual interest. It appears that a group of hackers has been making persistent attempts to infiltrate a company's network that I'm affiliated with. We have reason to believe the operation is originating from within your territory," Bridget explained calmly.
