Chapter 2

Roxanne hurried to Harvey’s office.

After pushing the door open, she spotted the little rascals inside. They were sitting on the couch in the office and swinging their legs nonchalantly.

The boys lit up at the sight of Roxanne. Scrambling off the couch, they ran toward her excitedly. “Mommy, you’re finally done! I thought you’d be staying in the laboratory forever!”

“Mommy, you’ve worked hard! Are you tired? Sit down. I’ll give you a massage.”

They led Roxanne to the couch so she could take a seat.

As Roxanne took in their concern, she suddenly felt it was worth it to get yelled at.

“Look at how obedient you are. You weren’t like this when you hacked into my computer earlier!” Harvey huffed angrily behind his desk.

Archie declared, “It was all your fault, Professor Lambert! You kept asking Mommy to work overtime. Look, she’s getting malnourished!”

“That’s right! Mommy’s an ordinary human being. How could you ask her to work day and night?” Benny chimed in as he kneaded Roxanne’s shoulder.

His temper spiking, Harvey gave a bark of laughter and responded, “You’re too overprotective of her! Everyone in the research institute does the same!”

With that said, he shook his head and turned to Roxanne. “How did your research go?”

Roxanne shot him a grin. “It went smoothly. I’ll send the data to you later.”

She paused before asking, “Have you restored the data in your computer?”

Harvey ran a hand through his hair in frustration. “It has been an hour, but I still can’t restore anything.”

Amused, Roxanne patted Benny’s hand. “Benny, go restore Professor Lambert’s computer. Don’t be naughty. What if he loses some important data?”

Benny immediately replied, “That won’t happen. I prepare a backup and various security levels every time. He won’t lose a thing!’

As he said that, he trotted over to Harvey and restored the latter’s computer.

The little boy’s fingers typed on the keyboard furiously and produced lines of codes.
