Chapter 936

Unsure of what Zach was contemplating after being silent for a while, the technician offered another possibility, “If the laptop hasn’t been tampered with, another reason could be a sudden power outage. If the battery is depleted and the plug is pulled directly, it can cause an improper shutdown that could damage the system files. To fix the laptop, we have to reinstall the operating system. There’s no other

way.”

What the technician said was something Zach should have thought of earlier. He played a rhythmic

pattern on his desk with his fingers. Then, he lifted his wrist to check the time. “Prepare a new laptop for me immediately,” Zach ordered, “and notify the senior executives to send copies of all important documents for the year to my email.”

Kevin, observing that Zach was not showing much emotion on his face, figured that the laptop’s malfunction was probably related to last night’s international video conference. He had been taking notes when suddenly, the laptop made a noise, and the screen went black. It must have had something to do

with Madelyn.

‘A laptop breakdown like that was no minor matter as it contained contracts and agreements worth billions. If anyone else had been responsible, they would have been in severe trouble. But for Mr. Jardin to remain expressionless and unconcerned, it must have been Madelyn’s doing. Aside from her, no one else would dare tamper with Zach’s laptop, as the important data inside could lead to legal liabilities if lost.”

Kevin thought.

After the technician left, Zach tried to turn on his laptop a few more times but without success. He handed the unresponsive device to Kevin and said, “Destroy it.”

“Yes, Mr. Jardin,” Kevin responded. Then he inquired, “Should I reschedule the morning meeting later?”
