Chapter 79 Unwanted Attention(II), Alex's Thoughts And Outburst

Few hours later, at the dining table, Silas was just getting up from his seat after he was done taking his breakfast. Alex and Kim were almost done with theirs.

"I will drop Alex off at school?," Silas said to Kim.

"Ok," Kim replied, as she cleaned up the dining table.

"Alex, go get your school backpack." Alex nodded and grabbed his backpack from the sofa, and walked towards Silas.

Silas looked at Alex and gestured to him to come closer, so that he can he dress his hair and straighten his clothes.

"Let's go," Silas said and grabbed Alex's hand, and left the house.

Outside, Silas and Alex walked towards the Corvette and got in, and Silas drove off.

On the way to Alex's school, Silas noticed Alex's unusual silence. Unlike before when Alex would be smiling and happily chatting with Silas in the car, Alex was unusually quiet and he had a very familiar expression on his face. An expression that he was familiar with and understood its meaning.

"You overheard me and dad fighting yesterday night?," Silas asked with a wry smile, as he looked at Alex's face, closely,

Alex looked at Silas' face with his red and moist eyes.

"..Why?," He asked. He was confused. Since the time he could remember, his father has always been abusive and violent towards them, especially towards his older brother.

He was curious and confused as to reason why. He has never remember him or his older brother being disobedient or disrespectful to their father, but why does the man treat them so.

Every time he watches cartoons, he always sees his favorite characters take good care of their family. He always sees the smile and happiness on the children faces, even though he knew that what he was watching isn't real, he couldn't stop himself from wishing for such a life.

He's completely aware that Kim isn't his real mother but he didn't care as she treated him like her own.

To him, his brother is the best person in his life. He knew how Silas would always takes the blame and beating for him, never allowing their father to lay a finger on him whenever he wants vent out on them. For this reason, he hated his father.

"Go on."

{The four groups in USA were contracted by Gelead Scientics, Con Chai Precision Industry, Safrane, Synorpses, Automata Data Processing.

The four groups in China were contracted by different Chinese companies, and the two groups in South Korea were contracted by companies from different parts if of the world, including those from USA, France, Germany...

A new attempt was made from a different location and I was able to trace it back to the Pentagon.}

Silas wasn't surprised by the identities of the hacking groups contractor, but he was shocked by LUNAR's last sentence.

"The Pentagon, as in the actual Pentagon?!," Silas asked in a mixture of shock and surprise.

{The actual Pentagon, the headquarters of the United States Department of Defense.}

"But why?," Silas couldn't help but ask. Silas knew that ELLA was good enough to attract the attention of the top companies around the world, but to attract the attention of the US Department of Defense is a whole different matter entirely.

{That's what I'm trying to find out by going through ELLA's database to see if there's any usage data from anyone inside the Pentagon.}

"Good, do that and let me know when you're done," Silas said with a sigh.

He felt like he has been sighing a lot lately but it couldn't be helped.

'The Pentagon? Hope it's just a nobody who's curious and nothing more.'

Silas decided to put the issue surrounding ELLA and the Pentagon aside from now until he gets more information from LUNAR.

Silas started the car and was about to drive off when he saw his 'best friend' walking towards him with a 'beautiful smile' on his face.

"Well, well, well. Would you look at that? If it isn't the newest big boy in town, the one and only, Silas."

Silas heard the b*stard's voice from a distance.
