Chapter 86
“No, hackers wouldn’t do something like this, especially those with a conscience. They wouldn’t harm
people,” Pearl firmly asserted. Despite being a top hacker, she had never engaged in immoral or
malicious activities.
While staring at the numbers before him, Raymond muttered, “Maybe we can revert the flight path if
there’s a hacker to help us change the data. It’ll be easier for us to handle it by then.”
Pearl’s eyes lit up at his suggestion. She promptly rose from her seat and rushed back to retrieve her
laptop.
With her hacking skills, she attempted to breach the civil aviation website. Although it was more difficult

Upon gaining access, she located the information pertaining to their flight and modified the flight route,
enhancing it based on the original data. With intermittent guidance from Raymond, she assumed
control of the plane, and they managed to steady the plane.
“We did it!” Pearl exclaimed in joy as the plane’s condition steadily improved.
Raymond relaxed too. “Yeah, it’s all because of you.!
Pearl smiled faintly. “I couldn’t do this if it weren’t for your suggestion and advice.”
“All right, enough with the modesty. Since the plane can now fly automatically, let’s go back to our
seats,” Raymond proposed.
Pearl nodded, and they made their way back to the first–class cabin.
Though they had only been gone a short while, it felt like an eternity to Richard. Overwhelmed with
indescribable emotions upon seeing Pearl return, he anxiously asked, “You’re not hurt, are you?”
His question made Pearl burst into laughter. “Of course! I’m Pearl, and there’s nothing I can’t handle.”
“I didn’t expect you to be so talented and brave given your young age, Miss Pearl.” While Raymond
was talking, his eyes were full of amazement and admiration for Pearl, which did not go unnoticed by
Richard.
As a man, Richard naturally knew what Raymond’s gaze meant.
“You’re not so bad yourself. Without your insights, I wouldn’t have been able to think of a solution and
save the plane,” Pearl complimented Raymond politely.
Richard interjected coldly, “You could have done it even without him.”

he… jealous of Raymond?
Snickering inwardly, Pearl explained to Raymond, “My friend can be a bit competitive. Please don’t take
it to heart.”
Raymond kept his smile, now having a clearer understanding of Pearl’s relationship with Richard.
“I understand. Maybe he’s just… trying to protect his girlfriend, so he’s a little hostile.” He couldn’t help
but notice Richard’s overprotectiveness and possessiveness over Pearl.
“No, you’ve got the wrong idea. We’re not in a relationship.” Shocked, Pearl spoke up to deny it.
However, Richard was not eager to refute Raymond but pulled Pearl into his arms. “Okay, it’s over. You
can go back to your seat now. We’ll arrive at Mosvil in a while.”
