“It’s indecent not to reciprocate,” William said calmly.
Jim was instantly excited and asked, “Mr. Hawk, what are we hacking Tracy?”
It had been a long time since he hacked someone. He was itching to play.
The other party had a hacker expert who could break through Mr. Hawk’s firewall. He just happened to want to meet him.
“I remember the Yost Group had a media company that does well, right?” William said.
“Yes, it’s called Delight Media. They’ve signed many young and beautiful streamers. They’re doing great now and have strong influences. Some popular celebrities have even joined the Delight media to sell goods with them, Jim said with an odd look in his eyes.
Should they hack the company? Then he could show off his skills.
“Is the most intense time of their live stream from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m.?” William asked again.
The Hawk Group also had a media company.
Their operating model was actually similar. The live stream was carried out when there were the most people.
“Yes, Mr. Hawk, Jim replied.
“Starting at 8:30 p.m., hack all the networks of Delight Media,” William ordered.
First, let them live stream for half an hour. After their live stream gained popularity, all of them suddenly went offline.
Secondly, Tracy should be at the thank–you banquet tonight. He had a few words to say to Tracy in person.
“Yes, Mr. Hawk.” Jim rubbed his fists and waited for 8:30 p.m.

It was past 6 p.m.
The thank–you banquet began.
The hotel booked by the Hawk family was a tribute to those who had participated in the condolences to Henry.
It never occurred to Vanessa that there would be more than a hundred tables of guests at Henry’s funeral.
What surprised her the most was that Henry’s relatives, who had never been in contact, had all rushed over from Estain City.
They didn’t go to the funeral home to pay their respects but came to the banquet today.
“Vanessa, it’s been a few years since we last met. You’ve grown into a big girl. Your father is still the most capable person to raise you so well. Child, your father is less blessed. You have to take good care of Danny. Our big family will always be your family and your safe haven,” a bloated woman said warmly.
Seeing William beside Vanessa, she praised again, “You’re William, aren’t you? You’re such a handsome, talented person.”
“That’s right. They’re a perfect match. They are truly talented and beautiful, made in heaven.
Although they hadn’t seen each other for many years, Vanessa knew them. They were Pamela Sanchez, Henry’s sister, and Mae, Henry’s sister–in–law.
They were Henry’s family.
Vanessa thought of the past when they were together.
They had interacted in the past.
Every festive season, Henry would bring them back to their hometown.
Before Danny was one year old, every time they went back to their hometown to celebrate the festival with them, they all were happy. Pamela, Vanessa’s aunt, and Stanly, Vanessa’s uncle, were friendly and enthusiastic to them like now,
Pamela and Stanly were repairing their houses in their hometown. Henry had lent them some money.
Later, after Shannic took the house money and ran away, Henry was so angry that he collapsed in bed for a few days. When Henry brought her back to their hometown with Danny later to borrow money from Pamela and Stanly, their expressions changed on the spot.
Pamela and Stanly reluctantly returned the money they had borrowed previously from Henry and said Henry was stupid. Henry’s son, Danny, was born deaf and mute, but he could give birth to another child. Spending tens of thousands of dollars to treat Danny might not be able to treat him well. Henry had a good life, but he had to ruin everything. When

their lives were better, Henry asked them for money…
They even said some unpleasant words, but Vanessa could not remember their exact words. She only remembered that they were unwilling to return her father’s money as if it was theirs. They even said that their sibling should not interact with each other in the future.
Henry was carrying Danny at that time, and his eyes were red.
From then on, they never returned to their hometown for the holidays.
All these years, they had almost forgotten that they had relatives.
Unexpectedly, they actually rushed from Estain City to Lantrie City now.
“Child, why aren’t you saying anything?” Seeing that Vanessa was silent. Pamela was upset but still had a slightly embarrassed smile on her face.
Vanessa knew well. They didn’t come because her father was their biological brother. They came because the Hawke family issued Henry’s obituary and hosted the thank–you banquet.
How much were feelings worth in their hearts?
Stanly said, “Well, Vanessa feels terrible after Henry left. Let’s all sit down. We’ll catch up after eating.
“Vanessa, come here. Let’s sit together. I haven’t seen you for many years. I have a lot to tell you.” Pamela held Vanessa’s hand enthusiastically.
Stanly told Pamela, “Vanessa doesn’t have time to sit down and eat. Don’t you see that there are more than a hundred tables here? She has to greet the guests. Come on, let’s take our seats first.
“Okay, okay the group said. Then they took their seats.
Behind Pamela, someone introduced herself again. “Vanessa, do you still remember me? I’m Brie, your father’s third aunt. I even carried you when you were little.”
I’m your Grandma Irine!”
I’m your Grandfather Shawn.”
Suddenly, a bunch of relatives appeared.
William knew that Vanessa was in a bad mood. He held her hand and said, “Let’s find a place to sit, too.”
“Yeah,” Vanessa replied.
William happened to see Barron walking over with Tracy in his arms.
William had lost a contract worth more than 60 million dollars today. Barron was in high spirits.
There would be a monthly summary meeting next week, and he could focus on William’s loss of the contract. He could also let Arthur, their grandfather, and the small shareholders see that William’s ability was only so–so.
“William, are you busy?” Barron greeted William meaningfully.
Looking at Barron, William raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled. “Barron, you can’t see?”
“William, why are you attacking me? Are you in a bad mood?” Barron smiled. “I understand. I’ll talk less and eat more. Tracy, let’s find a place to sit.”
He deliberately called Tracy intimately and hugged Tracy’s waist to kiss her face, provoking William on purpose.
“Ms. Yost, I have a gift for the Yost family at 8:30 p.m.” William ignored Barron’s actions and said calmly.
Tracy frowned. “William, what do you mean by that?”
“Literally.” William held Vanessa’s hand and prepared to leave.
Then William turned back to look at Barron and said lightly, “Barron, the Hawk Group has achieved what it is today through everyone’s down–to–earth efforts step by step. A saying goes that it is easy to start a business but difficult to maintain it. A thousand–mile dike collapses in an ant’s nest. I hope the Hawk family won’t produce a termite.”
“So, what do you mean?” The smile on Barron’s face suddenly disappeared.
William said calmly, “Barron, listen if you can, and feel free if you don’t. We have our separate roads. Nessa, let’s go over there. I’ll introduce you to Yvonne when she comes back later.”
Yvonne was William’s biological sister and had been overseas recently. She had planned to come back in a few days to participate in the first round of the Emerald Cup designing competition.

Vanessa’s father had passed away, so she came back early.
William was looking for a place to sit down with Vanessa when a beautiful girl came in from the door and ran over. “William, Vanessa,” she called.
When she smiled, her eyes curved into crescents, sweet and pure.
