Chapter 41 - technological darkness
Ten years passed since the day the Cross family extinguished the threat from Europe. Damian's passing left a massive void in Sophia's heart, but she filled it with resilience and intellect. The Cross conglomerate is now a symbol of immense economic and charitable power.
However, absolute dominance always attracts new enemies. A dark force silently rose, not from the underworld, but from high-tech towers. The arrogant billionaire Silas Thorne wanted to acquire the Cross family's massive logistics network at all costs.
Silas did not use guns and bullets; he used sophisticated cyberattacks. His goal was to paralyze the systems of the charity hospitals, creating public pressure to force Sophia to cede her controlling shares of the strategic seaports to his own conglomerate.
One freezing winter evening, the Cross conglomerate's central servers were suddenly taken down completely. All medical relief operations were immediately halted. Sophia's workstation screen flashed an extortion message in blazing red characters.
