Chapter 874 The Price of Freedom
Ronin thought in his mind with some shock, "I'm free?" Although he confirmed it again, he still couldn't believe what he heard.
"Come on. I'll walk you out." Finn waved at Ronin, signaling him to stand up.
Ronin stood up with a bewildered look on his face and followed Finn. When he was about to walk out the door, he came back to his senses.
He stopped in his tracks while calling Finn to a halt. "Wait, I have one more thing to do."
Finn turned around to look at him, his mocking eyes filled with curiosity."
What? Do you want to stay? Don't be greedy. Since you have the chance to leave, leave as fast as you can. If our boss changes his mind later, you'll regret it."
"No!" Ronin shook his head and then said firmly, "I want to see Flash."
He wanted to see Flash again before leaving.
Hearing his request, Finn was a little surprised. He had originally thought that Ronin was going to request money or something like that, but he didn't expect that he actually wanted to see their captain.
In these days, Flash's situation had been getting worse and worse.
In the beginning, Flash was indeed very good to Finn. Finn was very worried about Flash in his heart, but with their boss watching him, he couldn't do anything.
After hesitating for a moment, Finn made the decision. "Okay, I'll take you there. But you only have three minutes. When the time is up, you must go."
"Okay." Ronin agreed. Three minutes was enough time for him.
He followed Finn to the detention room on the third floor below. He saw Flash there.
Finn opened the door and Ronin slowly walked in.
Ronin was very punctual and appeared at the door in just three minutes.
Finn didn't know exactly what Ronin and Flash had talked about. Due to the time constraints, he couldn't think too much and could only take Ronin out first.
The dazzling sunlight lightly sprinkled on Ronin. He forgot how long it had been since he had seen sunlight like this. He lifted his head and closed his eyes, enjoying the baptism of sunlight.
Finn threw him a car key. "There's a car ahead. Go! This is the last gift from the boss to you."
Ronin, however, remembered something else. "Where's Professor Warner?"
He hadn't seen Winston in a few days and wondered what his current situation
was.
Upon hearing his question, Finn showed a very eerie smile. "I thought you only cared about your freedom. I didn't expect you to remember your mentor. But it doesn't help that you remember him. Ronin, you need to know that your freedom is hard won, so don't you think about others."
Hearing him out, Ronin's face immediately sank. He wanted to come forward and ask in detail, but Finn had already left, not even giving him the chance to continue asking.
Ronin instantly understood. It turned out that the reason why they let him go so easily was because they still had something in their hands that could continue to threaten him.
They knew that he valued Winston, so to make him willing to do things for them, they released him, leaving Winston as a bargaining chip.
Ronin cursed in his mind, "You guys think you can hold me like that? It's ridiculous!"
He knew that staying wouldn't change anything now, so he could only leave first. In the quiet conference room of the Duncan Corporation, the department
managers were reporting on the situation.
Suddenly, the door of the conference room was pushed open from outside.
Afterward, Paxton walked in through the door with a serious face. He came to Branden and whispered about something.
Branden then stood up and said to the secretary at the side, "The meeting is suspended. I will notify you of the new meeting time."
The secretary immediately responded, " Okay, Mr. Duncan."
After that, Branden strode away with Paxton, leaving behind a group of executives to face each other and discuss.
"What's going on here? Why is Mr. Duncan gone?"
"He left so suddenly. Something big must have happened."
"I think so. Did you notice how serious Mr. Paxton's face was when he walked
in?"
"Yes, I noticed it too."
Branden hurried back to the office with Paxton. As soon as he sat down, he reached out and unbuttoned the collar, looking obviously a little impatient. " Tell me, what's going on?"
"Mr. Duncan, our database has been stolen. A very important batch of data is missing. If this batch of data leaks out, our cooperation with Breen Group will be ruined, and it will be declared in the name of our breach of contract," said Paxton.
In that case, not only would the Duncan Corporation lose its business, but it would also pay out lots of money for breach of contract, and the entire Duncan Corporation would be plunged into a crisis.
Branden looked at Paxton with a cold expression and asked, "Have you found out who the thief is?"
"The security department has fully verified and they have a suspicious target." Paxton looked at Branden with an embarrassed expression and didn't dare to say anything further.
Upon seeing this, Branden's voice immediately became cold. "Who is it? Just tell
me directly."

The cold voice made Paxton tremble
all over. He told Branden the
suspicious target. "They suspect it's
m
Ronin. We were also attacked by were e Rohim once before. There was no loss that time, but the security department recorded Ronin's attack
way and dynamics. The attack way
this time is very similar to the last time, and it is very likely to be the same person." Visit Popsnovel.com to read the latest chapter of this novel

The security department of the Duncan Corporation wasn't just a facade, it was full of top technical experts. It was natural that they could
be so sure because they had
evidence in this regard. Visit Popsnovel.com to read the latest

The person who stole their data should be Ronin. That wasn't wrong.
After Branden heard the news, his eyes immediately darkened. "Make the news
public."
"Okay." Paxton knew that Branden was not trying to avoid Catherine by doing
this.
As long as the news went public, Catherine would soon know it.

The two were discussing their
strategy when there was a sudden
knock on the door, followed by then Β' secretary pushing her way in. "Mr. Duncan, the delegation from the
Breen Group is here. They want to see you. They said they have something very important." Visit Popsnovel.com to read the latest chapter of this novel
"Take them to the reception room. I'll be right there." Branden instructed and the secretary slowly walked out the door.
As soon as the secretary left, Paxton's expression then tensed. "Mr. Duncan,
they definitely got the news and deliberately came to the door to pick a fight."
"If this was not done by them, how could they receive the news so quickly? "This thought made Paxton angry. They're simply cheap."
Even Paxton could see through this, Branden naturally knew it in his heart, too.
He made up his mind in his heart," Since they dare to come, I'd like to see what they can do."
"Go. Let's meet them." Branden walked toward the reception room, with Paxton following closely behind.
The people sent by Breen Group this time were the same as last time. It was still the same general manager and the deputy director.
Unlike last time, they had clearly become more arrogant this time. Seeing Branden enter the door, the general manager immediately stood up and
said with a smile, "Mr. Duncan, we're here again. I hope we're not disturbing
you."
Paxton didn't hold back and said with disgust, "Since you know you're disturbing Mr. Duncan, why are you still here? Don't you know Mr. Duncan is too busy to
receive you?"
His rude words made the smile on the general manager's face instantly freeze.
The general manager looked a bit embarrassed.
The atmosphere of the scene suddenly became a bit awkward.
