MOMMY SUPER COOL NOVEL

Chapter 22 Stealing Someone Else’s Design Kaylee pounded on the table furiously.
Just then, two more people came in from outside. They were designers at her fashion studio and they were all in the same situati
on. “Miss Kaylee, our sketches are gone too.” “Yeah, so is mine.”
That was when Kaylee realized the severity of the situation. “Get a
technician to come have a look right now.” From outside, a man replied, “The technician was just with me earlier. He said either s
omeone erased it or we were hacked.”
She was stunned. “Hacked?”
What hacker would want to attack my small studio? “Is there no way to recover it?” she asked desperately. “Unfortunately, there i
sn‘t. The technician said it was a skilled hacker. He can‘t seem to find a trace.” Kaylee flopped in her chair with a ghastly look on
her face. Sarah consoled, “Don‘t panic, Miss Kaylee. Do you guys have any hand–
drawn sketches? If you polish it up a bit, you can probably still make it in
time for the registration.” Kaylee glared at Sarah. “Are you a fool? The contest wants us to submit a digital copy of our designs!”
Sarah fell silent. She only wanted to comfort Kaylee. Kaylee brushed them off, “Okay, just get out. All of you.” They started to shu
ffle out of the room. Kaylee sat in her chair completely dumbfounded. Who
would hack her tiny studio? She got up and closed the door to her office then made a phone call. “Ben, can you come over right
now?” A man gushed from the other end of the phone, “What‘s wrong, sweetheart?” “Someone hacked my computer and all my
designs are gone,” she said anxiously. “Don‘t fret, sweetheart. I‘m out of town right now. Can I go tomorrow? I‘ll take
a look at it for you tomorrow.” She frowned. “Can’t you come back now?” “Sweetheart, I‘m in Mastar. I can make it back tomorrow
at the earliest. Don‘t worry. When have I ever pushed off your things?” She
murmured, “When is your flight? I‘ll go and pick you up.”
The voice on the phone suddenly turned dubious, “Do
you miss me already?” “Ugh, did you have to ask?” she grumbled and started to blush, He laughed. “I‘ll let you know after I book
the plane tickets, I miss you to death.” They flirted back and forth for a while before hanging up, She sat in her chair and spent so
me time thinking, I can‘t just sit here in defeat. What if Ben can‘t recover the data either? Won‘t I just be wasting my time?
All of a sudden, she sprung up and left the studio, then drove home to the Aubrey Residence
When she got home, Alana was the only one there.
“Mom!” she yelled as soon as she entered the house,

Alana was quite taken aback to see Kaylee come home. “Why are you back already?”
“Did you throw away all of Gianna‘s things?” Kaylee asked. Alana could not understand what was happening. “All of her things ar
e in storage.” Kaylee did not have time to explain
and went straight into the storage. She searched through it for about half an hour before coming out with a book of design sketch
es. Alana asked, “What is that?”
“Design sketches. The sketch I prepared for
the competition got erased. There are only a few more days left before the registration closes. I’m going to see if I can find anythi
ng useful in here,” she said as she flipped through the book. Those sketches came from the sudden bursts of inspiration Gianna
got while she studied design. They were all compiled into one thick book. When Gianna left the house last time, she did not man
age to take all these things with her.
Kaylee stopped flipping abruptly
and her gaze fell on the page in front of her. There were four formal wear sketches altogether; each of them was in a different sha
plum, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum. There was a fusion of traditional Chinese art in the designs and
each one was mesmerizing and refreshing to look at. Originally, Kaylee wanted to come home to distract herself. She figured thos
expect, however, that Gianna would have such contemporary ideas in designs from seven years ago. “This one. I should
be able to use this to enter the contest,” she mused. Alana was slightly concerned. “I heard that Gianna is back. If she catches
you, aren’t you afraid she‘ll sue you for copyright infringement?”
