Resurrecting the Genius Within (Calypso Rain)

Chapter 329 One Vote Behind

George turned off his phone and threw it aside.

Dylan said, "Mr. George worked hard to get votes."

Finished

Dylan, who had just slinked out of the office, was incredibly relieved he got his scolding over with. If he had been a bit later and caught in the middle of this voting mess, with George seeing those numbers and getting in a foul mood, he doubted he'd make it out of the office alive.

Everyone shifted from the intense voting battle to the forum, where they started venting their frustration at the vote-riggers. Just then, the voting results were updated again.

A vote for George.

A vote for Yves.

"This voting is crazy, an extra vote just popped up out of nowhere. Someone's definitely stirring the pot!"

"Perfect! Nice! We, the George-Isabelle fans, are killing it!"

"Why can't I cast my vote? Nothing's happening. Are you guys able to vote?"

Five minutes later, the vote count was updated again

A vote for Yves.

A vote for George.

"Are they competing now? I wonder which two classmates are behind this. Must've cost a pretty penny!"

"Guys, let's pool sources! We

can't lose to them. Everyone, vote for Basketball Box godtera bebromy

to everyone!"

"I can't vote either. I checked a few online platforms and none of them work."

"D*mn, a simple vote has turned into this big

networks, where did they find these experts?"

Are hackers involved? They both have such extensive

During the heated discussion, the votes were updated again.

A vote for George.

A vote for Yves

"Mr. George's vote count went up

ain, another vote! Nice!"

Seeing this, everyone shifted from participants to spectators, eagerly watching to see what astronomical numbers would appear and who would outvote whom.

"I can't vote anymore. The link got hacked."

"Do you think Mr. George knows about the voting?"

"If Mr. George knows, would he vote for himself?"

"Think bigger. He'd rig the votes directly."

"Looks like you accidentally told the truth."

"I wonder if Isabelle voted, and if so, for whom?"

Dylan held his phone. Did Mr. George rig the votes? The figures look so fake. Whoever's doing this is just begging for trouble. It can't be Mr. George, right?

After thinking it over, with Mr. George's obsessed mind, what wouldn't he be capable of?

Dylan couldn't fight his curiosity, so he turned on his computer and wanted to check if the person rigging the votes was just an ordinary technician hired by the students, or if it was someone else. After trying for a while, he couldn't break through the firewall.

Dylan pulled his hand away from the keyboard, realising that only a few people possessed such advanced hacking abilities. It was obvious who it could be.

The assistant wiped his sweat and tremblingly apologised to Yves. The opponent's skills were far superior to his.

Yves looked at the assistant's screen and felt a bit irritated.

How could his team's abilities fall short of George's?

As Isabelle and Joshua left the school, Yves's call came through. "Sweetheart, help me boost my votes."

Isabelle replied, "Isn't this a bit childish?"

Yves responded, "It's not about the votes anymore. It's about pride. I can't lose to George."

Isabelle retorted, "Not my problem."

Yves whined, "Sweetheart, you're breaking my heart."

"Are the fans of the white-haired handsome guy out of cash?"

"Only Mr. George's fans could do this, haha!"

"Hey, I lost the link. Can you find it?"

Students refreshed their phones to see the vote count, but it remained unchanged. At that moment, George was ahead of Yves by just one vote.

As they waited nervously, the voting link disappeared suddenly.

The students desperately combed through the group chat but found nothing.

"It looks like it's vanished. Was it hacked?"

"Who did it? Maybe the white-haired handsome guy's fans are behind this? Unable to rig the votes, they

chose to solve the problem directly That's quite remarkable!"

"So whether it's real votes or rigged, Mr. George wins. I'm totally satisfied with this result, haha!"

Finished

Thanks to Joshua's initiative, everyone was enjoying the poll throughout the afternoon. They remained oblivious to the feelings of the individuals involved, unsure if they were even aware of the competition. Anyway, they had a lot of fun.

When Isabelle arrived back at the mansion, she was greeted by another call from Yves.

Yves expressed considerable dissatisfaction over the phone. "Sweetheart, before you deleted the link, you could have at least increased my votes. I was only one vote behind."

Yves felt frustrated with narrowly missing out by only one vote.

Isabelle responded, "Ask Jim to file a lawsuit for you."

Later that night, Joshua was engrossed in his studies, when Isabelle performed acupuncture on Instructor Dittman.

Following Instructor Dittman's departure, Joshua fixed his gaze on Isabelle, who carefully returned the needle to its case.

Sensing his attention, Isabelle inquired, without lifting her eyes, "What's on your mind?"

Joshua asked, "Who taught you?"

Isabelle answered, "A deceased friend."

"How long did he teach you?" Joshua continued.

Isabelle replied, "Given my age, how long do you think?"

Joshua shifted his attention back to his computer. "Never mind then."

As Isabelle finished packing up the needles, she walked over to Joshua and glanced at his notes. She noticed a faint bruise peeking out from Joshua's collar.
