Ewan was a few miles away from his house when he received a call from the operations manager of his company.
Ewan looked at his wristwatch. Why was the man calling this late? Annoyance reared its head, but he pushed it aside. This was a first. It must surely be an emergency.
He finally conceded, and picked the call. "Mr. Suarez, what is the issue?"
There was so much heavy breathing and tension at the other side of the phone that Ewan sat up on his seat and asked his driver to increase the car's speed so that he could get home on time. There was trouble. He knew it.
"Mr. Suarez, make a report or get out of my phone. I don't have time for this." He ordered, after waiting in vain for the manager to speak.
"I'm sorry sir. I just didn't know how to break the news to you. As you know, we had fortified our systems last year, after the last hack-in, with the best tools. But all those efforts were nullified tonight."
