Investigations into the company started on Friday afternoon. Those working at Meme Credit and some members at home manning the remote controls experienced their mouths agape.

“You have to call her,” chief technology officer Kimmy Lindsman suggested with strength. CEO Tizo Alvarez held his right hand on his chin. He spun around.

“If we must,” he replied with a sense of confidence and near devastation at the same time.

Alvarez looked at the screen as the little “bloop” sound broadcast Loreen in all her grandeur.

“I already know,” she intoned.

“What can we do?”

“She switched off her device and walked right into the c-suite. Alvarez reeled a bit. He then retained his bearing.

“Don’t worry. I passed through all of your security and office assistants. They allowed me to roll in here and tell you how you can save your business.”

“Thank you….”

“So, we know Wilmington, Delaware holds the crown of being the credit card capital of the country. That’s why you were targeted. The weak usury laws of the state allow for people to use interest in the trillions everyday on the WiSE. This can be done by reversing the steps already taken. Install new software.”

“Reversing? Businesswoman, you mean we have to roll back every security measure we’ve already implemented?”

“It’ll be like a kid removing their tooth from an apple,” she replied.

Alvarez shook his head and scoffed. “You know what you’re talking about.”

“I do.” She smiled slightly.

“Okay, so we’re looking at undoing the last few moments and introducing your suggestion of new software. Where do we get that?”

“I’ve already introduced a digital service for all of your employees to download. They should be tapping in the codes right now.”

Alvarez smiled for the first time in hours.

“Thank you.”

“You’re welcome.”
