Chapter 201
Alice sensed Jack’s identity was shrouded in mystery. After her question, he remained silent. She probed, “Can't |
ask?” Was his job classified?
“Ahem, Little Lemon, that’s not what | meant. You should ask him. | have a meeting Gotta go!* Andrew Yates
hung up, relieved. Little Lemon was sharp. He called Jack immediately, to warn him. He'd done enough-taking
the fall for keeping a college student was more than enough. Alice considered Andrew Yates’s words. Jack's past
job was probably shady. Mysterious. She checked the news; the buzz had died down. Someone had suppressed
it. The stock drop was probably giving Ethan a headache.
Feeling better, she opened her computer to fix the Al issues.
A message popped up from the black Danielet. A message from an admin: “Someone wants to buy your firewall
system from a while back. They're offering two million to rewrite one for their company.”
Easy money. Alice replied:“Five million.”
The admin replied after a while:“They agreed. They want you to personally install and test it to prove it can
withstand attacks, then you'll get the rest. Plus one million annually for maintenance and emergency fixes.” This
company was frequently attacked.

“Okay. What's the company name?”
“Confidential. You'll find out when you go to install it.”
So secretive. They'd made enemies. Alice didn’t press; anonymity was important in the black Danielet. She
understood. As long as they paid.
Alice took the job. Who would turn down easy money?
She continued coding the Al project. After lunch, she went to Maple Leaf. But there were bodyguards outside her
floor. Who was here?
The representative rushed over.“Alice, the Alices are here-your brothers. They look angry.”
Two brothers?
As Alice approached her office, Ethan emerged. “Alice, | thought you could hide forever. You think someone
protects you, and | can’t find you?”
Alice saw Luke inside. But Andrew Yates wasn’t there.
She entered her office, frowning.“What do you want?” They cstraight to the office! But Ethan now knew
Andrew Yates owned the company, so he wouldn't dare touch it. Ethan was furious. “I'm here to settle accounts
with Andrew Yates. | know you're involved in that media exposure.” He'd been humiliated by Andrew Yates last
night. The news about Chloe and Luke had dropped his company’s stock. Alice and Andrew Yates were clearly
connected.
Alice smirked.“Do you have proof?”
“Do | need proof?”
Alice mocked him. “But you always demanded proof for anything involving me. No proof meant it was my fault,
not Chloe's. No proof meant | swindhamed her. Now you want proof?”

Edhan was enraged. He pointed at her “Stop with the excuses! Besides the exposure, my company’s firewall
keeps getting attacked! Did you do that?”
Alice laughed “Looks like you have many enemies, all vultures.
“Who else could do this?” Ethan was ready to strike but hesitated, meeting, Alice's dark eyes, He touched his
bruised arm from yesterday,
Alice saw him restrain himself. Violence seemed to work on him. At least he wouldn't dare attack her again.
Luke coughed. “Alice, Brother's just anxious. Don’t take it to heart.”
Alice was impatient.“You’re not welchere. Leave!”
“Alice, | won't leave without an expression. You hacked my company’s system. Did you steal trade

secrets?”
“expression, huh?” Alice opened Andrew Yates’s computer, her slender fingers flying across the keyboard. Code
filled the screen, quickly hacking into Ethan's company system. Luke was surprised by Alice's skills. She wrote
code and hacked into Ethan's system-a highly secured system-on the fly, He hadn't realized how talented she
was. He'd underestimated her. Ethan sneered.“Alice, fix my system.”
Ethan's secretary panicked, “Boss, the entire system has crashed. Security is compromised!” “What?!” Ethan
looked at Alice.“Stop! What did you do?” He thought she was fixing the system. Alice stopped, cold and
calm.“You wanted an expression?”
“That's not an expression!”
“If I hacked your company, wouldn't it be more significant? This is what it would look like. Get it?”
Ethan was sweating. He shouted at his secretary, “What are you looking atfor? Get IT to fix it!” A bunch of
idiots!
Alice watched Ethan frantically trying to fix the problem, but it wouldn't be easy. He cto her, his hands on
the desk, eyes
bloodshot.
“Alice, fix my system! This is Alice tilted her head.”Beg me.”
