K typed, [Let me say it again. I’m not an uncle!]Alden asked, [Does Dark Net organize the Challenge Duel every year?]K replied, [Hey, why are you interested in it now? I asked you to be the ringmaster last year, but you turned me down.]Alden responded with, [Just say yes or no.]K then typed, [Yes, it has already started this year.]One minute later, a notification popped up on Dark Net’s system.[The Supreme Hacker, Sir Daugherty, is challenging the Bronze Hacker, Harold Who Loves Milk.]K said, [D*mn it! You’re actually challenging a Bronze hacker. You’ve embarrassed the Supreme hackers! Sir Daugherty! Hey, Sir Daugherty, don’t go away. Come back here and talk to me!]But Alden directly went offline.If he stood against George in person, he would not be able to explain it to his mother.Therefore, they had to have a man-to-man showdown on Dark Net.“Beep! Beep!”George suddenly received a message in his invisible account.He frowned and clicked on it. It was a notific
“It’s you! You killed my son!”The middle-aged woman suddenly rushed toward Adina and instantly grabbed her by the collar.She raised another hand and attempted to slap Adina’s face.Adina frowned.She calmly raised her hand and grabbed the middle-aged woman’s wrist before she turned her hand back and suppressed the woman. Adina had her hands locked.“Who are you?”Adina’s voice was cold, and her eyes were filled with contempt.The middle-aged woman’s wrists were pressed against her own back, and she could not move at all. She broke down and cried, “It’s you! You killed my son! You instigated my son to hit the boy, but you were afraid that my son would testify against you, so you assassinated him! You little b*tch! Give me back my son! Give me back my son!”The woman cried out loud.The surrounding people kept talking about it.“I heard about this accident from my family. The driver hit a boy and escaped, but he ended up dead the next day.”“It was a hit and run. Doesn’t he
The car that had hit Harold the other day was actually part of a planned accident.The police and members of the Winters family had searched for him in the city, but the driver’s car had fallen into the moat. By the time they discovered him, rigor mortis had set in.The police were highly concerned about the case, and they were still searching for clues.“My son was kind and timid. He would never go and harm someone! It’s her! She gave my son a lot of money and instructed him to commit the crime! My poor son! He died just like that!”The police interrogated the woman sternly. “You mentioned that Ms. Daugherty went to see your son. When exactly did it happen, and where was it?”“It was at about 9.00 pm, right in front of my house.” The middle-aged woman covered her mouth and cried. “I didn’t see her, but my neighbor saw her.”The police looked at Adina. “What were you doing at about 9.00 pm that night?”Adina chuckled. “I was on the phone with a pianist, Mr. Albert. You can check
Adina just remained silent when she heard Mdm. Daugherty’s muttering.Dew and her led two different lives. She would never be able to live peacefully with Dew.She opened her mouth and softly said, “Grandma, I met a boy the other day. He said that he was Dew’s—” Crashh!A loud crash suddenly came from the second floor. Broken glass pieces were scattered around, and some fell from the second floor to the lawn in the courtyard.Adina frowned. “What happened?”However, Mdm. Daugherty seemed to be used to it. “Whenever Dew loses her temper, she throws things. I wonder who made her angry this time. Addy, you quarrel with Dew whenever the two of you meet. It’d be better if you don’t stay for dinner.”Adina nodded. She stood up, walked over, and raised her head slightly. She could see Dew’s room.She furrowed her brows with dissatisfaction before she slowly walked up to the second floor.Meanwhile, Dew was not holding back. She raised her hand and threw a vase beside her to the floo
Then, she sent him a voice message.“George, my friend sent me this video. The middle-aged woman in the video is the mother of the culprit who hit Harold. If the culprit’s mother is telling the truth, then Adina has to be behind it!”That morning, George had a course to attend.He was reading a book in his study when his phone started vibrating.He narrowed his eyes and looked at it, spotting Adina’s name.Perhaps Harold was too invested in Adina. Perhaps Adina had a grudge against their mother. Perhaps it was because of other reasons. Whatever it was, George was highly interested in everything that was related to Adina.Previously, he would never answer any call or text message from Dew whenever he was working or studying.This time, however, he tapped open the message, and the video automatically played.After the video finished playing, Dew sent him another voice message. “George, Adina did this. You have to get justice for Harold!”George pursed his lips and attempted to t
When George heard Dew’s voice, his frown deepened. “I’ve seen it.”“George, Adina has made her move on Harold, and you’ll be the next. We can’t just sit and wait for death!” Dew gritted her teeth and said, “You have to think of a way to chase that b*tch, Adina, out of Sea City!”When George heard the term “b*tch”, he felt disgusted.He did not know why he felt that way.He took a deep breath. “Mom, stop it.”“What?” Dew was stunned.“I said, please stop before you go too far. It’s obvious that this video is self-directed. If I can see it, Dad can too,” George said coldly. “If you still want Dad to have a good impression of you, please don’t get involved in this anymore.”Dew instantly clenched her fists.Did her plan, which had been carefully constructed, get exposed so easily? How was it possible?How could it be?George, I didn’t direct that scene. My friend sent me the video.” Dew still wanted to give it one last shot. “George, you’re smart. Why would I lie to you? I r
When did he say that he wanted to treat Adina to a meal?However, since Harold had mentioned it, he would appear stingy about paying for a meal if he denied it.Duke nodded and nonchalantly said, “If you’re free, please come to the Winters family villa for dinner.”As soon as he said that, Adina noticed a bright glint in Melody’s eyes.She still had not figured out why her daughter liked Duke so much.After Melody called Duke “Dad” the other day, she no longer spoke.Adina actually hoped that Melody could spend more time with Duke, but she was also worried that if they spent too much time together, Melody would keep calling him “Dad.”At that time, she would feel awkward.When Mr. Brown noticed how silent Adina was, he thought that she did not want to go, so he immediately spoke to help. “Ms. Daugherty, the chef bought some fresh prawns and crabs early in the morning. He even bought some chicken to make some chicken soup. I guess the soup should be ready by now. Having some chi
Dew was furious.She was the young masters’ mother in the Winters family. She was the future mistress of the Winters family. How could Adina replace her and stand beside Duke?Why was she the one being kicked out?“Ms. Daugherty, the young master has just recovered, so he can’t go through an emotional episode. Please leave for now.” Mr. Brown bowed slightly while he advised her respectfully.Dew looked at Duke.That man did not look at her at all.If she continued to stay there, it would make her more embarrassed.When Dew thought about it, she turned around and left, while Mr. Brown quickly followed her.Adina turned around slightly and stared at Dew’s back.Mr. Brown was unexpectedly respectful toward Dew as if he was facing his master.But Adina also could not be bothered with it.She bent down, carried Harold, and gently said, “Harold, it was wrong of you to act like that.”After Dew left, Harold transformed from a furious lion cub to an obedient kitten. He blinked and
