"Let me check." Jimmy decided to test the weights as well. In the end, he was left stunned.Everyone turned to look at him, wondering why he had such a reaction. Jimmy tried picking up Riley's and Gaby's bags, and he was a little embarrassed. "Mine seems to be the lightest..."Linus and Alex also attempted to lift them. They, too, were surprised. Jimmy's backpack was significantly lighter!"It's almost like there's nothing in this one… Captain, are you playing favorites here?" Linus exclaimed."He's a special tech talent, only here because of his hacking skills," Matthew explained. Jimmy was technically too young to join the organization, being under seventeen. However, due to his hacking skills, the organization made an exception and allowed him in. This was more of physical conditioning for him, and he would undergo more intensive training in a couple of years."Cyn is also a special tech talent!""That's right! Cynthia's hacking skills are even better than mine."They d

While Cynthia was deeply engaged in her task, several tech experts gathered around, observing her progress. Ignoring their presence, Cynthia focused on the screen, her fingers dancing across the keyboard.Hours passed slowly.After two painstaking hours, Cynthia was still at it. Not well-versed in this field, Matthew turned to the nearby tech experts and asked, "How's she doing?""She's much more skilled than the previous kid who attempted this. If we were facing her one-on-one, we wouldn't stand a chance," one of them sincerely praised, feeling a little nervous.Matthew was taken aback. Was she really that good?"I can't break through it in a short time. Though there are minor flaws, it's practically impossible for the average person." Cynthia stopped her efforts after thoroughly assessing their security defense system and turned to address them."Can you do it?" Matthew inquired. Cynthia glanced at the people behind her before responding to Matthew, "It'll take time.""How l

"Thirty minutes," Cynthia admitted. It was challenging but quite comprehensive. However, if she took it seriously, it would not take long. After all, this was pure hacking without anyone intercepting or acting as an opponent. It would have been much more challenging if someone had tried to distract her during the process.Matthew seemed somewhat surprised. "So, what about the two hours you spent earlier?""I was taking it slow," Cynthia said. Although it was a security system meant for testing, it still represented their hard work. If it were breached immediately, it would not be appropriate. Of course, Cynthia had also studied their defense system. Since the test version was this robust, the official one would be no problem. Besides her, no one could break into it."Next time, we'll arrange for you to compete with them. You'll attack, and they'll defend. Let's see how long it takes," Matthew proposed.Cynthia agreed.As they continued talking, they reached the training ground. Ri

It turned out that Matthew, despite his occasional pranks, was a man of his word when it came to serious matters. He had Cynthia train for an extra hour to optimize the training's effectiveness. Then, he took her to the mess hall for lunch.Unbeknownst to the others, this was a privilege awarded to high-ranking members. When training or other commitments interfered with their lunchtime, they could dine separately.Cynthia was surprised as she stared at the food before her. "Let's eat," Matthew said. He valued Cynthia greatly as she was the first recruit to excel in training and possessed exceptional hacking skills.Cynthia nodded and began to eat. The two of them ate in silence. After finishing, Cynthia finally spoke, "Captain.""Hmm?" Matthew responded."The planned challenge you mentioned... It's scheduled for our rest day, right?" Cynthia asked, her voice tinged with unease.Matthew continued walking beside her, casually responding, "Afraid I'll make you do extra training af

Various types of insects..."Is this even edible?" Jimmy pursed his lips, looking skeptical."Of course! In wilderness missions or survival situations, we sometimes have to eat things worse than this. At least these are deep-fried and have some flavor," David chimed in.Jimmy tried to imagine himself eating one of those bugs... but decided it was best not to.Meanwhile, Cynthia and the others were still running at full tilt. As David had mentioned earlier, they were all from well-off families, accustomed to a life of luxury. Bugs were not something they had encountered at the dinner table, let alone thought of eating.Even Cynthia, who was generally not a picky eater, struggled to come to terms with it."Slow down, you guys," Alex gasped, thoroughly exhausted. He tried to negotiate with Linus, who was just ahead of him, "I'm allergic to protein, so I can't eat Meal Set 2. Can we switch places?"Linus, however, was not buying it and retorted, "Well, I'm allergic to the way those

"Are you sure you want to share?" Matthew walked over.The group was stunned, not replying to him.Matthew scanned their faces one by one and instructed Linus, "Divide your plate into six portions and give each of them one.""No need!" Alex was the first to refuse."We were just joking earlier. We weren't serious," Riley said, uneasy about the bugs.The rest nodded in agreement.Linus grumbled under his breath, cursing his less-than-loyal friends. Eventually, he accepted the task.In the end, Linus bore the burden himself. Unable to stomach the insects, he had not eaten much at lunch. When he left the cafeteria, he was starving."Want me to go with you to the convenience store to buy some snacks? The afternoon training is going to be tough, and you won't make it on an empty stomach," Alex whispered to him."Whose fault is it?" Linus glared at him."Mine," Alex admitted readily. He looked around, could not spot Matthew, and urged, "Come on, my treat."Linus hesitated for a mo

Matthew handed the bottle of water to Alex and said, "Take a sip and catch your breath.""Yes, Captain!" Alex eagerly responded. He took the water and drank it sip by sip, instantly feeling refreshed and less tired.After finishing the water, Matthew led him to sit down nearby, and they chatted for a while. During their conversation, Alex suddenly felt guilty for not living up to such a good captain.Determined to make amends, he resolved to train harder in the future.Seeing that Alex had rested enough, Matthew cleared his throat and asked, "Feeling better?""Yes," Alex nodded."Good, now let's continue the punishment. You have 45 minutes to complete a 10-kilometer weighted cross-country run. If you're not back by two thirty, tomorrow's training will be doubled," Matthew said, checking his watch.Alex's eyes widened in shock. They had just been casually chatting, and now he was suddenly tasked with another grueling run."You have 44 minutes and 50 seconds left," Matthew remind

Mitchell, who had also never seen Linus work so hard, calmly commented, "We'll find out when he takes a break later.""Where's Alex?" Riley scanned the area, slightly puzzled.The others on the training ground were also looking around, unable to spot Alex.It was not until more than half an hour later that they finally saw Alex approaching, looking utterly dejected."What happened? You were gone for so long," Riley, who had just finished a round of training, asked as he walked over. "Captain had me do a heavy-weight run," Alex replied, his breath still uneven. He had resolved never to trust Matthew so easily again.Riley was puzzled but refrained from further questioning, continuing the afternoon's training tasks.Throughout the entire afternoon, the group trained diligently without supervision, unaware that Matthew had been observing them from a distance.During a break, David approached Matthew and, observing the group's serious training, engaged in a casual conversation.

Isabella glared at Nick. He actually betrayed her! Caught off guard by Luther's honesty, Nick quickly explained, "Don't look at me like that. Luther forced me to do it. If I didn't agree to his request, he would've spilled my past to my current girlfriend.""Current girlfriend?" Isabella looked puzzled.Nick confessed honestly, "My new girlfriend."Isabella was at a loss for words. Nick was very handsome. His looks could rival top celebrities. Naturally, with his face and charisma, he had no shortage of admirers. That led to a habit of frequently changing girlfriends."I made my rules clear to her. No shady behavior allowed," Nick added quickly, sensing what Isabella was thinking.Hearing this, Isabella did not say much.A moment later, Luther, seeing that their conversation had wrapped up, took Isabella's hand and left. On the way back, he deliberately brought up the topic of proposals."What kind of proposal do you like?" Luther asked."Anything works," Isabella replied
Mr. Neal, Mrs. Neal's Gone With The Money Chapter 1501
There was a time when Isabella considered letting Luther propose to her. However, he had not shown any signs that he would or asked for her ring size. There was no need to overthink it; that fool probably had not even thought about it. Nonetheless, Isabella did not blame Luther. After all, she was well aware that everyone expressed love differently. Yet, that was also precisely why she wanted to propose to him, to make him understand just how much she cared."What's wrong?" Annie asked, concerned."I'm just worried," Isabella replied. The ring sizes had been a constant worry for her."Because of what you just mentioned?"Isabella nodded. "Yeah.""Why do you want to propose to him?" Annie looked toward a dark corner. "In most relationships, the boyfriend proposes to the girlfriend, right?""I want him to feel loved," Isabella answered simply.Luther was different from most people; he always suppressed his negative emotions and limited his freedom. He no longer wanted to restr

"No," Luther declined; he still wanted to be the one proposing to her."Okay," Joshua agreed readily.Luther nodded, letting his mind wander. In the following days, Isabella kept checking on the progress, each time being informed that there was no opportunity to measure Luther's finger.In the blink of an eye, three days passed.Cynthia and Matthew had a conversation with Isaiah.Due to prior preparation, Isaiah handled Cynthia and Matthew's questions smoothly. Although they knew Isaiah had not been entirely truthful, based on his attitude toward Sandra, they agreed to the marriage without excessive probing into his relationship with her.As for Isabella, she waited for a few days but had not received any news. Frustrated, she decided to go to Jiverton herself to find Luther.When Joshua heard about her plan, he asked her to give him a bit more time. He assured her he would have the sizes by next Friday at the latest."Really?" Isabella was worried about running out of time.
Mr. Neal, Mrs. Neal's Gone With The Money Chapter 1499
"Okay." Isaiah already had a plan in mind.After discussing the matter, the two did not say much more. In the following two days, Cynthia and Matthew stayed home while Isabella prepared the details and processes for the proposal.However, after going through the general plan, Isabella suddenly realized a problem. She did not know Luther's ring size. How could she prepare a ring for the proposal without knowing the size?Realizing this issue, she immediately thought of flying to Jiverton to find out but hesitated due to Luther's caution. If she returned so soon after just coming back, he would surely be suspicious. After much contemplation, she came up with a solution—Joshua.When Isabella called, Joshua happened to be having a meal with Luther."I'm not busy, what's up?""I need your help with something," Isabella said, trusting Joshua's abilities, "but Luther can't know about it."Joshua instinctively glanced at Luther.Luther was confused. He glanced at Joshua's phone and

"Quit the act," Matthew said to Isabella, "It's too bad."Isabella stayed quiet. Matthew bluntly stated, "Isaiah currently oversees the company, and the annual revenue has been consistently increasing under his management. He even took a few subsidiaries public.""And?" Isabella inquired."He has a talent for this," Matthew hinted, leaving Isabella puzzled as she struggled to keep up with Matthew's pace."He's barely in his twenties, so there's no rush to get married," Matthew explained. He saw through everything, understanding Isaiah well, adding, "If there were truly such a concern, he could easily establish a company under Sandra's name in the next few years, operate it until it goes public."With Isaiah's abilities and connections, starting a company and taking it public would be a simple task. After the IPO and proper management, Sandra's value would naturally rise. This would effortlessly 'shut their mouths'. Isabella wanted to say something, realizing her dad's words

"That depends on the secret he's keeping," Matthew responded immediately, taking the opportunity to tease Isaiah, "If it's something against our moral values, it'd be hard not to form an opinion, even if we try not to.""He's not that kind of person," Isabella defended Isaiah.Matthew did not respond but just sat there. Their father-son dynamic involved banter and teasing, but when it came down to it, they genuinely cared about each other."He's just worried that you might object to Sandra's background," Isabella continued to spin her tale convincingly.Cynthia and Matthew were confused, both staring at Isabella.Isabella felt a bit uneasy. Something seemed off with her parents' expressions. "What's wrong?""Are you sure Isaiah is worried about this?" Cynthia asked.Why was their beloved daughter so bad at lying? Not catching on, Isabella nodded, "Absolutely.""Setting aside the fact that we've always taught you not to treat people differently based on their family background

"Ah, I see." Isabella breathed a sigh of relief and purposely asked, "Is it possible that Isaiah got to know Sandra through Uncle Yves and Uncle Sean?""It's unlikely," Cynthia denied. Even though they had not arranged any blind dates or rushed Isaiah into marriage, given his personality, he would not seek an introduction from anyone."Whenever you have time, ask Isaiah to bring his girlfriend home," Cynthia said, truly wishing for her children to find happiness. Isabella agreed, "Sure.""Isabella," Cynthia suddenly spoke up.Putting away her plan book, Isabella responded, "Hmm?""Do you think I look stern?" Cynthia sounded gentler than usual, lacking the usual nonchalance.Having been accustomed to being herself, Cynthia found it a bit awkward to take on the role of an elder suddenly. If she left a bad impression on Sandra during their first meeting, it could easily jeopardize Isaiah's relationship."Not at all," Isabella spoke sincerely, looking at Cynthia affectionately. "Y

Isaiah had seen through their plans. He knew that his parents' friends enjoyed watching him banter with Matthew. Every time something was like this, they would eagerly make things difficult for him.Early the next morning, Mitchell and the others began implementing the plan. Initially, Matthew did not suspect anything and thought they genuinely had urgent matters to attend to and brought Cynthia back home first.Considering Luther's upcoming proposal, they decided not to travel the world but instead explored nearby cities. After Mitchell and the others called Matthew aside, Isabella approached Cynthia. Cynthia was surprised to learn about Isabella and Isaiah's plan."Aren't you afraid of getting in trouble?" Cynthia asked."Not at all," Isabella responded very directly, her mind focused on planning her and Luther's engagement. "Isaiah said he can handle this matter, so let's discuss the proposal first. I've thought about several options, but none seem good enough.""Okay," Cynth

Isaiah was surprised."Take her to shoot wedding photos first," Isabella suggested seriously. After giving it some thought, Isaiah said, "I'll ask her during dinner.""Why bother asking?" Isabella thought Isaiah's emotional intelligence was lacking, and Sandra's expectations were too low. "Just pick a few reputable studios and let her choose one she likes."During their conversation, Isabella noticed that Sandra was slightly anticipating a wedding, although she had refused for some unknown reason. If she was not truly opposed to weddings, there should not be an issue with pre-wedding photos."If you give it directly to her, she'll probably say she doesn't need it," Isabella coined. She could see through people and was quite clever.Isaiah clearly did not consider this possibility."Take a look at these studios. My friends suggested them," Isabella had already made the selections and recommended them to him. "Weren't you against my decision before?" Isaiah, not understanding h
