After Irvin had finished the work, it was time for Elise to reap the victory. Then, she sat in front of the laptop and sent a message to KO’s account using Cloud. As promised, you have to do as I say. Now tell me, where is the evidence of Gale committing the crime?’
Since KO’s laptop was being destroyed by Irvin, he could only use his phone. When he saw that Alicia was online, he immediately stayed alert. ‘I will give you the evidence straight away.”
Looking at his text, Elise thought that it was hilarious and sighed at the same time. ‘Is this your so-called professional ethics?
“Stop blabbering. Do you want it or not?’ ‘Yes! Don’t mind if I do! It’s Gale’s payback to have encountered such a hacker who has no boundaries.
‘However, I have one condition. I want to meet you in person. Otherwise, not only will I refuse to help you, I will destroy all the evidence. KO wanted to see who the person was who was able to defeat a top-ranked hacker like him.
Seeing his text, Elise thought for a moment and accepted his request. ‘Alright. Wait for my words. Then, before KO could reply, she immediately went offline. Since she was in a semi-retired situation, Irvin would be the best to show off his face.
At this moment, Elise was in a good mood. can go to Alexander and Irvin for all my troubles. This is just such a good life. On the other hand, KO waited for a moment before he was sure Elise was offline. Then, he lay on the chair and closed his eyes.
Ever since this person had appeared online, KO was being strung along by the person. Although he hated this feeling, he couldn’t get away from it. Before he had met the person, he had an uneasy feeling in his gut.
Will I be dragged into these matters again after retiring for such a long time? Although being a hacker earned lots of money, we also offended many people. We are so close to death every day and would die anytime. I wonder if I will be able to adapt to that lifestyle again.
The next day, Alicia’s pictures were posted in Mesdra’s biggest magazine studio. Moreover, many people reposted it on the Internet, and it went viral on several famous social apps. With the identity as the lady of the Heidelberg Family, some unscrupulous marketing accounts posted pictures that were not being. pixelated to increase exposure.
At that moment, many netizens criticized this woman who had just been humiliated. ‘We know what kind of girl she is to be appearing at such a place, right? Who dresses like that other than a sl*t?’
“Isn’t she seducing men by dressing so skimpily?” ‘Those wealthy ladies sure know how to have fun. Anyone who wants her can have her. I will never want such a woman!’ ‘She still has the heart to party when her brother is missing. What a b*tch!”
Only a few of those righteous people saw the painful expression on Alicia’s face and decided to voice out for her. However, their voices were soon drowned by the crimination since there weren’t many of them. Slowly, as long as anyone tried to defend Alicia, they would be criticized too.
In such a scenario, Clara defended Alicia. ‘Open your eyes and look who the victim is. Stop talking nonsense. No matter how much you wear, it is never a reason to be harassed by others. Okay?’
Along with her message, she sent a photo of al middle finger. It was always unexpected to see how malicious humans could be. Most people didn’t care about the truth; all they cared about was how exciting the news was. Stepping a wealthy lady into the mud could satisfy those b*stards who hated the rich. They didn’t care to find out the truth about Clara but decided to spread rumors.
Soon, the Griffith Family heard about the news. When Paul saw those pictures, he was enraged and tore the newspaper apart. “It has to be Gale behind this. I am going to kill him!”
Jamie used all his strength to stop Paul. “If you were to expose yourself at this moment, everything we did would go to waste! I’ll go! I’ll take good care of your sister!”
For the sake of the overall situation, Paul could only stay in the Griffith Residence as he waited for Jamie to check on Alicia’s condition. This was the first time Jamie had entered the Heidelberg Residence.
The enormous mansion was bright. Each of the servants was busy working, and no one cared about anything other than their work. Hence, Jamie felt like he had entered a no-man’s-land. as he arrived at Alicia’s room without the need to hide.
Since the door was half-closed, he pushed it open and frowned when he smelled the damp scent. Although it was daytime, the curtains were closed, and no lights were on. The room was quiet, seemingly as if no one was there. However, Jamie had asked the servant before and knew that Alicia was just in the house.
Then, he found the light switch and tried to switch it on to look clearly. However, as soon as the light went on, a woman shrieked in the corner of the room. “No! Not the lights!”
When Jamie heard the voice, he knew that it was Alicia. As soon as he turned it off, he followed the sound and went toward a corner near the curtains. Then, he slowly crouched down and saw that Alicia was hiding there. She curled herself into a ball and was shivering. If he were to hear closely, he would even hear her teeth chattering.
“Alicia, it’s me, Jamie. Don’t be afraid.” Since Jamie was afraid that he would have frightened Alicia, he softened his voice as he spoke. “Jamie?” Alicia called out softly and raised her head in the dark.
“Yes, it’s me.” Jamie smiled, trying to let her relax. However, in that split second, Alicia suddenly had a mental breakdown. “Go away! I don’t want to see you! Leave!”
“It’s okay, Alicia. I won’t hurt you. I’m here for you, and you can trust me. Come now, let’s get you off the floor. You’ll catch a cold.” Jamie coaxed her.
Then, he tried to get Alicia up the floor, but she mustered up the strength to push him out of her room. “Leave! I don’t need your pity!” Since Jamie wouldn’t fight back, Alicia easily pushed him out of her room.
Bang! Bang! “Don’t hurt yourself, Alicia. It’s all over now. Don’t look at what they say on the Internet. Those people don’t know what they are talking about. If you were to believe them, you would have fallen into their trap!” Jamie didn’t dare to say those words straightforwardly since he was unsure what had happened.
However, it wasn’t her fault, even if she was taken advantage of. It was those b*stards who should be rotten in hell and not the victim.
“Please, I’m begging you. Just leave!” Alicia leaned against the door painfully. Then, she slowly slid down and sat on the ground as she cried her heart out. “I’m disgusting. You will be dirty if you stand close to me. Just please, leave me alone!”
“What are you talking about? You’re the apple of my eye. It was those bad guys who had done something wrong, not you. Don’t punish yourself with others’ mistakes!” As Jamie spoke, he kept turning the door handle, trying to open the door. However, all he could hear was Alicia’s sobbing.
At this moment, Gale went up the stairs and saw Jamie standing by the hallway. Then, he took the initiative to blame Jamie. “How dare you come inside when you have ruined the Heidelbergs!”
