Chapter 116: Chapter 116

Chapter 116 into the passenger seat. Luke Alice ignored Luke’s call. She had nothing to say to them. She got tapped on the window.“Alice, don’t take Brother’s words to heart.”

Her expression was cold.“I don’t take irrelevant people seriously.”

Irrelevant? Luke felt a sharp pang of pain. He stammered, “Alice, Brother’s always been like that, prideful. You embarrassed him in public; that’s why he’s angry. We’re family! Must we do this?” Alice laughed.“Family? We severed ties. We’re not family.

Pretend we’re strangers if we meet again.”

Jack sped away, giving Luke no chance to speak. Luke sat on the ground, dejected, trying to message Alice, only to realize she’d blocked him. He regretted his words. Ethan stormed out.“Where’s Alice? She embarrassed me in public! I’ll teach her a lesson!”

“Brother, she’s gone. We failed her; she left because she was hurt. We owe her.” “You’re defending her? She’s spoiled by you and Luke. She’s with that nurse, right? I’ll destroy him; he’s nothing! I can crush him!” Ethan was furious.

Luke, watching Ethan leave, called Luke.“Brother Two, it’s bad! Alice won Outstanding Youth, but she publicly severed ties with the family. Brother’s furious; he wants to harm Alice and that nurse.

Luke rushed out of bed.“I’m coming. Stop Brother! Don’t hurt Alice!”

The doctor protested, “Mr. Windham, you’re still under treatment.”

Luke yanked out his IV, leaving the hospital without changing. He kept calling Alice, but she didn’t answer. He felt a sharp pain in his stomach. “Alice, where are you? Brother’s lost it. Don’t go home.

Getting out of the car, Alice saw Luke’s message and frowned. “They’ll never understand respect.”

Jack saw the message and his eyes hardened. “Leaving?”

“No. If we’re severing ties, let’s do it properly.” She looked determined. “I can handle this myself.”

“Are you sure?” Jack’s face was grim; the Winds were relentless.

Alice’s gaze was cold.“Yes. Let’s make them see clearly.” She had a plan.“Can I use your computer?”

Alice sat down and hacked into Lu Corp.’s website. In her past life, an inside man leaked company secrets, almost bankrupting Lu Corp. She’d fixed the system vulnerabilities and found the traitor. The firewall’s source code was hers, to prevent future breaches. This time, she’d reclaim her contribution.

Jack watched her resolute expression from the doorway, not interrupting. He didn’t know her plan, but if she couldn’t handle it, he would.

A furious knocking interrupted her.

She smirked.“Finally.”

She looked at Jack.“Should you hide?”

He raised an eyebrow.“Am I so shameful?”

“No, but Brother’s coming to cause trouble, and he might hit you.

first.”

Chapter 11 She pushed him into his room. “I’ll handle this myself.”

Jack reluctantly agreed.

Alice opened the door to find Luke, not Ethan! Her expression was cold.“Why are you here?” Luke, pale, was in a wheelchair.“I stalled Brother. Leave with me!”

Alice stepped back.“I’m not going anywhere.”

“Alice, don’t be stubborn! Brother’s furious; he’ll do anything. Come with me; I’ll explain.”

“No need to explain. I’m severing ties; it’s not a joke.”

Luke’s face paled.“Alice, we’re family! Don’t let a misunderstanding ruin everything.” He couldn’t believe she’d actually sever ties.

He panicked after her public announcement.

Luke pleaded, “Alice, I’m sorry. Give me a chance!”

Alice scoffed.“Spare the hypocrisy. I don’t care.”

“How dare you talk to your brother like that? He rushed here without surgery! Look at yourself!” Ethan emerged from the elevator, his face stern.“I gave you a chance, but now I’ll teach you a lesson!”

Alice raised an eyebrow.“I severed ties. But since you’re still so arrogant, I have a gift for your before I leave.”

“Scared now? Too late! Unless you break up with that nurse, kneel and apologize to Chloe, and reconcile, I won’t hold. you accountable.”

Alice found this laughable.“Brother, remember who wrote Lu Corp.’s firewall source code? Ethan hesitated.“Why are you asking?

Don’t think your involvement in a game gives you the right to interfere!”

His secretary rushed over.“Boss, the internal system is under attack; the firewall has collapsed; confidential information might leak!”

Ethan looked at Alice. “What did you do? How did you do that?”

Luke sadly reminded him, “Brother, Alice wrote the source code. Don’t you remember?”
