Chapter 118: Chapter 118

Chapter 118 Alice smirked at Luke’s moralizing. The guilt–trip again. But this time, she wouldn’t soften. Soon, nosy neighbors gathered, posting about it in the building’s group chat.

Alice, exasperated, opened the door.“Are you done?*

“Alice, you can hate me, but Luke’s sick. Show him some respect.”

A neighbor chimed in, “Young lady, you’re “Siblings shouldn’t hold grudges. What’s the big deal?” Luke said smugly, “Alice, did you hear what they said?” Alice’s face paled with anger.

heartless!

He’s your brother!”

Jack’s tone was sarcastic.“She’s the valedictorian, and her brothers want her to forgo Harvard. University and attend a local college with their adopted sister.”

The neighbors were shocked. What kind of brothers are they? Outrageous!” “Right? Harvard University and a local college aren’t comparable. They’re trying to ruin her!”

Luke’s face flushed.“You misunderstood.”

The neighbors shouted, “Leave her alone! Get lost! We don’t want leech brothers like you!”

Luke and Luke were chased away.

Alice was surprised by the neighbors‘ intervention. Closing the door, she turned to Jack. At the awards ceremony, I saw an ad for an Al–related investment conference in Peking. Is Gator’s company interested?”

“Lu Corp.’s firewall is famous in Peking. I didn’t know you wrote the code. How many hidden. talents do you have?” Alice remembered Luke’s company developing Al in her past life. It had become incredibly successful. She’d been involved in the development. This time, she would do it? herself.

Jack knew about this; he hadn’t expected her interest. “It’s a good project.”

“I think so too. Maybe the company will take off because of it.”

Secing Alice’s enthusiasm, Jack knew he’d support her.

That night, Alice streamed, in a good mood. She was ranked #1 in solo PvP and had stayed there. After the stream, she summarized key points.

Fans commented:“[Streamer], you’re a you’re a scholar and gaming god! So envious!”

“[Today was another day of jealousy. The Winds are probably even more jealous since their adopted daughter’s score was canceled for cheating.]”

Alice didn’t know what Chloe’s punishment would be. Li Hong’s death felt suspicious; she wondered if the police would uncover anything.

Alice said calmly, “Let’s not talk about unpleasant things today.” She didn’t want to discuss the Winds.

A huge wave of virtual gifts appeared–a donation extravaganza. Recognizing Luke’s ID, she he shouldn’t bother her. immediately banned him. Since they’d severed ties, Luke, kicked from the stream, felt a tremor in his hand as he paused the payment. He smiled bitterly, Alice was truly heartbroken.

He’d thought she was just angry. If only he’d realized “Bad news, Master Two Miss Chloe tried to kill herself. Master Six stopped her. She’s on her way to the hospital Luke quickly put down his phone. “Why would she try to kill herself?”

The butler said angrily, “The school didn’t punish her, but canceled her score. She couldn’t accept it. Master Two, you need to comfort her.”

Luke rubbed his temples.“What a mess! Alice didn’t worry me about her scores; she aced the exam The butler said, “Miss Chloe’s poor results were because Miss Alice made her sick. Now, her friend’s cheating has canceled her score. She can’t accept it.”

“Butler, everyone can discuss Alice’s scores, but you her was defective and almost affected her exam.”

The butler fell silent.

Luke felt increasingly guilty towards Alice.

Luke frowned.“Suicide solves nothing?”

up.

The Chloe hung her head. She hadn’t expected her score to be canceled. Alice was the valedictorian and going to Harvard University, while she had no score. The contrast was too harsh. After years of superiority over Alice, the sudden reversal was unbearable.

Luke comforted her.“Chloe, just repeat a year. Alice improved dramatically; you can too.” Hearing, Alice’s name made Chloe even angrier. She hadn’t really wanted to die; she’d just wanted sympathy, “Stop crying. Apply for a retake.” Luke didn’t like Chloe’s theatrics. He didn’t believe she was innocent.

The butler said, “Master Two, why not have Miss Alice retake the exam Luke was shocked.“What?”

“She’s brilliant. A year won’t matter. They can support each
