Chapter 167: Chapter 169

Chapter 169 Alice didn’t think she was “that” famous.

Jack’s eyelid twitched. He grabbed Mo. “This kid publicly challenged your sixth brother, trying to steal you for his team.”

“Oh, right. They had a big online fight.”

Alice looked at Jack.“He called you ‘brother‘? Are you related?”

“Yeah, we’re...ow!”

Mo’s words were cut short by a sharp pinch from Jack. He winced, glaring at Jack.“What was that for?!”

He’d been trying to make a good impression on his future sister–in–law. Why did Jack pinch. him?! Was that polite?!

Alice pointed at the two. You must be related. You have the same last name.”

Then, Alice remembered something. John Wilson and Jack were related? But John Wilson was a young master from the prestigious Wilson family in Washington!

Alice looked intently at Jack.“Why didn’t you mention your connection to the Wilson family?”

Jack stammered, slightly flustered. “We just share a surname.”

“Yeah, distant relatives. This kid’s my little bro. We met playing games, and then he became close with Jack.”

Garrett arrived, putting an arm around John Wilson, frantically hinting.

John Wilson, realizing Alice probably didn’t know Jack’s identity, said, “That’s right! Both of them are my brothers!”

Alice looked at the three men, men, saying nothing. All All three held their breath.

Alice nodded. I didn’t realize you were so close in real life. You never mentioned it.”

“We talked about it. My brother uses my account.”

Alice recalled something. She thought Jack’s account had been hacked. The person claimed to be Jack’s brother, right? It had been a while; her memory was fuzzy.

Realization dawned on Alice. She looked at Mo.“That account was really yours?” “Yep! The real deal!”

Alice’s emotions surged. Could the person from her past life have been John Wilson? Not Jack?

John Wilson sensed something was off.“What’s wrong? I only logged in once; my brother used it after that.”

“Nothing.”

Alice lowered her head. I’ll be right back. Bathroom.”

She hurried to the restroom, replaying her past encounters with that person in her mind. She’d always assumed it was Jack because their mannerisms and speech were similar. She’d never actually met the person but imagined him to be similar to Jack But the account belonged to John Wilson.

If she hadn’t met Jack, who would have been using that account?

Alice didn’t dare to think further.

Outside, John Wilson stood under a pillar, hands raised, like a scolded child.

He cautiously looked at Jack. “Brother.”

Jack raised an eyebrow.“Shut up!”

“Brother, I didn’t know she didn’t know! I’m innocent!”

Garrett explained, “Luckily, I came just in time. Little Lemon didn’t suspect anything.” “Brother, weren’t you and Sister–in–Law in a car accident? I saw a scar on her forehead.”

Jack glared at John Wilson, warning him.

won’t say anything! I’ve anything! I’ve always been tight–lipped!”

haven’t you blabbed about since we were kids?!”

Mo covered his mouth. I won’t “Tight–lipped? What secret Jack, losing his patience, looked at Garrett. “Don’t let anything slip.”

Garrett nodded. ‘I’ll be careful.”

John Wilson peeked out.“Brother, are you scared? Brother, have some confidence! Let me talk to her...”

Jack’s temples throbbed.

Garrett pulled John Wilson away.“John Wilson, you should leave. Don’t cause trouble.”

This unlucky kid might cause a disaster.

“I haven’t said goodbye to Sister–in–Law yet! I want to make a good impression!”

Jack kicked him.“Get lost!”

“Ow! You missed!”

John Wilson, clutching his backside, ran off.

Jack looked helpless.

Garrett patted Jack’s shoulder. “Why’s this kid back? Oh, right, the finals are at the city stadium. this weekend.”

That explained the kid’s sudden return.

Soon, Alice came out of the restroom..

She looked at the two men.“Where’s John Wilson?”

Jack’s eyelid twitched when she mentioned John Wilson.“He has dinner plans with friends.”

“Oh, I see. You know such amazing people. Why didn’t you say anything when he used your account?”

Faced with Alice’s question, Jack felt like he was on trial.

He pretended to be calm.“He’s amazing? I don’t think so.”

That was arrogant. John Wilson was a promising national team contender – highly talented, from a wealthy family, free from pressure and unfair treatment.

Chapter 169 Alice looked into Jack’s deep eyes. “You’re pretty amazing games Garrett quickly changed the subject. Little Lemon, there’s an Al exchange event tomorrow afternoon. Maple Leaf is invited. You should come. I just got the notice “Sure, I’ll be there.”

Jack said, “I’ll drive you back.”

“No, I already called cab.

7 Jack watched Alice leave.

It should be here See you tomorrow!”

Garrett sighed.“[Little Lemon suspects something, doesn’t she?]”

Jack watched the taxi drive away, his face half–hidden in shadow.

Back in the dorm, Alice lay in bed thinking about John Wilson’s account. Her mind was a whirlwind.

Many players had the same name. Maybe it wasn’t the same account; she’d just jumped to conclusions.

Alice barely slept.

The next day, she took her laptop to the place Garrett had mentioned, as she was the Al project lead.

She arrived early; the conference room was almost empty. She sat down and opened her laptop. She hadn’t finished preparing her materials last night due to the account incident. “Alice, you’re alone? Where’s Maple Leaf?”

Alice looked up and saw Chloe. They haven’t arrived yet. Did you bring what I asked for?”

Chloe whispered, “I’m working on it. I came here to join the project so I can get the data you need.”

“You need to hurry. If I don’t get the data before the bidding, I’ll release that video.”

Chloe’s face fell. Just then, Luke arrived.

Chloe nervously changed the subject.“[The finals are at the stadium this weekend. Will you go, Alice? Sixth Brother has tickets!]”

Alice saw Luke and played along.

“Of course.

But I have Wilson tickets. John VIP seats reserved for me.

“You’re really joining the Ballers team?”

Luke’s face darkened at the mention of his rival team.

‘None of your business!”

Seeing the Maple Leaf team arrive, Alice stood and left the conference room..

Luke pursued her. “Alice, let’s talk!”

Chloe was about to leave when she saw Alice’s laptop left on the table, the screen still lit.

She paused, her eyes fixated on Alice’s laptop.

Without hesitation, she sat down in Alice’s seat. She took out her phone and photographed Alice’s files.

Chapter 160 “What are you doing?”

Chloe’s face turned pale when she saw Luke...
