Chapter 124
Alice looked at Luke. “I just want to be away from you.”
“No matter how far you go,
how far you go, you’re still
Alice smirked coldly. “We severed ties.”

Wind. You’re always our sister.”
Luke sighed, watching Alice leave. I almost forgot; Alice’s a popular streamer. Her followers exploded during the summer, and her stream data is excellent. She wants to join the national.
team!”
Luke was regretful.“Brother Two, it’s my fault. I hurt Alice, causing her to join TikTok.” He regretted his actions. The team had failed without her, barely functioning. His pride had been ridiculous.
Luke said dejectedly, “Brother Two, 1 finally understand. It’s not that Alice needs us; we need her.” Luke shook his head. He regretted his actions too.
Alice met Gator outside. He was wearing a baseball cap and a mask.
“Gator, are you worried about paparazzi?”
“No, I have a cold. Don’t want to infect you.” He was actually afraid of being recognized. Alice said, “You said you had diarrhea. Need to go to the hospital?”
“No. some medicine will do.

I don’t know. Little Lemon, we’ve become close. Let me me

some advice.”
“Little Lemon, you’re young. In university, you’ll have romantic relationships; you’ll meet-
you like. You’ll see
how childish your current feelings are.”
someone
Alice said, “I know. See you later.”
Feeling awkward, she got into a taxi, her mind filled with Jack. Even Gator saw her feelings for Jack. She felt embarrassed. She needed to move on.
Alice arrived at her new apartment; fully furnished and ready to move in. The security was excellent.
She started her stream. After the game, she announced, “Fans, I’ll be busy with school. Streams will be on weekends; I’ll go live occasionally during the week.” She had much to do. Streaming was only for money. She didn’t need that anymore, and she needed to focus on her studies and the AI project with Gator.
Before ending the stream, she noticed Jack’s profile picture was gray. She felt a pang of loneliness. She wasn’t used to not having him around. Habits were indeed terrifying.
The next day, Gator called. “The AI project has a new branch office. I’ll send the address. You can familiarize yourself with it tomorrow. We’ll share the profits!”
“Okay.” Alice got ready and
and went to the address. The building was impressive. The manager introduced her to the team.“This is Alice Lu, the AI developer. She’s
young but
incredibly talented.”
Alice felt nervous. “Alice, don’t leave after work. We have a business dinner, you need to attend
“Okay.
At the dinner, the manager said, “We’re meeting with Wilson Corp’s investment department. If they ask technical questions, Miss Alice, please answer them.”
Alice nodded; it wouldn’t be difficult.
Ethan and Chloe, The world Was small.
Entering the restaurant, she saw Ethan
She pretended not to see them, avoiding a confrontation with her colleagues present.
Ethan scoffed. Not even a greeting now?”
Chloe said, “Alice, you’re working for Maple Leaf, competing with Brother Two’s company. Your betrayed the family! This was good news for Chloe. Ethan would be furious. Ethan said coldly, “Chloe, ignore her. She has nothing to do with us. Maple Leaf is insignificant.” Alice said coldly, “Wasn’t Lu Corp. once insignificant?”
me!
Ethan’s face darkened.“Alice, you’re becoming increasingly defiant! Who told you to talk to me
like that?”
“We’re strangers. What’s wrong with my tone?”
Try saying that again.”
Chloe intervened.“Brother, don’t be angry. Alice’s still upset.” Then, she looked at Alice with a
smirk.“Alice, Brother’s triumphant
meeting with the Wilson
heir Corp
Alice pursed her lips.“We’ll see who Wilson Corp invests in.” She would fight for the opportunity. Ethan scoffed.“Alice, you’re naive. Brother has a good relationship with Wilson Corp. This meeting is a formality.”
Chloe, having experienced city life, knew how backward her hometown was. She wouldn’t return; she’d marry a rich man in the city.
The elevator doors opened. Chloe entered, arm in arm with Ethan. “Take the next elevator. Our companies aren’t on the same level!”
Ethan glared.“Alice, I’ll make sure your company can’t survive in Peking.” Alice had sabotaged Lu Corp.’s firewall, almost ruining their reputation. He’d make her pay; she’d beg for forgiveness. Ethan’s gaze locked on Alice.“If you stop now, I’ll let you off. You’re
my sister.”
