Chapter 83

Alice, impassive, hailed a taxi. She wouldn’t waste another word

like it?”

“I did!” Alice snatched the pastry bag and tossed it on the ground “Be you told me nor to be so picky, so I pretended I liked it.” In her past life, she hadn’t dared to express her preferences for fear of upsetting her brothers. They’d never cared about her likes and dislikes Alice left in the taxi. The past hurt ran deeper than a simple apology could erase. Noah was left reeling,

Alice arrived at the partner company just as Noah’s car pulled up. He said cautiously, Alice, it was Second brother’s fault. What do you like? Tell me now?

“It’s not necessary.” She wasn’t ready to talk.

They entered the company together. Two figures emerged from a conference room–Androx Yates and Jack,

Alice was stunned, and Jack was surprised to see her.

Andrew Yates coughed pointedly. “Everyone’s here. I heard the firewall issue is resolved Let’s take a look.” They’d come to find fault, but Alice had solved the problem, this was problematic The manager stood up respectfully.“Sir, Miss Alice tested the software. Is there anything else? Andrew Yates pretended to examine the documents. The firewall issue had been deliberately created to cause trouble for Windham Corporation. He looked at Jack. He needed Jack’s approval

Jack examined the documents, surprised. “You fixed it yourself?”

Alice nodded. “It was a simple issue.” She was surprised to see Andrew Yates, this company was his. The overtime requests were because of the firewall? The problem was a simple oversight, a mental block she’d overcome in her past life, allowing her to solve it quickly this time…

Jack said casually,“If it was so simple, why couldn’t your company fix it? Did it require a high school graduate?” His tone was sarcastic.

Noah’s face fell. He hadn’t expected Jack to be here; he was either the owner or a partner.

Noah’s tone was strained. “Alice was involved in this project from the start; the firewall was her responsibility.” He hadn’t expected her to solve it.

Yates started being sarcastic. “So she’s that important? She’s young but skilled in software development. You should have nurtured
