Chapter 117

“You said Alice wrote the code?” Ethan was stunned. ‘I… I didn’t know.” And Alice was so young?

Luke said, “Brother, I mentioned it before, but you forgot. Alice silently contributed a lot, but we ignored her.” He realized how wrong he’d been.

Ethan stammered, “I thought you wrote it; she just helped.” He’d assumed Luke was making excuses for Alice. He hadn’t expected it to be true.

“Fine! But your living expenses for all these years–your food, clothing, and shelter–came from Lu Corp! We gave you expensive gifts on birthdays!”

“You forgot? After our parents died, I stopped celebrating birthdays. You bought expensive gifts for Chloe, not me.”

‘Nonsense! I remember buying you an antique phoenix crown.”

Alice smirked.“Chloe took it.”
