She added. “I’m planning to take them back. What do you think about letting your investment company handle them for me p>
Jason replied, “No problem. Just transfer them over whenever you’re ready p>
He asked. “Are you ready for what’s coming up next week p>
Alicia knew exactly what he was talking about. “Yeah, I’m ready p>
She added. “You wanna come watch the drama unfold with me p>
Jason chuckled. “Wouldn’t miss it for the world p>
Back then, his life was pretty dull–just work, making money, and plotting revenge.
But ever since he teamed up with Alicia, things had gotten way more interesting. He never used to care about watching the drama unfold or getting into the tea.
But now, he was actually starting to enjoy it.
He asked, “Need any help with anything p>
Alicia thought for a second. “Got any hacker contacts? I need to tap into the Hammond family’s surveillance system, and I want to project something onto their screens without them being able to cut it off.
“So I’ll need some real hacking skills to make sure they can’t kill the feed p>
Jason pointed at himself. “You came to the right person–I’m the hacker you need p>
Aside from his investments, Jason’s main focus overseas had been on cutting–edge technology and renewable energy.
Back in college, he majored in artificial intelligence, and one of his close buddies was a top–tier hacker- Jason actually learned hacking skills directly from him.
Alicia’s eyes sparkled. “Jason, you’re such a brainiac–there’s nothing you can’t do. You really have your hands in everything.
“I’ll leave it to you then p>
Jason replied, “You got it p>
Two days later.
The Hammond family home.
Leo returned from an overseas business trip, bringing his wife along.
That same day, all the Hammond brothers showed up at the old mansion.

When dinner rolled around. Leo looked at the empty seat to his left.
He couldn’t help but ask. “Where’s Ally? Why hasn’t she come down to eat yet p>
He’d been resting in his room earlier, so he had no idea if Alicia was home yet.
Usually, whenever he got back from a trip, unless something really important came up, his kids would always make sure to be there for dinner.
He really enjoyed having the whole family together like this.
And his daughter almost never missed a family dinner.
So he just assumed she was still upstairs.
On his right, his wife, Mavis, smiled at the Hammond brothers. “I brought back a bunch of gifts for you all. After dinner, let Ally pick out a few she likes first p>
She knew Alicia wasn’t even home, which was exactly why she said it.
Leo smiled gently. “You really spoil her, you know p>
The woman he married after his first wife was a whole different story.
She was gentle and hands–on, making sure every little thing at home was taken care of.
She treated his daughter even better than she treated her own kids, always picking out special gifts for her whenever she traveled.
And when she got back, she’d always let his daughter pick first.
Whenever she planned anything, she always put his daughter first, hardly ever thinking about Nicole.
She was always looking out for his daughter, making sure she had everything she needed, whether it was for school or just daily life.
He’d always known his wife wanted his daughter’s approval, hoping she’d accept both her and Nicole as family.
But sadly, his headstrong daughter never gave her any credit for it.
So to make up for that, he started going out of his way to be extra nice to Nicole.
Nicole had a tough childhood, and he really felt for her.
On top of that, she was always respectful and thoughtful toward him–mature, considerate, and sweet. The more time they spent together, the closer they got.
He gradually started seeing her as his own daughter.
He turned to the servant and said, “Go call Ally down for dinner.
“Dinner’s about to start and we still have to send someone to get her p>

Chapter 132
His daughter had been acting up more than ever these days.
Kevin couldn’t help but make a face as he watched his two younger brothers immediately bury themselves in their soup,
He turned to his dad and said. “Dad, Ally’s not home today p>
Leo frowned. “Is she really that busy? How long has it been since Ally had dinner with us p>
She missed the last few family gatherings too. Honestly, that’s kind of out of line.
