Meanwhile, in the Evans family.
Moore Mamet is discussing the company partnership proposal with Mag
Evans. Suddenly, a message arrives on his phone. He takes a glance: “Black
Tide has replied. She says she can infiltrate their system whenever we give her our signal.”
Mr. Evans, who is listening on the side, can’t help but be overjoyed: “Really? Then let her infiltrate now!”
Moore hesitates for a moment: “If we let Black Tide intervene, Xaviera might have trouble on her end…”0
Once the evidence in Xaviera’s possession disappears, they can do whatever they want with her.
All the dirt on Mag can be poured onto Xaviera, making it impossible for her to ever turn over a new leaf.
Suddenly, Moore’s conscience rises from his bones. It’s not Xaviera’s fault, and blaming everything on her to protect Mag is completely unfair to Xaviera.o
Mag’s hand, hidden underneath the table, tightly clings onto her skirt, but her face is full of sorrow: “Moore, let’s not get Mortimer involved… It’s all my fault for loving you so much and making the foolish decision to fake a pregnancy…
My sister is innocent; it’s unjust if we do this to her.”o
After a pause, she continues: “Even if my sister has changed, she’s still my sister… No matter what she blackmails me with using the video on her phone, I’ll just agree to it…”
“Mag!
Mr. Evans sternly speaks up: “Besides being Xaviera’s sister, you’re also the heir of the Evans Group. You can be softhearted towards Xaviera because of your sisterly love, but as the heir, everything you do is closely related to the Evans Group. If you’re grasped with such important leverage, it’s like burying a ticking time bomb for the company.”
“Now is not the time for you to hesitate. What if Xaviera’s reputation is ruined? She’ll always be Miss Evans, and with you, the future heir of the Evans Group, protecting her, how could she suffer?”
Between a countryside girl like Xaviera, and Mag who had been groomed to be the heir since childhood, it’s clear who’s more important.
After listening to Mr. Evans’ words, Moore feels they make sense, “Uncle Evans is right; let’s just wrong Xaviera this time, and we’ll find a way to compensate her later. ”
A moment later, Xaviera’s work phone rings.
“Miss Black Tide, this is Moore Mamet.”
Moore speaks with utmost respect.
Xaviera, with a voice changer, speaks lazily in a mechanical tone, “So you’re the one who offered 30 million dollars for me to hack a girl’s phone?”
The words coming out of her mouth adds an oddly sleazy connotation to the situation.
Moore’s request to have Black Tide invade Xaviera’s phone was obviously to protect Mag, but being phrased like that by Black Tide, it makes him look like a pervert trying to invade a girl’s privacy.
Still, Moore doesn’t dare say anything more.
No one wants to provoke a top hacker who can effortlessly infiltrate into their phone and steal any encrypted files.
“Please forgive me, Miss Black Tide. I had no choice but to seek your help since the girl threatened my fiancée with a video. As a man, it’s my duty to protect my woman. ”
“Oh, you’re really a man of great loyalty. But after some casual investigation, I found that some things you mentioned don’t seem to fit?”
At the other end of the phone, it becomes dead silent.
Moore is surprised that Black Tide found out his true identity in such a short time, and also alarmed by Xaviera’s investigation.
“I wonder what Miss Black Tide has found? Some things might not be accurately portrayed by the outside world; I can explain them personally to Miss Black Tide.”
“Alright, then Mr. Mamet can start by explaining your fiancée’s situation. As far as I know, your fiancée should be Xaviera, and you offered 30 million dollars for me to hack her Dhone. But you just said you’re doing all of this to protect
your fiancée, so do you have another fiancée?”
“Yes, my fiancée is Mag. She’s Xaviera’s younger sister.”
Hearing Moore’s words, Mag’s eyes well up with tears, and she can’t help but lean her delicate body onto Moore’s shoulder.
Xaviera smirks, “So you hooked up with Xaviera’s sister, Mag, while being engaged to Xaviera? Mr. Mamet, you’re quite the player.”
“Miss Black Tide, Mag and I are truly in love. She’s gentle and kind, loves me wholeheartedly, and is also a famously talented woman in Libanan. It’s perfectly normal for me to fall for her. But Xaviera, she’s from the countryside, crude and ignorant, and full of lies. She doesn’t deserve to become a part of the
Mamet family.”
Not worthy of becoming a part of the Mamet family, huh…
Xaviera speaks with a meaningful smile, “Mr. Mamet, it’s better not to be too absolute with some words. What goes around comes around.”
Without giving Moore a chance to ask questions, she directly says, “I’ll accept your request, but since your actions are dishonest, I’m raising my price..”
