Chapter 6

Author: Healthy Baby
William and Wanda went ahead to hold their engagement banquet.

It was held at the top floor of Garcia Tech’s headquarters.

The media, investors, and partners attended the grand affair.

William was dressed in a white suit with a white rose corsage on his chest.

Wanda wrapped her arms around his, with a presentable yet slightly stiff smile on her face.

The host asked, “Mr. Garcia, will Ms. Stewart’s AI image attend today’s banquet as well?”

William fell silent for a moment before responding,

    Wanda wept delicately before the judge.“I just loved William Garcia too much.”The judge didn’t even look at her, and neither did I.William’s sentence for illegal detention, intentional injury, illegal human experimentation, infringement of personal information, and falsifying medical certificates was more severe.I didn’t attend the court session when his sentence was announced.When my assistant showed me the livestream, I was dismantling the last Brain-Computing Interface cabin in the old laboratory.The sentence was read.A combined penalty of 20 years of fixed-term imprisonment, a fine, and a lifetime ban from engaging in the brain-computer medical industry.The cameras pointed to the dock.William was in prison uniform, his hair cut short and his face drained of colour.When he heard the sentencing, he suddenly lifted his head and looked at the public gallery.I wasn’t there.He collapsed to the ground, finally realizing something.-Half a year later, I could fin

    Today marked the first public negotiation of my acquisition of whatever remained of Garcia Tech.William stood at the sidelines of the media zone.He had lost so much weight that he looked almost unrecognisable, and his black suit hung loosely on his body.The man who was once hailed as the best storyteller in the tech world had now lost his spot in the front row seats.My assistant crouched down and whispered, “Ms. Stewart, William Garcia is here.”I didn’t look at him.“Make sure security keeps a close eye on him.”After the press conference drew to a close, reporters swarmed forward.“Ms. Stewart, did you come back specially to completely take over Garcia Tech?”I pressed a button on the electrolarynx, and a mechanical female voice sounded.“Not to take over, but to liquidate.”Garcia Tech’s illegal projects were all listed out on the screen.Illegal Brain-Computer Interface experiments. Falsifying medical certificates.Infringement of digital personality.Each one w

    When Mr. Stewart stormed into the third basement floor of Garcia Tech’s office building with his men, William was standing right before Laboratory Capsule No. 7.The police had cordoned off the scene, and doctors were busy restoring my vital signs.I had lost so much weight that I was all skin and bones.My wrists, neck, and temples were covered with needle marks.My father's body swayed when he saw me, and my father's attorney, Mr. Lane, held him steady.“Mr. Stewart,” he said.My father didn’t cry.I walked to the laboratory capsule step by step before finally putting his palm against the cold glass.“Tiffany, I’m here.”I couldn’t respond to him.I could only make the monitor at the side light up with the words: [Dad, don’t fear. I’m still here.]My words made tears fall down my father’s cheeks.William stood by the side, his voice hoarse as he said, “Dad, I…”My father turned around and slapped William hard.His slap came quickly and viciously.The corner of William’

    William thought I had died, but what zeroed out wasn’t my heartbeat.Instead, it was the full surveillance permission that Garcia Tech’s system had over my body and consciousness.Seven minutes after my disappearance, William smashed all of the screens in the main control room.“Restore her.”The technician knelt on the floor, his hands covered with blood.“Mr. Garcia, Mrs. Garcia’s stream of consciousness is gone.”“What do you mean it’s gone?”William kicked a chair over.“You did this. Now get her back!”Joshua looked up at him.“Mr. Garcia, we didn’t do this. You were the one who locked a living human being into the system.”William’s head whipped back.Joshua bit his lip.“She’s not a program. She’s Tiffany Stewart.”His words felt like a slap in William’s face.He froze for a few seconds before chuckling.“She won’t die. She’s so smart, and she’s definitely hiding somewhere.”Wanda was curled up in a corner with tears staining her face.“William, she’s gone. Let

    “Who turned off the oxygen supply valve?”When Joshua’s voice sounded from the third basement floor, I was trying to brute-force level three permissions.In the surveillance footage, my physical body was lying in Laboratory Capsule No. 7.My face was pale and many tubes were sticking out of my body, with a slight rising and falling of my chest.Wanda stood by the capsule with a shot of new medication in her hands.She wasn’t pretending to be weak or vulnerable today. She looked down at my body with excitement in her eyes.“Tiffany, did you know that William said that your brain activity is a world-class sample?“If your consciousness schema were to be transferred to my project, I’ll be Garcia Tech’s next generation ambassador.”Her new project was called Wanda AI.My brain waves made up the core emotional schema, while her face was the commercial packaging.Joshua rushed forward to stop her.“Ms. Scott, that’s a living human being we’re talking about!”Wanda slapped him har
