As she recalled what had happened last night, Amanita’s hands closed into fists. She did not want Marcus’s insincere sacrifice!She was the heiress of the wealthy Wallace family. She did not worry about not being able to marry. If Marcus did not want to marry her, someone else surely would.“Dad, you won’t talk me out of it. Samuel is very nice. I can sense that he really likes me. As for Dennis and the others, they only listen to me because they’re supposed to be my prospective husbands.”Amanita looked down. Her thick eyelashes obscured the dejection in her eyes. Soon, she collected herself and looked up again. She said to her father, “There’s one more thing, Dad. Since I won’t be marrying them, there’s no point for our family to keep housing my prospective husbands. Freeze all their assets and cancel all of Risa’s cards. The Wallace family has no use for unnecessary people!”“Alright.” George nodded. “Since you won’t be marrying them, there’s really no reason to keep them in

The next day, Amanita was discharged from the hospital. Marcus drove over to take her home. However, she did not even peek at Marcus once. She went straight to Dennis’s car. Dannis had quite a sense of humor. During the trip, he kept joking with Amanita, but she was unable to smile. “Are you not happy today, Nita?” Dennis asked gently. “There’s an auction today. I’ll take you. When a woman’s in a bad mood, she should shop. Shopping will turn that frown upside down. Just bid however you like at the auction. I’ll pay for it.”Amanita glared at Dennis. Sounding unhappy, she said, “That’s very generous of you. But aren’t you spending the Wallace family’s money?”In the past, she would not have cared. Yet, after she found out her prospective husbands’ secret, it was impossible for her to ignore. “Don’t underestimate me, alright?” Dennis said with a chuckle. “Marcus isn’t the only genius in the Wallace family. I’ve been making some investments abroad, too. I’ve made quite a bit of mo

Although Amanita had locked the door from her side, Marcus was somehow able to open it easily. “Get out. I don’t want to see you,” Amanita said. Her eyes were red-rimmed. “Also, a locked door is an indication that you’re not welcome. You’re not supposed to come in. You shouldn’t be picking a lock so openly!”Marcus laughed. “I’m sorry. It’s a bad habit from when I was on the streets.”As he spoke, he came to sit at Amanita’s side. “I was very poor then and couldn’t afford food. To fill my stomach, I would occasionally have to resort to crime.” Marcus’s voice was sad.“Back in those dark days, I only had Risa by my side. She’s the most important person to me.”At this, Marcus paused and turned to Amanita. His eyes seemed as deep as a bottomless abyss.No one could ever truly see through him.“Nita, I’m really very thankful that your father took me and Risa in,” Marcus said. “And I’m willing to do anything for you.“However, the prerequisite is that you have to let Risa stay.

Among the prospective husbands, the most shocked were Marcus and Dennis. “Are you kidding, Nita?” Marcus asked. His expression was dark. “Is it because I gifted ‘The Ocean’s Tears’ to Risa and not you? Is that why you’re doing this? To spite me?”Dennis looked displeased as well. “Nita, why did you choose Samuel? If you wanted to spite Marcus, you could have picked me. I don’t mind you using me!” The besotted look on Dennis’s face made many in the crowd feel touched. “Dennis really loves Amanita a lot. I heard he’s even thrown himself off a building for her!”“Why doesn’t Amanita pick him? If a man loved me that much, I would marry him in a heartbeat!”“All of Norchester knows how crazy in love Dennis is with Amanita. But Amanita’s never even looked at him.”Everyone in the crowd thought this was unfair to Dennis. They felt that it was a shame for Dennis to have contributed all his love for nothing and not win his love’s hand. Hearing the pity that the crowd had for Denni

Amanita did not trust Marcus. She was worried that he would trick her. As such, she got George to find two other top hackers to perform the trace. “You don’t trust me, Nita?” The look in Marcus’s eyes was almost hurt. It was the first time Amanita had seen such a thing in his depthless eyes. “That’s right. I don’t trust you,” Amanita said coldly. “You’re not worthy of my trust.”Marcus quietly balled his hands into fists but quickly loosened them again. “Forget it. You’re angry right now, so I won’t argue with you. I will prove my innocence and win your trust again.”After saying this, Marcus turned on his laptop and started to trace where the signal that projected the photos and video had come from. Lines of green code flashed on the screen rapidly as Marcus typed. His expression told of single-minded focus. The other two hackers were also determinedly typing on their keyboards. But their skill and speed were much slower than Marcus’s. Soon, Marcus completed the trace. I
