"Whoa, I never imagined that I would meet another computer whiz in my lifetime! You took down twelve computers, that's crazy man" With an amused giggle, the man with blue hair gave Jeff a playful tap on the shoulder. "What's your secret, tell me?"Jeff had a bored look listening to Marcus Cuomo, the guy who had forcefully dragged him into his car."You can say anything you want to." With a nonchalant expression on his thin lips, Jeff said, "I have some things to attend to." "Wow, are you in a hurry?" Marcus smiled, his lips curling upward. "Did you hope you would see Alicia? Is that the reason you voluntarily followed me?""I voluntarily followed you? You were clearly drawing unnecessary attention and I would have declined if I want to." With his icy eyes growing even more icy, Jeff shot back, "I was just trying to keep your ass from getting insulted. And who the hell is Alicia?" After winning the qualifying stage, a lot of participants all stared at him with shock. Twelve computers

As Jeff waited in front of the building, he couldn't shake off the feeling of exhaustion. It appears that haughtiness will never go away.Especially rich people. They consider their life to be superior to everyone else's and look down on others.Perhaps that is the case, but why are they so arrogant and include strangers in their unkempt affairs? His thoughts were interrupted when a car pulled up to the curb. With a quick glance, Jeff noticed the familiar sound of the engine, which suggested the unexpected arrival of someone. The window whirred down, revealing a pair of piercing eyes that Jeff had encountered before."Atlas?" Jeff whispered to himself, his tone slightly surprised.Atlas greeted him with a smirk. "Young Master Jeff, it is been a long time. Or should I say, renowned Jeff after your groundbreaking performance today?"Jeff chuckled, a touch of arrogance creeping into his voice. "Well, I did deserve all the recognition," he said, furrowing his brows."You are still prou

Tension hung over the family members gathered in the Malfoy Mansion, swirling around them like a dense fog. Seated at the head of the table, Old Master Malfoy's severe expression revealed little about his inner thoughts. His furrowed brow drew worry lines. It appeared as though he had aged slightly in a brief amount of time.Sanya, on the other hand, had more fatigue as seen by her wrinkled face and dark circles under her eyes. It appeared as though the refined woman had vanished. Her beauty differs from what was know.David was standing by her side, offering her support through the recent events and acting as a silent shield for his wife.Arlina sat at the far end of the table, a physical distance between her and her husband, Duane. She was cold and untouchable. Although his invitation to this meeting had brought them together, it appeared to deepen rather than to heal the Family. Duane tried to be polite, but his words were drowned out by the reverberations of old grudges.The den

The team assigned to Jeff followed him to the venue of the World Software Competition this time, including Mr. Gary. Ever since Jeff exceeded their expectations in the qualifying stage, he has been so quiet and would not talk if not necessary.Although he hasn't apologized to Jeff, one could tell what was wrong with him. He looked shameful but wouldn't dare to act inferior to Jeff.Before, no one is allowed in the venue but a message was sent to Jeff that he could bring anyone to the Venue.As they got the venue, a lot of people were at the entrance, a lot of them, holding sign posts with Marcus Carter names on it.Professor Paul scrunched up his nose and faced Jeff. "Be careful in there, I think Marcus Carter is up to no good."Professor Paul understood why a young man like Marc became cunning and calculating. He didn't even hesitate to badmouth Jeff and asked bluntly that Professor Paul should be his Mentor.Growing up in a family where competition thrives must be exhausting."You

With Jeff's screen turning green, the room went silent, broken by the only sound coming from the computers' faint hum. Marc cast a sidelong glance at Jeff, his expression indiscernible, as though it revealed a hidden pleasure. "You can't be done, right?"It wasn't even a question. It was more like a fact that doesn't need to be checked."What do you think?" Jeff let down a low chuckle and pressed on the bell to signify that he was done. Marc was looking at the screen, trying to take in what had just happened when his eyes grew wide with disbelief.A mixture of surprise and suspicion characterized Professor Paul's observations of the scene in the meantime. He glanced at Mia, who seemed to share his concern. They both knew that something did not add up. Wasn't Jeff very worried before when his screen turned black?"He is done? How is that even possible?" Gary raised a brow, staring at Jeff on the screen. He saw the nineteen year old boy leaning against his chair, unbothered and unworr
