Filed To Story: Returning to Her Not-So-Poor Family
“Zachary, I have to go.” Yolanda struggled to free herself from his arms. “If you feel guilty about me, could you do me a favor?”
“What is it?” Zachary kept holding her hand, reluctant to let go.
“Do you remember the wedding house your family bought for you? And the time you took me there, and I planted rose seeds in the yard.”
Of course, Zachary remembered. She had said she wanted to fill their future home with beautiful roses.
“When you have time, could you dig up the rose seedlings that have grown and give me one?” Yolanda said this with a blissful smile. “Consider it a memento from you. Even without you by my side, I’ll still have a rose to keep me company.”
Zachary suddenly felt she was so naive. She didn’t want a house or money, but a cheap rose?
How innocent and considerate she must be to say that!
“Can you do it, Zachary?”
Zachary’s hardened heart was completely melted. “I’m clumsy, I might ruin the roots. How about I take you there, and you dig it up yourself?”
“Now?”
“Yes, now.”
Yolanda was still trying to figure out how to get him alone with her; she didn’t expect him to take the bait so quickly!
Actually, Zachary just wanted to take her somewhere private and hold her tightly, just like before.
But how could Yolanda pass up such an opportunity? She accepted the offer, then glanced at the place where Mirabella had just passed. She didn’t know which rich man Mirabella was dining with! She would have to ask later!
At this moment, Mirabella was sitting at the dining table, with Romeo arranging the cutlery for her while she was checking the messages on her phone.
[Boss, good morning. The air is so fresh today. Go outside and see if you can smell the scent of money.]
Mirabella replied, “Are you broke already?”
[My research failed again. If we want to continue, we need ten million.] The other party sent a smiling face emoji.
Mirabella didn’t expect the project to be so expensive; she didn’t want to use David’s credit card anymore. All she could say was, “Wait a moment.”
When Romeo stepped out to take a call, Mirabella launched a mysterious website, immediately presenting two options on the homepage.
[Find someone to do the task for you]
[Start the task yourself]
Mirabella clicked on [Start the task yourself], and a message quickly appeared on the screen: “Welcome back, Mirabella!”
A green icon popped up at the bottom right of her profile picture, indicating she was online.
“Holy cow, am I seeing this right? The top gun on the leaderboard is back!”
“She’s online right now!”
“Mirabella hasn’t shown up for half a year! I wonder what task she’ll take on next?”
“No doubt, it’s got to be a high paying one!”
On this website, there was a leaderboard. Claiming the top spot, with a 100% completion rate and the highest earnings, was none other than Mirabella. Upon clicking her profile picture, two columns appeared beneath it. The left one was a list of her completed tasks, all sixteen of them, each raking in a cool five million minimum.
The right column displayed requests for her help, with over 1300 tasks piling up. Although the details of the tasks were hidden, the offered rewards, ranging from a few million to tens of millions, were visible.
Mirabella opened a task offering ten million, requiring her to crack a drone combat system, the mightiest military tech in N country, If cracked, Solterra could create an even more powerful system!
The fortune that could come from that would be a never–ending stream!
Mirabella speculated that the task was posted by a businessman with high standing in Solterra and his own tech team.
Because after cracking such a system, the businessman would need a ton of manpower and funds to research the new system.
It was going to cost a pretty penny!
Given the client’s deep pockets, Mirabella boldly jacked up her price to a whopping hundred million.
This move left many hackers gobsmacked.
“A hundred mil? What kind of task could make Mirabella ask for such a crazy amount right off the bat? She’s got some nerve!
“I’m so jealous of these pros!”
“Is this task harder than studying aliens or something?”
“I can only take on twenty grand jobs; I don’t even have the right to haggle; pros are just on another level! Just gotta admire from afar!”
Romeo had just returned from his call when his phone buzzed again. As he picked up, his face turned serious!
A hundred million, the client really offered that amount!
“Mr. McMillan, if we miss this opportunity, we might never find a suitable candidate again! It’s not every day that Alex comes online!”
Keep in mind, they’ve been trying to fill this task for three months and have been waiting for Alex to log on!
If they refuse, the big shot might take on other tasks!
“Mr. McMillan, cracking this system is crucial for us.”
Once they unlocked its secrets and developed a new system, not only Solterra but other countries would also throw big money at it!
The amount of wealth that could come from that was beyond measure!
“Agree to it.” Romeo’s voice was icy.
Carl on the other end of the line let out a sigh of relief and started making arrangements right away!
After a while, Mirabella saw the client click the agree button, and the task was underway!
“Whoa, am I seeing this right? They actually agreed? This client must be loaded”
“I so wish I could land a billion–dollar project”
“Just what kind of job is worth a billion?”
Mirabella opened the system sent by the client on her phone, and it was way more complex than she had anticipated. There was no way she could crack it in half an hour.
At that moment, Romeo walked in after a phone call. Seeing that she hadn’t touched her food and was still on her phone, he couldn’t help but ask, “Are you working or something?”
“Nope” Mirabella put away her phone and looked at the dozen or so dishes in front of her. “Why did you order so much food?”
She hadn’t noticed earlier, but he’d ordered a ton of food in a flash..
“There are some new dishes. I thought you might want to try them. What do you think?”
Meanwhile
Carl was stunned when Alex logged off after receiving the money. Was Alex going to take off?
Everyone said Alex was amazing, with a 100% success rate on tasks, but they were all stories. This was their first time working with Alex!
If he really took off.
After some thought, Carl couldn’t help but call Romeo.
This was the fourth time Romeo had received a call from Carl that day, and he was getting a bit impatient. “You better have something important to say.” Carl had the audacity to interrupt his date.
“Mr. McMillan, Alex took the money and logged off! I’m worried he.”
Losing some money was one thing, but the system was something they’d worked hard to get.
If it got leaked, their losses would be immense!
“He wouldn’t dare.”
Romeo didn’t seem bothered. As long as Alex left his information on the website, finding him would be a piece of cake.
Carl was surprised that Mr. McMillan was more relaxed than he was, and his heart finally settled down.
Elsewhere.
Zachary entered the password to his villa, and the first thing he saw was a small garden.
“Zachary, look, so many roses!”
Yolanda hadn’t expected the seeds she’d casually sown to bloom into so many flowers, and she was overjoyed.
“The maid comes over to clean and water them every day.” Zachary led her into the garden, and seeing her happy face made him feel better.
“In the future, the girl who will admire these flowers with you will be someone else.” Yolanda touched the scene and pretended to be sentimental.
“Yoli.”
“I’m okay; as long as you’re happy, I’m satisfied!” Yolanda pretended to squat down to smell the roses.
She tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear, closed her eyes, and showed a calm face, deliberately showing her cleavage.
Under the sunlight, every movement she made was full of innocent beauty.
