Chapter 25

Pearl turned him down as she had something important to do. She left the party and got into a car,

where Wanye was waiting.

“Are you all better now, Miss Pearl?”

Pearl laughed. “I’ve long recovered. Let’s go. Step on or it’ll be over before we get there.”

Wayne nodded and stepped on the gas.

They headed to an underground market. There was an auction for an advanced computer there

tonight. It was said that it was a computer once owned by the world’s top hacker, and there was only

one such computer in the whole world. Pearl liked fiddling around with these kinds of things, so had to

get her hands on this computer.

When they arrived at the scene, they were just in time for the climax of the auction. The computer was

the last item to be auctioned. The starting price was 1 million and 3 hundred thousand dollars.

Everyone was taken aback. Pearl remained quiet. When the voices subsided, she started to bid for the

computer.

“16 million dollars. Any other offers?”

Wayne slowly raised his paddle, “17 million.”

“Any other offers? 17 million dollars going once. 17 million going twice…”

“27 million.”

Pearl’s face stiffened. She looked around and spotted a familiar figure. Unfortunately, many people

here were wearing glasses, so it was hard to tell a person’s real identity.

“41 million.” Wayne continued to increase the price.

41 million dollars was a high price for a computer. No one else offered a higher price except that

strange man in glasses. He raised his paddle and said, “54 million.”

54 million dollars?

Wayne tilted his head and asked Pearl if she wanted to keep going. She shook her head and said

helplessly, “Let him have it.”

After she made up her mind, Wayne stopped raising his paddle. At last, the man walked away with the

computer.

Wayne was about to send Pearl home after the auction was over, but a group of people blocked their

way when they reached the entrance. The leading man was a blonde man with blue eyes and glasses.

His domineering aura was evident at first glance.

“It’s been a long time, Pearl.”

Though he was wearing glasses, Pearl recognized who he was. She said in surprise, “Dimi? Why are

you here?”

Dimitri York and Pearl had learned the same trade together, and he was her senior. Besides, their

hacking skills were some of the best.

He chuckled. “I came to get the computer. Did you forget that it’s your birthday in two days? I knew

you’d like it, so I came here to Caplein to buy it.”

“How long are you going to be here?”

“Not long. I’m leaving tomorrow. I was planning to deliver this to you, but now I can just give it to you

directly.”

Pearl became annoyed. “I wouldn’t have competed with you if I knew it was you. You paid the organizer

so much for nothing.”

Dimitri ruffled her hair. “It’s fine as long as you’re happy. It’s just 54 million.”

A light flickered in a corner before quickly disappearing.

They talked about their lives before Dimitri left to catch his flight. Pearl returned to the Waldorf

residence. When she got downstairs for breakfast the next morning, everyone looked at her weirdly.

Mobius snorted. “I didn’t expect you to be a top student.”

Pearl sat down and ignored his ridicule.

“Okay, stop talking” Dustan glared at Mobius before he cleared his throat. “Since it’s the weekend

today, I’ve decided we should go hiking.”

Pift!

Everyone gaped in shock.
