Chapter 195
Renee held her chin in both hands like she was a flower, then said cutely. “You get to receive the heartfelt gratitude and adoration from this beautiful flower!”
“Nope, I need you to show more sincerity than that!”
Haze waved her away, obviously disinterested. He casually lay down onto the couch and said while leisurely shaking his leg.” The price for my service usually starts at 100 million dollars. You obviously want me to do it for free. No way, Jose.”
Renee was pissed off.
The guy had such a punchable face right now.
However, she needed his help, she could only put on her best fake smile and asked, “Okay, tell me, what do you want?”
Haze suddenly became interested. He sat upright and said seriously. “You know, I’m going to be thirty in another year or two. My family is worried about my personal life, so…”
“I refuse!”
Before he had even finished speaking. Renee had made a cross with her hands, her expression filled with unwillingness. “I’m off limit. I’ve already sealed away my heart. The only thing I care about now is my career. It’s fine if you want to be friends with me, but husband and wife? Absolutely impossible!”
There was a playful glint in Haze’s eyes as his thin lips curled into an evil smile. He said, “You’re out of your mind. Yes, I find
you rather pleasant, but not to the point where I want to marry you. I don’t believe in marriage.”
“Ahem. Is that so?”
Renee’s face was a little red.
How embarrassing. Since when did she become a narcissist like Stefan Hunt? Did she think everyone was interested in her?
She had really made a fool of herself this time.
“So what do you want me to do?”
Renee pretended like nothing happened and asked Haze again.
“My grandfather is pressuring me hard. He’ll be celebrating his 80th birthday soon, and he said I must bring home a girlfriend then. I’ve been thinking about it – you’re the only woman in my social circle, so…”
“You want me to pretend to be your girlfriend?”
Renee thought hard about it, then patted her chest and said. “Leave it to me. I have lots of burner accounts but none has ever been exposed, and that’s all thanks to my superb acting skills.”
“It’s a deal!”
The two high–fived and happily agreed to the cooperation.
Haze sat down in front of the computer and casually typed a string of codes. Not long after that, he miraculously cracked the hospital’s cloud storage system and successfully stole the missing surveillance footage.
The entire process took less than ten minutes!
Renee, who was looking from the back, was stunned. She gave him a thumbs up and said, “That’s amazing, Haze. You’ve become so skilled over the past few years. You actually cracked this S+++level encryption technology in less than ten minutes. Looks like the International Hacker Competition this year is yours to lose.”
“But of course!”
Haze leaned back on the chair and looked up at Renee. His face, which had striking facial features, was perfect.
For an instant, seeing this unruly handsome face, Renee’s heart skipped a beat.
Haze was different from Stefan. He was not as cold and aloof as Stefan was. He seemed to be friendly, but he actually kept a safe distance from everyone and was full of mystery.
This kind of man was like a gust of wind. No one could see through it, let alone grab hold of it!
After that, Haze’s words almost made Renee cough up blood.
“Because this encryption was made by yours truly. Your ex–husband contacted me and asked me to reinforce the system security overnight!”
Haze’s lips curled into a playful smile. “I’m just cracking my own encryption. Of course it was fast!”
“What did you say?”
Renee’s face suddenly stiffened.
That meant Stefan knew that Margaret was framed, but instead of letting Margaret go, he destroyed the evidence that could prove Margaret’s innocence! That’s so ruthless of him!
Fortunately, there was still justice in this world. She had now got her hands on the full surveillance footage.
To ensure that nothing went wrong, Renee asked Haze, “Will he know that you cracked the encryption?”
“If you want him to know, he’ll know. If you don’t want him to know, he won’t know.”
“You definitely can’t let him know!”
Renee emphasized.
She was looking forward to what expression Stefan and Briar would show when they saw the full surveillance footage in the trial three days from now.
“You two are really something. Your ex–husband gave me 40 million dollars to reinforce the hospital’s cloud storage system to prevent you from breaking in, and now you use your charm to break in anyway. Come to think of it. I’m the biggest winner of this whole thing because I get paid by both parties!”
Haze’s expression became even more smug.
Interesting, how interesting!
Initially, he only wanted to look on as a “bystander“, but now he suddenly felt like “joining the game“…
