    Chapter 443


    Everett had finally made Dorothy his wife, with her name inked next to spouse on his official


    documents, he found himself too giddy with joy to sleep for several nights


    Dorothy was always surprised at how Everett, who appeared so stoic, seemed to have an insatiable


    desire for her, as if he couldn’t get enough. But for Everett, it wasn’t just a newfound appetite for


    pleasure. It was only in their intimate moments, in the tender whispers and the closeness of their


    bodies, that he felt a deep sense of reality.


    She was truly his.


    His was her first love, his first sex experience, and his first wife.


    Now, it seemed like the heavens had even blessed them with two children! Everett was over the moon,


    yet that joy brought with it a fear


    of loss


    Having gained so much all at once, he tread carefully with every step, considering all aspects to avoid


    future regrets.


    As Dorothy stepped into the vi, she was immediately hit by a musty smell, a clear sign that no one


    had lived there for a while. Dusty thick on the chandeliers in the foyer.


    She frowned delicately and scanned her surroundings, searching for the elusive cyber hacker she had


    managed to make an Appointment with.


    “Hello!”


    Out of nowhere, a youthful voice called from behind her.


    Dorothy turned toward the sound and saw a young man in a ck hoodie lounging steady gaze

    on a


    on a sofa by the vi’s window, watching her with a


    “Are you Byte 7?‘ she asked.


    “And you’re the one sent by the big shot at Lopez Corporation?” he countered without answering her


    question.


    Dorothy nodded, “Yes, that’s me.”


    The sunlight streaming through the window made it difficult for her to see his face clearly, but she tried


    to make out his features as best she could against the blinding light


    “Spit it out. What do you want?” The impatience in the young man’s voice was palpable, his fingers still


    tapping away at a keyboard. Hesitating for a moment, Dorothy asked with uncertainty. “The job I need


    you to do… Can you keep the details to yourself? Don’t tell anyone, including Everett.”


    “I don’t do arson or murder, and I’m not in the business of gossip for the smaller stuff, he replied briskly.


    “Till take that as a yes, Dorothy said, taking out a damaged surveince hard drive from her bag. “I


    need to recover the data on this”


    Finally, Byte 7 looked up at her, put his keyboard aside, and stood up.


    He had seemed average height sitting down, but standing, he towered over her.


    When he stepped out of the direct sunlight, his features became clear to Dorothy. He was a young man


    with shining vigor.


    He was tall, easily over six feet, but skinny. His clothes hung loose on his frame, and he had a slouch


    that gave him a slightly rebellious


    air.


    He was not at all what Dorothy had expected from a top–tier hacker.


    Byte 7 ignored her gaze, inspected her hard drive, and frowned, “This thing’s ancient.”


    “Yeah, it’s almost five years old,” she confirmed


    He took a piece of gum from his pocket, popped it in his mouth, and casually asked, “So, what’s your


    offer?”


    Dorothy’s face lit up, “You can do it?”


    “Whether I take the job depends on what you’m offering.” He locked eyes with her for a few seconds


    and then suddenly smiled slyly “You’re quite pretty. Are you single?”
