All Too Late

Chapter 297 Be Alone

A line of words appeared on Clarissa’s computer screen: Little girl, if you dare to act rashly, I will delete everything on your computer.

Clarissa went ballistic.

She immediately typed: I’d like to see you try. If you delete my stuff, I’ll come after what you hold dear!

She had painstakingly saved a lot of anime and other files. If someone messed with that, there was going to be hell to pay.

Unknown: I hold nothing dear. Unless… you want to fill that position for me?

Clarissa gritted her teeth and responded with: You wish! What are you trying to do, hacking into my surveillance system? Who are you?

Unknown: What a greedy little girl with so many questions. I’m not going to answer them all at once. However, I will answer one question. If you tell your parents, then I’m not going to have fun with you anymore.

Clarissa was infuriated.

It was the first time she had met an opponent like this.

Clarissa: Fine!

Son of a b*tch! I need to catch this person.

Unknown: I will answer your first question. You asked what my intentions are, yes? I just liked how you decorated the place and wanted to take a look.

Clarissa sneered. Like hell I’d believe that!

Clarissa: I won’t tell my parents, but I need to know who you are.

Unknown: What a greedy little girl. I’ll let you know tomorrow.

After that message was sent, the unknown hacker went offline.

Clarissa’s computer then returned to normal.

She gritted her teeth.

What a horrible person that was! I need to be prepared tomorrow to expose them!

In Jadeborough, at Florinia Manor, Samuel was having a conversation with Leonard.

“Could you be any more bothersome?” he asked flatly.

“I was caught by a little girl and I didn’t want to lose,” Leonard complained. “I just wanted to tease her.”

“You really are bothersome.” Richard narrowed his eyes. “Mr. Macari asked you to keep tabs on the Watsons, but instead, you’ve decided to stare at little girls. How shameless of you.”

Leonard snorted disdainfully. “And I suppose you’re upright? Don’t think I don’t know that you’re using Kathleen as an excuse to get close to Gemma.”
