Chapter 385 - Aleksis' New Plan

When Aleksis, Lauriel, Terry, and Nicolae disappeared into the private room, they became the talk of Sky Bar. The four very attractive young people looked like they emerged from a novel and so many muffled sighs could be heard following their steps. They didn't realize how they attracted so much attention, all of them were busy thinking about the recent events and the fact that Aleksis was in danger.

They ate while talking about what happened. Nicolae mostly listened, more focused on fiddling with various networks on his laptop and gathering all the news from his informants.

An hour later he closed his laptop. Satisfaction could be seen from his face when he took his glass and finished his wine in one gulp.

"Found anything?" Aleksis asked attentively.

"Yeah. People won't call me Wolf if I can't collect the data I need in a short amount of time," Nicolae answered with a big smile. "They think they can cover their dirty tracks. But it just so happens that there have been several big cases in the past that I can connect to them. The police must be very happy to receive this much evidence to imprison many of the members of this little mafia group."

"You're awesome!" exclaimed Aleksis in admiration. "Can you teach me how to hack?"

"Of course. When you want to learn, just say so. I'll teach you."

Nicolae was very happy because his hacking ability managed to impress Aleksis.

"I only have one class tomorrow morning, I'll spare some time afterward to meet you."

"Eh ... do you really want to learn information technology?" Nicolae asked in puzzlement. "I thought you didn't like your major."

"It's not like that ... I randomly chose my course since I'm fine with anything as long as I could study in Singapore. But after seeing what you can do, I become interested in it and want to learn for real."

Terry just remembered that Nicolae was indeed Aleksis' senior in the Information Management department, but he also knew that his sister didn't care at all about her studies. The girl had studied personally with various great scientists in the world. She was very smart. She didn't need to come to class and study on campus like what she was now doing.

Terry wondered if Aleksis began to notice Nicolae as a man and was interested in getting to know him better. If that's the case, everyone would definitely feel happy for them.

Terry personally preferred Nicolae to be with Aleksis. That was despite Nicolae being his mortal enemy. He did not know what Prince Siegfried was like, but it was clear, if there was such a smart and kind man like Nicolae, not to mention he was also Lauriel's son, why would she pursue an ordinary human who was much older than her and would soon age and die?

Terry hoped Aleksis would recover her common sense soon.

"Uhm ... okay. I can teach you. I will come to the penthouse tomorrow," Nicolae couldn't contain his joy in his voice.

"Thank you!" Aleksis bobbed her head happily.

From the corner of her eye, she could see Lauriel's eyes hiding happiness because Aleksis was getting closer to Nicolae. Aleksis could only apologize secretly to her godfather.

'I'm sorry, Uncle Rory. If I had met Nico first, maybe I would have fallen in love with him ... Your son was amazing. But I've fallen in love with Alaric first and we're already married. I can't let my father take me home before my husband returns. I have to make all of you think that I like Nico ...'

She drank her wine then asked her glass for a refill. She was still upset from earlier. She had thought of a new plan to divert the attention of her family from 'Prince Siegfried'. She will pretend to approach Nicolae.

In a few days her father and mother will come to Singapore. She must be able to dispel their suspicion of Prince Siegfried ... otherwise they will definitely force her to come home.

"Oh my God, it's almost 11pm. We better go home now, tomorrow I have a lot of work," Terry said. He spread his arms and yawned widely. "Today is really very tiring."

All agreed with Terry. Ten minutes later they were back at the penthouse and Aleksis escorted Terry and Nicolae to the door while carrying her dog.

"Be careful on the road. See you tomorrow on campus."

"You get some rest too," Terry ruffled Aleksis's tidy hair and ran off to the elevator. His sister could only purse her lips in annoyance.

Aleksis entered her bedroom and turned on the music then dimmed the lights. She laid Little Prince Siegfried on his bed in the corner of the room then she threw herself on her bed. Aleksis took Takeshi's cellphone from her pocket and started to dial the only phone number there.

Alaric picked up the phone after the second ring.

"Hello Honey, why did you just call now? You slept so late ..." Alaric asked in a worried voice.

Aleksis giggled, delighted at Alaric's obvious worry over her. "Yes, I am about to sleep. There were a lot of terrible things happening here."

She then told him what initially caused the problem with Rosemary and how she had been very worried that something would happen with Terry. Moreover, Terry was her brother and she could not imagine how she would be very sad if she had to lose Terry.

"Your brother ..?" Alaric remembered some of the photos he had received this afternoon, when Aleksis was with two young men. He could guess that one of the men was Aleksis' brother, because their faces had similarities.

Hmmm ... a smile appeared on Alaric's face.

Now he understood why Aleksis was very friendly with the two young men. One was her brother, and the other was the son of her godfather ...

Now he can see how things were connected. He didn't need to worry about anything or feeling jealous ...
