Chapter 209 Learn from Kaleb’s Attitude

Brandon said helplessly, “I had the advantage of fully understanding their system, which allowed me to plant massive amounts of viruses to make their data unusable while ensuring a clean getaway. It’s not that I didn’t want to format it. I just couldn’t do it. But the hacker who attacked us this time was way too skilled. Direct infiltration, massive destruction, even modifying programs, and they did it all without leaving a trace. This is purely a gap in raw skill. There’s nothing we can do,”
Skyla’s expression soured.
Brandon said, “Please try to talk to your brother more.”
Skyla thought she had tried, but Zane wouldn’t listen. She hadn’t even been completely repaired. If Zane heard that, he’d only take it worse.
ed that Kaleb’s database had
Zane had competed and fought with Kaleb, and Zane had lost spectacularly. This was undoubtedly a slap in the face to her as well.
She’d been thoroughly humiliated. She hadn’t seen her enemy suffer. Kaleb hadn’t gotten worse as she’d expected. In the future, he’d probably be even more arrogant. Skyla couldn’t possibly be in a good mood.
Before Skyla left, she told Zane, “It is what it is. You’d better take care of yourself.”
Zane gritted his teeth. He often couldn’t understand Skyla either. “Aren’t you even a little bit upset?”
Skyla replied, “Of course I’m upset. But I’m not you. Even if I lose, I won’t let my enemies laugh at me. You could learn from Kaleb’s attitude. Even when he’s at a disadvantage, he’d still beat you up to blow off steam.”
Zane flushed with anger, his whole body trembling. “Y–you’re actually comparing me to Kaleb! In your eyes, I’m not even as good as Kaleb, is that it?”
Skyla said, “That’s not what I meant…”
Zane roared, “That’s exactly what you meant. You look down on me. I’m your brother. How can you look down on me? Are you even human?”
Skyla really wanted to say he couldn’t compare to Kaleb, but it would only provoke him more. She held back. “I misspoke. I apologize. You’re my brother. I’ll always be on your side.”
Zane’s emotions weren’t soothed by this statement at all. He pointed at the door. “Just leave!”
Skyla’s expression darkened instantly. She stopped‘ pretending. The look she gave Zane was harshness and disappointment, as if he were a complete and utter failure, her eyes showing embarrassed her.
Instead, Zane calmed down, watching Skyla’s cold, distant back as she left.
He let out a bitter laugh.
Skyla understood him, but didn’t he understand her just as well?

Skyla wanted everyone to revolve around her, to fawn over her and seek her attention. The moment anyone gave her a bad attitude, she’d turn on them instantly. That’s why she wanted to see everyone envy her, adore

her, and love her.
Skyla only had eyes for herself. She’d never cared about anyone else’s feelings.
What good sister? What comfort? It was all just an act. The moment he stopped being gratefid–the moment he got better because of you–why would she be concerned?

Zane really did want to beat Kaleb up, but he couldn’t win. If he went, he’d only suffer more and be even more humiliated.
Zane lay exhausted on the couch, taking out his phone and scrolling back and forth. Finally, he couldn’t help but call Juliet.
Juliet answered quickly. “What’s wrong, Zane?”
Hearing her voice, Zane’s eyes reddened.
He told her everything about today, full of grievance.
Juliet didn’t have Skyla’s harshness. Instead, she gently soothed his emotions, then said, “Good boy, if you’ve been humiliated, remember it well. Consider this a lesson learned.”
Zane was much more receptive to Juliet’s words. Without evidence proving Kaleb did it, he didn’t dare to call Troy for help. He really could only accept it. His voice choked up. “Okay, Juliet.”
Juliet said, “I’ll call Kaleb right now to ask. Give me a moment.”
Zane replied, “Okay! Thank you, Juliet!”
Juliet cautioned, “I might not get any real answers.”
“I know.” The fact that Juliet was willing to step up for him already warmed Zane’s heart, because if she didn’t care, there’d be no need to go that far.
But this time, Zane had truly lost spectacularly. Yet he couldn’t catch Kaleb on anything and could only swallow his pride.
If he hadn’t attacked first, he would’ve called the police.
What worried Zane most was that Kaleb had a technical genius on his side who could cause him such massive losses in such a short time. Zane was genuinely shaken. If he did anything else in the future, he’d really have to consider whether he could bear the cost of Kaleb’s retaliation.
Did this mean from now on he’d have to watch his step around Kaleb and couldn’t reall anymore?
Just thinking about it filled Zane with rage.
But this hacker attack had a powerful deterrent effect. Going forward, he truly wouldn’t dare to act rashly.
Zane hadn’t felt this stifled in a very long time. It was like having a plastic bag over his head. The air kept getting thinner and thinner, and he was suffocating more and more.
Zane punched the pillow on the couch to vent, but it still didn’t help much.
