Silas had never met Caleb Grant in person, but he’d heard enough stories to know he was a heavyweight in the investment world.

Jasmine just pouted. “Yes.”

Silas looked suspicious. “As far as I know, Caleb Grant graduated from Rivercrest University

The man had entered the finance department at RU with the third-highest score in the country.

Rivercrest University was a titan.

An elite institution where the students were known as “elite all-rounders.”

The computer science department was the pinnacle of competition, having won the International Collegiate Programming Contest eight times. Graduates from that department started at six-figure salaries.

A while back, an organizer called “Storm” had launched a dark web operation, taking down the largest child exploitation site on the net and leading to the arrest of its owners.

Rumor had it that the leader, “Storm,” was a computer science student from RU.

Silas had always admired that person and had even tried to track them down to recruit them for his firm. He’d come up empty.

If he could find that person, they would be the ultimate weapon for his company’s future.

Jasmine cast a casual glance at Silas, a mocking grin on her lips. “So?”

Silas pulled himself together. “You graduated from RU?”

“As my husband, you don’t even know where I went to college. Should I be upset?”

Silas was speechless.

What he knew about Jasmine could be written on a postage stamp.

He’d just wanted a compliant wife to fill a role; he’d never dreamed of actually getting to know her.

Silas’s eyes lit up. “Then do you know anyone from RU who goes by the name ‘Storm?”

Jasmine’s eyes flickered. “I’ve heard of them.”

Silas was suddenly interested. “Can you find them?”

“What do you want them for?”

“The person is a computer genius and a top-tier hacker. If I could get them into my company, I’d be unstoppable. My firm would dominate the Al market.”

Chapter 25 A Brutal Slap for Silas

Jasmine offered a faint smile. “True. She certainly has that kind of talent.”

Silas had completely forgotten his anger. “You sound like you know her. Can you help me make contact

“No.”

Silas’s face darkened. “You’re my wife. Don’t you give a damn about the company’s future?”

“I’m saying I’ve heard the name, but I don’t know the person.”

The light in Silas’s eyes vanished instantly.

“Waste of my time.”

Jasmine sneered inwardly.

Could he be any more transparent? Useful one second, trash the next.

Silas’s voice suddenly turned cold. “Did you think I wouldn’t show up? Is that why you were so bold with that man? No wonder you dressed up so much today.”

Jasmine froze.

She never imagined Silas could say something so disgusting.

She took a deep breath to steady herself.

“How exactly was I being ‘bold’?”

Silas looked at her with a dark, heavy gaze. “How much further were you planning to go? If I hadn’t shown up, were you going to find an excuse to not come home tonight?”

“Silas Vance.” Jasmine had reached her limit. “Keep your mouth clean.”

“Jasmine!” Silas roared back, refusing to back down. “Don’t you forget who you are!”

“And who am I?” Jasmine let out a cold laugh. “A wife whose husband looks down on her? A daughter-in- law whose family bullies her at every turn? Or a woman whose husband has a child with his sister-in-law and plays happy family while I’m supposed to keep my mouth shut?”

“So? You’re already looking for a replacement?”

Jasmine was so angry she couldn’t even speak.

They stared each other down for several agonizing seconds.

“Because I wouldn’t lend your family that money, you’re planning to cheat on me as revenge? Or did you just find a richer sugar daddy to bleed for the cash? Jasmine, do you have no shame-”

Slap!
