Abby looked down and immediately screamed in surprise. “Janet, why do you have a physical copy of Rose’s ‘Warm Blade’?” As soon as she finished speaking, the classmates around her instantly gathered and exclaimed in shock, “Really? Let me see!” Many students looked at the book in anticipation and excitement.
“Oh my God! This book even has Rose’s personal signature!”
“Really? Let me see if it’s real.”
As they spoke, another student pulled out another book with Rose’s signature and compared it to Abby’s book. “It’s real!”
“It really is her signature!”
“Oh my goodness! I’m so jealous!”
Turning to look at Janet in confusion, Abby asked, “Janet, where did you get this book from?”
Janet replied with a blank expression, “A friend gave it to me.”
Upon hearing, all of them said enviously, “Oh, I want a friend like that too!” Feeling touched and excited, Abby hugged Janet with tears in her eyes and coquettishly said, “Janet, you’re the best. Thank you so much!” Turns out that I still hold an important place in Janet’s heart.
Just then, Gordon had just returned to the classroom and saw Abby’s eyes were red but he didn’t know the reason. Then, he pulled out a book from his bag and placed it on Abby’s table. Abby immediately looked up at Gordon with a look of shock on her face.
Meeting her gaze, Gordon asked in a low voice, “What? Didn’t you say that you want this book?” Hearing this, the group of classmates that had dispersed gathered again and looked at Abby with envy. Abby nodded slowly in reply before she pulled out the copy that Janet had given her a moment ago. Seeing this, Gordon awkwardly reached out and took the book back without saying a word.
Looking at the book in Gordon’s hands, the group of classmates muttered jealousy, “I want one too!”
“People with the same social status as a Young Master Yaleman can probably get as many copies as they want.”
“I agree! I’m so jealous!”
Gordon looked up and casually threw the book to the side before saying coldly, “Whoever likes it can just take it.” Almost instantly, a few girls started fighting for the book. “I want it! Give it to me!” Abby turned around and glanced at them, feeling a little upset. I didn’t say that I don’t want it… Why did Gordon just give it to someone else…
Janet looked at the awkward two and grinned meaningfully to herself.

Meanwhile at Lowry Family’s Conglomerate, Mason’s subordinates were giving him a report about the goods they detained at Leamore Lane two days ago.
“Young Master Mason, we’ve gone through the goods in the truck one by one and made sure that there is no problem.”
Upon hearing that, the man on the sofa was silent for a moment and a sullen expression appeared on his face. Rubbing his temples in frustration, Mason thought to himself, It seems that I’ve been really sensitive lately. He pursed his lips tightly and with a cold expression he said, “If there’s nothing wrong, give them back to the owner.”
Mason’s subordinate immediately replied respectfully, “Understood.”
After the subordinate left, Sean, who was standing at the side, carefully asked, “Young Master Mason, we have misunderstood someone this time. Should we apologize?”
“Apologize?” Mason’s expression changed slightly and he glared coldly at Sean as he said, “Don’t you think that this person is the same person who crashed Black Rain’s system?”
Sean instantly tensed and he asked, “What do you mean?”
Mason explained, “The Black Rain system has been running for three years and nobody has been able to hack into it. But why did our system get hacked into and crash after this incident took place?”
Sean’s mind went blank for a moment before he quickly replied, “I understand now.”
Looking out the window, Mason said in a low voice, “Go and find out who the author is.”
“Yes, Young Master Mason!” After Sean left, Mason’s phone started ringing and it was a call from an unknown number. However, he still chose to answer it. Judging from the voice, the person on the other end was a middle-aged man and he respectfully asked, “Almighty Dark Shadow, are you free to join us at the Autumn Car Racing Tournament this Saturday?”
After hearing this, Mason was silent for a few beats before he replied, “Didn’t I already reject your invitation?”
“Oh! Well, this time we’re calling to invite you to be the judge. Will you do it?” the man from the other end of the phone asked, unwilling to give up.
