Phoebe fell silent.
Rose was indeed a master at disguising herself. If Phoebe hadn’t stumbled upon her little schemes by chance, she might never have realized Rose was a backstabber.
“So, what should we do now?” Phoebe asked.
“Nothing,” Summer answered with a smile. ” Everything stays the same. We don’t make any sudden moves. Considering how cunning Rose is, we have to strike at the right time to crush her at once. Otherwise, she’ll find a way to retaliate.”
“You’re right!” Phoebe quickly nodded. “The more critical the situation, the calmer we need to be.”
“Also, don’t confront her or try to warn her in any way,” Summer instructed firmly.
Phoebe had never been one to mince words when it came to Rose, often making cutting remarks or mocking her in front of Summer.
Summer was worried that Rose might once again target Phoebe in this lifetime. But fortunately, Phoebe was quick to catch on and nodded in agreement.
Summer couldn’t help but reflect on the tragic end

of her previous life. Much of it stemmed from her inability to trust others, which left her isolated and vulnerable.
In the end, her desperation had led her to make reckless decisions.
After Phoebe left, Summer returned to her desk with the chestnut cake.
Over the next two hours, the activity on the hacker website skyrocketed, reaching its highest peak in recent history. The hacker community was abuzz.
The underdog, who had always been at the bottom of the rankings, had suddenly begun challenging the top ten hackers one by one.
After effortlessly defeating the top six contenders, their total points surged and landed them straight in fourth place.
Such a phenomenon was unheard of, and hackers flocked online to witness the spectacle.
“Is this guy a wizard or a prodigy?”
“They fried the seventh–ranked guy’s entire system!”
“Is that a mouse avatar? How cute!”

“Weren’t they stuck in the bottom ranks for over a year? Have they been hiding their skills or just got mentored by some guru?”
The public chat exploded with messages as Summer’s superb performance in just two hours stunned everyone.
Finishing the last bite of her chestnut cake,
Summer was about to challenge the third–ranked hacker when a knock at the door interrupted her.
“What is it?” she called out.
“Ms. Hartford, the private tutors have arrived. Mrs. Hartford asked you to come meet them,” a maid replied from the other side of the door.
A cold smile tugged at Summer’s lips.
Kristen couldn’t care less whether she met the tutors or not. It was obvious that Rose was using Kristen’s name to summon her.
The duo sure wasn’t wasting any time. In her previous life, at least they’d waited three days before Anthony showed up. This time, they couldn’t even wait a single day.
“I’ll be right there,” Summer responded, then turned back to the chat window and typed, “That’s it for today. We’ll continue tomorrow.”
