Chapter 1246 Piece of Cake

North responded, "Let me take a look."

He turned around and swiftly began operating the computer with his tiny fingers. Alex and Eugene, growing increasingly impatient, also entered the room.

All eyes were fixed on the young prodigy, and they were filled with admiration, satisfaction, and astonishment.

He shone like a brilliant star as his fingers began dancing across the keyboard with lightning speed. His expression was solemn and focused, devoid of any childishness. At that moment, he resembled a warrior. Alex was left speechless as his eyes fixated on North.

While he knew that North was skilled with computers, having heard his friend boast about it countless times, seeing it firsthand made a world of difference. Alex himself had technical staff in his company and was not completely clueless about the field, but even without considering North's extraordinary abilities, just observing the speed at which his tiny fingers tapped on the keyboard was enough to make Alex take notice.

It was simply inconceivable for a child to possess such talent. North was a phenomenon.

However, what amazed Alex even more was yet to come. As soon as North hit the enter key, the screen illuminated with rapidly changing lines of code, which eventually transformed into surveillance footage of the hospital corridor.

Almost unable to believe his eyes, Alex exclaimed, "North, you recovered it?"

North coolly replied, "It's a piece of cake."

Overjoyed, Alex exclaimed, "My goodness, North, you've saved me a lot of trouble!"

North proudly waved his hand, saying, "I did you a favor because of Aunt Jewel. After all, I'm waiting for you to become my uncle."

Alex didn't mind the teasing from the young prodigy. He eagerly responded, "Thanks, my great nephew!"

Overwhelmed with excitement, he couldn't help but give North a tight hug.

Alex finally understood why Eugene kept showing off the boy's skills. If it were him, he would also show them off. After all, he was going to be a future god-uncle, and he wanted to flaunt it in front of everyone.

Looking at North, who was still busy with the computer, Alex said, "Tell me, what do you want? I'll buy it for you."

North, focused on the computer screen, displayed mature concern. "Just take care of yourself and my Aunt Jewel."

Alex was touched by North's words. "Just for saying that, I will have a daughter with Jewel and let you marry her when you grow up. We'll become even closer relatives."

North's face darkened. He didn't want that. When he grew up, he wanted to find Dora.

However, he couldn't say that aloud, so the words were swallowed back at the last moment. His expression was a mix of disdain and speechlessness.

Eugene naturally understood what was going on in the young prodigy's mind. Thus, he didn't hold back and spoke bluntly to Alex. "You want to give my son your daughter as a wife? Do you think I want to become your in-laws?"

Alex, glancing back at Eugene, asked, "What's wrong? Don't you want to?"

Eugene didn't mince his words. "No."

"Why?"

Eugene replied, "Because you're an unreliable father."

Perhaps it was due to the surveillance footage being recovered, Alex's mood had improved significantly and he was now willing to banter with Eugene. "Why am I unreliable? I have the looks and the money. Besides, I'm loyal and devoted." NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

Eugene glanced at him coldly. "I don't see any of that."

Alex choked with anger for a moment but then laughed. "You don't want to be my in-law? But your sons might think otherwise. Who knows, maybe all four of your sons will like my daughter."

Eugene stared at him and retorted, "Dream on!"

Alex sneered, "Even if my daughter can't win over all four of your sons, she can still capture the heart of one of them, right? Get ready with the betrothal gift!"

Eugene looked disgusted. "I'll wait for you to actually have a daughter first."

As the conversation progressed, Olivia couldn't help but chime in with the same disdainful expression as Eugene. "You should focus on pursuing your girlfriend first. You're already thinking so far ahead! You haven't even started a family, and you're already coveting my son?"

Alex was speechless.

"That's right. I should save my girlfriend first," he said, looking at North, who was still busy downloading the surveillance footage. "They probably never imagined that we would be able to recover the footage, right?"
