Chapter 164
Alice thought, “Alright, you want to play this game? Fine!”
Alice coldly snorted, “You want evidence? Have a brain upgrade before starting to run your mouth.
“A bunch of asses!
“I want to beat you, but I’m afraid you’ll enjoy it!”
Alice went full throttle, engaging the haters in a brutal online verbal showdown, using many dirty words.
Alice’s livestream viewership exploded.

A particularly aggressive hater typed, “Alice, you’re so unhinged. Aren’t you afraid of ruining your image and losing fans?”
Alice took a sip of water.“From today on, my life motto is ‘Abandon all pretense of decency and embrace pure villainy!‘
“My persona is everything but virtue!”
They wanted to smear Alice, but Alice self–destructed first!
Alice shed all the pretense of decorum. What could the trolls do?
Alice wouldn’t fall into their trap or use David’s material as evidence!
Fans flooded the chat.“From today on, Alice is my idol.”
“Alice, well done! Don’t pamper the haters.”
“Alice has a sharp tongue! I love her.”
The haters were dumbfounded by Alice’s unexpected approach.
They had a strategy meeting, anticipating Alice’s counterarguments.
However, Alice didn’t react as they expected.
Her mocking declaration about herself rendered their attacks feeble.
Haters had seen self–justifying explanations, but never a self–sabotaging one!
After Alice’s rebuke, she calmly started her scheduled PvP livestream.
Many challenged her, and some even referenced David.
Alice annihilated them all, leaving no survivors.
But the PvP was limited to ten opponents.
Unfulfilled, Alice went to the game’s open world and announced in global chat, “Trolls, stop yapping online. Got guts? Let’s lvl! I’ll bash your brains out!”
Soon, challengers appeared.
Alice unleashed a killing spree, leaving a trail of defeated players in her wake.
Her chat exploded, “Alice’s knife is so sharp today! One down, one to go!”
“I get it now. She held back in the PvP before.”
“Alice deserves the top 1.”
After a massive kill streak, Alice was flagged by the game’s anti–cheat system and received a warning.
Alice looked at her screen.“That’s all for today. As for commentary, can I swear?”

“Goddess, no! A game moderator just warned you.”

Alice sighed, “OK, nothing more to say then. As for the cross–dressing pervert incident, I’m sure the police will have results soon. Bye, see you next week!”
Alice ended the livestream.
She saw a massive increase in followers and viewers.
The Garcia family brought Alice an unexpected boost in popularity.
Max watched Alice’s livestream, expecting her hired trolls to destroy Alice’s reputation.
But Alice outwitted them.
Max slammed her fist on the table in anger.“Damn it! Alice, you bitch.”
“Max, did you hire those trolls to attack Alice’s livestream?” her mother asked.
“Mom, I’m in this mess because of Alice! She hacked my phone!”
Max thought Alice, capable of locking down so many phones, could easily hack hers too!
Max blamed Alice for using those videos and photos as evidence, which ruined her life!
“Max, you’re out on bail. Don’t cause any more trouble. Your sister is negotiating an engagement with the Wilson family. If you create any scandal or go to jail, that engagement will be off.”
“Do you only care about Julia? Since she will marry into the Wilson family, taking down Alice should be easy!”
Max wondered, “Why does Alice dare to taunt me?”
“That’s not what I meant. Once Julia’s engagement is settled, you can deal with whoever you want. No one will stop
you.”
“That country bumpkin dares to be so arrogant! I’ll make her pay!”
Max couldn’t swallow her pride. She had always had it easy, onl
to be defeated by a
nobody!
She wouldn’t let this go.

The next day, Alice slept in.
She planned to go to the gym to box. After David’s incident, she became even more interested in boxing!
Before heading out, Alice received a message from Jack.“What are you going to do this weekend?”
While walking, she replied, “I signed up for a gym membership. I’m going to work out!”
Alice’s apartment was close to Harvard University. She hopped on a shared bike.
Her trainer said her stamina was lacking, so she needed more muscle and strength.
Before leaving, Alice glanced at her phone. Jack hadn’t replied.
She put her phone away and cycled to the gym.
Across the street, a luxury car was parked.
Jack watched Alice cycle away, ultimately not sending another message.
He wanted to ask her about the livestream and the haters.
But Alice handled it well, and she seemed fine this morning.
Alice seemed to not need him anymore. She grew fast, and she was smart.

Jack felt
…
disappointed.
Andrew said, “David has been dealt with. The Garcia family won’t have a chance to interfere.”
Jack looked away, his expression returning to normal.“Let’s go.”
The weekend ended.
Alice spent almost all her time at the gym, feeling invigorated.

When she returned to the dorm, she found a new dorm matron.
Meanwhile, Lisa wasn’t there, only Lana.
The school had released a statement about David, pending the police investigation.
Lana sighed, “Lisa was taken in for questioning. David spilled everything, including Lisa’s calls to him, plotting against you. There’s evidence!”
The school could have let Lisa off with a reprimand, but David implicated her!
Alice didn’t comment.
Lisa had brought this upon herself.
On Monday morning, there were classes.
At the classroom entrance, Alice was stopped by a middle–aged couple.
“You’re Alice, right?”
Alice recognized them as Lisa’s parents. She had met them at the beginning of the semester.
Alice nodded.“Yes.”
The woman raised her hand and slapped Alice.“You ruined my daughter’s life!”
