Chapter 166: AI Alice Vs August Maijune 4
Aaron Saint was busy working in the office when he heard the door opening and looked up. He saw August Maijune by the door smiling and said ''you are here?''
''Yes, and I brought you coffee since you are working so hard to bring home money'' August Maijune said as she closed the door. She removed the cup of expresso and placed it on Aaron Saint's desk.
''Thanks. You said you wanted to talk about something over the phone. What is it?'' Aaron Saint asked. August Maijune had called him earlier to inform him she was coming over to the company to talk about something.
''I want to go back to school'' August Maijune sat on the chair across him and said.
''Really? When do you intend to start?'' Aaron Saint asked and closed the file on the table before looking at her.
''Are you not going to ask me why?''
August Maijune asked sceptically.
''August Maijune, going to school is not a bad thing and I knew you would one day think about it. Is good you want to go back to school. Have you decided on your major yet?'' Aaron Saint asked as he leaned against his chair sipping his coffee.
''Biochemistry. I want to be a perfumer'' August Maijune said.
''That's not bad, August Maijune. I am proud of you'' Aaron Saint said sincerely.
''Then, can you arrange for a tutor for me? I need to start studying for my high school exams before I can enrol into the university.
''I can tutor you myself'' Aaron Saint said and August Maijune looked at him shocked.
''You want to tutor me? Aaron Saint, are you sure that you can tutor me?'' August Maijune said and chuckled finding it ridiculous.
''I am a good tutor?'' Aaron Saint said back confidently.
''Okay, I am not going to argue with you on that but, I will really need a tutor that will not be you but a real tutor with a licence and I am not going to change my mind so end of discussion, Aaron Saint'' August Maijune said.
''Fine. I give up. I will find you a good female tutor'' Aaron Saint said.
''Thanks for understanding darling, now shall we go home? I need to start getting some things ready'' August Maijune said and stood up.
''Come here'' Aaron Saint said to her as he remained seated. August Maijune walked closer to him and he pulled her to sit on his laps.
''What are you doing?'' August Maijune said and tried to stand up but he wrapped his arms around her tightly and kissed her before saying.
''I am so proud of you, August Maijune'' he kissed her again before standing up.
''Even I am proud of myself'' August Maijune bragged. Aaron Saint's phone buzzed as they walked out of the office.
''Let me answer this call first'' Aaron Saint said, holding unto August Maijune's hand as he took the phone call with the free hand.
''Hello, Aaron Saint speaking'' Aaron Saint said over the phone and August Maijune looked at him. She noticed his facial expression changed and his pupils squirted slightly and raised up and down as he listened to the person on the other side.
''I understand. Find out where it was taken and let me know. Also, let this be between us for now. Thanks you, bye'' Aaron Saint hung up and looked at August Maijune.
''Did something happen?'' August Maijune asked and looked at him with her clear eyes.
''AI Alice is missing from the DNIS Building'' Aaron Saint told August Maijune.
''AI Alice? Wasn't it supposed to be destroyed the day my brother left? How did it suddenly go missing?'' August Maijune asked sceptically.
''We will find out soon from the investigations I asked them to do. Let's go home. Don't worry too much about it. I will take care of it''
''But, AI Alice is a dangerous AI. What if it falls into the wrong hands? I can't even begin to imagine the damage it could cause Aaron Saint'' August Maijune said worriedly. She sounded more like Maijune at that moment that Aaron Saint almost thought Maijune was back.
''I know, that is why I will find out who had the guts to take it from the DNIS building. Let's go home'' Aaron Saint said and walked away holding August Maijune's hand towards the elevator.
.....
Outside, they walked to Aaron Saint's car and he opened the door for August Maijune to enter before he went to the driver's seat and drove off. A black Porsche car parked at a distance came to view but Aaron Saint didn't pay attention to it as he drove away. The old man at the back of the car rolled down the window and looked at the car going away.
Su Chenli looked longingly at the car. He could only wait till the right time to separate the two from each other and then send August Maijune away to Suaw Island.
''Master'' his assistant got into the car and Su Chenli turned to face him.
''Master, AI Alice has been delivered successfully to Suaw Island. Shall we go for you to take a look or should I follow the car in front?'' Su Chenli's assistant asked.
''Chun, how long have you stay by my side?'' Su Chenli asked his assistant whose name was revealed to be Chun.
''Master, this is my 10th year with you since the day we met at the hospital orphanage'' Chun answered reverently.
''10 years. That is such a long time. The years have run fast indeed. Six years ago, when I first learnt of my granddaughter's existence, I was overjoyed. But that joy didn't last when Lorca told me she had passed away in the fire that took away my son and his wife. Six years later, I have finally discovered her existence but because I was busy, I couldn't meet her earlier and allowed that Mimi Garcia to mess with her. You might think I am a wicked old man for disclosing the medical report of August Maijune to the people who wanted her dead, but the truth is, I was testing her. To see how far she could go to safe herself. She wouldn't have been worthy of being a Su if she didn't overpower her enemies.
Aaron Saint must have known by now that AI Alice is missing and he will go to lengths to find out what happened to it. Make sure you tighten every loss ends and not let this be traced to us. August Maijune must not know about this until I have made all preparations ready for her to take over Suaw Research Centre'' Su Chenli said to Chun.
''Yes, Master'' Chun responded.
''Let's go home'' Su Chenli said and Chun nodded his head and drove away.
....
August Maijune went into the library as soon as they reach home. She brought down from the shelves all the books Mai had stored about perfumes and other things. She couldn't find a single book that could be helpful for her pre-tertiary studies.
Aaron Saint entered the library and saw August Maijune buried inside the books. In his hands was a bowl of fruits salad with milk on it.
''August, come and eat this. We can go and purchase the books you will need for your pre-tertiary tomorrow. I don't have a lot of work at the office and could spare some time. We will visit grandpa after that'' Aaron Saint said as he scoped the fruits into a spoon lowering it to her as she walked out of the pile of books.
''Really? I missed grandpa too'' August Maijune said as she munched on the fruits in her mouth. Aaron Saint took her hand and walked with her to the hall and they sat on the sofa.
''Eat some more'' Aaron Saint said as he fed her the fruit salad.
''You should eat some too'' August Maijune said as she took the spoon from Aaron Saint.
''I want to eat it this way'' Aaron Saint said and kissed her, sliding his tongue inside her mouth, he took the remainder of the fruits in her mouth and ate it.
''Gangster'' August Maijune said as she looked at him.
''Only for you'' Aaron Saint said and they laughed. Aaron Saint sat properly and pulled August Maijune on to his laps, he then opened his legs making her sit in the middle in between his legs as they ate, feeding each other with spoon and sometimes through their mouths.
Aaron Saint turned on the TV and they were airing an American series starring some famous actors.
''That is Maijune's favourite actor, Tom Cruise. He is a really good fighter. I guess that is why Maijune likes him'' August Maijune said and Aaron Saint asked.
''What about you? Who is your favourite actor?''
''En, I like Tom Cruise too, I also like Selena Gomez, I like this singer Taylor Swift, but overall, the person I like the most in the world is you, Aaron Saint'' August Maijune said and turned back looking at him.
''Such a sweet talker, let's do something after we finish watching this movie'' Aaron Saint said and Maijune nodded her head.
