?<strong>Chapter 613:</strong>


    As she ran her fingers over the sleek surface, nothing about it seemed out of ce. However, when she forcibly pushed the door open, a sh of blue light swept overhead, blinding her for a split second.


    Then, the sound of a piercing rm shattered the silence, echoing through the entire VIP area.


    “Warning! Warning! Intruder detected! All units, assemble immediately!”


    Red lights flickered to life and shed as every security member snapped to attention. The rm red in her ears, relentless and shrill.


    “Wha… what intruder…?” Mny found herself backing away instinctively, but the lights and noise didn’t stop — they continued to pulse with an unforgiving rhythm. The crowd, once eager to take their turn, fell silent.


    What had been excitement now twisted into a thick silence, each person weighed down by the sudden, ufortable tension.


    Then, with calm determination, Allison stepped forward, her movements deliberate as she approached the scanner. The blue light shed again, and just like that, the rm fell silent.


    A collective sigh escaped the crowd as the oppressive noise faded atst.


    Sighing in relief, they looked at Allison with even greater astonishment.


    “Wow,” someonemented. “That’s a privilege only the person in charge gets!”


    “Look, Allison’s ID has been activated!”


    “I’ve never seen this vi open like this before, not once in all my years.”


    The whispers grew, but Mny could barely hear them as she stood there, deeply dumbfounded.


    “How could this be possible…” Mny’s pulse quickened.


    The moment Allison stood before the sleek vi and used an iris scan to open the door, any lingering doubts evaporated. With a soft click, the vi’s door swung open, and a weing voice greeted them. “Wee home, Ms. rke!”


    The AI’s words echoed through the stunned silence, leaving everyone rooted in ce, their gazes locked on Allison.


    “No way! Ms. rke really owns Sunset Hill? So young and already worth hundreds of millions — it’s hard to believe!”


    “Ten years ago, some people already owned a hill, while I was still building sandcastles. Guess it’s true some people are born with a silver spoon.”


    “I don’t even know what to say — the gap between us is just staggering!”


    “And Ms. rke, she’s so gracious! After we doubted her for so long, she’s still willing to let us in and share her knowledge. They say the wealthy are generous — guess it’s true!”


    Thepliments flowed, mingling with astonishment and admiration.


    Among them, Lindy stared, her shock slowly giving way to a smoldering anger as she watched Allison pass the iris scan with ease.
