Chapter 1628 Elementary Level Intelligence

Given the circumstances, Micah had no choice but to swallow his pride and ask her for help, carefully, "I can't move right now. I need your help. Could you please lend me a hand?"

"That's more like it," Riley said with a satisfied smirk. "Don't rush me. Let me finish my pork knuckle first."

Micah was speechless. After all this time, food was still Riley's top priority.

She had helped him with the computer for an hour before declaring she needed to eat. 

He had taken a nap, and when he woke up, she had already finished a whole pot of rice and was now gnawing on a pork knuckle.

Was she going to eat until the sun set?

Micah felt utterly frustrated, staring at the computer right in front of him but unable to move.

He tried to lift his hand, but it felt like it was nailed down, completely immobile.

The only parts of his body he could move were his head and neck, making it impossible to reach the computer.

After struggling for a while, all he managed to do was break out in a sweat.

"Alright, alright, I'll help you," Riley finally said, having finished her pork knuckle and washed her hands.

"Quick, open my email. The account info is saved on the webpage. Enter the password."

"What?"

"The one I told you about earlier."

"It's been hours. You don't expect me to remember, do you?"

"The password is..."

"Slow down. It's so long, how am I supposed to remember it?"

"Are you a goldfish? Do you have a seven-second memory?"

"Keep talking and I won't help you."

"Okay, okay, I'll say it slowly. You type it in slowly."

"One letter at a time."

"Got it!"

"By the way, this is a separate charge. I'll add it to the bill later, apart from the medical fees."

"You already want half of my assets, and now you want to charge more?"

"Why not go for six, seven, eight, or nine-tenths?"

"You're ruthless!"

"It's called rewarding hard work!"

"You're insatiable," Micah muttered through gritted teeth.

"What did you say?"

"Nothing, I said you're amazing."

"This password is so long. It's such a hassle. I keep getting it wrong. It's driving me crazy."

"When you go to Hillside Villa tonight, make sure to find that prescription. The sooner you cure me, the less trouble this will be."

"You think I don't want to? I searched that unconscious guy from head to toe and found nothing."

"Maybe Annika took it. They might have realized you were coming. Tonight, they might put the prescription on Andrew. Check again."

"You people are so complicated, always guessing and second-guessing."

"Then just take me back to Hillside Villa. That would be simpler."

"Dream on. If I take you back, where will I get my half of your assets? The Clemens Group is already in someone else's hands. Do you still have money to give me?"

"Glad you understand. Hurry up."

"Once I get the assets back, it'll all be my money!"

Micah was exasperated. How did it become her money?

"Say the password again, quickly!"

"Can you focus? It's only 14 letters. You've tried so many times and still can't get it right."

"Are you lecturing me?" Riley narrowed her eyes, her expression cold.

"No," Micah quickly conceded. "I'm lecturing myself for not explaining it clearly to you."

"One letter at a time, slowly."

"If I go too slow, the system will time out. It has anti-theft settings."

"Such a hassle."

Micah was about to explode. 

If he could move, if Riley's brain worked even a little better, if her intelligence was at least at an elementary school level, he wouldn't be in this mess.

Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
