GoodReadChapter 207
Alice remained silent. Ethan’s voice cthrough the phone.“Alice, don’t cto the hospital. You're
responsible for Luke and your other brother. You have no face to show yourself!” The secretary was frantic.
“Boss, you can’t say that!”
“Am |
| wrong? Who's responsible for
responsible for Luke being
Luke being in the emergency
room?”
“But it was the boss’s choice! He wanted to see Ms. Alice. It was his wish. You can’t stop him!” The secretary
pleaded, “Ms. Alice!”
“I never said I'd come. He just lost a lot of blood. He'll live,” Alice said. She wouldn't fall for this. She'd been
alone when she died in her past life, while her brothers were with Chloe.
Alice hung up. The secretary slumped, defeated.
Ethan stared at his phone, incredulous. She hung up? She won't even visit her brother?!”
“Boss, you told her not to come.”
“I was angry! She should come!”
The secretary sighed.“Boss, family shouldn't speak so harshly. You can be kinder.”
“Was | not kind enough?”

“Boss, you
face your enemies with composure. Why are you so harsh with Alice? Shouldn’t. family be more patient,
forgiving, and caring?”
The secretary didn’t understand. Luke understood now, but Alice was deeply hurt. It was too late to regret.
Ethan was speechless. He didn’t think he was wrong. Alice had done wrong; why should he apologize? Chloe
would never be like Alice.
Late at night, Luke was wheeled out of surgery, unconscious, murmuring Alice’s name.
Ethan was upset.“He’s still thinking about that ungrateful Alice?”
His assistant said, “Boss, the hacking stopped, but the stock price plummeted. Shareholders want
answers.”
“I know. Tomorrow.” Ethan looked at the secretary. “You met Mr. Yates in New York, right?”
“Yes.”
“Who's that man with Alice?”
“Alice’s high school nurse. He seems close to Mr. Yates.”
Ethan narrowed his eyes. Just a nurse? Did you check?”
“Yes. An ordinary nurse. Alice ran away with him. Mr. Yates helped hide her.”
Just an ordinary nurse? He'd been wrong. The Wilson family heir rarely socialized; it was a world he couldn't
access. The heir wouldn't work as a high school nurse. He probably just got lucky meeting Andrew Yates.
Ethan relaxed. Good.
Alice didn’t return to campus that weekend. She was at her apartment, preparing for her livestream. She found
men’s shoes at the entrance, angrily shoving them into a closet.
She wasn’t hungry. During her livestream, she showed off the new gcharacter. Someone mentioned Alice
Group's plummeting stock.
Alice said, “I have nothing to do with the Alices anymore.”
After the livestream, Alice was hungry. A knock came.
“Delivery.”
Alice opened the door.”l didn’t order anything.
“This is the address. Alice?”
Alice found this strange. Only three people knew her address: Jack, Andrew Yates, and Guoguo. A message from
Jack:“Remember to eat.”
Alice looked at the food, realizing it was from him. She replied, “I don’t need your delivery. | can order myself.”
I'm trying to comfort you.”
Alice smiled slightly, then suppressed it. She was hungry, and it was her favorite food. After eating, she ignored
his messages.
The next day, Alice woke up naturally; she was attending the gaming industry party. She texted Guoguo to meet
at her apartment.
A message popped up: Open the door. Lunch is here.”
Alice opened the door to find lunch. Her mood improved. She texted Jack, Thanks, Boss.”
“Not angry anymore?”
|
wasn’t angry.”

Jack smirked. Was that what she called not being angry?
He put down his phone. John Wilson shouted, “Brother! You're back! Why didn’t you call me?! Jack shoved him
away. Mrs. Wilson appeared. “John Wilson, stop bothering your brother!” “I just wanted to talk to him.” He
wanted to confirm his brother hadn’t agreed to his sister-in-law’s demands.
Mrs. Wilson said to John Wilson, “You have a party. Go.”
Jack asked John Wilson, “What kind of party?”
“A gathering. Cloud Battle's team will be there. My agent wants to sign their captain!” John Wilson hinted that
Alice would be there..
Mrs. Wilson asked, “The captain is very skilled?”
Jack warned John Wilson with a look. John Wilson scurried away. Mrs. Wilson sighed. “If he were half as composed
as you, I'd be blessed. The Garcias have asked when you'll have dinner with them.”
“Mom, I'm busy. Don’t arrange anything. It'll embarrass you.”
The butler
announced, “Sir, Grandma is waiting for you in the garden.” Jack went to the garden. His grandmother gestured
for him to ccloser. “Prune the roses.” The grandmother said, “I heard you met a girl in New York?”
Chapter 417
“Grandma, nothing's confirmed.”
“My grandson is handsome. You can get any girl you want.”
Jack hesitated, looking at the elderly woman. He gave a wry smile.“Grandma, she’s the girl from then.”
The old woman's cup fell to the floor...
